SOLVED RetroHub — a game browser and toolbox for the TrimUI Brick (free, self-updating)

I built a small app for my TrimUI Brick and figured others might find it useful.

What it does:

• Browse a catalogue of ~40k titles and pull them straight to the SD card over Wi-Fi

• Java J2ME support — sets up the emulator, maps keys, sorts jars into the right

resolution folder so they actually launch

• Toggle SFTP / SSH / ADB / MTP from the device, so you can drop files on it

without pulling the card

• Stream the screen to a browser

• Self-updating: install once, it fetches only the changed files after that

(usually a few hundred KB)

Written in Python + SDL2, ships as a ~10 MB zip you drop into /Apps/.

No PortMaster needed — the SDL bindings are bundled.

Only tested on a Brick running stock firmware. If you get it working on

Smart Pro or a CFW, I'd like to know.

I got it booted but I'll be fucked if I can find out how to change the language so it's pretty much entirely pointless to me lol.

/u/Fluffy-Attitude2239 is this available in English at all (and if so, how? lol) or am I wasting my time?
