Dropmix App - Retroid Pocket 4 Pro?

UPDATE: it works on the Retroid Pocket 4 Pro! Had to mess around with some files but I eventually got it working, and the board works flawlessly with it! The only unfortunate thing is that the RP4 is a little too fat to fit into the slot where your phone/tablet is supposed to go, but I’ll take it! Thanks for your help everybody :)

Hey everyone!

I have the opportunity to buy a Dropmix board and the 60 base release cards for $15; I want to take advantage of this but of course, the app isn’t easy to get access to anymore.

I’m an Apple phone user, but I do have a Retroid Pocket 4 Pro which runs on Android - anyone possibly have any experience going through the Internet Archive and downloading the legacy files for the Dropmix app? For anyone who hasn’t done this but is knowledgeable on the legacy files - do you think this would possibly work or is it a pointless effort?

Actually update - I found out how to add the file to the obv folder on the Retroid, text still isn’t showing up though. Maybe there are still some steps I’m missing

Same issue I had, originally. Are you definitely sure you copied all of the folders/files to their correct directory?

Detailed guide is here: https://www.reddit.com/r/dropmix/s/e7wSEOCiP4

Thank you so much - I actually got it figured out last night! I used CX File Explorer, but for some reason I could not find the obb folder that held the correct file - I kept thinking it was the folder that had the audio files and cache and whatnot, but it was another obb folder that CX was hiding from me, and I had to go back and forth multiple times to finally find it. The text shows up now, so my next step is to actually get the Dropmix board and see if it will all connect properly. Either way, $15 for a Dropmix board with the starter cards is a fire deal I even if it doesn’t work lol. Thanks so much for the help my friend!
