EverDrive Problems?

I am not affiliated with EverDrive, Krikzz or any of the official resellers

It seems many people are having problems with their EverDrive carts.

Many in the forums at krikzz.com, and some come to this blog asking for help.

But as stated by the waranty page, clones will not get support in the forums, and will not be repaired if shipped there.
Warranty

The thing is, cheap clones exist out there, and they are cheap for a reason.
Cloned Everdrive help? Look no further…

If you are planning to buy an EverDrive, make sure to buy an original unit, and not cheap defective knock-offs…

Here’s why you want to avoid eBay and AliExpress:
Loading Problems on Some Games
Some games work perfect, some games just a black screen (WARNING! N8 Clones)
What happend to my everdrive ? Did I damage it ?
Trouble with OS Update
Cloned N8 everdrive
SED2SNES fakes?
Super Everdrive China version – problem!!!
Many more are available in the forum…

All the dealers who sell real EverDrives are listed on krikzz.com
EverDrive Dealers

I like the original products, so I think the money should go to the original creator, so I will not help anyone who support these scammers with their money.

The users at the support-forum are usually very friendly and helpful, but they won’t help peoople who bought knock-off carts either.

The files located here will help you identify fake carts:

Some even claim to sell real hardware like JackDIY and misc sellers on AliExpress and/or eBay.

To get fully working products with warranty and support, buy only from sellers on the official  dealer list

Don’t try to get free support for fake carts…

I just got tired of reading about all those people getting scammed, while the scammers get lots of money, and the one who made the products get nothing.

Using TAP files on a real Commodore 64

Wow!

I Just realized i can use TAP files on my Commodore 64 🙂

1. Install an app on my Android phone (tapDancer),
2. Purchase a cassette tape adapter with a minijack.(on EBay)
3. Put TAP files on the phone’s SD card.
4. Put adapter in Datasette Player
5. Start the c64
6. type “load” and press return.
7. press play on tape (Datasette Player)
8. Press play on tapDancer
Profit!

 

Just a quick tip for anyone with a c64 with a datasette player 🙂

Will post pics of this when my gf is out of the house 🙂
