Update: four hours after releasing this video, the team fixed the audio issue! Check out the written guide in the video description for instructions on how to fix the audio.
Help!!! I already installed the version for my 351p, but it does not start the operating system, it freezes for a few seconds while the loading screen appears after it just shuts down the console, I thought it was the black screen error, but the power led shows that the device turned off.
Russ does a better job highlighting enhancements and supporting the 351 community than the company itself. Makes the system feel less like a device and more of a platform like the raspberry pi. Thanks for all your hard work on this!
All videos 10/10. Informative, teaching, to the point, A+ editing. Thank you for providing this service! Please revisit this Firmware in the future with another review as it progresses.
We have to congratulate those guys. They really do a nice work, with no payment and all of this for us. I bet they enjoy messing around with these systems just like we enjoy tweaking emulators and stuff but, surely, is not a easy job.
Thanks for the info as always, Russ. I'll give this OS a miss. I'm simply too content with 351Elec on my RG351V. Those two go together like bread and butter. I honestly can't see any "value-add" to my current Arcade Handheld setup when I can use a PC/Tablet/Phone to do a much better job of most of the other "also have" features 351Droid has.
It's really cool though, I'm loving ArkOS on my RG351V, I find Dreamcast, Naomi and Atomiswave to be much faster than 351elec. I'm really excited to see if Vulkan works on this, now that it has Android.
@@mikewifak They're both great! Try em both, I got a few micro sd cards with 351 elec on one, the original on another and ArkOS and the one that's currently being used. If you had the V you could easily swap them out and keep your games on the 2nd card.
@@KyleRuggles I will have to scrounge around for an extra card. Might get some nasty looks from the wife if I go dumping any more cash into my dalliance with handheld retro gaming.

I have never seen so much community support for one little line of products like this. The modding community has gone above and beyond making the 351 devices just absolutely phenomenal. I still think the RG351M is the Rolls Royce of 3:2 aspect ratio gaming.

I like the buzz over this little console because it's not really a huge upgrade over 350 series... But when the next one comes out, I believe we'll all want one.
One of the best benefits is using something like Foldersync and getting cloud backups of your games and having it auto sync. You can do that on Android, and not on any other OS available.
Good video Russ, I'll be keeping an eye on this for sure. Funny you mentioned about xbox pausing at the load menu, when I loaded up Open dingux on my 350M following your walk through I can not get certain PlayStation games to run on the beta version. Destruction Derby 2 will stop at the loading screen and MGS won't even make it to the start screen. I don't know of its something I'm doing wrong or if it's a glitch with the Beta ps emulator?
Quick question, as far as I can tell a tempered glass screen protector doesn't exist on Amazon, but since the screen is 3.5in, some camera ones seems like they would work. Have you had any experience with this?
Props to Anbernic for making the good hardware and extra thanks to these developers pushing the limits to make these rg351p a quality product as a whole. Best handheld out there if you don't want to splurge on a onexplayer or other full blown windows handheld.
Great Videos. I’m thinking of getting a retro handheld system. Should I go ahead and get a 351 model or should I just wait for the next iteration at this point?
Depends on what you want to play. The 351 is great for emulating up to late 90s. I have my eye on the new Odin handheld. Supposedly starts at $199 and powerful enough to play Gamecube games. Hopefully the IGG campaign will begin soon!
@@elinscheid I think I’ll just get a powkiddy v90 for now. At the very least the leaks for the 552 look very promising and I might get that in a few months and pass the cheap v90 down to my mom as a Tetris machine lol
While I love the video and the android project is cool, I hope there are always devices available that come with small simple os's like 351elec. They are 100x easier and simpler to use and even with android gaming devices on hand, I only use my rg351. I find android just way to clunky and takes a long time to set up, especially for an all in one emulation device. Still cool, but wont switch until its as simple as EmuElec.
Yeah, I hate Android. Slow, bloated system with inherent input latency. Getting a RP2 was a massive mistake, that I corrected with a 351M. Android is not for gaming.
*Has the best N64 performance of any OS I've ever seen on this device *RGC says it's terrible and slow. I'm so confused. How can I run N64 games on a RG351P so that it looks better than this? Also, did you solder some kind of WiFi card to the board? How do you have internet on that RG351P?
There's Chicken! Looks like she can detect when you're having Retro Game Frustrations HAHA In all seriousness though, this is an amazing step for the 351 series. The more this build matures, the more the Retroid Pocket 2 loses its single biggest selling point, which is a (more-or-less) functioning Android OS with accessibility options to make up for its non-touch screen. Anbernic and Retroid will go head-to-head on this one, but the release of the next-gen handhelds (RP3, 199/Valhalla, KT R1) might change that.
It's quite long, about 53 seconds right now. I'm sure they can whittle that down over time, right now the team is focusing on some fundamental features first. Luckily it has a nice sleep mode, so you could always use that for more convenience!
@@RetroGameCorps you really should make a video comparing the cold boot times of the various OS options that are available for the 351M/P I think the boot time is a really important thing to consider if the device/OS fits your needs
I have other problem with otg ports. I can't connect to wi-fi by wifi dongle, first i bought chinese one, then I bought one from TP-link that is supported and still it won't works. Im thinking about buy wi-fi chip and giveing it to my friend to mount it...
For some reason I can't get chrono cross to run without stuttering with 351elec. I'm gonna try this out and see if I can get that game to run better. With 351elec I have no issues with psx besides that game lagging like crazy during battle transitions and animations.
Cool! I really like it, I always set it to the RGUI interface to make it feel like a super simple everdrive style interface. Boots in like 10 seconds, it’s great for people who don’t care about themes, box art and all that jazz. I always call it the “no-BS OS!” 😂
Could you make a video on how to install Undertale from the Steam store. Love what you did with Shovel Knight on your web sight. Can't figure out how to get Linux version of Undertale off Steam for Amber ports.
*Press Win+R and open "steam://open/console" (Steam will now show console command) *Enter "download_depot 391540 391544" (It will eventually show download location) Lemme know if this works, I might have the numbers turned around^^
My 351P came with a microSD that had some games. But I immediately replaced that generic brand card with a larger, quality card and copied over the games I wanted to play.
I think I'll give it a go on my RG351V in a few weeks' time. Just to see how it rolls. Is it at all possible to get everything to work _without_ external keyboard/mouse or is that a prerequisite so far?
Something tells me we’re going to need a more powerful chip for N64. Talking of which, do you know when the Vita N64 video is going up? Looking forward to that one, though I’m thinking the performance is similar to the 351p.
ArkOS was able to run Mario 64 at full speed on Mupen64, so I think there is benefit to having more linux-based OSes to narrow the overhead. I do agree that we're not too far from the wall of the hardware, but if this can do PSP reasonably well why is it stumbling while the PC Mario port runs fine? Sounds like a software issue.
Such a good looking device, nice hardware specs and then the need to use mouse and keyboard to "control a retro emulation system". Just booting in something like retroarch and avoiding the "modern needs" would be more sufficient to me.
Great video, but I’m a bit confused, then what’s the best configuration for RG351, I mean, best operative system, emulators etc. You have released many videos about this console, doing different and interesting things, but at the end I don’t know what you are supposed to keep or remove from your console 🥲
Well, I think that either ArkOS or 351ELEC are your best bet for this device, Each have their own merits. This 351DROID firmware is still very much in testing, I wouldn't recommend it as your daily driver.
Probably not something I'd wanna try right now. When development is more mature and the bugs have been addressed though, definitely. Working sound would be nice for starters.
I only use my RG351P for GBA and have no desire to do anything else with it. Are there any benefits this offers for GBA over the default OS? Nice video btw.
Nope, I would stick with the default OS or upgrade to 351ELEC for better save game management. Either way, the jump to 351Droid won’t be worth it for GBA alone.
Hi! I just got a RG351p, whats the best system and firmware that i can use for it nowadays? ELEC351 looks amazing, but i dont really know... Your content has helped me so much man, thank you!
Can this be added to the R36S? I only have that, not a rg351p. I flashed lineage and replaced the dtb and boot files but it still didn't boot. Is it even possible?
I'm trying to flash 351Droid on my RG351P but it's getting stuck on the first splash screen which also says 351Droi without D at the end. Am I doing something wrong? Can it be the size of the SD card which is only 8GB?
I wonder which Android games could be playable. That's the one thing I'd want a Retroid Pocket 2 for. Just to test try out some games other people didn't.
It's definitely cool how you can run Android on these now but honestly I feel like that kinda defeats the purpose of these 351 devices. Neat video for showing it off and how to set it up but it's not something I would want to use.
I own a RG351P and a Rg351V and on the Rg351V I’m running Arkos the new update runs Dreamcast and N64 nearly perfect downside is ps1 and psp have issues but I just play them on the RG351P can finally play Conkers BFD on the go and Goldeneye plays pretty decent as well
can you help me i try what u said but when i insert the sd card and boot it work but it stop in booting 351DROID then it turn off the devices plss help^^
Nevermind, guess my system wasn't at the charge level it needed to be in order to proceed further. Charged it fully and it booted up. Hopefully that might help

Nope, I would stick with the default OS or upgrade to 351ELEC for better save game management. Either way, the jump to 351Droid won’t be worth it for GBA alone.
Hi! I just got a RG351p, whats the best system and firmware that i can use for it nowadays? ELEC351 looks amazing, but i dont really know... Your content has helped me so much man, thank you!
Hi, at this point I think 351ELEC is probably the most active firmware, although the final release of ArkOS is still really good!
@@RetroGameCorps Thanks!!
all we need now is a touch screen
Can this be added to the R36S? I only have that, not a rg351p. I flashed lineage and replaced the dtb and boot files but it still didn't boot. Is it even possible?
Yo, I have the same keyboard! I rarely ever use it but it's great to have one of those around.
Haha, same -- I only use it for scenarios like this :)
I'm trying to flash 351Droid on my RG351P but it's getting stuck on the first splash screen which also says 351Droi without D at the end. Am I doing something wrong? Can it be the size of the SD card which is only 8GB?
Yes yes yes 😂
I wonder which Android games could be playable. That's the one thing I'd want a Retroid Pocket 2 for. Just to test try out some games other people didn't.
Hi, which portable retro console do you think is the most productive?
Russ you need to get a sponsorship from SanDisk or something. I can't even imagine how much of your budget goes towards SD cards. ;P
I just dropped $300 on bulk SanDisk SD cards the other day, that should last me through the next six months (fingers crossed)...
Lakka has also release a firmware for the rg351. It's pretty much a standalone retroarch os. Just flashed it and it looks pretty promising.
I’m actually playing with it right now!
Usb dongle wifi not working on 351droid
Question:Can i install the 351driod firmwear to one sd card and have the default firmwear on another?
It's definitely cool how you can run Android on these now but honestly I feel like that kinda defeats the purpose of these 351 devices. Neat video for showing it off and how to set it up but it's not something I would want to use.
Could you test pokeMMO open microwave and max payne for Android on the 351p?
I own a RG351P and a Rg351V and on the Rg351V I’m running Arkos the new update runs Dreamcast and N64 nearly perfect downside is ps1 and psp have issues but I just play them on the RG351P can finally play Conkers BFD on the go and Goldeneye plays pretty decent as well
Wow! Looks like my OG ZPG!
can you help me i try what u said but when i insert the sd card and boot it work but it stop in booting 351DROID then it turn off the devices plss help^^
Nevermind, guess my system wasn't at the charge level it needed to be in order to proceed further. Charged it fully and it booted up. Hopefully that might help
Could you make an updated video about 351droid and other devices like RGB10 MAX/max2?
