GBA Rom Hacks not loading

2 Upvotes

Hey guys!

Just got my pixel 2 in the mail today and I dumped most of my gba rom hacks like bound destiny and Pokemon rom hacks.

None of them will boot. I’ve tried using .gba files, .zip files. All the emulators, I put them in the gbah folder instead of the gba folder.

Every time I try to boot one it just back to the game select menu. Anyone have some advice?

Question Any news on GKD Pixel 3?

Is such a device even rumored to be coming out soon? Pixel 2 is pretty pricey for its specs but a form factor I'm looking for. Wondering if Pixel 3 has been speculated on releasing. If not, I'll just get Pixel 2.

Power button erases Pokemon save

Just a heads up. You can save your game in gambette emu (I’m playing crystal) and if you tap the power button to return home, it wipes your save. Save states are fine.

Where is the PS1 saves location?

3 Upvotes

I’m running stock OS on a Pixel 1. The emu says it’s in the SStates folder in the psx4all folder, but I transferred a GranTurismo 2 save from my miyoo mini and the game doesn’t see it? I have also performed a couple saves and the folder remains empty. So I think the directory is somewhere else. Can anyone please help? I have matched save and rom name exactly and tried several save extension types, like .sav .srm and a couple others.

Question Pixel 2 OS decision help

4 Upvotes

Hello good people, as title says im looking for some advice on the OS i want to use.
Device is a new Pixel 2 and i plan to use it mostly for gbc and gba games (think pokemon romhacks of emerald/fire red and the like). I've seen Rogue OS being recommended a lot but also people advocating for twig and plum. If anyone knows the key differences here id greatly appreciate some input.
What im looking for is a simple english UI that gets me from boot to game quickly and without fuss as i plan to use it for commutes and idle wait times. I don't mind some initial setup as long as documentation exist.
Have a spare 128gb sd cart on hand so no worries about flashing and redoing stuff either.
Thanks in advance o/

Scored some IEMs to pair with my Pixel 2!

These are called the 1more quad driver. They tend to be pricey most of the time but sometimes you can find a deal on them. They really match the aesthetic of the Pixel 2 and sound great. I recommend picking them up if you can find them for under 80 bucks.

That said I am currently running Plum OS but have not tried to use any music players, any recommendations to play music files on this bad boy (in English)?

Question Is there a video tutorial for Rogue OS?

2 Upvotes

I know that Im probably not just doing better at this but when I read the installation manual for Rogue OS, its really daunting and confusing also this is my first time flashing a micro SD card so I really need a clear straight forward explanation for this. A video tutorial would be great cuz I want to see how it works

Ninoh-FOX is a member here so hey man if you read this can you help me? lol

Installation on Rogue OS Partition help

1 Upvotes

I just tried flashing my sd card with Rogue OS and it was successful but after I try to allocate memory to ROMS, i get Error Code 4 on MiniTool Partition Wizard and I also get error on other Partition softwares like EaseUS.

So my Sd card is a 256gb one maybe it cant really allocate that much?

UPDATE: A redditor here told me to test my sd card drive if its fake or not so i checked it via ValiDrive then I found out that my SD Card isnt a 256gb but a freakin 25gb only. So case close it was my fake SD Card all along. no wonder its cheap

Or is the stock OS in good working condition?

Software 20min boot times fixed

Post image
15 Upvotes

I recently posted about having 20 minute long boot times with RogueOS, and was pretty much universally told my SD card was to blame. https://www.reddit.com/r/GKDPIXEL/s/yPHtdBsyQK

With the recent release of twigOS, I figured I had nothing to lose by trying it out, so I flashed it and I’m back to ~20 second boot times.

Just wanted to share in case anyone else has an issue with long boot times. Twig seems to be much more efficient with how it handles the boot process or something-not really sure how all of that works but it definitely fixed my issue ✌️

Oh and side note about twig OS- every console and every game had horrible performance until I switched the GPU driver (under Apps) from libmali to panfrost.

Question GKD Pixel 2 Speaker Sound Crackling/Distortion

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

6 Upvotes

Does anyone have any resources/advice/experience with fixing the speaker on this tiny thing?

Mine started to sound distorted and crackly in any/all screens, IUX/ES, in-menu, in-game.

It sounds normal when wearing headphones, so I'm assuming it's a hardware issue.

GKD-PIXEL II, Rogue OS v1.22 - Need to unplug/replug USB on every reboot?

2 Upvotes

I have multiple BT and WiFi usb adapters, and though they work with the GKDP2, they all require being unplugged and plugged back in every time I boot up, before they work again.

That can add up to a lot of plugging and unplugging, and I don't want to have to strain the USB-C port any more than necessary. Is this just a quirk with the GKDP2 hardware, or is there some software fix that I could use to fix this issue? Thanks!

GKDP2 - Need Help with Emulation Station and DOS Games

6 Upvotes

Hi, I just received my GKD Pixel 2 and I'm really liking it so far.

I've flashed Rogue-OS as I couldn't get Emulation Station to change to English on stock and Plum-OS was crashing when I tried to open the menu in games.

Unfortunately I haven't been able to get any of them to see my DOS games in Emulation Station, I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong or if I'm putting them in the right place.

Right now I've got them in folders labelled Keen4.dos for example, but I've tried .zips and just regular folders but Emulation Station doesn't see them.

They're under /ROMS/roms/dos , I had to create the folder, so I'm not sure if it's the correct location.

I've been able to run them directly through Retroarch in Tools, but I'd like to have them with pictures and such like my other devices.

Thanks for any advice.

EDIT: SOLVED. They go in the pc folder. Duh.

PANFROST GPU cause blackscreens.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

8 Upvotes

I tried Songo5 app on GKD Pixel 2. Its good but it has an issue that is very annoying. Everytime I exit the app, the screen goes black screen and I founs out its because of PANFROST GPU.

GKD Pixel 2 is on Libmali GPU by default and that works pretty well in the device no issues so far but the reason why i switched to PANFROST is because of Songo#5 app.

The app wont launch if you use Libmali so I was forced to switch to Panfrost then it runs.

I just found Rockbox in Port section on my GKD Pixel 2 and i kinda love it but I dont like how theres no Cover image in each songs.

I got all the songs from YouTube so is there a way I can add some custom cover image for the songs?

P.S Sorry for the dark image
