You can use the other main.xml where you need to reset it yourself. Also it's possible to map a button in the root menu to reset the counter. I made a new file where you can reset the counter in every menu by holding the "Next" button for a few seconds. Or are you ok with the "ENT" button in the "About" screen?


It is possible to make all menu pages add to the counter. Do you want the counter to show up in the status bar as well or only add to the total count?
I'm fine with going to the about menu to reset the counter. That way I won't do it by accident. I have to want to do it.

Having the page count in the status bar even in the menu pages is fine. It would then show a true page count since menu flips also count as a page flip.

if you can't sort out the USB without too much of a risk, don't bother. It's not worth it. But if all it takes is a reflash to fix things, then sure, go for it.
