The ability to bind button combos would be useful, both for the L2/R2, as well as for savestates. The original pandora build probably didn't need that function since there are plenty of keys to bind on their own. Oh, and if anyone hasn't figured out how to access the BIOS memory card manager...

For OhBoy, try opening up ohboy.rc in a text editor and change the default rom directory there. I remember having trouble changing that too, but don't recall if it was the same problem.

External joysticks will not be able to control the main menus unfortunately. You will have to launch a compatible application to use them. Picodrive is a good test since it automatically binds all USB controllers as player one.

I wish I'd had the foresight to protect the serial number on mine right away. Bloody print rubbed off entirely in the first two days, without sweaty palms or even intentionally touching it. Was annoying to then read in the PDF manual on the disc that all warranties are invalidated if 'The...

Agreed. I noticed that when I was using the Caanoo-branded 4GB bundle SD card (Blue, from Batch 3), it would take eight seconds whenever I first entered the games or apps menus, as it paused to read in all the ini files. When I changed it out for a 32GB class 10, that pause was reduced down to...

The first charge will take rather long, as well as if you let it deplete completely. When finished charging, the red light will go out. The Caanoo will not retain a charge very well at first either (IE, leave it unused for a day and it might be mostly dead when you return). This will go away...

If you bought yours new, it will already have a screen protector out of the box. Just trim away the excess pull-tab in the top right and use a plastic card to smooth out the bubbles if you can, peeling the plastic film up partially and reapplying it with the card if need be. If you find it...

Anything that uses stock USB HID drivers should work natively, and there's now a script to use xbox 360 usb or wireless with usb dongles here. I've been using a tomee SNES pad clone. Compact enough to leave in the pocket on my case for whenever multiplayer will arise.

The usual Gmenu2X workaround will get you TV out. It'll lock up on exit though if 'Don't Leave' isn't turned on for it.

Oldplay should cover your needs, if it works in GINGE or somebody wants to port it. http://dl.openhandhelds.org/cgi-bin/gp2x.cgi?0,0,0,0,6,1154 http://dl.openhandhelds.org/cgi-bin/gp2x.cgi?0,0,0,0,46,2002

Sadly that doesn't seem to help much with latency, or the buttons not registering at all in some games (Sonic and the SNK VS Capcom games will do this, but Metal Slug will be perfectly fine). Sometimes it'll not register four out of five times in a row. Might be a timing issue though. What's...

Super Mario RPG is fairly playable in pocketSNES on the Caanoo. It just needs frameskip. ANY frameskip, even if it is 0. It doesn't seem to like the default auto frameskip for some reason, resulting in 4-5 FPS. I haven't done a full playthrough, but the first half dozen levels or so have...

This may be useful for some things, but the applications still need the networking features to support the module. http://www.gp32x.de/board/index.php?/topic/59084-caanoo-usb-networking-host-cdc-ether/ If I recall right, the Caanoo uses an older kernel that doesn't work with the module for...

Here's some pictures that ED took early on. http://www.openhandhelds.org/Caanoo_Exposed.zip

You can use most Samsung/LG 24 pin connectors. They all have different plastic keyed tabs though, so you may need to trim or file them away. I'm sure somebody can link you to an exact match though. Just make sure to get one with all 24 pins populated, it'll make things much easier. The pinout...

Check your PMs, I've sent you a premade copy of the wrapper I made for the GP2X version of Cave Story. It should not be significantly different from the examples found in the main GINGE thread, but saves time reading through many pages to find out how to make a simple text file in the correct...

Yes, you need the USB Drive option on to enable the USB host. I've used multiple USB joysticks on Picodrive, MAME, GNGEO(NeoGEO), and Capex(CPS2). They can all be configured to be used as a first/second(or third/fourth/etc where available via USB hub.) player's controls if you wish, though I...

Needs to be the USB host port. The gamepad also needs to use standard HID drivers, which a lot of modern gamepads don't seem to do anymore. I've been using a cheap little compact Tomee SNES clone, and it works. USB controllers are handled entirely by the individual application as far as...

Some problematic applications will display correctly on the TV out if you run them from Gmenu2X.

I still think it may be a card lock issue. The way they work, the switch itself does nothing electrically, it's just a piece of plastic that changes position to trigger a small switch or sensor inside the card slot or not. If the slot is defective to where they don't fit together properly this...
