    Thanks to forum member Link!

    Hello, So, my OpenPandora was wounded in action and thanks to forum member Link it's now back to work. I had gotten the Pink Screen (I have a first batch Pandora) and it was recommended that I open it and check to make sure the ribbon cables on the LCD assembly had not wiggled loose...

    Porting DoomRL to the OpenPandora?

    The new version uses a graphical interface that does look OpenGLish. But there is a slightly older version that is ASCII based, ala Angband or Nethack. Asking over on their forums if it was possible to get an ARM port, I got this reply: "In theory I don't think there is anything technical...

    Setting up an SD Card swap file for dummies.

    Which one yields better performance for the system? SD install or NAND install? Also, I followed the guide on GP32X... the terminal command for making the swap file "sudo mkswap..." makes the terminal report "Device or resource busy." It shouldn't be busy. It's a blank SD card that I just put...

    Setting up an SD Card swap file for dummies.

    Hello, I have been trying to set up an SD card to use as a swap file for my Pandora. However, everything I've read (on the forum or otherwise) is about five times above my knowledge level. Could someone break it down for me, elementary grade style, on how to get this accomplished? Thanks...

    Porting DoomRL to the OpenPandora?

    I spaced that, haha. Yeah I guess it wouldn't run on an OP without some sort of emulation because it's an ARM processor. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Android is run on ARM devices, correct? (Last time I did anything Computer Science-y was when Pentium 4's were new. Forgive me.) If that's the...

    Porting DoomRL to the OpenPandora?

    Hey guys, So I would really like to see DoomRL make an appearance on the OpenPandora. (http://doom.chaosforge.org/) I, however, know absolutely nothing about porting a game... but I do know the mantra is "no source, no port." The developers over there do have a stable Linux build, and I...

    Where is this? I've been wanting to use an RPG Maker on the Pandora ever since I got it.

    How reliable is the Pandora?

    I travel a lot with Uncle Sam. I've lugged around gigantic laptops before and trust me, adding 10lbs to the rest of your junk is no fun. I got my hands on the OpenPandora as fast as I could. Great for emulation obviously, which I love me some old school gaming. It even does newer stuff. Just...

    Screen cable is starting to go out

    I'm comfortable putting it back in. The reason it snapped in the first place is because the lid hinge is very tight and I applied too much Berserker strength without thinking "I should probably snake the LCD cable through the hole first," like an idiot. I honestly don't mind paying for it...

    Screen cable is starting to go out

    Are you willing to part with one? Of course, I'll pay for it. :P I like having a spare part or two.

    Screen cable is starting to go out

    Replying to my own question, haha. See attached picture. Going in to reseat it, I managed to snap the cable completely in half. (EvilDragon was NOT kidding when he said be careful!) So... I need a new LCD cable. How do I order one? Thanks.

    Screen cable is starting to go out

    Hello, I'm starting to see the symptoms of the screen cable wearing out (pink lines.) It only does it if I move the lid while it is on. I was also wondering about ordering a new battery so I have a spare. Is it possible to order another cable so I can install it myself? I wouldn't mind a...

    Hotfix 6 RC update

    My wifi was spotty with HF5, and I downgraded to HF4 which I used until HF6 came out. Yeah, I mostly grab the PNDs with my computer and transfer them to SD. Most of the included software in HF5 (Midori, etc.) has been moved to standalone PNDs. Check out repo.openpandora.org and search for...

    TV-out questions

    Hello guys, I'm interested in experimenting with my OpenPandora on an HDTV. I've been seeing some mini HDMI to HDMI cables in my local electronics shop; would one of these work as a TV-out for my Pandora? Or is the TV-out on my Pandora proprietary to the cables the OP team is making? Thanks...
