I ran into some bluetooth troubles again bc I was stupid and pretty much tried starting from scratch reformatting the microsd and re-writing the OS. btw I could only connect the bluetooth controller when i added
sudo hciconfig hci0 up
sudo bluez-test-input connect 58:2D:89:2E:00:01 (XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX)
to the rc.local between fi and exit0.
I don’t know if that a Matricom thing but that took a good portion of my saturday lol.
That being said i’ll just take the long way and do this manually via file manager for now. The only thing i didn’t try was reformatting the usb and putting all those roms back on it (which I have backed up somewhere). although if it were a bad usb flashdrive then why would it manually let me copy files with file manager?

Thank you buzz. I wasn’t aware of that tool. It comes with retropie too no need to install. I had 3.6gb actually on the card and 104500 items (which seems like alot).
I don’t know why it won’t automatically copy those files but it seems to work fine when I do it manually via file manager.

Just a quick update. I’ve been trying to figure this out all morning. I expanded the file system and in file manager it acknowledged that there was 29gigs (32gig microsd). At the bottom it said 26G/29G which is about the amount of data on the usb, but when I open some of the rom folders there will be folders with the name of the rom but when i open them they are empty. It took all the folders but none of the files with in the folders. Somehow it still says 26G/29G even though i know those empty folders aren’t taking up that kind of space. Which makes me think the file system didn’t get expanded right, even though it says the system was successfully expanded.
Also when i copied a rom from usb>retropie>roms>psx to /pi/retropie/roms/psx using the file manager manually it worked just fine. I only did this for one file but i thought it was worth.

Yeah, I restarted emulation station even rebooted and they still don’t show up. The emulators don’t show up but it shows the roms in the correct folders in file manager.

The usb was formatted with sdformatter and it is a flash drive. It was unchanged from the last time I put roms on Wheezy Retropie.
