Hi,

I just booted up in Android for the first time in a while, and it worked fine. But I got the same message as this person in hetake, "Old Nyx Gui detected, there will be dragons". So I thought I would update it and downloaded 'hekate_ctcaer_5.7.2_Nyx_1.2.2.zip' from here and dropped it onto the root of my SD card, and clicked replace as per these instructions.

I then booted it back up, and still got the message about Old Nyx Gui detected but continued on anyway.

Now, however, when I click 'More configs' I get the same message as this guy and there is no option to choose android. I checked the hekate folder I downloaded, and there is no file in the ini folder.

He says he fixed it by "Simply needed to download the icosa tab zip from the switchroot site and put the files from there onto the root of the SD card. After that, it worked perfectly again"

I've downloaded that folder he mentioned from here and got the file from the ini folder, and put it into the empty ini folder on my sd card. All the other files are the same.

I now have Android showing up in 'More configs' but when I click it, the device restarts back to the first "Old Nyx Gui detected, there will be dragons" screen so I think it's just restarting hetake.

Does anyone know what I've done wrong or how I can fix this? Thanks!
