Gameboid BIOS Issue - Please Help

Hello everyone. I own a Samsung Galaxy S4 and I recently downloaded the Gameboid app. During the setup, everything went smoothly, and I was soon playing Fire Emblem as I had hoped to be doing. Unfortunately, at some point a screen popped up asking me to select my BIOS file (which I had previously done correctly) and I pressed the incorrect button (a ROM). Now, whenever I try to open the app, it takes me to the "Select ROM" screen and when I do select a ROM, it gives me the "Load BIOS failed." error. Unfortunately, I can't seem to get out of the ROM selection mode so I can change the BIOS back. I'm stuck and I don't know what or where to press. Can anyone please help?

try going into settings and under management select the gameboid app and delete data. you will have to start over, but at least you are not stuck any more.
