appart from the owner, the .sh should have X permission that also makes it get stuck if its not there
cpi@clockworkpi:~$ cd apps/launcher
cpi@clockworkpi:~/apps/launcher$ git pull
Already up-to-date.
What next? Is it safe to just switch off the gameshell by the power button?
sudo reboot is the safest option
Thanks! Rebooted, but after it I see the same “Loading…” screen again without any progress.

fiIf my guess is right
you need to edit ~/.bashrc
change the bottom part
and
mv ~/apps/launcher ~/
to move launcher out of ~/apps
then reboot
Deeply sorry for these inconveniences, we didn’t design them well enough in the beginning.
Changed a lot
Done, but after reboot I still see the “Loading…” screen.

try
sudo apt-get install bluez
mkdir ~/apps/Menu
reboot
and maybe you can have full bluetooth function follow the wiki
otherwise, dont go into bluetooth settings in launcher, it will block you a couple seconds
If you don’t have a lot of user data and games, it’s also an option to refresh a new OS image, pure advice
Still no luck

Is there a way to save my GBA games and saves if I decide to totally reinstall the OS? (maybe it’s easier than fixing Bluetooth 
)
yes
just move out the ~/games and ~/apps/emulators out to anywhere but GS
then reflash the sd card
then re-copy ~/games and ~/apps/emulators into new system

Hello there, I’m pretty new to this ! I just read the thread and tried many of your ideas, but I’m still stuck at loading. It looks like there’s a problem with X. Here’s my X log :
Can someone help me or give me some advices ? Thanks a lot !
