I havent a clue whats wrong, I turned on my gp2x today, and it absolutely REFUSES to go past the loading screen. Im worried its fuXXored, as i've only had it a week
 
I popped onto IRC, where I was told you format my SD to FAT32 and put the firmware image on there, I did that, the GP2X updated the firmware then still HUNG on the loading screen :(


IM AT MY WITS END :(:(:(:(:(

If you mean the GREEN loading screen, the kernel image is fine (which is gp2xkernel.img)
You probably tried flashing that one.

You need to reflash the filesystem, so you need the gp2xfile.img which can be downloaded here:

This can take up until 1:30 hours, so be sure to have either fresh batteries or a power adaptor.
(Though don't worry: In case the batteries run dry, simply restart flashing that image, as long as you don't fuck up the bootloader, you can always reflash the gp2x)
