Sorry one last thing. I think the biggest difference between GarlicOS and the stock is that when you change viewing options on stock, it essentially applies those setting to any game you play after unless you manually change it again. I have had little problem with that but I think for enthusiast who may switch between a couple different systems regularly, Garlic OS is more convenient cause you can do all kinds of saving settings for systems and even down to specific games.

Just wanted to add this in case it helps anyone. I just got the RG35xx and it came shipped with the newest firmware update for the stock OS. The biggest difference between that and the one you show in this video is that for handheld consoles, particulary all Gameboy, you do now have options other than full screen. I believe their is Full Screen, Aspect Ratio, 1:1, and 1:1 with a basic overlay for the rest of the screen space. This update alone has me leaning towards the stock OS. I don't know that need all the color shading for gameboy, just want it to look normal and not stretched. Been playing some GBA with aspect ration and it looks great imo.

Also having more cores is just good to cause let's say you do enjoy those extra systems, now you can get an extra value out of the system by just having a CFW.

So, Stock has a sleep mode, but it really just drains your battery while it's asleep. Garlic doesn't have a sleep mode, but when you turn it off during a game it automatically saves your game and when you turn it on, it automatically loads your game, so it doesn't use any battery and feels like sleep. Hope this helps! :)

First time visitor to your channel, really good video, subscribed. Loving the 35XX and have pretty much thrown myself at GarlicOS updating every time there is an update.

Can stock os run games like garlic os?i mean there is any diffrence between them to runnig games?
how are you supposed to make the 2nd sd card work on stock os? When I put it in, everything is slowed down and it doesn't even find the extra roms
Just wanted to add this in case it helps anyone. I just got the RG35xx and it came shipped with the newest firmware update for the stock OS. The biggest difference between that and the one you show in this video is that for handheld consoles, particulary all Gameboy, you do now have options other than full screen. I believe their is Full Screen, Aspect Ratio, 1:1, and 1:1 with a basic overlay for the rest of the screen space. This update alone has me leaning towards the stock OS. I don't know that need all the color shading for gameboy, just want it to look normal and not stretched. Been playing some GBA with aspect ration and it looks great imo.

GarlicOS 1.05 onwards needs new code for Boxart/Screenshot previews in game lists. The 640x480 workarounds are shit. There's a bug in navigating the "Consoles". When pressing left in the console entries, it should rotate the menu pages. However, it spares the last page when not all tiles are filled in the 2x4 segment.

But whenever I exit the game and restart, the menu is empty. No games saved. It only happens on Snes. What am I missing?

I won't like Stock has good presentation, but the features of Garlic are just impossible to ignore (even though OP did) Having Sleep Mode, More Cores, built right into the OS is not just necessary it's REQUIRED, to get a good experience out of this amazing device I don't know why the Stock OS doesn't have Sleep Mode, but man it's something that's supper handy sometimes you just can't get to a save point quick enough before you have to do something else, and you need to just let it rest for awhile. Also having more cores is just good to cause let's say you do enjoy those extra systems, now you can get an extra value out of the system by just having a CFW.

So, Stock has a sleep mode, but it really just drains your battery while it's asleep. Garlic doesn't have a sleep mode, but when you turn it off during a game it automatically saves your game and when you turn it on, it automatically loads your game, so it doesn't use any battery and feels like sleep. Hope this helps! :)
