UPDATING TO THE LATEST MIYOO FIRMWARE:
- Remove the battery
- put the SD card in your computer
- Download the software update from the miyoo website, link in the description below.
- Unzip the update and Copy the .img file from the firmware diectory onto the route level of the SD card
- Then copy everything from the TF CARD directory onto the root level of the sd card, overwriting what's there.
- Eject your SD card from your computer
- Remove your SD card and shove it into your miyoo mini.
- Using a 5v charger with a USB a to C cord, plug in the miyoo mini to power from the wall
- DON'T TOUCH IT! If anything interrupts this process, you can brick your device.
- Wait for the software update to finish. It's done when you see the battery charging indicator. Unplug the miyoo mini.
- Put the SD card back in your computer
- Delete the .img firmware update file from the root level of the SD card
- Put it all back together and try out the new MiYoo mini software if you want to. There's not a lot that's different.
UPDATE TO ONION OS
- Turn off the device
If you're using a new SD card like I am you're going to need to make sure it's formatted for FAT32 . Or you can use your old SD card. Make sure you backup your save games if you're using your old SD card.
- Put the SD card in your computer
- Download the latest version of the Onion OS from their github page. Link the the description below. You're looking for the zip at the bottom of the latest post. Unzip that.
- Open the folder in the zip and copy the .tmp_update folder to the root level of your SD card, and when that's done eject the card.
- Put the SD card back in your mini
- Plug in your mini and wait for the onion installer to pop up.
- The installer will walk you through the process. It'll let you choose which systems you want installed by default, which is pretty cool. You can go through and enable anything you want, or press Y to enable everything. You can redo this later from the menu by the way. When you've selected everything you want, press start to install. Let it do it's thing and then you're done!
- Oh one more step is you have to add your roms and bios files if you're using a new SD card. You can actually copy those from the old card if you want. I'm not going to show you how to do all the little stuff here in this step, you can figure this out I'm sure.
