Confused About Firmware Version On About Screen

[skate2live92]

I preordered my gp2x from gp32z and received it from the first batch. I was getting ready to upgrade the firmware to 1.01 when in the userguide (by guyfawkes) i read that the about screen displays your firmware where it says "GP2XVxxx". Mine says "GP2XV201", and the manufacture date says 2005.11.14.
But, under "Version" (at the top) it says "1.0"

Does this mean i should upgrade to 1.01, or do i have 2.01 (which i didnt know existed...)


EDIToes "Version:1.0" just mean first edition, or is it f/w related? Because i have a first edition GP2X

If it doesn't say 1.0.1 at booting, it's 1.0.

The V201 simply tells from which factory run your machine is.

ya...i ended up upgrading because i was looking at the upgrade on the file archive reading what it fixed and it says that it turns the battery LED off. My battery LED was on and i didnt have that limegreen screen (for loading) so i figured i had old firmware.
