I did read through it and I'm pretty positive I'm just having ADB issues overall. When i type "adb devices" in inside an adb window. It doesn't list the genesis at all. Just a blank list and I've tried on two of my computers... So I'm just messing around with installing different drivers and all seeing if i can't fix the issue.

I got it all working correctly. I used the rocketchip driver assistant 4.5 which someone had a link to on that usb on the motherboard thread. Completely fixed my problem and I am loving it. Awesome, awesome menu WD_GASTER2! I feel like this flashback system should've had your dashboard using md.emu from the start. Wow I love this... time to go play it.. Thanks for making my genesis flashback perfect!
Please forgive me in advance for my noob questions.
1. Does the single wire mod need to be switched or not?
I don't see how a PC could read both at the same time with the wire ON all the time but I'm probably misunderstanding.
2. What OTG cable can be used to connect both the USB drive and the NAND at the same time (Assuming it is switched)
I see a lot of pictures of suggesting cable types and very few in working systems.
Please post some working examples of this internal and or external wiring.
Thank you!

I have watched Heckles video.
I'm sorry because I almost never use the power adapter to run the machine.
When using the 1 wire power mod alone it will Disable console access and power the USB Flash drive. IS this true?
If I am getting this wrong please let me know because this seems to require a switch if you ever want to use Android Tools without a switch.

you dont require a switch even after doing the mod. you will need 2 different types of cables if you dont attempt to install a switch. please read here:

I personally dont use a switch and just change the cable. after all the changes you can put your own games on the usb drive so you dont need to keep swapping cables.
that being said I AM NOT responsible for your actions or for anything that may happen to your console. go read the original thread and read up on mdfbrew. best of luck if you end up giving it a shot.

Works great here.
WD_Gaster your Generations Media Player got me really interested!
I have been lurking for long time and have been inspired by Everyone.
I have posted my "dev-switch and audio extractor mod" in the other thread.
No cable fuss or electrical worries. Dead simple to use.
AND Thank you!

Yes... although there are problems starting games... I can load them but cannot seem to start any of them.
pce.emu 1.5.18
gbc.emu 1.5.28
nes.emu 1.5.27-beta1
md.emu 1.5.27-beta1
-after you have all 4 of these apps as apks, rename them as "1.apk", "2.apk", "3.apk" and "4.apk" without quotes (doesnt matter which you name which) and put them in the same folder as this readme with the rest of the files.
did you follow this step?

Yes.
I need to be more specific.
The dashboard loads
The emulators do start games
However after starting a rom when I press the start button nothing happens and only the B button works.
I can do 2 things.
1. Exit the emulated game, or not, by using the B button and then using A to make a Yes or No choice.
2. After exiting the emulator it drops into the emulators settings.
I have been able to make some changes here that remove the touch controls and so on but cannot seem to find a way to make the game pad work like it should once a game starts.
Trivial issues.
a. There is an over-scan problem on my LCD so I cannot read the menu so well. The right and left edges fall off but I think that is just my TV.
b. I don't know where the BIOS images go... do they go in a folder on the USB drive or are they suppose to be part of the install in advance?

dude..... go to the application drawer and configure each emulator. you are practically done!
set your menu button to bring up the emulation menu... did you put the bios images in the folder as indicated in the readme? if so they were placed in the sdcard virtual partition of the flashback.
set your in game actions and assign gamepad keys and you should be set.

---I did not do this. Does this mean I should rerun the install with the files included in the BIOS folder or can I push them to a dir?
Ok I will go in the "application drawer" I'm guessing that is the first icon with all the squares and do this.
Is there any way to export these settings?

All done.
SegaCD was some work getting the files converted but totally worth it.
I'm very pleased with the results.
Thank you!

One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better. -
@
Psionic Roshambo:
I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
-
@
Psionic Roshambo:
I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
