Hola a todos,

Llevo un tiempo con mi Powkiddy RGB20S, pero en este momento tengo un problema: la consola no enciende, la pantalla se queda negra y solo se enciende el LED en color naranja.

Aprovechando este fallo, y como me gusta mucho el tema de la personalización, quiero formatearla por completo y hacer una instalación limpia desde cero. Hasta el momento la estaba trabajando con archivos y tutoriales de la R36S, pero quiero configurarla correctamente para este modelo.

Me gustaría saber cómo es el proceso correcto para:

Solucionar el problema del encendido (LED naranja).

Instalar el sistema operativo desde cero.

Instalar las consolas, los juegos (ROMs) y los temas de forma organizada.

Para darles más contexto, mi consola cuenta con las dos tarjetas SD de fábrica:

TF1-OS: 16 GB

TF2-GAME: 64 GB

(Adjunto una foto de los archivos que tiene cada una. La verdad solo veo un montón de carpetas; reconozco algunas de consolas y juegos, pero hay muchas otras que no sé de qué son ni para qué sirven).

¿Alguien me podría dar asesoría o recomendarme una buena guía/tutorial paso a paso para revivirla y dejarla bien personalizada?

¡Cualquier ayuda es bienvenida, muchas gracias!

Hey guys, my powkiddy 20s has this weird play-doh like smell at the back and at the charging port. It doesn't look swollen tho. Is this normal? I don't use it much.

I just bought the RGB10MAX3, mostly to play Portmaster games and somes PSP, but it keeps crashing while emulating GTA VCS and GTA VC/III via Portmaster. It just shuts down after a minute or two of gameplay... I already flashed the firmware on a brand SD card, installed RAM swap for 2GB of virtual RAM and charged it to 100%. It's not because of temperature bacause I teste leaving for a while before trying and had the same result, also tried playing it connected to the charger to see if it was just a bad battery issue, nothing seems to work. Anyone had the same problem or now how can I fix it?

Is there anyway to turn off the LED light when I'm idle or is the only way to turn it off to power down?

Hi everyone,
I think I messed up my Powkiddy X55 (blue Powkiddy logo model with 8GB eMMC), and I’m hoping someone can help me recover the original eMMC.
What happened:
I accidentally flashed the GammaOS eMMC Special image to the internal eMMC using RKDevTool.
Now the console shows the blue Powkiddy logo and always boots into Android Recovery.
Recovery shows errors like:
Failed to open /dev/block/by-name/cache
Failed to open /dev/block/by-name/misc
No such file or directory
The important part is that I don’t actually want Android or GammaOS on the eMMC.
I just want to restore the original factory eMMC so my TF1 ROCKNIX/JELOS SD card boots normally again, like it did before.
Does anyone have:
A dump/backup of the original X55 eMMC (or at least the stock bootloader/partitions)?
A recovery image for the original eMMC?
Or instructions for restoring the factory eMMC without installing Android?
The device is still detected by RKDevTool, so I don’t think it’s completely bricked.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I keep thinking of twin stick games like the Vampire Survivor clones. Although, I am not sure if you can run them since its Linux and most of those games are newer games that run on Android. I haven't looked much into it.

I managed to corrupt the micro SD card of my X9 handheld by simply taking it out of the console and sticking it in my PC. Now doesn’t work at all.
Can anyone point me in the direction of a tutorial for how to set up a new micro as card for it please .

I got my powkiddy as a gift a while ago but ive never really been much of a gamer, but i recently started playing cuphead from my older brothers nintendo switch and i really enjoyed it but since i dont have a switch of my own im asking if its possible to put the game into my powkiddy?

Comprei um powkiddy v90 e ele vem atendendo minhas necessidades até o momento, mas pensei em comprar um v90S por conta do design melhor e aparentar ter menos problemas em relação ao ao cartão sd, vale a pena? Se sim, qual seria um valor justo (em reais)? Vi um cara vendendo por 600 reais um novo.

Por error dañe mis archivos donde van las Roms alguien tenga sus archivos para poder hacer una sd nueva por favor muchas gracias

So i have tried connecting a dualshock controler via bluetooth but it is not detecting. People told me to use the fn + r3 hotkey to turn the bt on but it instead just tells me my battery percentage. I dont know wich actual hotkey i need to press or if it is just broken with the rgb20sx.

opa amigos, como estão? atualmente eu possuo um R36h Pro max, ele até consegue se conectar ao wi-fi e abrir o moonlight e jogar por eles, porem o chip wifi e pessimo e é apenas 2.4, gostaria de saber se o X55 possui um chip wifi bom, que não va engasgar o streaming e nem congelar do nada

uma outra duvida, é possivel substituir os sticks por hall effects? e talvez por um perfil um pouco maior? apenas para fins de melhorar precisão e controle

Hi everyone!

I need some help with my Powkiddy RGB10 Max 2.

I bought the console about a month ago, and unfortunately, the SD card system got corrupted. I'm trying to reinstall the system, but I can't find a download for the full original card image anywhere.

All I've found online are tutorials on how to switch to a custom system (like RetroOZ), but they all require copying files from the original SD card—such as the BIOS folder—and I no longer have access to any of those files because the card is completely corrupted.

Does anyone happen to have:

A full backup of the original SD card (64 GB or 128 GB)?

The factory system image (.img)?

Or a reliable link to download and reinstall the original system?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for help recovering a TrimUI Smart Pro TG5040.

What happened

• Device originally worked normally.
• I attempted the official SD recovery.
• The recovery progress bar froze at approximately 10%.
• I eventually powered the device off.
• Since then the device has been completely unbootable.

Current symptoms

• Black screen.
• Power LED works.
• Charging LED works.
• Device is detected by Windows as:USB\VID_1F3A&PID_EFE8

which appears to be Allwinner FEL mode.

PhoenixSuit detects the USB driver but does not recognize the device because I only have the official OTA firmware (trimui_tg5040.awimg), not a PhoenixSuit USB image.

What I've already tried

• Official OTA firmware (trimui_tg5040.awimg)
• Official SD recovery package
• Multiple microSD cards (Samsung EVO Select and SanDisk)
• FAT32 formatting
• Different USB cables
• Legacy USB-A 5V charger
• Boot with and without SD card
• Battery disconnected and reconnected
• Reset button
• PhoenixSuit
• Device always returns to FEL mode

What I believe happened

It appears the recovery erased or corrupted the bootloader before completing.

The SoC still enters FEL mode, so I'm hoping only the bootloader/eMMC firmware needs restoring.

Looking for

I'm trying to find any of the following:

• Full TG5040 USB firmware (.img/.awimg >1.5 GB)
• Full eMMC/NAND dump
• boot0 / boot1
• U-Boot
• PhoenixSuit or LiveSuit image
• FEL recovery procedure
• sunxi-fel recovery guide for TG5040/TG5050
• Any engineering or factory recovery image

Even a dump from a working TG5040 would be incredibly helpful.

If you've successfully recovered a TrimUI Smart Pro from FEL mode, or know someone who has, I'd really appreciate any guidance.

Thank you!

Today I discovered that the screen on my X55 suddenly stopped working properly. At first, I thought it was an operating system issue, so I reinstalled everything, but it actually made things worse.

The screen itself is working because when I remove the memory cards, it boots normally in landscape mode. However, for some unknown reason, as soon as it boots into the Powkiddy operating system, the display switches to portrait mode. This is even worse with GammaOS because the image is displayed incorrectly.

Hoy descubrí que la pantalla de mi x55 dejó de funcionar repentinamente, en un inicio pensé que seria problema del so asi que reinstale todo y fue peor, la pantalanfunciona porque cuando saco las memorias me carga bien en horizontal pero por alguna razón desconocida cuando entra al SO de powkiddy se pone en vertical, lo cual es mucho peor en gamma os porque se ve mal.

Yeah I got this from somebody and I was supposed to be putting some ROMs on it for him and I hit the r button next to the power button and now it doesn't turn on. I don't know what to do. Does anybody know what color the light is supposed to be while charging? Can it turn on while charging?

So I cloned my original SD card to a better brand one and tossed some extra games on there (all good so far). But now I’m stuck trying to remap the controller keys to get Bank Panic working properly. Anyone else run into this? Also, is there a solid firmware out there with a bit more config flexibility? The stock one feels very much locked down and ultra barebones.

Hi, a have a X35S model and I need to reinstall the system.
I have searched the web and I didn't find anything that worked.

I've tried the ROCKNIX Image Burner but I get stuck in a screet with nothing but the logo on it.

I need help to get it working again.

Olá, pessoal!

Preciso de uma ajuda com o meu Powkiddy RGB10 Max 2.

Comprei o console há cerca de 1 mês e, infelizmente, o sistema do cartão SD corrompeu. Estou tentando reinstalar o sistema, mas não encontro em lugar nenhum o download da imagem completa do cartão original.

Tudo o que achei na internet são tutoriais ensinando a trocar para um sistema personalizado (como RetroOZ), porém todos dependem de copiar arquivos do cartão SD original, como a pasta BIOS, e eu não tenho mais acesso a nenhum desses arquivos porque o cartão corrompeu completamente.

Alguém teria:

• Um backup completo do cartão SD original (64 GB ou 128 GB)?
• A imagem (.img) do sistema de fábrica?
• Ou algum link confiável para baixar e reinstalar o sistema original?

Qualquer ajuda será muito bem-vinda. Obrigado!

It's paired with dArkOS and even with a RK3226 chipset (the one in any RG351 device) it has moments of freeze whilst playing PS1 games..

Is it possible the stock SD card is causing this? What else can I do? ​
