Warning
For Panel 5 devices, I recommend using the original boot.ini file due to issues with loading Panel 5 via our panel picker. Since this is a clone device that just so happens to be compatible with standard ArkOS, navigate to the Screenfiles folder and copy the files for Panel 5, which should include the standard boot.ini file. Or you can use our DTB Change Tool.
Important
Newer R33S/R35S/R36S consoles are coming with 5 new updated screens.
If your brand new R33S/R35S/R36S doesn't work with the usual DTB files go to this Github Repo.
Still have your stock sd card files? You can check which screen you're using with this tool.
