I've been struggling with installing this for over a month now, and it finally worked! Thank you so much!!!
I love to hear that! Happy to know the video helped and thanks for sharing :)
Simply the best video on installing and updating the RG35XX. Thank you very much good sir
I'm really glad the video helped and the kind comment is a bonus! Thank you :)
Because of a video like this I joined your channel and the truth is your way of explaining is very excellent, I have updated GarlicOs on my SD thanks to your previous video and it's going well for me, the only drawback I have with GarlicOs is that the battery lasts very bit
Thanks so much for your continued support of the channel, I really appreciate the kind words!
I noticed my battery life has been greatly improved since updating to 1.4.9. I believe Black-Seraph included quite a bit of battery optimization over the last few versions. If your still on an older version, you might try upgrading to 1.4.9 and see if it helps with your battery.
@@otggaming3180 I am going to start the process from scratch and in this case I will use 2 memories, one for the system and the other for the roms and bios and I will see if the battery is better, although I am currently using the latest version 1.4.9 but I updated it based on your previous video
@@MundoNintend0 Hope it goes well for you :)
Really nice tutorial! Thanks so much
My pleasure! Thanks for leaving a comment!
Great vidéo thanks 💪
Thanks so much, really appreciate it :)
Thanks for the tutorial! Worked great for me ✌
You got the update to work?
@@punderfulplanet Yes, I did a fresh install with the latest version
Great to hear! Thanks for leaving a comment :)
step by step thx :) very usefull and easy to follow
No problem. Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment!
Brilliant 👏 thank you so much i just a brought RG35xx its a wonderful little system and two days later im here watch your very educational video👍👍
Quick question what is the maximum size card that will work on the RG35XX ?
No problem, happy to hear the video was helpful to you! According to Anbernic, the max size the 35XX supports is 512GB.
this is the problem im running into with every tutorial ive seen when ever i flash the garlic os i dont see the 3 files (bios, Rom, cfw) i get 19 different items
It sounds like you are only seeing the system partition which is separate from the ROMs, BIOS and CFW partition. If you are on Windows, it sometimes fails to assign a drive letter to the ROMs partition. You can try using disk management to assign a drive letter to it.
What happens if my rg35xx came with garlic os along side the original os but I want to update sd?
Im using 2 sd Cards. Did install garlic and works fine but dunno how to move games from old sd Card to new one. I coppied roms folders before then coppied games in them but cant see many games and others are multiple when i open the rg35xx.
gpd win 1 there is a problem with the bios I watched the video but I can not find the bios I need your bios please help
hi! im having a problem when i assign a letter drive on fat32 partition i only got diskdrive with the blue question mark.
How do i fix this problem?
Very clear and helpful thanks a mil! One thing does it matter if for example my cartridge roms I use on pc so i unzipped them. I see when putting them on the rg55xx you transfer them as the 7zip files still zipped. does that make a difference. also the Playstation roms I use on pc are folders with a .bin and a .cue file in them. do I just transfer the folder for each game over into the PS roms folder on the rg55xx or do I just transfer the .bin file? I would just test but I´m away for a while and Im just curious now 😅
No problem, glad you found it helpful and thanks for the feedback!
For cartridge games, I keep them zipped so as to save on storage space. Technically, an unzipped Rom will open faster because it doesn't need to be uncompressed. But the time difference is so imperceptible it's a non-factor.
For PS Roms, you'll want to transfer over both the bin and cue files. You might also look into converting them to .chd format. CHD combines the bin and cue into one file and also compresses it. You get the benefit of smaller file sizes and fewer files to keep track of. It's pretty straightforward and there's a number of good tutorials online. I covered it in my video on PS1 emulation in RetroArch: ruclips.net/video/ZGHzc_9cqEc/видео.htmlsi=3yQHxszvdiZLPvxF&t=116
Thanks for the guide. I did the dual sd card setup but my unit not reading it for some reason. I stick on doing single card setup for the mean time until I figure out the dual as card
No problem, thanks for leaving a comment! With dual SD cards, the most common issue I see is that the 2nd SD needs to be formatted to FAT32. That's the first thing I would check. I hope your able to figure it out and happy gaming :)
Great guide, following step by step on new install. At stage 4 i cannot see any of the folders in windows explorer (BIOS, CFW, ROMS) help?
Appreciate that! There are times when Windows doesn't automatically assign a drive letter to the partition. This might help: ruclips.net/video/Ywa-y8f0Bso/видео.htmlsi=0ptiwB3rFcpNxjLU
I know the video is for the RG351, but the same principles apply. Just look for the ROMS partition in disk management.
Any idea why my files would stay on 1st SD card and moved to my desktop? I didn’t copy it. I physically moved it over. Would I just need to delete them off the old one?
Hello,I have just a question which system has better Performance for playing ps1 games between stock system and garlic os system, Or both the same?
I tried many different tutorials but it just won’t turn on after installing everything.
Was able to install back the original OS, and Batocera OS, but the Garlic no luck.
Any ideia on what is wrong ?
Followed all your steps but for some reason you had two extra folders out of nowhere during 2nd SD card setup, screenshots and saves, which did not appear on mine. Do I create these folders myself? Great tutorial btw! Thanks.
Thanks, I appreciate it! You're all good. GarlicOS generates the screenshots and saves folders automatically, so you don't need to create them.
heyo i have a question for the dual cards. which one is number one and number 2. IS number one 16gb and the 64gb number 2.
i did all step by step but i cant see consoles at my sd card 2 how can i fix it
With a 2 card setup where does Box art Go?
hey, why does mine always appear as 9 mbs after putting garlic.img
Hello, and thank you for the video. do you know if it is possible to turn off autosave and autoload roms? when I make the changes in retroarch it automatically resets when I close, although I have activated the "save on exit" option.
You're welcome, so glad you found it helpful! I don't know if it's possible to turn off the feature in GarlicOS, but if you press "Start" instead of "A" when opening a game it will load the game as normal without using the last save state.
hi, i know its quit late but where can i find the bios files
Hello, I'm installing Garlic from scratch on 2 cards and was able to get it done but I'm unsure of something. Do I just follow all of the steps that you went over from the start or skip to the 2 card method? Also, there's another tutorial on RUclips and on his website that doesn't say to actually move the bios and roms from card 1 to card 2. It just says copy the files to card 2, it does mention moving or deleting bios and roms from card 1. Any help would be appreciated.
Greetings,
You'll want to follow all the steps from the both the starting from scratch and 2nd sd card setup.
Regarding the 2nd part: if you keep the bios and roms folder on both card 1 and 2, you'll get duplicate entries in the GarlicOS menu for each game that is on both cards. So you can keep roms and bios files on both cards, however I wouldn't recommend having the same roms and bios files on both cards as that will clutter the menus.
@@otggaming3180 thank you!
@@scottjm211 You bet. Happy gaming!
It worked, thanks!
but, now I have a problem, pokémon emerald/sapphire/ruby, its not saving using the in game save. having that its necessary to progress in the game. But using garlicos its not working. With the default OS was working fine, Someone had this problem too? there is some workaround that does not involve use the old os?
No problem. Thanks for the comment!
I've heard reports of the roms that come stock with the 35XX not working very well with GarlicOS. There's a number of threads about this over on Reddit. I use my own collection of games so I haven't run into this problem personally, but I understand that many have addressed it by using a different version of the rom. The "tiny best set" is a good alternative collection to what is provided stock by Anbernic. There's some more info here: www.reddit.com/r/RG35XX/comments/11w3tfd/help_garlic_os_not_saving/
@@otggaming3180 thank you very much again, that was the issue
@@ric_reborn No problem, glad to help. Happy gaming :)
This'll work for other Anbernic game devices, right? I've got an RG350m. Just wanna double check.
RG350M has different hardware so GarlicOS won't work on it. For it I would recommend "Adam Image." It's a really good custom OS for the device.
It seems that the copypasteontopofstock.002 file is corrupted. Tried both winrar and 7zip and can't extract it. any resolutions?
I would first try redownloading the file. If that doesn't work, one or two others have mentioned that they had to reinstall 7zip to fix file corrupt errors.
I'm on the last part just after formatting to fat32 and moving the files says it's going to take about 3 hours!?!??!? Is that right or did I botch something??
It depends on a number of factors, including how many GB's your moving, the speed rating of the SD card and also whether your USB card reader is 2.0 or 3.0.
For reference, on my machine it takes about 40 minutes to move 50GB worth of Roms to a U1 rated Samsung SD using a USB 3.0 card reader.
Can this work on the RG353VS, I've tried ArkOS and don't really like it. I find the stock Anbernic OS is easier to use and navigate than ArkOS.
Garlic will only work on the 35XX, so no go on the 353VS. The stock firmware on the 353 series is actually quite good. I say if it's working for you, stick with it :)
Can’t find those recommended BIOS files…
Sad.
Try a google search for "RetroArch BIOS Pack"
Okay I have done all the steps to a T and my console wont turn on...
Do you still have the original OS SD card? And will it turn on if you use it?
One quick thing you might try is to hold down the power button for about 30 seconds to see if that get's it to power on.
after i downloaded only the gameboy consoles appear in the console section
Each console will appear after you've placed ROMs into the corresponding console folder. Do you have ROMs in other folders besides the GB folder?
@otggaming3180 yeah, I have ps1 nes and snes roms in the correct folders but none of the consoles appear still
@@MAXXMP3 Hmm... A couple other things to check...
1) The SD card. You'll want to use a quality, name brand card. The generic cards from Anbernic can exhibit strange and odd behaviors.
2) Your rom files and formats. You'll want to verify that you have good versions of each game. Again, the ones included by Anbernic can be suspect, so it would be good to get yours from a better source if you haven't already. Also check that your formats are compatible. You can do so using the OnionOS wiki:
onionui.github.io/docs/emulators/psx
onionui.github.io/docs/emulators/nes
onionui.github.io/docs/emulators/snes
can you just buy a 128 memory card and do everything in it?, i mean all the games i want dont require that much space....
Absolutely, you can use a 128gb card. The max size the 35XX will accept is a 512gb card. However, if you don't plan on adding a ton of games you could probably go with a 64gb or even a 32gb card. I currently use a 64gb card and it contains about 1,900 games with about 100 of those being cd based.
@@otggaming3180 yeah I bought a 128 I got everything I wanted it came to around 110gigs so just what I needed lol
why neogeo cannot load or play in garlicOS?
Make sure you have the neogeo bios in the neogeo roms folder.
So you cant have 2 rom/file game in 2 card at the same time?
You can have games on both sd card 1 and 2 and GarlicOS will see both. But if you have the same games on both cards you'll see duplicate entries in the console menu.
@@otggaming3180 so i just need to copy bios folder from the original SD to to my 2nd SD ?
@@saufimuhammad8147 Yep, as long as the 2nd SD card has been formatted to FAT32 you should be good.
Will this work on the rg35xx plus?
Unfortunately, no. However, there is a newer version of GarlicOS, version 2.0, that is available for the 35xx plus. I plan on doing a video as soon as I have a 35xx plus in hand.
i cant instal win32 disk imager
You might try balenaEtcher. It's another free app that operates similarly.
How do i format my 128gb card to fat 32??
You can use Disk Genius as outlined at 8:00: ruclips.net/video/Gez4mopOU8Q/видео.html
Or you use a program like fat32format: ridgecrop.co.uk/index.htm?guiformat.htm
@@otggaming3180 does the second micro SD that holds games have to be fat32
@@bkobjackson5077 Correct. Otherwise the 35XX won't be able to read what's on it.
@@otggaming3180 what's the best OS for 353p?
@@bkobjackson5077 I'm partial to ArkOS as I've used it on all of my Anbernic devices for a couple of years now and am very familiar with it. However, I've talked to many 353 users who are also very happy with the stock firmware. Others really like JelOS and UnofficialOS. It's really one of those things where you might try each one and see which you like best.
There file is corrupt does not even work
Try uninstalling and reinstalling 7zip. I've heard that has worked for a few others that were getting file corruption errors
@@otggaming3180 I did figure it out however I can’t figure how to install boos for PlayStation that compatible I have try every void in boos folder. Psone games do run regardless just annoying pop in the bottom saying no bois install
@@otggaming3180 the other error wonderswan just white screen and some neo geo not working. I think I known why zip file with file and file. Needs to be unzipped and one less folder
@@kiraryu2710 The Playstation BIOS file should be: scph5501.bin
At least that's the one that has worked for me. I also believe it's case-sensitive and needs to be all lowercase, but I'm not totally sure on that one.
PLEASE COULD ANYONE HELP . im a total novice when it comes to anything with computers and software . my rg35xx stock sd card was causing my console to malfunction so i used your guide to install garlic os on a sandisk64gb card . it worked (which for me is a first , i thankyou) apart from when i go into consoles nothing comes up could someone please help .
