gamerfan Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) I bought 2 units of flash cart Super Everdrive China, a cartridge is for my use and the other for storing and serving replacement, I can not test the replacement cartridge to see if it has any manufacturing defect when I receive it I think of using it for 1 hour to know if you have manufacturing defect is good test?

Punisher5.0 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 That should be plenty. My general rule with cartridge based stuff is if it turns on and can play for a minute with no problems then it's good. I generally do that with games I recently purchased to make sure they are ok before I have time to dedicated to them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Black_Tiger Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 The bootleg Everdrives are notorious for having problems. You should've just bought the real deal and Krikzz would have taken care of any issues. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7800fan Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 ^^ this. Krikzz will not support Chinese made product which may only work with about half of the games (the older half with simplier mapper design, not the newer ones with fancy battery saves, large ROM and etc), and I've heard of some going dead in just a few days. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayik Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 +2 should have gotten original kritzz everdrive. Kritzz support for his products is excellent. I had a four year old Turbo Everdrive die. Kritzz repaired it at no cost. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamerfan Posted May 24, 2016 Author Share Posted May 24, 2016 Super Everdrive krikzz has a very high price in Brazil picked up the china but when receiving the cartridge I want to do a test it to see if it has any manufacturing defect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamerfan Posted May 27, 2016 Author Share Posted May 27, 2016 is there any problem if I buy a super reserve Everdrive china to save and store the cartridge for many years (10, 20, 30 years or more) with the SD card inserted into the cartridge slot? to store the cartridge is advisable to remove the sd card slot to avoid problems? I do not know much about electronics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamerfan Posted June 7, 2018 Author Share Posted June 7, 2018 I have Super Everdrive China Ver. And would like to know if it is possible to recover the system to replay in cases of corrupted system or burning flash memory and replace it with a new flash memory chip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatPix Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 (edited) I don't see any problemw with storing the cart for 30 years (although, if you plan to keep it in store for that long, why not waiting and buy a newer model later?) but I'm not sure SD cards can last 30 years untouched. For burning flash memory, I doubt it. burning or flashing require that the chip accept that, and those chinese versions are more likly to cust on all costs, including the possibility to flash, plus, it's very unlikely that the maker of that version will care about releasing any updates for your Shenzendrive. And since those copies won't use the exact same chips than an Everdrive, Krizz's upgrades (are there even updates for them?) likely won't work on yours.

gamerfan Posted June 8, 2018 Author Share Posted June 8, 2018 (edited) The system of my super everdrive china version. is V12 of Jack China or Jack Diy but I do not know if the V12 Krikzz system can be used in the Chinese copy I want to exchange a flash memory for another similar in this cartridge and recover the system but I do not know if this is possible?

OldSchoolRetroGamer Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 (edited) The system of my super everdrive china version. is V12 of Jack China or Jack Diy but I do not know if the V12 Krikzz system can be used in the Chinese copy I want to exchange a flash memory for another similar in this cartridge and recover the system but I do not know if this is possible? Flashing Chinese knockoffs with Krikzz official firmware will brick them. This has been reported by users and Krikzz himself. This is why they are cheaper, inferior product, inferior quality and no support. Edited June 8, 2018 by OldSchoolRetroGamer 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

godslabrat Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Bottom line: Buying Chinese everdrives is a bad idea, and what you get out of the box is all you're going to get. It works until it doesn't. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamerfan Posted June 8, 2018 Author Share Posted June 8, 2018 I have 2 units of this super everdrive china ver. same as the photo I bought at 1 year and I know it uses flash memory to save the OS firmware and I know that flash memory has a limit of writes and after that limit the flash memory dies, I have to chip compative flash memory saved, when the flash memory die as I retrieve the firmware record on the new flash memory and solder on the everdrive board, i need firmware V12 china Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derFunkenstein Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Another reason they are inferior: some of them don't support all games. For the SNES that's always true. The only way to get close to 100% compatibility is buying an SD2SNES. The Super Everdrive with DSP1-4 support gets most of the way there. The Super Everdrive without DSP support is basically on par with the Chinese ones. Assuming it doesn't short out your system, set your house on fire, and steal your girl first.
