Hey Papa Russ – today i found a way to add syncthing to my anbernic rg35xxH on stock Mod Os. A little bit of tinkering and SSH, change in RA save setting and directory and now my Miyoo Minis, A30s & anbernic RG35xxH are in Sync

I’d love to see an option to add syncthing on Stock Os for the Brick

In reply to Yin.

can confirm this works on android, both with nethersx2 and dolphin. just clicked the gear option and navigated to the storage/emulated/~ and was able to sync everything from the android to the pc and vice versa perfectly fine. No root needed!

Hi russ, you can actually reach the android folder without rooting the android device. I’ve done it by pressing the gear icon on the right side of the blank directory line. This will open a path type of navigation where you can and will be able to link the android/data/nethersx2/files/memcard for example. I was able to reach it on my Odin 2, give it a try and do update the guide after!

wish I could get my Synology’s Syncthing to work again. I changed a setting on it and now when trying to visit the gui it says something like page cannot be found.

Do I need to move my save files and save state files from my Android device to my Windows PC or once I configured it, they’ll be automatically replicated from one folder to the other?

Typing the IP I find in MuOS into safari on a Mac is not doing anything so I’m stuck. Tried both ports :7070 and :8384. No clue how to get the device ID off my RG35XXSP on MuOS. Typing localhost:8384 does open syncthings

for those who are trying to set it up on arkos take note that the config.xml file was moved to ~/.local/state/syncthing, as said here

Any way to change how Knulli or Batocera fork manages saves? I’d really like if my one Knulli device could play nice with my other systems. I don’t like the idea of getting rid of it for another system.

In reply to Matt.

I had the same problem on linux. Although this fix won’t work for you I’ll say it anyways for someone else looking for this information. I also have a suggestion for a windows fix.

Linux fix – install syncthing using apt.syncthing.net (the official) website and NOT the Snap Store.

Windows recommendation – try giving the program administrator permission in properties.

Is there a list of recommended cores per system in order to standardize our selected cores on each device? It would be terrible if I chose the same core on every device only to find out it’s not ideal and that it has a serious flaw or something and then have to change it on all devices.
