first off, i wanted to say hello, my names pvp from acidmods.com. the acidmods modding team has modded nearly every console out there and we've decided to start working on consoles that noone(or at least few) has done any hardware modifications to. and after some researching, we've decided the gp2x was worth a shot at. from what i gather only about 2-3 (correct me if im wrong) hardware mods have been done.
now ive searched your forums for about a week now, and i have got to say it's quite confusing with so many topics jumbled. so im going to ask some questions, if you know the answer or got any opinions by all means jump right in.
-first off other than touchscreen and dpad what are the differences between a f100 and f200? i mean like software compatibility between the two. is the latest fw of the f100 better than the f200. which one has better features.
-ive read that the f100 has usb wifi capabilities while the f200 does not because of hardware limitations. any news on that at all or is it still stuck at that?
-how do you feel about the size of the gp2x? do you feel that its unusually light for its size? would you prefer a thinner shell? (we might be working on a prototype shell thats thinner)
-has anyone wired a battery (other than the AA) to the gp2x?
-for overclocking, what is the fastest you can get the f100 and f200 to go? which one is more stable at higher clock speeds?
-would you prefer the f100 or the f200? big question here. this will determine which console we will be modding. please give us as MUCH details as humanly possible
we'd like to do some serious modding and if you guys would like to check out our work on handhelds, by all means go to our forums at www.acidmods.com
we're just trying to jump into unconquered handhelds and in the process if it helps you get the gp2x name out there and get more people involved then we're all for it.
for all of you that are interested in what we plan to do, here is a small list of mods that we have wired up and prepared for the arrival of the gp2xs.
-razor nubs wired to dpad and facebuttons (razor nub is our codeword for taking the psp analog stick and making it digital) they will be placed where the speakers are located
-relocation of the speakers
-sound activated rumble (small rumble motors wired thru IC to your speaker ports to emulate rumble at certain tones of sounds)
-rechargeable psp battery interfaced to the power input (will charge it if plugged in)
-internal hdd (will use the usb host mod but making it internal)
-internal tv/audio output plugs (plugs will be integrated into gp2x's shell
all these mods have been done to other handhelds and have been proven successful, so we are 100% sure they will transfer over to this console.
admins if you could PM me, maybe we could setup some type of networking between our 2 sites since we have just set up a gp2x board in our site.
and thats basically it, just wanted to say hi and ask some questions and get to know people. im going to be at acidmods very often but will try and stop by here as much as i can. if you have any opinions, by all means, say them as they will help out in our modding design of the gp2x. thanks!
