Broken Caanoo

(1/4) > >>

HamishTPB:
I managed to brick my Caanoo >:D , losing power during an update (why didn't I plug it in?  :'( ), now it gets power but nothing else. If anyone knows if there is still a repair service that is cheaper than buying a new one then I would love to hear from you.

Ian Price:
Ouch :(

Maybe the goodly folks over at www.gp32x.com have some advice.

HamishTPB:
Thank you, I will check it out tomorrow when my fuming has subsided  :|

Changed the focus of the current game to an 800x600 screen for now. If I get it onto tablets/pods/phones the extra screen space can be for virtual controls.

Still have my GP2X but I had gotten used to the Caanoo and wanted to exploit the touch screen and gravity controls.

erico:
the g-sensor on the caanoo works wonders.
It is quite sensitive.

On the caanoo problem, I heard that happening a few times, it is not bricked, head to gp32x and look around the forum.
You can set it to reflash again.

HamishTPB:
All the solutions need the unit to at least show a start screen, mine charges but won't turn on or show any boot image. The addresses for service no longer exist (I got a bounced email from the German company). There is some info on unbricking the wiz with invasive surgery but nothing so far about the caanoo that I can see. There is a place with about 40 left for sale in the UK so I might as well send an email to see if they know of any service centre still working.

I am not holding out much hope and if I am going to buy a new console I might look into an android based one.
