    You dont need the GTRom v.400 for the SV3.
    Go to "the b0x super" folder in eamos & download the 7.09 Beta. Its a unified folder so no need for the GTRom.

    kevin, the loader 7.09 is the firmware, I would advise you to turn the box off and reflash with just 7.09, you dont need to load anything to this, you will brick the box if you put the wrong fimware on it

    turn the box off, start 7.09 loader, wait about 5 secs then flick the switch at the back of the box, it should kick in, may take a few attempts but it should work
