Will reflow work in that case or is it just a "last hope" try (meaning that I have chances to have a completely broken piece of hardware)?

It doesn't seem to be clear to a lot of people that I'm actually stuck with this device and I'm looking for technical help, nothing else. And to be honnest, I'm starting to wonder if my Pandora wouldn't be more useful as a doorstep than anything else (actually, I'm sure it would break into...

Hello, A few months ago, I bought a defective Pandora from Craig. I received an email telling me he was selling a "100% Fully working refurbished unit (new silver case, LCD cable, extra battery and carry case while stocks last)" for £120. I was completely unaware of all the scandals behind...

Thanks for your interest hmn! I strongly encourage you to put your work on GitHub in order to be easily available for everyone who want to participate. If I recall correctly, somebody on the forum here made a custom cable to unbrick his Wiz, you definitely should check that out. EDIT: This is...

A year has passed and still my motivation stays the same. I've been into a very busy year, it won't happen again, I promess. I'm very happy some people with some background on Open2X getting interested about the idea.   Also, since backward compatibility seems to be very important to you all...

It'll take time. I knew/suspected theses issues already. If the OS was 100% FOSS it would have been surprising not to see an alternative OS for the Wiz. But I'm sure this great device deserves better than it's original firmware. I spent some time reading the elinux.org wiki and there's quite a...

So far, the kernel and boot loader source code seems to be available at http://dl.openhandhelds.org/cgi-bin/wiz.cgi. We should head that way first.

In my humble opinion, I think this should be considered as a non-issue since most of the sortwares for the Wiz are open-source, you'll just need to recompile them with the new toolchain. Still, there shouldn't any reason not to be "backward compatible" since the OS will still be GNU/Linux based.

Hello everyone! I'm the owner of a GP2X Wiz and a Dingoo A320. Like some Dingoo A320 users, I followed the development of the new GNU/Linux based OS OpenDingux and installed it as soon as it was released. I though that doing the same for the GP2X Wiz could be a good idea for several reasons: *...

Hi Rodolfo! Thank you for such a fast and precise answer. I think you covered much of it. For the question you didn't understood. I meant I was worried that the unofficial SDKs are older than the official one and therefore that it could (maybe?) have an impact on performance or compatibility...

Hello everyone! Some months ago, I bought a GP2X Wiz hoping that one day I'll have enough basis in C and SDL to code something on it (just displaying an image at least). As I still am a newbie, I looked for a documentation and an SDK in order to begin to compile something. First off, I can't...

One week later no one answered. Too crazy for answers ?

Call me crazy, but I've been wondering how hard would it be to port Lugaru on the Wiz. The game is open-source and runs on Windows, OS X and GNU/Linux. I don't think it uses some special libraries that aren't available for the Wiz other than the fact that it's coded for OpenGL and not OpenGL...

Can sound unappropriate, but could you send a photo of it ? I think it's very interesting, since the Wiz has a open SDK (apparently, I still don't understand where to download it) I never thougt a devboard would be necessary.
