hi folks, am kinda new to the gp2x world but last night i tried to install the above skin. which worked but i now have lost the utility icon. is i cant change skin back. can anyone advise? i want to get rid of this skin and ideally upgrade my firmware but can seem to acces run the file off my sd card. i can see it when i use explorer and it shows up when i go into game menu but cant run anything?

sorry to be an amatuer but please help :)
 
Well... if you want the ugly GPH default skin, you can try in Settings/System to select Default skin (third row).
If it doesn't work, you would have to (re)upgrade FW 2.1.0.

Otherwise, you could choose other skins from the archive (that are compatibles with FW 2.1.x), putting them into "skin" directory on NAND memory (create the folder, if it doesn't exist) and finally to select one in "Setting/System" menu.

Skins for 2.1.x such as:

http://www.gp2x.de/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi?0,0,0,0,52,1882
http://www.gp2x.de/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi?0,0,0,0,52,1876
(and much more)

For the next times, avoid to use skin with a .gpu file (since FW 2.1.0 it needs one .gps file)
 
cool cheers,

how do i get back to factory settings as if i had just booted up for the first time?

cant seem to copy from my sd card into nand memory nor run fw 2.1.0 from my sd card?!

thanks again for your help ...
