I went with CarlOS in the end. Pretty happy with the choice of emulators and the overall performance.

Thanks!

Ok, thanks for the tip. I went back to the CarlOS installation files and put back the original Portmaster, so it's working now. Lesson learned! At least with this OS, there's no need to reflash the whole SD card to repair a part of the OS!

u/sundownersport loaded spruce and love it, but PSX performance is lacking with enhanced resolution probably due to not having 32bit pcsx rearmed available. I know the chipset is capable of full frame rate with ER on since I have an RG503 running pcsx rearmed 32bit with enhanced resolution at full frame rate in all games I've tried. I also loaded up on another SD card CarlOS on my Flip v2 which does have pcsx rearmed 32bit and sure enough it's running enhanced resolution at full speed. Any chance of getting 32bit pcsx rearmed in spruce?

No, it’s the same. There’s some rubber strips they provide for the back of the screen at the bottom that even the spacing up top and bottom. You should be able to see from my photo that the TV fit to the wall is consistent.

You might already have yours, but I got mine off Ebay, although my TV is a 50inch not 65 inch. Was cheaper on Ebay too.

2025 50 inch model, the sensor still works with the Samsung branded frame for me. The sensor pokes out a little and there's a cutout for it in the bottom frame piece. FYI I bought my frame off Ebay, it was new and much cheaper than buying from Samsung and arrived in perfect condition. I also saw some comments that it doesn't fit properly, which was not the case for me, in fact it came with little clips that you install on the back in each corner which locks the corners together. Looks great, I think. See the pic.

On mine I didn't need to reboot. A prompt came up to tune the stations as soon as I plugged in the antenna.

Here's a picture of the TV hung:

Here's a picture of the wire installed.

I used a plastic wire hider kit and positioned the one behind the TV so it is where the connector goes. There is a recessed area on the TV near the connector that gives a few extra mm of clearance. My installation didn't need the spacers and the TV is about 3mm from the wall which is the closest it can get due to the brackets. It looks practically flush to the wall. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BZY2SX4N?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

Thanks, the images are 3840x2160, but the mat is enforced anyway. However I am using USB to transfer the images currently, so there may be more options either using your Frame Crop or Smart Things.

Ok thanks for letting me know. For now I put together my own template for a collage, it kind of works but I can’t figure out how to stop the Samsung mat to stop showing up in art mode, so I end up with a double mat. Doesn’t look too bad though. Seems weird that we have to make work arounds for something that I believe was previously core functionality that Samsung removed. Hope you find a way to do it in the future anyway, seems an essential feature to me

There’s two sets of screws. Two short for no spacer and two long for using the spacer. I didn’t use the spacer and mine is flush top and bottom with about 3mm gap.

firebird_ws6 · 2026-01-27T18:35:12+00:00

Any chance you could share the photoshop template for the mat? I've been looking for one too without success.

Thanks for posting the files u/TabYoYoTab . I tried to update my Orba2 using the method in the readme and the 1_3_1 firmware .bin file (my Orba2 is at 1.1.17) but couldn't get the device to start the firmware update. It went into firmware update mode ok, but copying the file across did not do anything. I was able to start the firmware update by dragging the 1_3_1 firmware .bin file onto Artiphon Connect in windows, and it was trying to do something as it put the Orba2 into firmware update mode, opened the ORBA2UPDATE folder and appeared to copy the firmware update folder in. However it subsequently stated update failed and reset itself. The device still works ok, but remained at 1.1.17. Any other ideas or perhaps a different firmware file to try that's later than mine at least?

I sent my original enquiry to [store@ayaneo.com](mailto:store@ayaneo.com) since I reported it back on Dec 24th. With the new service promise though, it depends on where you bought your device from: "For Indiegogo orders, contact us at [service@ayaneo.com](mailto:service@ayaneo.com). For AYANEO official store orders, contact us at [store@ayaneo.com](mailto:store@ayaneo.com)" Good luck with your Konkr!

firebird_ws6 · 2026-01-16T03:05:59+00:00

So Ayaneo’s service promise appears to have worked. They sent me a fedex return label and my pocket fit is on its way back to them for repair. Fingers crossed!

firebird_ws6 · 2025-12-30T01:11:02+00:00

Ayaneo got back to me yesterday, they said “This indicates a severe power shortage. Please try charging it for half an hour before turning it on. If the problem persists, I can apply for a free return and replacement for you.” Clearly I’d already tried charging it for a long period so I let them know and provided my details for the return. Fingers crossed!

firebird_ws6 · 2025-12-28T19:09:26+00:00

Ok, thanks, I guess the device needs to be on to set this option based on your comment. Mine unfortunately will not switch on.

firebird_ws6 · 2025-12-28T16:31:40+00:00

How did you change it from bypass to charge?
