Today I'm checking out the MiYoo custom firmware for the POWKIDDY v90. I also installed some additional emulators, and something I'm really excited about is a set of PS1 config files that are supposed to improve PS1 performance. Let's give it a good test in a ton of systems and see if it's worth your time and efforts! (Spoiler alert - it is)

QUICK INSTRUCTIONS:
1) Materials
1. SD card of 8GB or more
2. Lastest Community CFW v1.3.3 Image (drive.google.com/file/d/1OA7H...)
3. Install Win32DiskImager
4. Install 7zip
5. Install SD Card Formatter (Download)
2) Setup
1. You need to remove all partitions of SD card using: Partition Wizard or SD Card Formatter.
2. If the CFW file is compressed on .7zip just extract using 7zip before proceed.
3. Execute Win32DiskImager, select SD card, load the .IMG file and press Write button to proceed.
4. Once the image is burned on the SD card, open Partition Wizard and choose Disk Management.
5. Then right click on the "main" partition and choose extend (Set it to the maximum) and apply.
6. Insert the SD into your console and turn it on. If it boots it is a success.

Also on your PowKiddy v90, if you don't want the slow logo during boot. Simply bring up the directory in the ROOT, see the "boot-logo" file ? Rename it with an exclamation in the beginning. This does not delete but does rename it to a file that is not being looked for. Then when you boot your PowKiddy v90, it will skip the scrolling logo entirely.

After spending more time messing around with my v90, over clocking it and sum other changes I’ve gotten to really like it. To begin with I was pretty disappointed that snes games don’t emulate that well and I’ve gotten sum of the snes games to play reasonable but after sum changes and custom firmware and the latest emulator firmwares it plays gameboy/gameboy color, gba and sega games very good so I’ve been using it quite a lot

The additional options are nice, but not mind-blowing, and I found the new interface a bit award with the up/down/left/right menu navigation, so I stayed with the stock firmware. However, my Q90 didn't have the new dance feature like yours, so maybe I messed up the installation.

@@TechDweeb Hi TD. No, the Retro Champ uses real cartridges. No fun there. I've got a little over 10,000 NES carts of every language I've downloaded over the years and wanted a way to have them on the go - so far the PowKiddy does the job for what I wanted which is the NES emulator and load/save state - and that's the main reason I bought it. As for folks complaining about the SNES not running so well on the PK. I did see the it runs Final Fantasy Mystic Quest quite well though, one of my fav SNES carts. A26/GB/GBC/GBA and the rest - except for PSX, they run without any issue though. As for movies, I haven't found one that doesn't desynchronize the audio - sadly. The RG350 though is a powerhouse for movies though of all kinds Mp4, MPG, MKV, WMV, and AVI with DiVX or XViD - they all run perfect.

Hmmm. Not sure a new card will make it faster to load games, but getting a new high quality card is always a good idea. If you have data on your old card you can either re-flash the OS on your new card (like I show in this video) and then copy over your save files and games. Or you can 'image' your current card (using Win32DiskImager), and then write that image to the new card.

Is it possible to burn the custom firmware to the SD card and don't do anything else?

@TechDweeb 2 жыл бұрын

Yeah I don't see why not. Although if you don't copy your games etc over then you'll have a pretty empty device. You don't need the other stuff like the updated emulators and PS1 configs, those are optional.

Is there a way to get all 4 sholder buttons to work with PSone games? It would help allot with Odd World and Tomb Raider.

Apparently it'll be supported in the next firmware release (1.3.4). So we just have to be patient for the update.

As far as audiobooks go, some of us have super boring jobs and audiobooks make them tolerable. I'd definitely be reading books on paper at work if I could, but doing so would probably result in multiple deaths, including my own, since I drive for a living.

Accidentally deleted the emulator section. I copied all the emulators back in. How can I relink them manually, without having to go through the entire process from the beginning?

@TechDweeb Жыл бұрын

No idea. I'd just re-flash the image in that case, probably easier to copy your games and save games and start fresh rather than try to mess around with getting the emulators to work again.

@@TechDweeb After a bit of reading up on the subject on a few subreddits, I think this might be the best idea. I still have all my save files and roms, so I'll just back those up and use them with a fresh reinstall of the firmware. I'm a bit jumpy because my Pokémon save is over 20 hours at this point.

It's not the best, but it's still the best (only) clamshell, so it's a winner for me. And the battery is swappable (common BL-5C). Got one for my kids and getting a second for myself. Really hope another clamshell comes out, I don't care for any of the other styles. Got a Retroid Pocket 3+ and don't even play it.

@TechDweeb Жыл бұрын

I agree. We NEED another decent clamshell. It'd do so well, it kinda blows my mind that more companies aren't bothering with this form factor :/

Your console is still fine, it's just the SD card that's been ruined. You can use any SD card buy a new one from amazon, flash the firmware, copy your games, and you'll be good to go. Good luck!

Can you please please do me a small favor? Test Tomb Raider (the very first one or second one) PlayStation and let me know if this works. Or can anyone tell me? That’s the only reason I would update the custom firmware as I’m afraid to do this (not familiar with this type of stuff only adding games). It would mean the world to me if anyone could do that. Or at least tell me what runs well ps1 on original firmware or new firmware.

@TechDweeb Жыл бұрын

I just tested it, I couldn't get it working. Crashes after the main menu. Maybe there is a version of the game and a version of the emulator that works but my quick test says no. Most ps1 games do work well though fwiw.

Miyoo is good for PS1 but it did something to my Neogeo games. Now the Neogeo games don’t launch. SNES starfox 2 still not working which…eh ok, but I’m running Gran Turismo 2 and yet Metal Slug, Windjammers, Starfox 2, not working. Pico-8, still not working. Got close on Snow for pico8 but it freezes on title, everything else throws me back to main screen, kinda want to go back to default firmware now.

@@TechDweeb Did some research basically it sounds like the partitions have to be next to each other? Which they are if they mean that the partition are actually next to each other in disk partition. I went to a different computer and I had the same issue. I am not sure why I am having this issue before anyone else I used the below method to make it work. Note this method has its risks including data corruption etc. The software seems legit because they also have a Wikipedia which is a good sign I think that software is on the up and up I had to use third-party software mini partition wizard to actually extend the unallocated volume. I used the free version which is enough to make this work luckily. Obviously make sure you don’t install the other software they try to sneak in during set up and also there is a risk of data corruption etc. with this method but it worked for me just fine!
