@@16bitsorhigher yes i do it shows files and when i go to boot the system it just hangs on the first screen with the 3 consoles and when i put a new card with ark on it or any other os it will A blink a red light in the middle or B turn on with a blank screen jelos os did that i tried to clone the disk with no real change and also you know how the back of the console usaly has a sticker saying game console or something like that there was no sticker on mine
Loose keys have nothing to do with whether it is original or not. Mine does the same sound when I shake it but it is original R36S and has Arkos. File manager works perfectly too.
Could you please share the dtb files before you sell the device/sd. I am going crazy trying to get mine to work and I think it would be good for others as well
@@budgetking2591 that’s what makes this device such a great emulator. The price compared to all the phenomenal features. But it’s pretty fragile so you need to take care of it.
@@smoothgaming9917 I didn’t add it. It came pre installed but in vain because you can’t do anything with it. The only app that works in there is the terminal. Nothing else works. The whole EmuELEC OS is broken in this system. The only thing they managed to make work is RetroArch. Luckily all the emulators work with the exception of N64, PSP, Saturn and NDS which run glitchy. I was able to run the script for Portmaster through the terminal but since I don’t have that much knowledge on the matter the only thing that I was able to install was the folder that says “Ports” but there was no Port installer. So I deleted it.
@@smoothgaming9917 there are two other CFW images that I was able to install that run a little different from each other. If you want to try installing them, I can send you the link where you can get them.
@@raay411 Yes. That is what I actually wanted to get. I want to see if I can maybe tinker with it and get it to work but it is gonna be hard. The only thing that I can use on it is the terminal app because if I plug the device to a router directly through an ethernet to USB C adapter it will connect to the internet so I might be able to run scripts on it to install drivers or other apps. I still have to find out if there are any out there first.
I got this one and the card it came with was currupt now i cant use it cause it wont acept any os i load onto a new sd card
@@Gregg135 what happens when you insert the SD card in your computer? Do you see any partitions?

@@Patriabuelo I wasn’t implying that was a way to distinguish them. I was just showing how my R36S has almost no noise and the EmuELEC one was noisy.
@@16bitsorhigher So in conclusion we could say that there are some noisy R36S too 😅

@@Eightype8 Are you referring to the dtb files on the clone? Go to this website: handhelds.miraheze.org/wiki/R36S_Clones
@@16bitsorhigher Thanks! I was able to get it working
i was lucky to recieve a real r36s but new r36s now come with a different screen, terrible light bleed in top right. but for 25 euro i cant complain.

@@16bitsorhigheryou simply can clone your purple device SD card or install a fresh copy of Arkos which is what i did for a bigger storage SD card.
u can see on the "X" button thats a fake device!
@@EliasPfaiffer yes that’s one of the ways to tell you have a fake R36S
@@16bitsorhigher right!
its a fake r36
Just flash new ark os 2.0 in new memory card..
Won't work, he got a clone r36s, its a k36 board in the inside.
@budgetking2591 i see.. its no linux.. u cant install using SD.. the only way is to formet the board its self.. but that is a good copy tho..
