    dArkOS is a new CFW from dev ChristianHaitian. This is ArkOS, but running a Debian kernal. The result mixes the stability and ability of ArkOS with total user control and customization abilities.

    • Download the dArkOS_G350_trixie_02012026.img.7z.001+002 files from the dArkOS Github page.
    • Extract the downloaded files to a single dArkOS_G350_trixie_xxxxx.img
    • Open up Rufus or whichever image writing program you enjoy the most, and write the .img file to a new micro-SD card (this will wipe any information on the existing disk).

    • When the writing process is complete, you should see three new partitions on your PC, including EASYROMS. Avoid the temptation to load ROMs at this time; we still have unpacking to do.
    • Remove the SD card from your PC and insert it into the G350
    • Allow the SD card to unpack and install the new firmware on the G350

    Allow the unpacking process to complete, and your G350 should then boot into dArkOS

    From here, you can load the aforementioned EASYROMS partition with any ROM/BIOS files from your collection.

      Any info on how to fix the right joystick issue? It seems that when ArkOS is installed the stick configuration is rotated 90 degrees anticlockwise. So left is up, up is right etc. I tried a few fixes that I found here and there but none fixed the issue so I had to go back to the StockOS ( even though I liked ArkOS more )

      I wish I would’ve seen this before I played and created save states. I lost my save state in my favorite game and now I can’t save any game (it freezes and gets stuck at saving 0%). Is there a fix like a cache refresh in the original software or is it cooked because of the SD card? If so is it still salvageable to transfer to Arkos and keep all the games it came with?
