  • This is a quick and simple video tutorial of the install and boot up process of Tomato OS with PortMaster for the Trimui Smart Pro.
    Tomato 1.0.4.1 release combines 1.0.4 base with update 1, and adds PortMaster. Rainbow LED and always on performance scripting from DjWare has been added as well.
    From existing Tomato OS simply drag and drop and allow it to replace everything it wants.
    If you don't currently have portmaster installed you must reflash the internal 1.0.4 awimg by holding volume down when powering it on after copying the zip to your fat32 micro SD.
    New users copy the bios from Retroarch/system to a safe place, and delete everything but the Roms folder from your fat32 SD, drag and drop Tomato to it. Place SD in device and power on while holding volume down to install 1.0.4 and PortMaster.

    I'm glad you did this tutorial. When you find a game that doesn't work and remove it, does it clean up the install files or just remove it from the list?

    Thanks for the video, it helped me a lot and everything was a success, I was very happy until I realized that I did the entire experiment in a memory of only 16GB, and now I intend to change to a memory with a larger capacity, I have to do all the process in the new memory including pressing Power+Vol- to install TRIMUI_EX 001/002, or just copying what I had in the 16GB memory to the new 128GB one works for me, thank you very much in advance.

      I think you only need to copy the files, because you already installed it in the internal memory of the device

    So, regarding the 1.0.4 hotfix, do I need to drop that on top of my Fat32 formatted sd card after it has flashed Tomato 1.0.4 to the Smart Pro itself? Is it just drag and drop or is flashing necessary again? Thanks a bunch. Pretty excited to try this out.

    Does tomato os have all the necessary bios needed for the systems it can run or I need to manually provide it? If so what is the path to place the bios files?
    Thanks again for your hardwork and the team behind it all😊

      Just got mine today! I have some other handhelds but got it for the same reason, to tinker. $55 shipped. There seems to be a really strong community behind this one. Installing Tomato OS right now but also excited about the development of Knulli. Who can say no to a $50 device with this form factor and potential?

    What's the point with the two files in the Drive folder?
    One is a zip which contains what appears to be an SD patch with an update file in the root and another update file inside of a folder named "1.0.4 firmware" and the other zip only contains an update file smaller than the other.
    I've tried to install the first one in a blank SD card as it comes, with the default update image placed in the root, but this bricked my console. The screen was blinking between the portmaster 001 installation and the Trimui menu. I could recover it with the recovery and then I replaced the image on the sd patch zip with the update file of the second zip, and first the green screen, after that the portmaster 002 installation and then worked.
    Why there is 3 different update files in the two zips and for what is needed each one?
    There is also a BEST in the sd patch zip with no roms and there is a lot of images in the IMGS folder without any ROM, this useless folders delays substantially the process of copy and paste the files into the SD card

    • @TechToyTinkerCompany
      @TechToyTinkerCompany  หลายเดือนก่อน

      The imgs aren't useless. They show boxart when adding games. The second zip is just the internal firmware file if anyone needs it

    I decided not to get the optional SD card with questionable Roms and OS, so I'm starting from scratch and would like to double-check everything before installing an OS on the device. Can I do what you did in the video and drag and drop everything onto a blank SD card that has no OS copied onto it? Does Tomato come with the bios files? Thanks!

    I found that having a folder named "Ports" instead of "ports" on the root on the microSD card would cause PortMaster to fail to launch properly. This means we can't have the new Ports tab on main menu if we want PortMaster to work, any idea how to fix this? Thanks for the great work btw :)

    Does Portmaster come with its own games and bios?? This looks FAIRLY simple, just need to get on a Windows computer. This Chromebook is not doing me any favors with updating this thing.
    Also-it does not matter if I have no updates installed right? I think it can be confusing because there is also a file that says it's for 'hotfix', which I believe is like a patch? I have been trying to mess with the 2.5 gb file. You don't need to extract it directly into the non bootable fat 32 sd card right? You can extract it first and then drop it in? Im used to doing some stuff with games and bios but not firmware, thanks! Tomato I hope keeps improving! Thanks so much 🙏

    Hi guys.
    I accidentally dropped my Trimui Smart Pro in water...I turned it off and the next day I opened it to dry the inside of the console.
    I wanted to remove the battery but I used a screwdriver. I messed up by going a little too hard and saw a spark.
    After which, I managed to peel it off with a plastic card.
    Now I would like to find another battery, but I can't find any on google. I wrote to Trimui, I am waiting for a response. But if you know where I can find one, I'm interested.
    Thank you so much.
