Useful tips
- Never download or install a firmware update from an untrusted source. The update may be fake and damage
your GP2X. If you are unsure, ask on one of the forums before installing. The GP2X Archive at
http://archive.gp2x.de/
is a trusted site but you should always check beforehand.
- If you are unable to upgrade your firmware due to the SD Card bug which prevents the firmware being
updated. You can download an Alternative Firmware Updater (currently v1.4.0) from
http://archive.gp2x.de/
in
the Firmware section which will update your GP2X a second way.
- If the worst happens and your GP2X is no longer booting due to a failed firmware upgrade please visit

for a way to ‘
unbrick’
your GP2X. This method fixes most cases of failed
firmware upgrades.
