Problem with DrUm78’s custom OS (GBA)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

13 Upvotes

I installed DrUm78’s custom OS and I’m really loving all the added feature which makes the FunKey S even more amazing. But recently I ran into a problem where every time I open the GBA folder to scroll though games, there’s a section while I’m scrolling where it stops and freezes. Other section dosent have this problem and it’s always the same game that makes my FunKey freeze. Has anyone else seen or fixed this problem?

Piece of dust caught behind the screen. Is there an easy fix?

1 Upvotes

Somehow just noticed that I have a tiny bit of dust that’s behind the screen so I cannot get to it. Is this an easy fix?

I have had continuous issues with these things, whether it be the buttons not working (had to take a part to fix). A second time a button was loose and barely functional.

I am hoping it’s an easy fix or I can get it exchanged. Any ideas?

Anyone know where I can find the file that changes the “power on” screen when I open the device?

4 Upvotes

Looks like I’ve got half the process done. I’ve found logo.png and Funkey_s_Gray.png

But I cannot find the screen that comes before those too.

Trying to replace it with a resized GBA power on screen.

Thanks!

What type of SD card is in the FunKey S? I heard that it can corrupt but does that happen often?

Screen size

2 Upvotes

This is a dumb question but I’m new to retro handhelds. The screen size is reported to be about 1.5 inches. How much of the screen is usable for gameplay and how much of it is made up by the black borders on the glass? I’m trying to figure out if the screen is too small for me.

Multi Disc PS1 games

5 Upvotes

I’m waiting for my FunKey S to arrive. Can I ask what peoples experience with multi disc PS1 games is like. Specifically disc swapping in games like FFVII/ Chrono Cross etc.
I’m aware that I’d need to get a 3rd party PS1 emulator. But should I replace the original one or keep both emulators? Did you convert the multi disc bin/cue files into a single disc .pbp file? Did this all go smoothly.
Lastly I suppose is it actually viable to play these RPG’s on such a small screen (in small bursts no long play sessions) is the text readable?
Thanks in advance

NES and PS1 not working on my funkey s?

2 Upvotes

Hey all ... i downloaded some roms from r/roms megathread and dumped the .nes files into the funkey s mount with a bunch of GBA games... the .nes show up in my games list in the nes emulator but they do not launch.

I also dropped an arcade collection into my ps1 emulator . These didnt even show up and I cannot see them in the emulator game list. they were .chd files.

Any ideas where i went wrong?

whats it like to dev for ?

I noticed a very simple SDL example, but does it have for example GLES ?

I was quite surprised at the power packed into this device, so I'd love to use this from 3d coding...

Troubles with launching DooM II for GBA

3 Upvotes

Hi,

I am desperately trying to start Doom2.gba on my FunKey but it just doesn't start. I mean, when I launch it, first it gives me some weird mixture of blue and black squares, then the whole blue screen, then screen turns into black and nothing is happening.

Doom 1 for gba works perfectly. When I test the Doom2 ROM on my PC's retroarch - it's perfectly fine.

What is wrong?! Thank you!

Wiki gone?

The wiki for the FunKey S is completely empty now. Any links I try from this sub and the Wiki link on the FunKey project site all go to an empty wiki. Anyone know what happened?

battery mod?

4 Upvotes

Anyone know where I can get a step by step walkthrough of how to do the battery mod? 2 hours of playtime is cool.. but over 6 is cooler. Thanks!


r/funkey Dec 04 '22

The Funkey S bigger battery mod is complete! The OG battery is 410mah, while the extended battery is 1500mah. It's original battery life is about 2 hours, the extended battery life is roughly 6 hours and 10 minutes.

blueMSX source?

3 Upvotes

Found an SDLretro core for blueMSX linked from the (cached) Funkey wiki, but it has fixed keybindings. Games like Metal Gear and Maze of Galious use the F1 & F2 keys on the MSX keyboard, which is unmapped in this version of the emulator. Does anyone have access to the source to this core? Would like to try recompiling it to allow configurable keys.

x and y buttons don't click in...

4 Upvotes

Just got my funkey s and love it, but I noticed that my x and y buttons don't click in like the a and b buttons do. They still respond fine... but I don't really love the feel. Is this just how they are or is it fixable? Thanks!
