The problem with my 35XX was indeed a low battery (could have sworn it was charged; I guess my son sneaked a few games in!) Got Garlic installed and working fine... ...for everything except PS1. I've tried putting the right bios (scph5501.bin) in the bios folder and the PS1 ROMs folder, but no joy. Either I don't get a PS1 option at all, or the only thing it will let me load is the bios itself, not games.  Edit: oh, it's folder-level specific, I see - no subfolders. Got it. Edit 2: kinda sucks that if a ROM has multiple .bin files, each one shows up as a separate item in the menu. Might have to find/make .chd files so it doesn't get unmanageable.

That sounds to me like the games you're putting in the PS1 ROMs folder are not the right type/extension. Are they .iso, bin/cue, chd, or something else? You might want to check documentation for GarlicOS to see what format it expects to find your PS1 games in.

You can use chd, pbp, bin/cue, img, mdf, toc, cbn, m3u, or ccd. Make sure they are in the folder labeled "PS" and the file extension must be lowercase. The bios just goes in the catch-all bios folder. If you have Game.CHD, for example, it won't work. Needs to be named Game.chd.

This is for OnionOS (miyoo mini), but also applies to GarlicOS (rg35xx). It is a list of each supported system and lists supported extensions, directories, and sometimes quirks. Edit: ^ probably this. Also why phantasy star online 2 runs like rear end on the Steam Deck, I believe.

Odin 2's SOC is apparently a Snapdragon 870, that's not a small upgrade from what I can tell looking at the specs.

Then the only other time I had that was when launching games for one of the systems that require a BIOS without one. But there's only a handful of those.

And I had the bios files for sega cd and all that, but it wouldnt run snes. So I put in my new 256gb card, formatted it in fat 32, put the onion files on, put it in the mini plus fired it up and installed - everything A-OK. Put it back in the computer to drop the roms and bios files, and then it starts freaking out on me saying the sd card has a problem. Now it won't format that card and everything is all gone to hell with it, but I think it has more to do with Parallels than it does anything else. I'll try breaking out a real windows pc later on and seeing if it will reformat the sd card because neither macos or my virtual windows 10 install will.

anything over 64 gb (maybe 32?) and macos is like "yeah fat32 is not a thing". So irritating. You have to use a 3rd party formatter.

I have it installed too however, I did it in on one of my windows laptops and every time I try to take that sd card back into macos to drop the files on it, it says theres a problem writing to the card with a gba file (bios folder maybe) and it locks up. I think I got a bad SD card from amazon. I just went back and used diskpart to raze it, reformatted it, and now im copying onion back onto it. For science, I took my 512 gb card, wiped it and reinstalled onion and it works perfectly now.

Windows is the one that won’t let you do FAT32 above 32GB Mac has other problems like the invisible spotlight files that mess with formatting sometimes and gives some devices trouble unless you run the terminal commands to delete all of the ._ files

which version of macos? I'm still on Big Sur, so maybe it's something that got fixed after that.

Maybe format it for some other project. It's hazy in my brain. For what it's worth, onion is installing on the 256gb card. Now, if it will work once i put it back into the windows pc thats the question. It kept throwing errors last time that there was something wrong with it even though disk check showed it was fine. Double edit: So now that I burned it to the ground and redid it, it works. I copied all the roms and whatnot from the mac to the windows laptop via flash drive and dumped them on there, transferred it that way, no issues now. When I did it all the first time on this 256gb card it freaked out and kept saying there were problems with my card and it would not run through first aid on the mac side, it just kept having problems. I was about to say it's all good in the hood, but then I put the sd card back into the mac and it shows the bios folder (where the problems seem to be coming from) as the transparent, ethereal folder as if it's an incomplete transfer. I put the flash drive back in to try copying the bios folder to that and it's seriously choking the system and it wants to take 26 minutes to do a 600mb file transfer which tells me something is super off with this bios folder (from the original miyoo mini plus sd card, per RGC's instructions) otter fucked around with this message at 22:10 on Aug 2, 2023 |

It’s not out of the ordinary for the bios files to take a long time to copy over since it’s a ton of small files and not just a few big ones. I’d just let it try and complete. Also are these error messages you’re seeing just the OS complaining about a corrupt SD card or something along those lines? That’s also normal for these things due to separate Linux partitions so you can just ignore them.

That’s also normal for these things due to separate Linux partitions so you can just ignore them. It was a repeated error that it couldn’t read or write to the area. After that it freezes up and then the Mac won’t detect the disk anymore. So I have to flatten it and start again when I get back home. It’s definitely odd.

Got my Temu MM+ today and it works fine, but it seems to have stopped updating the rom list for each console? I'm adding new roms and they don't show up in the console's list of games. It worked fine at first. I'm using the latest OnionOS and I swapped out the microSD the console came with, I'm using a 32GB microSD that I've personally verified works and is legit. After I installed OnionOS Windows started giving me its "we found an error on your SD card" message but while having Windows do its scan seems to have stopped the error message it hasn't fixed the problem I'm actually having. How can I get the MM+ to recognize new games I'm putting on the microSD? E: OK, pressing Select on the console allows me to refresh the game list manually, that solves the main problem. Now to figure out why the thing won't recognize .m3u files for multi-disc games. Commander Keene fucked around with this message at 08:32 on Aug 5, 2023 |

With the 256 it continues to have issues and I took the card back to windows 10 and did a format, error checked it and no issues. Still won’t show up right on the Mac (shows up in disk utility for a partial second and blips away) but failed a formatting in windows with the same kind of error that MacOS gives so I’m sure it’s a bad card I have.

I don't think that's happening right now tbh given that Retroid have effectively rereleased the 3+ twice now with the metal edition and Flip. The only big power handheld even rumoured right now is the Odin 2 which isn't going to be $150.
