This is the Retroid Pocket 2 Firmware & Reflash Guide for Android 6 (not RetroidOS/closed system). Write-up by @Jecklen with thanks to @dsachs420 for sharing the flash image and know-how of this process, and @TotallyTerry for uploading and managing the Mega download page. Also, here's the direct link to Android 6 image without instructions: https://mega.nz/folder/FQsRGbYD#rMLsoUxaZEIFnt0l6EseJA

This is the stock SD Card image for use with the Retroid OS/closed system (no games included). Thank you to @/silverdusk/ and Taki for providing.


If you are having any issues with connecting your device to your pc or if you are trying to reflash the device, make sure to install the Android SDK suite. It will include the driver's for USB support. If you have previous drivers please make sure to uninstall them as well. https://developer.android.com/studio#downloads

Download the official Android IDE and developer tools to build apps for Android phones, tablets, wearables, TVs, and more.

If you do not want the whole suite, you can just install the USB drivers. Make sure to read the instructions on the site. https://developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb


Guide for rooting your device thanks to @uncletrunks. Download and Root at your own risk. The guide is installation.txt.
