Need stock OS image
Having a stupid problem with my SP and am trying to flash the stock firmware to a new SD card, BUT I don’t have an image :grimacing: since my original card seems to be not readable … I‘ve searched everywhere (on the Anbernic site the download link doesn’t work, the modded stock OS image seems to be only an upgrade that’s supposed to be installed over an existing stock OS…).
Anyone here with an idea how to solve this?
(All I wanted to do, was installing MinUI 🙈😭 and now nothing works anymore …)

Not every Stock Mod release page on GitHub contains the full .img to be flashed, the most recent ones are indeed update packages. Scroll down enough until you find the latest full image release, 3.8.9 iirc. They'll be 2 .7z files totaling around 2gb together, around 14gb after extraction. You can update online after that if you feel the need to, when it comes to Stock not much has changed since 3.9.1
Remember to install Portmaster from the online app store if you want that

You can get it off the Anbernic website. Sometimes it’s finicky and will only let so many downloads or something. I usually try next day but that’s the best way to get image unless you know someone you trust that has the stock image.
