I can't get this skin to install. I'm running TNAP 3.2 on my OS MIO 4k and uninstalled all skins but the Pli skin and the Emergency skin, I can't find a way to uninstall the Emergency skin.
When I try to install it it tells me that there is no packages installed or something on that order. Is there anything else I need to do?
Thanks

When a skin fails to install the first time, it will display the reason it did not install.
When a skin that has failed to install previously is installed again, it will give the no packages installed message.
Telnet may be used to force install some things, and at times, telnet will give more information about what is happening. The receiver does not tell us much about skin or plugin installs except for the first install attempt.
A complete image backup should be made before installing skins as a precaution. If you have a backup, reload it and go through the process of installing Cobaltfhd again. Except this time, remove bitrate viewer under extensions in the plugin removal section. Remove the Glamour skin and any other skin that you have installed. The PLi skin may stay and does not need to be deleted. After these removals have been done, install Cobaltfhd. Let me know if you have any issues.

Hello
There is also a plugin that can help uninstall: IPK-uninstaller
you can not only uninstall the plugin (you can do it using the plugin browser / quick menu), but also all kinds of packages.
it may not be something that every user needs, but if so, you can install it yourself.
You have to be careful when using this plugin, you have to know what you are doing.

Always make a full image backup before installing anything.
If a skin fails to install, the reason why will be listed as seen below.
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
If you try to reinstall the skin, you may get this message:
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
The easiest way out of this is to:
(1) Make notes of why the skin failed to install.
(2) Load the backup image that was made before the skin was installed.
(3) Remove the packages or items that caused the skin installation failure.
(4) Install the skin and carefully check for errors .
Here is a successful install:
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
There are ways to do this without installing the backup image, but you will need to understand the basic receiver files, be able to use telnet, and have notepad++ or equivalent installed in your computer.

Unfortunately I made a new backup after I tried to install Cobalt. Could I just install a fresh multiboot version of TNAP 3.2 and then try again? I currently have TNAP 3.2 in both slots 1 and 2. I could load a fresh version in slot 2 and try to install Cobalt in that slot. I currently use Blue Shadow FHD in slot 1 and I'm pretty happy with it. I plan to load a different image of some kind in slot 2 eventually.

Yes, you can do that. OR you can fix the current image if you understand the use of telnet and can edit a simple text file.
The Cobaltfhd skin is complex. Some modifications were done so we could use it. At some point in the future, I would like to do more mods to make this skin easier to load.

I went ahead and installed a new version of 3.2 and followed your instructions and it installed fine. I believe I prefer the Blue Shadow though, it's a little easier for me to see. The text seems to be a little bit smaller on the Cobalt skin.
