    All The Rechargeables You Could Ever Want

    I've tried various brands, and I've found Uniross and Energizer to be the best. I did buy a load of cheap Digital branded 2300mhas, which worked great for a while, but they seemed to stop taking a charge way sooner than the others.

    Replacement Battery Cover For Gp32

    Does anywhere still sell replacement battery covers for the GP32? One of mine is broken, and I'd like to get a glass screen for it too. UK preferably, other than that, a country where the postage cost isn't going to be obscene. :/

    Gpx2 Won't Run On Batteries.

    Is that adapter regulated? It doesn't look that way on the website. Personally I wouldn't risk using ANY power adapter that wasn't regulated. The voltage output it gives out can vary wildly depending on the current usage, and they can spike and kill your unit.

    GP2X Php

    How about because it's a Hypertext Pre-processor? Designed for serving dynamic web content? Fair enough to anyone really nerdy, who wants to run a web server on the GP2X, just to do it for no other reason than it can be done. But wasting any time trying to port a module for a web server, to a...

    GP2X Php

    What on earth is the point of porting PHP to the GP2X? I despair at you people sometimes. :)

    Is Anything Using Both Prosesors Yet ?

    Oh yeah, a poll, that'd get the facts wouldn't it. :) Anything that uses the second processor which is memory intensive, such as bit blitting, is never going to be an efficient use of the second processor. It is going to be useful for non-memory intensive repetitive tasks, code that will read...

    Stuck Pixels?

    My GP32 Blu has one stuck pixel, in which just the green is stuck on. It isn't in an annoying place though. I wrote an app which would flash the screen on and off, and you could leave it running for hours. It didn't fix it.

    What About The Product Recall?

    V001 - 00000536 here, flickers like its going out of fashion. Did before the 1.01 firmware update, does after. And my up is insanely sensitive, so much so that using left or right without doing a diagonal up is next to impossible.

    Flickering And Diag. Lines Are Software Probs.

    Doesn't cure my flickering, or diagonal lines, or dodgy joystick (to whom right is nanometres away from up-right). So to declare this a software fault is somewhat premature.

    Gp2x Bootup Times...

    Yes, it takes way too long to boot up. It is acceptable at present, but only because it should improve with future firmware updates, whether they be official or otherwise. For a handheld device, regardless of WTF OS it runs, anything longer than 5 seconds is reason to moan about.

    Frotz Z-code Interpreter

    Congratulations, on making the slowest game genre in existence, even slower. :)

    Gbax We Need An Official Comment Please

    That would be a *terrible* idea. I appreciate you are eager for yours, but it isn't in the interests of anybody (you, craig or GPH) to send out faulty products. Oh yes, and the flickering is most noticeable when playing back mp3s or video. But it is there all the time, it is just worse when it...

    Gbax We Need An Official Comment Please

    It's a permanent flickering, first noticable on the green Loading screen, then pretty much constant from there on in. You feel very much like you are watching a cheap mini portable TV, and not looking at an LCD screen. I don't know if it is related, but on mine everytime I select a different...

    Atari 800 Released On Gp2x!?!?!?

    Works for me, but only if I put gpmm dir in the root dir. Be nice if that could be renamed a800 or something. ;)

    What Should The Sd Card Be Formatted To?

    Okay, bought an SD card reader that takes my 1gb card, and got it to work. Seems the USB connection is buggy, as it works fine over USB, but neither the GP2X or XP with a card reader can decipher the resulting format.

    What Should The Sd Card Be Formatted To?

    Unfortunately my card reader doesn't support 1gb SD cards. So USB is the only way I can access it at present, and I'm guessing there is a problem with the firmware here.

    What Should The Sd Card Be Formatted To?

    Getting rather annoyed at this now. Unmounting has no effect, as I say the data is entirely readable over USB in XP. It just seems invisible to the GP2X menus. :/

    Noobie Programing

    For gods sake don't learn Basic. :) The single most badly designed useless language on earth, and responsible for countless crappy shareware apps (and dare I say it even terrible so called professional software). Learn the basics of C, you'll be able to do everything you want then, skill and...

    Gp2x Windows Xp Dectection Error

    Try this for those of you having problems with XP detecting the device but showing it with a yellow exclamation mark in Device Manager: Open Device Manager, expand Universal Serial Bus controllers, right click and disable USB 2.0 Enhanced Host Controller. (May be called something similar, but...

    What Should The Sd Card Be Formatted To?

    I've tried formatting my SD card via the USB from XP for both FAT and FAT32, both of which let me transfer files fine, but the GP2X won't read them, so it may as well be blank. Those of you who got it working, (specially those using *nix), did you use a card reader or via USB? And what...
