NetherSX2-classic is a modified continuation of AetherSX2 3668, a PlayStation 2 emulator for Android, with the NetherSX2 anti-tampering hack applied. It fixes RetroAchievements notifications, exposes more global settings, updates GameDB and controller/widescreen patches, and resigns the APK to prevent unwanted Play Store auto-updates.
Use cases

- run ps2 emulator with retroachievements support
- replace aethersx2 with an ad-free maintained fork
- get updated widescreen and no-interlace patches for ps2 games
- improve controller support for ps2 emulation on android
- prevent play store from overwriting my emulator with an older version
When to choose
- you want a maintained AetherSX2-based PS2 emulator on Android with RetroAchievements and online play
- you want more emulator settings and up-to-date compatibility patches
- you want an ad-free alternative to AetherSX2 3036/4248
When to avoid
- you need PS2 emulation on desktop platforms like Windows, Linux, or macOS (use PCSX2)
- you prefer official upstream support or don't want sideloading APKs
- you need iOS or non-ARM64 device support
