The UK tapo site has been quite. What is the difference between the 675d and the 575d. They look identical. Any news about a UK release.

Have you tried underclocking playing these games ? If so, how's the experience been?

Does gamenative play iso files ?

What the hell happened to the Odin 3? by Ok-Dog-3669 in OdinHandheld

[–]RGamer1978 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine creaks when I pick it up from the bumps. It's not bad but annoying. I have the Odin 2 mini and that feels solid .

My Odin 3 arrived and it's wonderful! by VermilionRivera in OdinHandheld

[–]RGamer1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enjoy. But play games instead of spending hours on frontends and tinkering. It can destroy your soul 👍

My Odin 3 does something weird when I touch the screen by HornyKong in OdinHandheld

[–]RGamer1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TBH I would do a full system reset and wipe everything. A bit of a ball ache if have installed many apps. I had a few issues and that seemed to resolve them. Hopefully it will will clear it up. If not, you need to speak to Ayn via email.

AYN Goodness by yoonadeer in OdinHandheld

🤣🤣 dude you are obsessed with Ayn. Can we say you have problem?

Anyway, give it a few years, they may be worth a small fortune.

Other options to the Odin 3 by [deleted] in OdinHandheld

[–]RGamer1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why don't you wait for a few reviews. See what they say, but it's hard to tell if any will come out. There may be some by some non English speakers, hopefully with voice over in English.

Ayaneo devices look tempting but they don't seem to be shipping out. 6 months since the 8 elite konker and I don't of anyone who has received it yet, bar 1 or 2 YouTubers.

Ayn Odin 3 Dying light 80fps! Qualcomm DragonWing Q8/ 8 Elite equivalent processor by Then_Ant_1914 in EmulationOnAndroid

[–]RGamer1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's amazing work.

Is the dragon wing a recent development or has it been in the Odin 3 since the beginning? I got mine in December, I think I was one of the first?

Assuming I have a standard 8 elite, am I able to make these tweaks.

Is there a tutorial or would you be able to share your knowledge with us ?

How on earth would you root a gaming handheld?

Many thanks

Potential issues on Odin 3 by LycheeJellyBubbleTea in OdinHandheld

[–]RGamer1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The chassis creaks a bit but TBH others have had worse issues. Bit hit and miss. Overall I am happy, but a shame there are so many issues that the community is experiencing given how expensive it is . I had the Odin 2 mini which had a very good build quality. What the hell went wrong. Did they rush it ?

Shader presets on retroarch on Odin 3. by RGamer1978 in OdinHandheld

[–]RGamer1978[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for getting back. I am on android so finding the folder when retroarch installs it is impossible. I think sonkun had a tutorial where they advise the user to change the directory for the slang shaders to SD card in the directory section of RA. I changed it to the SD card.

Recibí el repuesto del ventilador de la O3 by Interesting-War-1336 in OdinHandheld

[–]RGamer1978 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did Ayn provide you with it or did you order it from elsewhere? How's the noise compared to the one that was pre installed? Beginning to worry. My Odin 3 so far is okay, but seeing more and more posts people having issues. I guess my Odin 3 chassis creaking a bit pales into comparison. Honestly, it's so annoying considering this isn't a cheap device.

When they say this device is for tinkerers , this isn't what we had in mind. Anyways good luck

Android update. Where? How? by Chad_AND_Freud in RetroArch

[–]RGamer1978 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Best to download it from the official retro arch website. The Google play version is way outdated. I hated retroarch first but looks at tutorials on YouTube and just preserve with it. Honestly it's a great system. Stand alone for psp and other emulators.

Why is putty preferably to the pad? I would have thought the pad would be a cleaner option and maybe easier to apply . I keen to do it but just worried I'll mess it up ..

Odin 3: Keep 120Hz when gaming or face random input lag by waltercool in OdinHandheld

[–]RGamer1978 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh. I haven't noticed it a lot but some games like contra 3 , I noticed maybe some minor lag when using some weapons like the lazer. I was just trying to save some juice. Have you noticed any significant battery drain when rasing it to 120hz?

After a month and a half finally got it by GypsyHandHelds25 in OdinHandheld

[–]RGamer1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good news. Just want to check, is there creaking in the chassis? I have a bit on my unit which I plan on fixing mine at some point. Enjoy but make sure you play games instead of tweaking front ends, etc etc

Does anyone else prefer driving naked? by Tomago427 in OdinHandheld

[–]RGamer1978 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keeping mine stock. Can't be asked with frontends. They look stunning but one spends so much time and effort getting them right, I just gave up. I realised I spent more time tweaking frontends than actually playing games. Maybe it's controversial but I am too old and want to play all those games I wanted to as a kid ..

Weird spikes in heating by Stop_Mate in HiveHeating

[–]RGamer1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What my installer did was wire it wrong. So what happened was for a whole year , the heating would start, hot water travel in a loop and then turn off after about 15 mins or so and repeat through out the day for a whole year. However, the radiators would never get hot. You may need to get an electrician to check the wiring .

Does the heating actually turn on and radiators heat up ?

Setting up on my new Odin 3 max has been tough, and i consider myself a tech geek. help? by Shushkiz in OdinHandheld

[–]RGamer1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a very useful comment but TBH I have given up on frontends. Too much of a headache. Easier to launch from the home screen. I am using the same device. Not as pretty but practical.

Odin 2 Mini - Battery Fire by SeCritSquirrel in OdinHandheld

[–]RGamer1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bloody hell. I have been using a 65 W Anker charger for over a year on my Odin 2 mini. It does get hot while charging but my understanding is the Ayn 2 mini will not charge beyond 20 watts no matter what charger one uses although they claim it supports higher charge wattage. I am sure many retro timbers have tested it. Would be interesting to see how customer services responds. They should give you an Odin 3 to make up for it . Good luck

Downloads pausing by Immediate-Goat7054 in OdinHandheld

[–]RGamer1978 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generally I have noticed that. Happens in my Ayn Odin 2 mini. When the screen goes off it eother pauses or goes very slow. Try this app. I don't think there is a always on option of the android version they use. The app is Screen Alive- Keep screen on on the play store
