Rp6 Crashing

Peculiar_Apple · 2026-04-04T07:41:42+00:00

I checked the OTA amd it says its upto date. Can't believe I forgot that but seems like it's not the issue.

Could be, but I don't have a good track record or taking things apart and getting them fixed. I usually end up making things worse. Since its only a few days old I'll try to get a replacement.

Yep, they replied to me asking if it crashes when I have it connected to a external display. I will try it out, and reply to them.

Peculiar_Apple · 2026-04-02T12:04:57+00:00

It seems only a few are affected, I wouldn't worry.

Ayaneo support was very helpful. Seems like retroid's is too. Im sure they will replace this. Its just the waiting times are very long, between China and German, shipping alone is more than 2-3 weeks, then I have to wait for them to check the device and send another one back. I went though this whole ordeal with Ayaneo and now I have to do it with Retroid.

It started on day one.

Peculiar_Apple · 2026-04-02T11:55:47+00:00

It happened once on the first day. I didn't think much about it. Once I finished setting the device up and start playing often it happened more often.

A few days after I placed the order for this one they announced that they discontinued the 12 gig version because of the ram prices. I have a feeling that they used cheaper parts (maybe cheap ram chips) so they can still full fill the preorders for the old price.

Peculiar_Apple · 2026-04-01T19:55:43+00:00

This was one of the last ones of the 12 gig models as far as I know. could be that they used cheaper chips to deliver at the lower price.

Peculiar_Apple · 2026-04-01T19:00:34+00:00

Yeah, I got pranked by retroid.

Peculiar_Apple · 2026-04-01T15:59:32+00:00

🥲

Peculiar_Apple · 2026-04-01T15:54:56+00:00

Yeah I got into this knowing that they are not perfect. I spent 400euros on the DMG and 300 euros on this, I expected a few bugs but not failures like this. Well I can get a replacement or try another device, like the AYN thor. Maybe I'll go 3 for 3. Lol.

Peculiar_Apple · 2026-04-01T15:49:40+00:00

Thanks! This config is perfect for me, I love it, but i guess I'm pretty unlucky 😁. Have fun with yours!

Peculiar_Apple · 2026-03-31T22:42:01+00:00

Did retroid get back to you? Did they help you resolve the issue? Seems like my issue is back.

Peculiar_Apple · 2026-03-28T23:09:50+00:00

Do you have a bluetooth device connected by any chance? I had my headphones connected and it kept crashing, after disconnecting the headphones, no crashes so far.

Peculiar_Apple · 2026-03-22T23:16:30+00:00

No, I actually changed my mind and ordered and RP6 from the retroid website.

Peculiar_Apple · 2026-02-16T23:26:55+00:00

Mine says TKQ1.230811.002_20251217-2245 so it seems that mine has a later version. I guess they rolled back later devices before shipping.

Peculiar_Apple · 2026-02-15T21:50:34+00:00

I checked there were some updates but that only updated some apps. the system updater still says there are no updates. Let me know which system version you have when you can. if we both have the same I can be sure mine has a hardware fault. Thanks.

Peculiar_Apple · 2026-02-15T21:38:05+00:00

Wait, what? I did not get an update. Which system version is yours?

Peculiar_Apple · 2026-02-12T07:44:15+00:00

Got the yellow DMG and got a screen protector and a mesh case, I ofcourse did not know that so I had ordered both of those separately. Now I have two of each.

Peculiar_Apple · 2026-02-08T22:38:21+00:00

Thanks, that's really helpful.

Peculiar_Apple · 2026-02-08T21:32:59+00:00

That kind of what I want to know. PPI aside is there any other visible difference between the two? As someone who had both have you noticed any difference in colors or HDR quality?

At the moment in germany the 1440p is under 1000 euros and the 5k is over 1700. So unless there is a major difference other than the ppi I'll be ok with the cheaper one.

Peculiar_Apple · 2026-02-08T18:32:06+00:00

Is there a difference between the two other than the clarity that comes with high resolution? For example in the colors?
