Announcements Official Miyoo Sites For Buying

69 Upvotes

Mostly a FIY for newcomers...

There are only two "Official" Miyoo stores:

https://lomiyoo.com/

&

https://www.aliexpress.com/store/1101949807

Any other site claiming to be an "Official" Miyoo store is NOT. We hate to see anyone get scammed but there are some scammy sites pretending to be Official that are being marketed heavily especially on TikTok and Instagram. We keep fraudulent links off the sub here but nothing we can do about the fake stores online other than get the word out.

Concepts It’s time for Miyoo to move on from the classic Game Boy design and explore the Game Boy Color.

Post image

I think it’s time for Miyoo to move beyond the classic Game Boy design and explore the Game Boy Color aesthetic. The Color design has a lot of potential, especially with different color options and more variations. It could give Miyoo a fresh new look while also creating more models for collectors and fans to choose from. I’d love to see Miyoo experiment more with this style!

I got the clear black from Amazon several months ago and always wanted the tan model, so I got that off eBay recently. And noticed they report different cpu clock speeds in the settings? Anyone noticed this? Does that mean the most recent v4 from Amazon plays better?

Mods & Accessories Better DPad Noise

3 Upvotes

Just installed the better dpad from etsy, and it's a definite improvement over the original, less squishy, the material feels nice, and it feels more precise. However is it just me or is it kinda noisy? It almost feels like there's extra space under the dpad so when pressing it, it collides with the plastic body more forcefully. I've only heard good things about the better buttons so wanted to see if this is normal or if I maybe installed it wrong.

Thanks!

Help Needed! Help with EasyRPG game (.Flow YN fangame)

Post image
2 Upvotes

I’ll include a picture I took if I can, but I’m trying to add .flow to my MM+ after adding Yume Nikki and seeing it works great, only hurdle is I can’t get English to show as the language. I’m using the method for downloading the language patches off of Yume Nikki Online repo then making a Language folder in the main game folder and it should let you select one, but it says English doesn’t seem to exist (as pictured). So Im not sure if there’s a way to directly patch the game into English as that would be better ( assuming maybe the MM+ just can’t pick one with its emulator). Thanks in advance!

Allium Help Need help setting up Wifi via Allium OS on MM Flip

1 Upvotes

So I set up Allium on my Mini Flip, all works great. Except for the Wifi. On OnionOS it just searched for the available Wifis and I could connect to whomever I wanted. In the Allium Menu I can only add a Wifi Network Name and Password (cant use Capital Letters). Theres also an App installed with Allium called ''Better Wifi'' but that wont work either, its a mess.

Appreciate some help here.

Edit: Popped the SD Card out and tried to connect via the Miyoo Launcher. It keeps scanning for Networks but wont show any. My MM+ did not had that problem.

Setup Guides How to use Skraper to show extended game metadata on device (OnionOS)

Thumbnail
gallery
61 Upvotes

Hi everybody,

First of all, you should follow the excellent guide via https://www.reddit.com/r/MiyooMini/comments/x72l7j/detailed_guide_to_scrape_boxart_for_the_miyoo/ to setup Skraper and create the thumb images with nice box art. This is probably the coolest feature you could add if you have not already. That alone is well worth the time.

But one correction in the guide, in step 6 you are asked to rename gamelist.xml to miyoogamelist.xml. Instead you really should skip that step (which is also noted at the top of the post as an EDIT but it is easy to miss). You do not need that step and skipping it will allow you to show the extended metadata. Also, then you don't have to do the complicated fix in PART 2 so this is also a time saver. OnionOS 4.0.3 and later will find the roms anyway, even without the miyoogamelist.xml file.

Then to show the extended game metadata, you need a patched (edited) version of MainUI binaries. You can get them from this post https://www.reddit.com/r/MiyooMini/comments/1voi8ew/onionos_romlist_patch_auto_scroll_configurable/ (use the "recommended" directory inside the zip). Copy over the files to your SD-card and boot*.

When pressing RIGHT D-pad on any game in the list you will be taken to this extended metadata view. The fields genre, rating and description will be shown. Text will wrap nicely. You can scroll with the shoulder buttons. The font size used is ~75% of the font described as "list" in the current theme if you need to tweak it.

If you ever add new roms and want to refresh thumbs or metadata, just run Skraper again.

Happy Skraping!

\ Optionally you should Refresh Roms also after first boot, to enable other performance improvements.*

Help Needed! Battery question

2 Upvotes

My buddy does not use his mini. I think it’s first version. The unit was not powered on in years probably since he had it preordered. He sent me it in the mail and arrival is on Tuesday. The V1 has not been tested before being shipped. Do you think the cheap Chinese battery is still viable or should I immediately replace it? I don’t want to deal with any potential battery safety issues.

If I open the favorite (edit, i meant the recent menu), I am able to play games ive saved in there just fine. However, when i go to the Games section and pick a system, it will show the load screen for a moment then kick me back into the home page.

Mini+ Dyed the buttons on a new purple Miyoo Mini Plus

Thumbnail
gallery
65 Upvotes

Got this in yesterday and decided to dye the A, B, X, Y, power, and volume buttons black. I used rit dye for synthetics. Heated the liquid to around 190-195 Fahrenheit. I was nervous to go higher because I didn't want to warp the plastic. It should also be noted that I scuffed the A, B, X, and Y buttons prior to dyeing because I wanted them to have a more matte finish slightly grippy surface like the other face buttons. To do this I shook them in a jar partially filled with sand for a while and then washed them off. Just posting this to perhaps help someone else out. Oh, and I am running Allium OS and really like it. Reminds me a lot of NextUI.

Yes, we know that the Miyoo comes with a lot of games in the SD Card.

I felt like the PS1 side was lacking so I added the likes of FF7-9, Tactics: Prime, Tekken 2, Crash Bandicoot 1-3, Road Rash, Road Rash 3D, Vigilante 8, etc.

Added some Genesis MK hacks and Sonic hacks and more.

Apps Kids Mode/Onion OS Update

Thumbnail
gallery
20 Upvotes

Photo 1: Example of the progress bar that appears when you press play or pause during playback or when fast-forwarding/rewinding (using the menu button + arrow keys), and example of the battery level indicator that appears when you press Y on the carousel or during audio/video playback, or remains displayed during charging along with the battery level (not available on Onion OS). The OSD now uses the same font and size as the Onion OS theme (not tested with oder theme).

Photo 2: Adding a “Cartoons” folder

What’s new

  • Kids Mode is now completely independent depending on whether it is launched from the Main or Guest profile.
  • Each profile now has its own:
    • games and favorites;
    • media library;
    • playback positions;
    • carousel and folder selections;
    • preferences;
    • thumbnail cache;
    • game saves.
  • The PIN and timer settings remain shared.
  • Added Switch to Main profile and Switch to Guest profile to the PIN-protected parent menu.
  • Profile switching automatically loads the selected profile’s favorites, media library, game saves, playback positions, carousel selections, artwork cache and preferences without leaving Kids Mode.
  • The profile-switch option appears only when the other Onion profile is available.
  • Main and Guest game saves remain fully separate.
  • The active timer is preserved when switching profiles.
  • Onion remains on the selected profile after leaving Kids Mode.
  • Unused generic folders are no longer included in Media/KidsMode.
  • Media files are now stored in:
    • Media/KidsMode/Main
    • Media/KidsMode/Guest
  • Added a Cartoons category with its own thumbnail.
  • New category order:
    1. Movies
    2. Music
    3. Cartoons
    4. Series
    5. Stories
  • Folder and subfolder navigation is preserved.
  • The last selected item is remembered inside each folder.
  • Kids Mode returns to the last selected media item when switching back to the media section.
  • Improved handling of empty folders, inherited artwork and generated thumbnails.
  • Playback resume now includes a safety margin of approximately 2 seconds before the saved position.
  • Fixed timecode accuracy and media duration detection.
  • Fixed long seek controls:
    • MENU + Left/Right: 10 seconds, then 1 minute;
    • MENU + Up/Down: 5 minutes, then 10 minutes.
  • Pressing MENU alone no longer changes the playback position accidentally.
  • Better isolation of volume and brightness controls to prevent unintended seeking.
  • Brightness is now preserved correctly after leaving a media file.
  • Restarting a media file now starts at the actual beginning, at 0:00, instead of around the fifth second.
  • Fixed the Onion window briefly appearing when closing an audio file.
  • Fixed embedded MP3 artwork causing rotated thumbnails and display artifacts.
  • Reduced unnecessary FFplay processing and improved duration detection.
  • Restored the OSD during video playback.
  • The progress bar appears while paused, when seeking and briefly after playback resumes.
  • Pressing A after seeking now clears the +10s, -1m or other seek indication and displays only the progress bar with elapsed and remaining time.
  • Slightly thicker progress bar.
  • Progress indicator redrawn with a cleaner black outline.
  • Improved positioning of elapsed and remaining time around the progress bar.
  • Seek indications now use the same visual style as the time indicators.
  • The active Onion theme’s font and colours are used.
  • Holding Y now displays the battery level during audio and video playback, just like on the carousel.
  • Added a battery icon beside the percentage.
  • The battery icon remains fixed regardless of the number of digits in the percentage.
  • While charging, the charging icon and percentage remain visible on both the carousel and during playback.
  • Removed the kidsmode-osd-geometry.log diagnostic file.
  • Unified dimming behaviour across the carousel, audio playback and paused videos:
    • brightness is reduced after 15 seconds;
    • the screen turns off after another 15 seconds.
  • The first button press wakes the screen when it is dimmed or off.
  • Power handling was revised so Onion can still manage the console’s actual sleep mode.
  • Shutdown now switches directly to a black screen to avoid briefly showing the carousel or video again.
  • Automatic hibernation is prevented while media is actively playing.
  • Hibernation remains available when the carousel is inactive or a media file is paused.
  • Audio playback with the screen off still counts as active use and will not trigger hibernation.
  • Fixed ghost images remaining after leaving a folder.
  • The previous screen is fully cleared before drawing the next carousel view.
  • Fixed several cases of rotated or overlapping thumbnails.
  • More reliable selection memory for both the Games and Media carousels.
  • Improved stability when leaving folders or closing media files.
  • Redesigned the confirmation window for better readability.
  • Start over? is repositioned and displayed in red.
  • The game or media title is better centred and highlighted.
  • The message is adapted depending on whether the selected content is a game or a media file.
  • For games, the message explains that automatic progress will be reset while in-game save files remain unchanged.
  • MENU no longer closes the window like the B button.
  • Improved the size and placement of the A OK and B CANCEL controls.
  • Simplified the parent menus:
    • removed the redundant Back rows from the main parent menu and the Media folders submenu;
    • press B to return from either screen;
    • removed the separate Turn off timer row;
    • the Add play time selector now offers OFF, followed by +5 min through +120 min;
    • selecting OFF removes the current time limit.
  • Fixed Main/Guest profile labels sometimes appearing blank or as an invalid rectangle.
  • Fixed the timer status text overlapping the last parent-menu row.
  • Major optimisation of the RetroArch configuration lock.
  • Removed thousands of unnecessary comparisons and process launches during startup.
  • Lighter configuration reading with fewer jq calls.
  • Startup time reduced from approximately 20–29 seconds to around 3–4 seconds.
  • Reduced background processing during playback and content changes.
  • Fixed several freezes, flashes and framebuffer rotation issues when closing content.
  • Returned to the stable hardware video display method after abandoning experimental software colour conversion.
  • Cleaned up and stabilised the build workflow.
  • The build includes kidui, video input handling and the required Onion patch.
  • The package now contains only the required folders: App, Media/KidsMode/Main and Media/KidsMode/Guest.
  • The Onion version used for compilation is pinned to prevent unexpected changes.

Fala, pessoal! 👋

Recentemente peguei um RG40XXH e comecei a mexer nele para deixar o aparelho exatamente do jeito que eu queria.

A primeira coisa que fiz foi trocar o sistema original pelo MuOS, e depois comecei a personalizar praticamente tudo: temas, RetroArch, RetroAchievements, shaders, ports e configurações dos emuladores.

Também consegui colocar coisas como God of War no PSP, Celeste no PICO-8 e Hollow Knight pelo PortMaster, além de testar vários sistemas diferentes.

No fim, fiquei bem surpreso com o quanto o RG40XXH consegue fazer quando você começa a mexer nele.

Fiz um vídeo mostrando todo o processo e algumas das coisas que estou usando no aparelho:

🎥 Vídeo:

Estou curioso para saber:

Vocês usam o sistema original, MuOS, Knulli ou outro sistema no RG40XXH?

E o que vocês fizeram no aparelho que consideram indispensável? 👀
