Description

Research direction

Start by reproducing the PPSSPP core launch failure on the reported Shield Tablet running Android 7.0 and ARMv7, using the supplied RetroArch 1.16.0 and nightly details. Inspect the startup log, including the critical-error behavior and configuration messages; the issue is resolved when PPSSPP games launch without closing on the affected device.
