![THIS is How I Set Up Android Handhelds! [RP2s Setup Guide]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/evuTu5fnDls/mqdefault.jpg)
Perfect timing! My RP4 pro just showed up in the mail today and I was about to watch your older RP3+ set up guide when this popped up. This community wouldn't be what it is without you. Thank you.
How long did it take to arrive after ordering?
@@Thrillpills77 ordered 12/22 and showed up 2/7.
Can't say for the other guy but I ordered mine on the 18th of jan and It barely shipped awhile ago, its been in shipping for 14 days and might get here around the 16th-26th if that helps at all@@Thrillpills77
@@Thrillpills77 3 weeks for me, with the pricier delivery option.
@@Thrillpills77 I'm from south america and it took around 2 weeks to show up. I only had the DHL option though.
Step 1, I need my 4 pro to show up.
This video came at the perfect time when my RP4P arrived today. Been digesting your video for hours taking detailed notes. It is a lot to setup but your guide is clearly laid out, and thank you so much for all this effort!
Thank you so much Russ for all the hard work you put into these guides, both in the videos and in writing on your website. You've legitimately helped so many people who would've struggled otherwise to find all this information on their own.
First handheld RP4P here. Omg, this vid and the webpage guide are INFINITELY helpful. In fact, so helpful that it helped me to know that it would work out for me even before I got the device. The robotic voice absolutely put it over the top for me. :D
PS - I'm sure you don't need my paltry sub, but you got it anyway.
I didn't realise you could optimise this thing to this depth. A very interesting guide. There were many things I didn't even think to change.
My RP4 Pro comes in today. It's my first handheld emulator device, so I'm unbelievably excited. Thank you for making this guide!!!
It's a very nice gadget. I've owned a few various emulation handhelds over the small amount of years, and they've come a long way.
I'm listening to this at work and the robotic "Retroid Pocket 4 pro" are a nice laugh for me lol thanks brother.
Why IS that??
@@65ANTONIOLI it's probably just a slightly updated version of the old video
I appreciate the transparency 😂
Don't want to be the party pooper, but I noticed he missed at least one Odin word out 😅. Hehe
Just in time! Dope!! Can’t wait to test the waters soon. Thanks for this starter guide, Russ!
I'm so thankful that I didn't have to blindly set this up! Thank you Russ!
After fighting through this monster of a video/process I just want to say thanks. I could NOT have done this alone. Keep doing, what you're doing!
I'm very grateful that I clicked on this video. I usually have an idea on how I want to set up my devices but you taught a few things here and there that's worth remembering. Much appreciated Russ!
just got mine today and got it set up! thank you for the time and effort you put into this video and written guide!
The timing couldn’t have been better! Thank you for all of your hard work on making this possible for us that are trying to get into emulation ❤. Love from California.
You legend. I just received my RP4 and have a lot to learn.
So incredible that this dropped the same day that my RP4 Pro arrived in the mail. Thanks for this!
Wow, thank you so much ! I've seen some update on your website today about the RP4Pro and now i see this video that your online community wanted to see ❤
Not received my RP4 yet but have the bookmarked ready to go. Super comprehensive and must have taken a lot of work. Thanks
Was hoping that you’d make this updated video, this will definitely help trying to setup some apps on my 3+! Much appreciated brother 🙌🏽
Thank you so much for this guide. I’ve watched it twice already and my RP4 Pro should be arriving this week!
Thank you for this guide, Russ! I will be receiving my Retroid Pocket 4 Pro in a few days, so this will definitely come in handy!
This is the one I've been waiting for! Thank you
aww yeah 1 hr video for a device I dont own. I am excited
Watching videos for devices I don't own and then then commenting on them with the wrong catch phrase is tight!
@@SkillFullSheepRyan?
I had my Retroid 4 Pro for two weeks, and had it setup the the best way I could using my Retroid 3+ as a guide. However, this guide taught me way more than I thought possible. The issue I had was there are some features in the Retroid 3+ that didn't make it into the Retroid 4 Pro, but this guide helped lead me to fill in those gaps. Now I'm super happy to have my new Retroid 4 Pro look and feel like an upgraded version of my Retroid 3+. The missing ability to only need to hit the Home button once and adjusting the saturation was honestly killing me.
Thank you for this. Your videos are always a winning combo of clear, concise and infomative.
Thanks for this guide. My retro pocket 4 should arrive in a few days and this is perfect. Will save me and many others hours of searching info
Best in-depth content out there. You always provide the quality stuff.
One mention though: if you disable the screen lock, make sure that your google account is set to require authentication for each purchase. As anyone with access to your device (if it gets lost or stolen) has potential free reign in the google store if you have a payment method set up.
Just got my rp4 pro few days ago and was busy watching Russ's Odin 2 setup, then this pops up.... THANK YOU RUSS!!!!
Absolutely amazing. Thank you for all that you Russ. This is incredibly in-depth. I love all your videos.
Racing home from work to open my box my wife picked up from the post office! Fast shipping , 10 days including a Sunday. Impressed thanks for the video
Got the one terabyte card!!! Yea buddy
You don't know how helpful these videos are. Thank you so much for being so detailed!
Over an hour!? WOW! GREAT! I really wish we had Odin tools for the Odin 1 and RP3, those performance profiles is something I wanted since I got my first Odin in 2022.
My blue 4Pro just arrived and I haven't had time to set it up yet, so now I can follow along. Thanks!
*Perfect Timing!*
I got an *Out For Delivery* Notification from Canada Post on my phone at the _exact time_ this video released.
Those wondering about *Shipping time.*
I *ordered* my RP4Pro 8 hours into Pre-Orders on *release day* December 21.
On Friday January 19th I e-mailed Retroid, as I had not received _any_ communication after purchase. No receipt or tracking info etc...
Monday Jan 22nd they replied "sorry for the late reply" they were off the weekend... "Please wait some working days"?
Tuesday Jan 23 e-mail "your order is on the way"
Wednesday Feb 7th Out For Delivery.
appreciate the info boss!@@janX9
Thanks Russ, just waiting for mine to be delivered today. Sat in front of the postbox with my hands in the air!!
Just got my retroid pocket 4 yesterday and followed everything, with a few hiccups because it's my first time using android, all in all everything working fine, thank you so much!
How long was the shipment process?
Is adding games easy afterwards?
@@awesome7135 If you follow this video exactly, you just drag new games into their folder on the device and sync the games again. It will detect any new ones and download the box art etc.
God you're always on top of this stuff. Thanks for your great videos!! They singlehandedly got me into my Steam Deck and probably the RP4 Pro.
Arrived yesterday, and just finished setting it up. Thank you for this video! I don't know what it would have turned into without it, lol
What a coincidence! I got my RP4 PRO just now. Thanks as always!
Got my RP 4 Pro about 20 mins ago, settling into this now... :) Thankyou!
Excellent timing thank you Russ! Just before my first Retroid console arrives.
Awesome guide. Thank you for taking the time to make it Russ
I was sooooooooo waiting for your guide! Thanks! 🔥🔥🔥
Sweet. Your guides make retro gaming fun and easy.
Broooo I was struggling to play Wii on my RG556. I saw your Dolphin setup part and now is working super well!! Thank you so much 🙌🏽
Thanks for the guide mate - really comphrensive and helped me fix problems I'd been having. Much obliged!
Couldn't have come at a better time, mine arrives tomorrow.. Cheers Russ
Just ordered mine less than an hour ago, and really excited about it already
Thank you so much, this guide is incredible! I am so terrible at tech stuff and you made it all easy to follow! I appreciate you so much!
My pro just showed up like a day or two after this video, and your guide made this all super seamless and easy. Everything is working well for me so far, even on emulating outside of this guide (I added the Pokémon mini because I somehow grew up with that thing and is fun to play for a few minutes). Thank you so much Russ. I hope everyone else will feel the way I do or similar with mine. Super happy with it, and this is coming from a 3+ owner. Much better improvement to me and worth it for those who wanna play GameCube. I can finally, actually play Kirby Air Ride again! lol
my rp4 pro arrives tomorrow, you're a genius :) thank you so much !
Mine arrived yesterday. Nice timing!
Mine finally arrived last night! Hoping to get it set up today.
Beware of trigger
Thank you SO MUCH for these video guides that you put out. it's nice to be able to take a system and "play along" with you in setting up a system. I may not always agree with you core choices (gpSP core for me. come @ me!) but you are one voice on YT that will go the extra mile to help us RGC n00bs setup our gear step-by-step. Again, thank you SO much for all of the hours you put in to help us!
This is incredible! Thank you soo much Russ, would be lost without it!
Perfect timing, I just got mine about an hour ago. Thanks Russ!
im using this guide for setting up my ambernic rg 556. Thanks man this video cover all of the bases.
Got mine 5 minutes ago, what great timing!
Your timing is a blessing my rp4p just got here
Thank you! Was waiting for this
Great video, thanks so much, its clear and precise, to quote another retro CZcamsr "Straight to the point, all stuff and, no fluff".
Only one thing, people clicked on dislike for the video.... what the... how can you dislike it, I honestly cant see what there can be to dislike in a video where someone creates a tutorial you basically get for free to help set up your device, and get the best out of it.
Incredible stuff. Thank you!
Damn, mine was delivered on this Monday so I just setup mine yesterday using RP3 and Odin 2 setup guide. But I'll still watch this even its more than an hour long.
Time to set mine up. Thanks for another great guide!
Thank you, Russ! The starter guide was really useful.
Good lord Russ, what would we do without you??? Thank you for an incredible resource, my new Crystal RP4P and I thank you!!
set mine up a week ago just like I did with my rp3+, with your video but it'll be awesome to see little rp4 pro tips you might have!
Ordered mine a couple days ago so got a little wait but I can't wait!
Perfect, I'll receive mine tomorrow, high five! Thanks Russ!
I actually grab a snack and drink, this videos are my comfort zone thank you so much
Thanks for the demo and info, have a great day
thanks russ great video - will really help me out when i finally get my hands on this device 👍
This is the man, I wait for! He’s the best, setup wise!!
Great guide for newstarters!! 👍💯
I appreciate you for making this video super easy to follow and informative. ♥
Thanks for the guide. I just can't wait any longer for this device. Bought if off from Taobao for $200, and let my third party shipping company take care of shipping. 35 bucks shipping fee for 5 business Day China to US shipping.
Your videos are always so terrific.
Thanks. This really helped me set up my RP4.
Thank you Russ for this. My RP4 Pro Ice Blue is shipping soon.
WOW! You are as fast as the RP4/P! I had to underclock you to 0.75 in order to have the overall understanding. Of course, it is the first pass, but I thank you for making all this in writing. 🙂
Oooh! An hour! Grabbing my favorite beverage and popcorn
OMG on the day mine arrived
Thank you so much
My system is out for delivery today. How nice is that. It's perfect timing for me.
I was waiting for this guide! Thank you!
Thank you. This guide helped a lot 😊
great video. I just ordered the 4 pro and unfortuanlty I hit Chinese new year so I'm going to have to wait a bit to get mine but I can't wait!
This is my first Android device of any kind. I would’ve been in the tall weeds without this. Thank you.
Perfect timing my crystal arrived yesterday and just waiting on same sd card from amazon 😀👍🏻
Insanely detailed video
Thanks for this amazing tutorial!!
Nice one Russ, thanks a lot! 🙂
I used your old android setup guide on my Samsung galaxy tab 7 plus and it is now a stupidly great emulation device. Gamecube and ps2 no issues, upscales to 1080p. It might be fun visiting old tablets as a video idea for people on a budget because a 13 inch 16:10 screen and an 8bitdo controller is a pretty awesome experience, especially for two player. In addition to the tablet functions, it's now my wife and i's most important travel electronic, with a couple 8bitdo sn30 pro's, we have a solid multi-player setup. And a dongle lets it do hdmi video out too
this really helped me with my retroid pocket!
Great stuff
This is great, just got mine today. I'm sure I'll be referring to this a lot.
I so didn't need a rp4 pro as I have a steam deck and a rg405m but after watching your reviews and this video I was like. "Ya man, lets do it"
Yes! I've been waiting for this video. Many thanks Russ
edit: the robotic voiceovers 😂
it's such a shame the aethersx2 dev abandoned the app, imagine how great it'd be now without this version mess
I got my RP4 Pro and am loving it but a big portion of why i'm enjoying it so much is because of this guide. If i'd been left to bumble my way through all of this myself I'm certain i'd now be sitting here feeling like i'd just wasted $200.
Love the shoutout to RESET Collection.That's been my mainstay for a while, and it's perfect for handhelds with smaller screens imo. Odin 2 sized screens and larger I think Daijisho is nice, but I'm into the simpler layout without too much unnecessary text RESET has.
Thank you for this!
