    You could try flash the b0x , you will need to know if you have a clone or genuine first

    Count the vents on top

    18x7 = Clone
    25x7 = Genuine

    You can also see pics in the link at the bottom of my post

    I would update it as a clone , but its up to you what firmwa*e you want to put on it

    All firmware/loader can be found in the link at the end of my post marked Eamos FTA Library.

    You will need the GTromloader, (Starview Software Uploader), found in the Starview software folder of the link.

    You will need version 4.00 firmware for GENUINES found in "Starvi*w" firmware folder.
    You will need version 2.57_FIXED firmware for CLONES found in "Starvi*w" firmware folder.
