Tired of emulators creating tons of images in your picture gallery? Create a .nomedia file. It will hide every image in the same folder (+ subfolders).

The Retroid Pocket 2 Plus has two controller style: Xbox and Retro. If you enjoy the A button (Right) as your select/accept then choose Retro. I'd recommend sticking with Xbox for game and app compatibility.

To set input style or check other input related options: Android setting > Handheld Settings > Input

To enable virtual mouse mode simply hold the Home button for 3 seconds. To disable hold the Home button again for 3 seconds

Early firmware had a screen noise issue. If you put your ear next to the screen while brightness is set to 20%~60% you can hear a faint hum. OTA update 1.8 fixed this issue

Fix Screen Noise

Android Settings > Handheld Settings > Advanced > Control Screen Drive Noise > Remove High Frequency Noise

If you're ever needing to type out your folder path on the device:

Storage	Path
Internal Storage	/storage/emulated/0/
External micro SD Card	/storage/sdcard0/

• External SD card can also appear as /storage/xxxx-xxxx/ (x = random string of numbers). It's best to use /storage/sdcard0/ in this case if your swapping out multiple mirco SD card.
• When switching portable storages to another micro sd card, make sure to re-add the path as the /storage/xxxx-xxxx/ has changed.

To update:Android Settings > System > Updater

• If your having issues checking for updates try changing your WiFi connection and make sure your time zone is correct.
