Hello everyone, I'm new around here. It's nice to meet you all!
Recently i bought a GP2X from the net(used, but been only used for 3hrs, and its shining like a new one). I think it's the very first version of GP2X as it says 2005 and some other text which I cannot remember and I dont have the console around me at the moment. Anyway, the firmware is 1.01 version. I guess it should be updated. Which firmware should I get? 2.0 or 3.0? Can I update straight from 1.01 to 3.0? I've read numerous topics where people saying they've bricked their console during firmware update and I dont want that to happen to me since I just got the console and the gp2x's are very rare here! I've noticed that the GP2x eats a lot of batteries, but I'm planning on to get good rechargable batteries in a few days. Unfortunately I dont have that AC adapter. Where could I possibly get one in finland? I read that the AC adapter is a must have during firmware update. :<
Also, when I try to view pictures the console freezes for a few secs and then comes back to the front page. Why's that? Some pictures work some doesnt. Not to mention that when I turn off the SNES emulator, the screen goes nuts when it's back in the front page. This only happens when exiting the SNES emu. I think the emu was called PocketSNES. Just another firmware issue? C64 and NES runs great. No sound problems or anything and they work like a charm. Which I'm really happy about
Please help me out!
