r/RG35XX_H

Hi everyone - I used to have a usb card reader which I’ve now lost, is it possible to plug the rg35xxh to my laptop via usb and browse/add rom files using windows explorer?

I’ve tried to browse to its IP address but I can’t connect to it that way either, despite it being connected to my WiFi network. Am I missing something obvious? I’ve tried a few cables and both usb c ports but to no success.

Found my RG35XX H after a year of it collecting dust, curious if I can get breathe of the wild running on it. I know it's a long shot but been wanting to replay it and just found this thing.

so I was replacing the analog stick in my RG35xx H and went to test my work. I accidentally plugged the battery in the speaker connector . The speaker connectors and the battery connector are the same connector. When I plugged the battery in to the right connector and turn it on The handheld moves the menus by itself. Kind of like an analog stick is stuck or the d- pad is stuck. But I've unplugged both analog sticks and removed the membrane for the d-pad and it's still moves the menus by itself. Did I damage the device when I plugged the battery into the speaker connector by mistake? Should I try reflashing my SD card to see if something got corrupted?

Got one recently and the panel is SO bad; saturation is awful/low and looks very washed out. Not sure if I got a bad badge or all units are like that.

It's by far the device I have with the worst panel. How is the panel of yours?

(Attached some comparison pictures on the comments despite it's more noticeable in real life)

What's the most kid friendly OS? I'm planning to give my 8yo a unit.

Just installed Knulli Scarab on my rg35xxH last night! Going good thus far - still trying to figure out all of the details - and can't get wifi to work, but all good so far. Proud that I have it working!

More Details:

So less than 2 months ago, I hadn't played a video game in almost 30 years, never heard of roms/bios, etc, and wanted to play some retro games, and here I am now, with two retro handhelds, a handful of roms and ready to go!

I've never flashed anything on a sd card, or anything like that, and after spending a lot of time on this sub, i decided to go with knulli...(then based on so many other posts), was going to go with muOS and then decided to go with Knulli Scarab. I followed one of Russ' (retrogamecorps_ older YT guides and seem to be in business! I have a handful of roms loaded up (I went with the 2 sd card system) and played games ALL last night!! I still need to figure out all of the settings in Knulli (like I don't even know how to get to the Main Menu after finishing a game!), or what a hot key is!, but that will come soon.

I was hoping to get wifi working (it seemed so easy when folks do it on the YT tutorials), but it didn't work for me.

I still might try out muOS eventually, but am super happy with it thus far!

Any tips/tricks...pass them on!

After being a long-time Knulli user, I decided to really put in the effort to figure out MUOS since I hear it's easier and quicker, but it turned out to be just constant frustration for me. Yes, it booted quick but the features I like in Knulli were just a challenge in MUOS. what I consider basic, like SEARCH, SCRAPPING, and SMB. Yes, MUOS had them (scrappy installed separately), but they felt extremely clunky to access, and scrapping was painfully slow. I even reformatted my SD2 card (at the cost of a few thousand games) to see if that would help. it didn't and I gave up last night. Now I'm rebuilding my game collection and back on KNULLI

Does the RG353M shell fit on the RG35XXH? Looking to upgrade the shell for a more premium feel. I would switch to the RG353M but it does not have compatibility with muOS.

Hey guys! I've had my RG35XXH for a few months now and am really loving it. I've seen online how many upgrades you can make (dpad, buttons, shoulder buttons, grips, etc.), and I'm trying to figure out what actually improves the experience.

So, for those of you who have ventured into upgrading your device, what's the best upgrade you've made and would recommend?

Sorry folks - new to all of this - with my first handheld (rg35xxh) only purchased a little while ago (still using stock os and planning on upgrading soon (this weekend), but since I am just starting and have a handful of roms to date (about 10) and ZERO bios...wondering how 'safe' is it to plug the stock sd card that came with the unit into my computer and grab the bios files (I plan on leaving the roms and collect my own eventually).

I have watched many a YouTube video by folks who do it, and yet I have seen several folks on various retro handheld subs say you should never put one of those cards in your personal computer.

We only have the one computer and I don't want to put it at risk but plugging it in and grabbing some files to use. Should I not bother and try and source these myself or just do it?

Again...new to all of this so please go easy on me.

I'm planning to buy an rg35xxh. It's around 60 quid ($75 - $80) on AliExpress. But I've heard you can get it for much less
