r/MiyooFlip

Caught this bad boy on ali express. Brings me so many memories of my gba sp.

I haven't installed a new OS because I feel like I don't need to yet but I'm loving it so far.

I received it like a month ago, I was very careful when I was opening closing it but now when I open it I hear a cracking sound and I noticed that this crack appeared on the plastic. Is it possible that it breaks this fast?

I ordered it from the official AliExpress store but if it really cracks I will ask for a refund as I see no point to do a reshell if it breaks this fast.

Go to PortMaster in your device now!

Haven't really used it ngl, it's been sitting on my desk inside the case it came in ever since I got it, I opened it today and found this :(

I have like 3 hours of playtime on it maybe

Was ist denn hier passiert?

Das Gerät war in dem Case und in einer Schublade gelagert. Habe schon lange nicht mehr damit gespielt.

Nun ist der Akku so aufgeblasen, das sogar die Halterung an der Schraube gebrochen ist.

Ehrlich gesagt hab ich bisschen schoss es komplett zu zerlegen um den Akku zu entfernen und denke gleich das ganze Teil zu entsorgen.

Habt ihr ähnliche Erfahrungen gemacht?

I closed the shell after a decent session of Final Fantasy IX and didn't hear the usual, loud CLACK when closing. I've babied this thing from day one due to so many other people having issues with the hinge but in the end it didn't matter.

EDIT: I bought this in January and use it pretty regularly

everything works. the picture is being displayed only on tv. the picture on the tv is being stretched beoynd its borders. in some systems the game is going beoynd borders slightly aswell in others there are black bars but no matter the retroarch menu is slightly beyond borders, and no matter the highlighted areas appear. the dissapear though after an hour or more of the device being off. the sequence of whitch am connecting is first the converter gets its power then tv is being turned on and then the miyoo flip is being turned on. i tried different but it doesnt matter. the fuck is going on?

Two weeks ago, somebody uploaded a mod of the flip mini with a wireless charging mod. Bless him, but that gentleman left us hanging thirsting for instructions so I took the liberty and dug in a little bit.

Basically it’s a pretty straight forward job, you just want to solder the positive lead onto the edge of a capacitor and a negative lead onto the jack itself.

You can solder the red wire (positive) to one of the two points, however, I suggest using the one on the left since there is much more space for you to work with. The black lead can go anywhere on the plug housing.

Then you want to stick the ferrite sticker shiny side against the battery and place it kind of in the middle. Dont skip this step because this is what prevents conversion loss as heat.

On closing the case, it’s a squeeze but as long as you don’t run the wire through the middle and route it around you should be able to close just fine.

Please do not attempt this unless you have the right tools and know that this is a DIY job and that I am just sharing this with everybody as information to do what you will with. I nor anybody here is liable if you mess something up so ask lots of questions before you start.

I'm thinking of buying this Miyoo Flip, but I don't know the version.

Seller says the hinge makes a loud clack when opening, so I know it's not a 2.1.

Is there a way to know if this is a V1 or a V2 based on this pics? If not, what easy-to-answer questions shoud I ask to the seller?
