Anbernic RG353V ArkOS Installation and Setup Guide

Ойындар

If ArkOS is not booting on your device after install try these this:
1) Use a different SD card. Make sure it's a high-quality name brand card.
2) Try replacing the file mentioned in this Github ArkOS post: github.com/christianhaitian/a...
ArkOS is a fantastic custom firmware for the Anbernic RG353V and RG353VS. In this video I'll show you how to install and setup ArkOS with an easy to follow tutorial. We will cover:
1) Downloading and installing ArkOS to your SD card.
2) Common problems you might run in to and how to fix them.
3) Setting up a 2nd SD card to add your games to.
4) Connecting to WiFi and downloading box images.
5) Some slight visual tweaks to give your games a retro appearance.

    Thank you! This video bailed me out when my brand new RG353VS's OS micro SD card died when I tried to back up the data to a better Sandisk card (this was right out of the box, mind you!). The 353 wouldn't boot up and I thought it was bricked. Followed your instructions and installed ArkOS on the new sd card. One hint: Most of my Atari, Sega, and Nintendo roms worked right off the bat, but others, like PC Engine didn't. Updated ArkOS and many of the rest of platforms started working! Thanks again for the great vid!

This was very easy and I actually didn't really need to do anything with my 2nd Sd card (with roms) other than follow your direections - i thought I had it would wipe everything and I'd have to at least load the roms back on using my pc, but turns out it just had to move some stuff around I guess and all my games were there.

The only deal breaker would be if you want to play Nintendo DS as the touch screen doesn't work on linux, only Android. So if Nintendo DS is a priority, a person might want to pay a bit more for the dual boot feature of the V.

If you're on Windows, you can open file manager and go to the view tab at the top and there should be a "File name extensions" checkbox that should be checked. Alternatively you could try downloading the v2 file from this link and adding it to your boot partition manually: otggaming.com/rk3566-OC.dtb.v2

It downloads the box arts, then after i restart the emulation station, also tried restarting the system, nothing happens and box art not appearing. Any idea why is that happening? I tried using DB method and screenscraper too as i have an account. Edit: ok I managed to solve the problem. Maybe its an update, but after downloading the box arts with scraper, for each core in the games list, pressing Select you have to chose the view style and set it to Detailed. Looks great!

    Great video, new to this world. What are the benefits of upgrading to Arkos vs whats default on the system? Also does your game SD card have to be 64 gb or can it be higher? I happen to have one lying around.

  • @otggaming3180

    @otggaming3180

    Жыл бұрын

    Thanks, I appreciate that! Frankly, the default OS on the 353V is probably the best that Anbernic has come up with to date and it's not really necessary for the average user to upgrade if they are enjoying the device as stock. The benefits of a custom OS, like ArkOS, is that the developers are much more active in adding new features and squeezing as much performance out of the device as possible. So I would say that basically ArkOS is better suited for power users who really like to tinker with settings, but the default OS is just fine for those whose only concern is just to play games. The SD card can definitely be bigger. I find that 64GB is a nice baseline that will hold a ton of cartridge based games as well as a few CD-based games before storage becomes an issue. If you plan on adding quite a few CD-based, then a bigger 128GB or 256GB card is the better option.

    Жыл бұрын

    From what I understand, GarlicOS doesn't use a true sleep function. When you hit the power button while in-game, it takes a save state and powers off. When you power back on, it loads the last game you were in with that save state. It sounds like you're device hasn't fully powered down, but if you hold down the power button the unit should eventually cycle off and the LED should also turn off.

I believe the folder structure is the same, so ArkOS should see the ROMs on the 2nd card. The ArkOS wiki has a nice section with the folder names that it looks for when finding ROMs. You could double check it to make sure all the folder names match up with the stock 2nd card: github.com/christianhaitian/arkos/wiki/ArkOS-Emulators-and-Ports-information

    Greetings, so glad you found the video helpful :) There could be a number of reasons why ArkOS is not reading your games. A few things to check: 1) Make sure that they are in a supported rom format. 2) Also double check to make sure that they are in the correct rom folders (for both this and point 1 you can use the ArkOS wiki to verify the supported rom formats and the folders they should go in: github.com/christianhaitian/arkos/wiki/ArkOS-Emulators-and-Ports-information). 3) Some games won't launch if the corresponding BIOS for the console is not in the BIOS folder on the SD card. If you want to find a pretty comprehensive list of BIOS files you can google search for "RetroArch BIOS Pack"
