Help updating e7 with pheonix

1 replies · 2,261 views · Started 27 February 2012

So long story short I'm trying to change my e7 from 3 branded to unbranded. From what I understand you can't just change the product code you have to manually install the firmware you want. I have phoenix (ver 2011.46.002.47246) and navifirm 1.7+. I've dl'd the software version I want 059F7J6 and got phoenix all ready to go.

I get as far as seleting the connection, scanning it, I get details at the bottom. Go to Flashing>Firmware update then when I click browse (...) I get the message 'Neither DP1.0 nor DP2.0 could be found for product or product could not be identified'

I'm kinda stuck here now. I've copied the firmware folder navifirm got into the products folder in phoenix but I'm unsure where it looks. Ive tried adding the folders in the products location option but that didn't seem to do much.

Any help would be muchly appreciated from anyone who knows what they're doing.

Thanks

So as always you solve your own problems as soon as you ask for help. I managed to download the right firmware version through phoenix itself and then it picked it up and ran fine. It's worked too. Not sure I like belle as much as anna but I can always go back now I know how.

I'll leave this up in case anyone else has the same problem but if a mod wants to delete it fair enough.
