It just does nothing from what I can tell. I can’t even navigate the Main UI.

Does not work on Flashback X.

Did you try the pairing technique? You’re supposed to be able to pair the controller by holding UP+Fire while putting batteries in. Maybe it just needs to be unpaired from the FB9 and paired to the FBX?

Yeah, I don’t know if I’d have the soldering dexterity to do that. Those are very tiny and my eyesight and hand control aren’t what they used to be.

Check your power supply. You may want to try a different one. Sounds like a power problem to me.

You can. There are 4 solder pads as shown in the photo circled in red. I am trying to determine which hole corresponds to which USB wire. I’d rather have this hard wired and tucked away inside the unit than use a Y cable.

Sorry, bumping this...I attempted to "go for it", and destroyed my USB stick. It DID get the LED lit up...I probably destroyed it before I got the power the right way round. Just need to know which leads are which... 5V, GND, Data + and Data -. Is there a way to figure this out by using a multimeter, or some other way that won't destroy my USB stick if I get the wires wrong? ANy help is greatly appreciated! I want to install my USB stick internally and not use that Y cable. Thanks!

You can do this in a batch at the command line. There are various ways. Just google "Remove spaces in filenames command line"

Be sure your filenames do NOT contain any spaces! They will appear in your ROM list but will not load.

I’ve been having fairly good luck with the paddles on my FBX. Be sure your TV is in game mode. Granted, nothing will ever be as 1:1 as an original Atari 2600 on a CRT. But I think the FBX is a very good miniature stand-in.

I believe you're stuck powering on and off, unfortunately. Just like the good old days!

The Flashback 8 Gold Wireless controllers don't work with it, but I don't have access to Flashback 9 controllers, so can't say for sure. They DO seem to be different...you can put FB9 Controllers into a "pairing" mode by holding up + fire while inserting batteries, but this does not happen with FB8 Gold controllers. Also, the FBX board does have an antenna on it which is identical to the antenna used in FB9. Someone needs to try pairing an FB9 controller with the FBX.

Hi all, looking to identify if the red circled pads are a USB port, and if so, what pins correspond to what holes? I know USB is normally 5 pins but I wondered if the ground is somewhere else? also, any idea what the yellow circled pads are for? thanks!

Curiously, a message pops up when you have paddles plugged in about wireless controllers not working when paddles are in use. It may very well already be set to use them.

Tried to do the official upgrade but it's not working. EDIT: Solved. I installed the RockChip Drivers manually and that solved it. Their installer exe wasn't really doing anything apparently.
