PAN4ELEC
This firmware is a community/fan mod of the popular AmberElec. Originally released for the R36S line, there is already an early preview release for the G350.
- Head over to the Pan4Elec GitHub and download the latest release image for the G350. Make sure you are grabbing the correct PAN4ELEC-RG351MP.x-G350.img.gz image.
- Unzip the archive with your favorite unzipping program, and extract the .img file. Remember where you put the extracted file, because we’re going to need it in a second.
- 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 .img has finished writing, remove the micro-SD card from the PC and insert it into the TF1 slot on your handheld.
- After a brief moment, you should be greeted by the initializing screen for Pan4Elec.
- After the installation process is completed, remove the microSD card from your handheld, place it back in your PC reader, and transfer your ROM and BIOS files to the card.
- Get gaming!

ARKos or PAN4ELEC?
I’m a big fan of what’s happening with Pan4Elec on this device!
I installed ark OS and the right thumb stick mapping is wrong. Up is right, down is left, left is up, right is down
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 )
Go to https://github.com/retrogamecorps/G350-ArkOS-dtb and download Image and replace the in the boot volume
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?
I played my game when I got not knowing I had to do anything else to it now I turned it on and it says no SD card. What should I do I
My menu hotkey is not detected in retroarch can anyone please help me with this
Hi Paylyboy390,
I’ve had the same problem. Did you find a solution for this?
Yes a proper dtb swap is needed you have to rename the batlexp dtb to rk3326-rg351mp-linux.dtb
You can find Batocera and rocknix for the g350 at my github
