If your device is currently not booting, and you've modified the bios folder in any way (e.g., patching a new boot logo, upgrading firmware, etc.), you can attempt to get the SF2000 booting again by creating empty text files inside the bios folder, one at a time (this creates new FAT entries, and should get you away from numbers of entries the stock bootloader doesn't like). For example, create an empty file in the bios folder called "temp1.txt", put the microSD card back in the SF2000, and see if it boots. If it still doesn't, add a "temp2.txt" file to the bios folder, put the card back in the SF2000 and try booting again, etc..
So just add a ton of files until it boots?
Ww should definitely make this community grow. This guy was a life saver and I pay it forward to my neighbor who had the bootbug issue.
There is a fix to the bug when it already happend
This is the most comprehensive video tutorial for SF2000 so far but I'm still waiting for the fix on device hang on some other games when saving/loading.
100%! When I save a game it's to play later not to find out it's frozen there and I have to start over. Mind you mine is fully stock (and it isn't my primary) but still... I'm at a point where - do I spend the time on the device or just favorite a bunch of "no save no worries" games. Still, I've already gotten enough fun out of it to justify the low cost and love it as a beater I can not worry about. If I knew then what I know now I'd still pick one up, I guess that is enough for me for now...
Try firmware 1.71
This is great. Thank you for the detailed tutorial.
Thanks dude ❤
Thank you so much, I saved some $ using your link, thank you 🎉
Great video! Could you also do another video with sf2000 multicore mod? Thanks :)
You're a great help! Will try your steps soon
Thank you very much for this video. I recently ordered the console.
No problem. Hope you like it!
Thanks, very helpful!
Nice overview. I worked on Tadpole and the themes don’t replace the boot logo. They often do change the music.
If you want to do most of this with tadpole, here’s a long overview I did of the features ua-cam.com/video/lgkWnIScfQQ/v-deo.htmlsi=-yDHs39sJ0FxOX-T
Thank you. Actually while I was testing I selected one or two themes that changed everything, it could be my mistake because I was making multiple notes of all the features of the software. But yes, the music was changing almost all the time. But it’s a very helpful all in one tool. Especially for changing the shortcut icons.
I didn't want to change boot logos because users might not have updated their bootloader so it is much more likely they will hit the bootloader bug. Theme data only changes files in the /Resource folder
I think it’s good that you didn’t. If by any chance you can do the same with the music then it would be great too. But it’s nothing to lose sleep over. That’s why I mentioned, for themes we can just pick & choose what we want according to our preferences. Thanks for all the great work! We really appreciate it. Hopefully more systems like this will be made available & we can get more awesome custom tools like this to tweak & modify these systems.
I'll Always Be Watching...
Best yet!
Thank you for the tutorial.
You are welcome!
also can you use Tapole to safely delete duplicate and Non-Working ROMS from the sf2000? a video showing how to do this would be great!
What back up files do I need for the battery meter fix?
thanks very useful
amazing
thats nice and all but still on one explains where to get the game files
Does this play SNES games without performance drops?
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Says it cant recognize the USB when i connect the SF-2000 to the computer, it there any other way to do it? Do i gotta buy a card reader? Tried with my phone but it dosent show up as a Drive, just the phone name.
How do you get the card out
I noticed on the latest versions we get new features from the early released model. My question is this. Is the boot loader bug still an issue? will Tadpole allow me to change the theme, boot logo, music, and favorites art on a newer version? Just trying to figure out what I need and can do with your tutorial in this video. Thanks
It’s still was an issue during the time of me making the review of the product & this tutorial. I don’t think much has changed. It’s better to go with the fix just to be on the safe side. And for changing the stuffs that you want to, just follow through, I have shown everything in details.
Thanks I will give it a shot!@@DrBrute7
I just ordered mine for $11
i got mine for $9
i added GBA games, but they won't open when i try to open them from the GBA system section, only if i go to user roms and run them from there.
Nobody mentioned before buy isnt it beter to use a good micro sd?
yes, the ones that are included are often unreliable
I bought Sandisk microSDHC UHS-I A1 32GB (top is red and bottom is gray). Now I able to use new firmware and add roms to it.
Is more expensive the SD than the Sf2000😂. No way
I can't play game zip coolrom added in arcade , loading ....😢, I not has file .skp . How?
my bsirv file has an error.
WARNING: Version 1.7 bisrv.asd detected; this version has known issues with SNES save states and is not recommended for use
where can I get a valid one?
I can't add roms of arcade games (I'm trying with RENEGADE, my favorite one)
Can the Data Frog SF2000 run Fan translations of Super Famicom RPGs like the English translation of Seiken Densetsu 3?
I haven’t tried it. But if it’s a snes game I don’t see a reason why.
Thanks Dude.@@DrBrute7
Very good video 👍 If I want to change to better sd card is 32gb supported. Can I just copy files from the original and will it work then with the new sd card. Does all of these things you showed work with firmware version 1.6.
You can use a 32 gb card. But the copying process is not that simple.
@@DrBrute7please teach us
can i play snes games like : terranigma , metal warriors, chrono trigger, lost Vikings 1 , 2 . ?
Is there a way to dim the screen its too bright...
How do you save games on this system???
what all do i need to do if i upgrade the sd card?
Just transfer all the sd contents to the new sdcard & you’re set.
So I have a question and you seem to me the man that might know so I was wondering can you change the sd card and have like a Samsung one and put the files on that. I tried to do this I reimaged the sd with everything but when I put the new sd card in the device it didn't work do you know how to do this. As I know the sd cards they normally use for these kind of devices always mess up with the save files for example don't save the game. Any ideas and thank you for this video so much help!
I haven’t tried it myself but from what I have come across, you need to make a clone of the sd card using a cloning software, then flash it on a new card. Let me see if I can get a spare sd then I can experiment it myself & make a video on it. As I have gotten the same question a couple of times regarding this.
@DrBrute7 ahh that would be awesome thank you!
I have had a few of these generic sd cards fail in other handhelds that I own. Would love to see a guide how to clone the original card to a better quality card. Thanks for all your work BTW.
hi, I need your help, I made a copy of the SD as soon as I bought the console. while trying other games the sd stopped working, I copied the entire previously saved content but it doesn't work. what should I do ?
Hmm, this is something I haven’t faced. Have you tried using a different memory card? Or you copied it to the same sd
Is the sd card in the right format? I imagine it needs to be fat32. But it likely came as ntfs
Hey friend!
Any way to take the roms from this device in this strange "z" format, and convert them back to say, NES (go from .zfc to .nes) format?
Thanks!!
I don’t think so. But I can’t say for sure as I never tried it.
@@DrBrute7 thank you 😊
Hello, I don't know why tadpole It doesn't work, it says something that tadpole can damage the microSD of the SF2000, is there another method to customize my SF2000?
I haven’t heard of this anywhere. As per my personal experience I haven’t faced any issues with tadpole. Besides, the system files are nothing complicated for them to get damaged, neither the sdcard. If it’s specifically not working for you that’s a different issue. Unfortunately this is the only gui based software that is available. The other one doesn’t have all the features I have demonstrated through tadpole.
what's name of the last game.
Can u simply copy roms into the folders on the sd card without any software
Yes you can. This is only when you want to add in thumbnails & do your own customization.
@@DrBrute7 the main thing I want to do is add my mario snes rom hack, how would I add them?
My save states don't won't for the snes?
How to change game without turning off?
hold select and start, there should be an option to quit
is there a way to fix the lag on the gba games?
Not for now. But if the scene release a stable cfw build for this then it can improve performance. It’s still in the works.
Try firmware 1.71
16:21 Was that a joke sound effect or did he just shit himself?
You got me. I just shit myself. But I kept going with the video & that right there is dedication!
@@DrBrute7 yes it is my friend. Thank you for pushing through.
I almost shat myself today. No joke. My wife and I are leaving the house to go buy a new used car and we have to leave like right now. Suddenly I feel like I have to poop.
I was stuck in a transaction for well over an hour. Insurance company and such.
Let's just say, I drove home pretty fast. Passed the wife in our new car on the highway.
Oh and I chugged a litre of water before leaving the house too. It was rough.
Yes, I could have used a public washroom, but I didn't that's another story.
Can I add Nintendo 64 on too?
The cpu on this console is not powerful enough to emulate that.
hahaha
