Thabk you for this. This was the only guide I found to help me install the newest 64bit firmware for the RG35XX SP. I was so confused as i forgot the Z files were for 7zip even though i already had it.

Looking forward to getting mine soon. Been wanting something in the SP form factor for a bit.

Thanks for this, I was having trouble finding any videos how to update stock FW. They all seem to be about CFW. I ordered mine Saturday. Now its just the long waiting game as it ships from China!

Savestates in drastic seems broken in the new update, any info/fix for that?

Thanks for the video, helped me figure their weird stuff out lol. It looks like unpacking the zip file actually uses those .z fragment files, so you don't actually need to use 7zip on them. Really weird way they set that up though.

What firmware allows the power button tap function? So I can turn my d pad to analog. Mine came with version 1.3 and the joy pad did not work. I also tried to map it under the settings. But that did not work for me, unless I'm doing it wrong. I updated and I still can't get it to work. I'll keep trying, I did contact Anbernic and the site I bought it from. Just in case it's a flaw or they have any ideas. Also when I open my RA folder on main menu. It does not see the SD cards. It shows up blank. I have to open Retroarch under settings to get it to play games. Am I doing something wrong? Really liked your straight forward video and vibes. Thank you for any help. I'll see what Anbernic says too.

Hi I know that is not the right place but it make me crazy I have the R35xx H and How can I change the speed of the fast forward please ? I found on settings but even if I take x30 nothing change I tried any solutions and I don’t want to install other thing than stock OS which has retroarch

sir why mine cannot change "partion scheme" ? mine "mbr" does it have efect sir? please guys give me an answer, i use Sandisk 256gb.. thank you..

is it possible to update individual emulators?

Someone knows if saves issues are cleared with this update ?

Can you update the device without a computer? I have my Anbernic connected to wifi. Thanks

I could be wrong, but it looks to me like the .zip file in the folder with the 7zip files is just the first part of a multi part archive. So it's not really in there twice, and you didn't actually need 7zip. The normal method for opening this archive would be to just open the zip file, which will automatically pull data from the other parts. In this case 7zip is kinda more of a alternative, or workaround.

How does it mend?

wooah sir i don't know, but i watch your tutorial about rg35xx h and i do it to my rg35xx sp and it work fine sir 😂🙏

it turned my 128gb sd card into a 2gb, what do i do

they already changed their mind. Now image is small but there is a new problem that we have to find a way to expand partition

I had issues with 1.0.4 randomly going tp black screen (have to wake with power button tap) and the SP randomly fully shutting down with quick shutdown on close lid enabled & screen timeout 5 mins. 1.0.3 seems better with quick shutdown disable and screen timeout to never. 1.0.4 stll had these issues with those same settings

If you want a better user experience in general I would install MuOS! The rom section doesn't have to be set up in a specific way! You just copy and paste whatever folder structure you prefer and bam all will show in the explore content page. Also, MuOS has the best Portmaster experience I have had so far. All of the games I wanted like Shovelknight, Stardew, and TMNT Shredders Revenge run perfectly unlike Knulli and Stock. They are having issues with Ports that have the files on a second SD but it's actively being looked into.

It would be more efficient and better on their bandwidth if they had multiple download links with the actual image (not one image with 3 different types).... Thanks for the info 'Stay Nerdy' 🙂

Can anyone shed a light on this, is it actually legal to download this file since it contains an ungodly amount of roms?

The reason its split up into so many pieces is so that it can fit on an exFAT or FAT32 storage solution (where individual file sizes are limited to 4gb.) Of course you still cant extract and compile them together on such a storage device but yeah lol

*Could someone share the update without the ROMs ?*

Just an update, Anbernic released 1.05 now but it no longer has ROMs and completely botched the partitioning so you literally have no room for ROMs after the upgrade. These guys make cool stuff but are complete knuckleheads when it comes to updates.

1:15 Killing in America is legal, but downloading roms is not.
