Droid4X Overview

Once you install the emulator, you will see two icons on desktop: Droid4X and Droid4X Multi Manager.

The Multi Manager app is designed to run multi-instances of the emulator. If you want to run more than one instances of the app player, you can use Multi Manager app.

After successful loading, the home screen will appear.

SysFolder is actually a folder containing system apps for startup. It includes the following apps:

• Play Store
• SuperSU

Though this guide does not cover most topics, it helps getting started quickly.

Droid4X Toolbar / menu

Just like any other typical Android emulator (BlueStacks, NOXPlayer, LDPlayer, etc.) Droid4X also has a toolbar. But unlike other emulators, it has only a few items.

• Joystick simulation: Connect a joystick or gamepad to emulator.
• Shake it: Produce a device shake effect.
• Print screen: Capture a screenshot.
• GPS simulation: Set a virtual location to unlock some games with country restrictions.
• Keys simulation: Set a keymap to generate touch effects by pressing specific keys on keyboad.
• Full screen: Show the emulator on full screen view

Top menu

The most prominent area of the home screen is its top bar. This bar looks like tabs and consists of three options:

• Recommend: Shows some message and sometimes feedback.
• Desktop: This is the home screen, default.
• AppStore: Takes you to the Google Play Store.

Droid4X Settings

You can access Settings from the top menu gear icon.

Droid4X Settings is divided into three main sections:

• Basic Settings
• Other Settings
• Close Options

Let’s explore each section one by one.

Basic Settings

This section has resolution settings, custom resolution with DPI value and volume controls. You can either select a pre-defined resolution or set a custom resolution.

The available standard resolutions are:

• 1280 x 720 (Landscape)
• 720 x 1280 (Portrait)
• 1440 x 900 (Landscape)
• 900 x 1440 (Portrait)
• 1920 x 1080 (Landscape)
• 1080 x 1920 (Portrait)

These pre-defined resolution values may vary for every computer depending on GPU or graphics card capacity.

In custom resolution, you can enter and set any resolution as well as DPI value. We don’t recommend playing with custom resolution unless you know how to handle things if went wrong.

Please do remember that the new resolution settings will only take effect after a reboot of emulator. It means once you set a new resolution, you must restart the Droid4X emulator. You can restart the emulator either using Restart button at the top of Basic Settings or close the emulator and then start it manually.

Besides resolution settings, there is a volume section at the bottom with volume increase and volume decrease buttons. And you already know how to use volume up and low buttons.

Other Settings

The strangest thing in this settings is user login. At the top of the settings you will see login and register buttons. Pressing the login buttons asks to use ‘haimawan’ user account. The register buttons takes you to haimawan website that found not working during test. We recommend not to use this login option unless you understand how to proceed. After all, this sign in is optional and not required at all.

Now let’s proceed to other options. There are two sections:

Optimized Settings

You can allocate resources in optimized settings section. You can decide how much processor power, CPU cores and memory should be allocated for the emulator. There are three optimization options:

• CPU: Allocate number of CPU cores (the numbers depend on architecture of your computer CPU).
• Memory: Allocate the amount of RAM memory for the emulator.
• Language: Select either EN (English) or CN (Chinese) language for the Droid4X Android emulator.

You may allocate any available number or CPU cores and RAM memory, however, we recommend don’t exceed the half power in order to have a smoother experience. It means if you have 4 core in CPU and 4GB of RAM installed on your computer, you should not allocate more than 2 CPU cores and no more than 2GB RAM. If it doesn’t fulfill your requirements, at least do not use full resources and keep below the last value. Otherwise you may experience severe lags and the emulator may crash or slow down the other programs running on the computer.

After settings values, don’t forget to press Save button, or Reset button if you want to revert back the default values.

Other Functions

This section only has two button:

Share folder: Select and set the shared folder for emulator.

APK install: Locate and install an app or game from APK file that you already have downloaded on your computer.

Close Options

Here, you can set a hot key to close the emulator and select close options. There are only two closing options:

Select Hot Key: Choose a hot key to instantly close the Droid4X emulator without the hassle of pressing close button with your mouse. Ctrl+Alt are mandatory keys and you can just click in the third blank box and press a key on your keyboard to set that key as hot key. For example, you press Q key as a hot key. Now when you press the key combination of Ctrl+Alt+Q keys, the emulator will exit.

Select Close Options: Choose either the Droid4X emulator minimize to to tray icon in system tray or exit instantly when you press the close button (or press hot keys).

Help icon

Besides the Settings icon, there is a help icon. Pressing it will open a text box where you can ask for help regarding any complicated issue or send your feedback to the official support team.

Key Simulation in Droid4X

The feature of key simulation is also known as keymapping or keyboard mapping.

The key simulation is a kind of technique that enables users to click on the game tap area on the screen, then pressing a key and then only press that specific key to produce the touch effect on that specific area of screen, instead of tapping in real.
