retrofw.github.io's Introduction

Announcements & Updates

  • This update has some measurable performance improvement compared to previous version.
  • It uses the latest 2021 November buildroot with the most up to date software (excluding kernel) Link to 2.3 buildroot for developers.
  • Various small tweaks to improve quality of life.

RetroFW v2.2 is out. This time it's mostly bugfixes and some Q.O.L. changes in the system recovery. Now it will create the needed partition layout during the first boot. This is faster and more reliable than partition expander used in previous versions.

Also, libopk and opkrun are finally included! Now you can enjoy other amazing GUIs such as pyMenu and SimpleMenu!

Old releases

RetroFW v2.1 is out with a new batch of bug fixes. It brings more stability, improvements and also features for the developers. Just in time to show your valentine how much you love them!

This release brings all the performance, devices, features, ports, and fun that you remember from 2.0! 2.1 adds important fixes like the vfat configuration, improved low-battery notification, and the ability to scan ExFAT formatted cards for OPK releases. It also brings us cool new features like the fastest file browsing ever, libopk and opkrun tools, default CPU speed of 600MHz, faster debugging loops with better log file management, and too many small tweaks to mention!

(Fix to come soon for libopk and opkrun!)

Check the changelog and download the latest revision in the Releases Page.

This little patch rollbacks a change we made to VFAT mounting options (from "lower" to "mixed"). We're rolling it back because, in combination with a Windows copy bug, it caused FBA and NeoGeo ROMS not to be recognized by emulators when put in internal SD. Just install it from Explorer like a normal IPK.

patch-2.0-001-vfat-lower.ipk

After many months of development and testing, it is my great pleasure to officially announce the release of RetroFW 2.0!

This release brings more performance, more devices, more features, more ports, and more fun! With the addition of OPK package support, you can now bring your emulator installations from device to device. Just like your ROMs!

LDK landscape pcsx4all

Hello!
When I updated my LDK to RetroFW v2.2 I tried to play the " Oddworld: Abe's Exoddus ". Unfortunately, when you press the "select + L" (the equivalent of L2) and the "blue button"( the equivalent of X) nothing is happening
(I mean that I press "select: + L + blue button" nothing is happening).
That's a pity because all the other button combinations work great!
I hope somehow you can fix it.
Thank you very much for your hard work!

issue with UAE4all

Hello,

I have an issue with UAE4all on retrofw 2.0 ; my device is able to boot the amiga but I can't access the files browser to load disk images. I don't know if it's because the home directory is now on the external card. Thank you for your help

I can't put games on it

I know that retrofw expands to occupy all the storage, but I can't put games anywhere. The only way that works was putting the roms in a external SD, but, when I want to safe in any emulator says something like "There's no directory founded". If someone can help me is gonna make a big favor. ¡Thanks!

gngeo screen flickering

The screen is flickering while emulator is running. The emulator isnt well ported, needs proper converting to the correct resolution.

cannot use fba

handheld console: RS-97 Plus, 2nd anniversary version with IPS panel.
fw version: 2.0
FBA version: downloaded here, opk file.
issue: cannot play any game including cps1, cps2 and others.

rs97 v2 error

I have the rg-plus v2, no matter what firmware you install, none works. As much blank screen.
On the board it says rg_plus_v1.0, ips screen

Doesn't look to work with RG300 Bright Screen

Flashing it to the card gives me a blank screen. The version for the RG-300 V3 IPS here works fine (I know the site looks sketchy, but it's what is officially recommended by retrogame). The version it works with is the RG-300 V3 IPS.

I'm running on Linux, and basically what I've done is this (with /dev/sdh being my card):

$ sh RG-300_bright_screen.bat
$ sudo dd if=RetroFW.img of=/dev/sdh

suspend does not work in LDK square RETROFW 2.0 type 2B

the suspend function does not work, this worked fine in version 1.x with the button that was dedicated.

I have also seen that the screen flickers when the boot logo comes out and the screen flickers on emulators such as GPSP.

White screen RS-97 v2.0

Getting a white screen for the following versions: 2.0, 2.1, 2.2 for RS-97 v2.0. Used type 2A image. Seems like it boots up and creates the partitions and directories, but nothing shows up. No boot/splash screen, just a white screen. Screen flashes once or two upon initial boot up after flashing the image file. Brightness control works. Tried multiple mSD cards. Original firmware works with the card I flashed.

LDK Game Vertical

Hello,is it possible to put in the next firmware version for LDK Game Vertical version the TV-OUT feature back?

thanks

Not working FCEUX Game Genie

Put Game Genie rom to ~/.fceux and rename it to gg.rom.
And enable Game Genie from FCEUX main menu.
But not working.

gPSP fast forward

Does gPSP you recommend in emulators come with fast forward option?
I have tried all of the keys on my opendingux retromimi device but nothing seems to be working.

Cheers

RG-300 V1.3 - Boot issues

I tried to flash these RetroFW versions on my RG-300 V1.3 2019.6.3
RetroFW 2.1 Type 2B -> Stuck on boot logo
RetroFW 2.1 Type 3B -> White screen
RetroFW 2.2 Type 2A -> Black Screen
RetroFW 2.2 Type 2B -> Stuck on boot logo, after some time appears screen about partitioning, reboots but stuck on boot logo
RetroFW 2.2 Type 3B -> White screen
Do i have to open the console to check which screen module is installed to know which RetroFW works?
I noticed another issue has been created about this console #20 it has been closed as invalid but idk what does invalid means since no RetroFW works apparently on this model.

SimpleMenu freeze

rfw simpleMenu freezes on boot screen after exiting menu. I tried several solutions but the only thing possible was to reset data from the recovery.

can't import tkinter

I can't import tkinter in the terminal after updating 2.2 I get the following error message "sintax error import error there is no module called tkinter" or something like that

simplemenu not working with 2.2

Hi!
simplemenu doesnt seem to work (anymore?)
neither the beta not the normal opk seem to run

the .simplemenu is created.

Sunset Rider (mame rom) RETROFW

The sunset rider rom is not runing properly.can you guys fix this please?? Retrofw 2.2 was a excellent update..very very thank you guys for everything..

MPLAYER App?

Was the MPLAYER App removed from this version? I just recently got it to work in trhe previous RFW version and when I updated to this latest version I see it is not included,

Any way to get the app back?

Documentation: RS-97 v2.0 wrongly listed in table to be Type 2A

In release 2.0, there are 2 tables in the release notes, and RS-97 v2.0 (Retro Game v2.0) is wrongly listed in the 1st table as being compatible with Type 2A; where the second table lists it correctly as compatible with Type 1A.

Unfortunately all subsequent release notes only includes the 1st table with the error and it took me a while to figure out when flashing it on my RS-97 v2.0 and had to do a little investigation myself.

RG 300 v1.3 Won't boot

I've tried several different versions but can't get it to boot on my RG 300 v1.3 (version number displayed right next to the internal SD card slot.

I've tried

2B - Black screen, nothing at all
3B - White screen
5B - White screen

I guess I don't have IPS in this 1.3 version as I have also tried the official IPS version and that doesn't work (just a white screen as with 3B and 5B above). Just the official RG 300 V2 firmware is working for me at the moment. I've opened it up and can't see anything to suggest what screen it does have in it.

Linux Kernel Source Code

The linux kernel came with RetroFW is 2.6.31.3. I cannot find source code & configs for this.
P.S. is there any working port of 3.x or 4.x to RS97 & LDK?

Wake from sleep issue w RG300 IPS screen

I've been playing around with RetroFW 2.0 for the last couple days and notice that if I let my RG300 with IPS screen go to sleep that it often will not wake up properly.

Sometimes the screen just stays black (but backlight is on), sometimes it will come back on with varying levels of brightness (sometimes super dark/dim and other times with blown out blacks), and sometimes the screen comes back on like normal but lightly flickers. These issues may resolve themselves after a minute or so but there are times I need to reboot the system to fix it. Launching a game and quitting back to the GUI will often get the screen back to normal as well.

Switching brightness with shoulder buttons

Description: the right shoulder button increases brightness but the left shoulder button doesn't lower it.

FW Version: 2B
Screen: replacement "sony" screen

Steps to reproduce:

  1. While in GMenu, press the brightness button
  2. Once the brightness bar shows up, press the right shoulder button. Brightness will go up.
  3. Press the left shoulder button
  4. Brightness stays the same

2.3 version headphones downclocks devices to 528

If headphones are plugged in the newly compiled 2.3 version of retrofw - after the NTSC and PAL prompt - the CPU clock is throtteled down to 528 regardless of clock frequency setting.= by user

This happens even if you turn the gmenunx prompt off

freezing screen in game rs97

Hello, excuse my English, I acquired the rs97 version 3.0 console, LCD_LKY030A01, I installed retrofw several versions, 2.0,2.1,2.2 until I changed the sd card. My problem is that when I am in an emulator for nes, megadrive, gba, after about 10 a 15 min approx the game freezes up to moments the OS is restarted.
it could be that it is the console or the slot of the internal sd that works badly?

2.3 WIP testing branch add something about it

The WIP has been compiled by blackz and he has done some more awesome things behind the scenes, but me and blackz do not have authority to edit the page.

Can we at least get that while you are on hiatus?

TV-OUT

Hello is the LDK Game (square) and the Retro Game 300 IPS support the TV-OUT connection with the latest RetroFW 2.2 firmware??

Thanks

after rs07 support, why not aiwo g1000 support?

hello,
since end of last year retrofw supports the rs07, so is it an option to support aiwo g1000?
this device is not followed by the manufacturer and the actual cfw is not as easy to install as retrofw and is not as functionnal as retrofw.
this machine is great but the software is not fully painstaking.
Someone know if it is possible to support it?
thx

release of last remaining source code

@pingflood , there are still a handful of things for which the source code is not released like recovery menu and I think the gmenunx binary.

I would like to request that they are released even if they are WIP zip, as long as we can fix the buildroot so that make can create an image.

Black Dots on LDK Device

Hi everyone,

Today when switching on my LDK Horizontal device I noticed it was displaying black dots on the screen, even when entering a game it still showed the dots, could this be a problem with the device itself? Uploaded a couple of pictures (hopefully they did) to show my problem.

Thanks 👍
