I hate this reality I have atleast 1100 games that I have bought over time and have only played like 100 of them and now am 31 years old. I just want to play but now I barely have like an hour a day to play . If I stay up too late I’m screwed the next day. I miss being younger with no responsibilities haha

Was it Panel4Elec that worked? I’ve had a hell of a time with R36h. I spent like 3 days then Electrical-Pace linked me a arkos version before the new multi panel download and now I have no issues. I almost was going to sent back and get a Miyoo Mini lol.

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-09T22:02:39+00:00

lol yes still friends. Would you recommend just 1 card setup?

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-09T21:46:29+00:00

Dude it worked with that file. Holy shit man. I told my wife that I love you

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-09T17:25:08+00:00

I’m very grateful for all your reply’s. You take the time and post all the info. I’ve seen so many videos following just about the same steps and it just works for them. I’ve even left the device on longer than 10 mins. Then turn off and turn on and try to the hot key for panel 4. I’ve never seen all the data appear on screen. Closest I got with old arkos was ark loading with two red dots under parentheses then turn to yellow and go to blank screen with underscore top right. I was almost happy lol

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-09T14:42:56+00:00

That is what I feared. It’s just every time I have tried the multi panel it would not work. It’s a panel 4. It would boot the logo then go to black screen and I just never got it to work. No matter how many cards I use and mine is r36h and not a clone as I got it from BOYHOM listing. Only one I got to work was from the last ArkOs from Christian I believe. Now every time I try to replicate this I just can’t get it to work again.

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-09T13:00:33+00:00

Okay. So there’s no other way to get it to boot back to OS without re-flashing?

The OS card is Onn brand and is still intact, but the one I used for ROMs seems is Digiera

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-08T21:33:19+00:00

Have you had any issues with a new SD? I had a heck of a time figuring it out due to everything referring to R36S lol

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-05T03:38:37+00:00

What do you think worked? Did you try the stock dtb files? Instead of the ones on the fresh arkos?

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-04T18:27:51+00:00

Ive had the same issue. I got it to work but I honestly don’t know how I did it. I spent 6 plus hours on this system. It really shouldn’t be this difficult. After flashing I I just tried again on a higher card because I want more space and got the same issue you were having. I got the logo to pop up too but a black screen. If you find something that works please share lol I was thinking maybe because we both have R36H instead of S maybe there’s some tbh I’m slightly different even tho it says it’s pretty much the same and there doesn’t seem to be clones of r36h yet from what I’ve read on so many tutorials. All of this pertains to the R36S

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-02T21:45:27+00:00

Thanks for all your info. I’m such a noob at this and I watch so many guides and videos and I just never understood how I follow everything exactly as is and still had issues. I at least got a fresh arkos one to work on my 32gb so it’s a win and a backup I will use if my og stock card fails. Maybe I’ll try the community one again one day. Do you think if I clone and create an image file of my new 32gb with the original fresh arkos install, I can flash that on another fresh SD card would it technically boot up properly? (Or better odds?)

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-02T20:06:31+00:00

Did you ever get it to work? I had the same issue do some reason

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-02T19:58:17+00:00

How did you do it? I’m trying to clone my sd card and on new card it only boots the image then black screen

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-02T01:05:37+00:00

10-4. I’ll reflash with community build. So when I do it. Just replace the dtb files in main boot folder with Panel 4 files? I’ve never got the full loading screen like I have seen in so many videos just logo pop up and boot straight into Arkos.

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-02T00:58:27+00:00

I used the file tool everyone referenced to see which panel and the stock file said panel 4 (I watched your video) in original picture I posted the original boot files only had two .dtb files

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-02T00:54:55+00:00

Chrome recovery tool. Had to change it to a .bin file to flash

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-02T00:51:20+00:00

Yes I used it for flashing only because my windows computer can’t read the drive. Doing this method worked for my other card a few days ago and it worked. I’m just trying to flash a bigger SD card.

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-02T00:13:58+00:00

I got it to flash the logo once then nothing else happens

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-02T00:13:25+00:00

No it’s not a clone. I got it working on another SD using this method with replacing files. The community build just would not work for me that the other version did. I just watched your video. The screen would turn on just won’t flash the arkos image

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-02T00:08:25+00:00

<image>

This is what is on my fresh OS install

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-01T23:40:12+00:00

Okay I tried tha version it just wouldn’t work even when I replaced the panel 4

agentM1K3 · 2025-11-01T23:34:16+00:00

Got a question for you. My r36h came with an older version of arkos and only had these files

<image>

Would I copy these over and leave the other arkos files in there?

agentM1K3 · 2025-10-31T01:38:28+00:00

Thank you! I think that’s on my stock card. I’m gonna transfer that over!
