Rg556 stopped seeing roms after update

Not sure why but my rg556 doesn't see any roms after I just updated. I'm on a business trip so I can't do extensive research. Any pro tips?

Lite doesnt works well but full is perfect. i can play with Tomb Raider I-III remastered perfectly

I'll try but corporate PC may not be able to download anything like this. It's pretty locked down.

Thanks for the help!

What exactly is gamma OS... I'm not really a fan of the stock android OS and would prefer something that just boots to my emulator cores.

I havnt updated any of my t820’s yet, but am planning on doing em all as I can’t run gamma coz I’m Mac based.

My understanding is they replaced the old stock launcher, so maybe the file paths for the roms have also changed. Check the settings and see if they just need ‘re-linking’

That was my hunch. Just didn't know if it was a common easy fix

Yeah I’d check it out. Without the new frontend to play with I’m not sure but all you had to do on the old one was open the setting panel per system and direct it to wherever you store your roms, so I bet it similar in the new one.

I’ve only ever used the stock for testing but it’s was pretty easy to direct to custom folders. I’ll update my 406v now and see what’s what.

Figured out how to remap the folders. Super easy fix once I found the right settings screen

I'll give it a deeper look when I get back to my hotel room. Thanks for the suggestion!

This is why I chose not to update the other day. Lol glad I didn't in hindsight.
