hi i recently bought this satnav of ebay

[Please Register or Login to download file]
please forgive me if links not allowed,and remove accordingly

can some one please help me get the correct firmware to reflash it,as i have tried numerous files from this forum,and now it is froze on the startup screen,which used to be a car and windmill,now after using i assume the wrong files,the screen its stuck on is a japanese manga picture,please someone save me from this agony of a week old gps thats f*****.and i cant send it back to the vendor like this,as they will know by the screen its stuck on its not as was when it was delivered.

i think this was the rom version V.912C.213000.110930.128M
but cannot be certain,as i cant access anything now

I USED THE FILES posted on another forum for the 7" 800 x 480 model this afternoon (wrongly),mine is the 5" model and is 480x272
,all went well,but its the wrong resoloution,,my battery indicator icon,is 4 times the size and is in the bottom right corner now,instead of the top left when charging,and i cant see or access anythin on my unit now
can anyone please help me find the right version firmware and menu files ect and instructions how to accomplish this task for my device
to get it back to as it should be for my device

ps great forum
hope someone with more knowledge than me (which isnt a lot regarding satnavs) can save my sanity and my gps

thanks in advance moiloon

There are some ROM's in this thread here

And here but it's a hassle to download them

I don't know if any of them will be suitable for your device.

Please try this firmware.

My GPS has almost the same specs as yours, except for the memory (mine has only 64MB)>

Download from here:

Extract contents (8 files) of rar archive into an empty SD card. Insert SD onto device, power on and wait until re-flash completes.

Hope it works out for you.

Your device is running on MTK3351 Chipset with iphone interface!

But you may have to tell us your device is running Wince 5.0 or Wince 6.0 ?

Wrong given flashrom will make your device hardware corrupted!
What you WISH for :pray: ! And what you GET for :yahoo: !

I have given this advice many times but I'll do it again because it's important. Going from GPS forum to GPS forum for pieces of advice and downloads can only lead to trouble as you have unfortunately found out. One place's download might conflict with another's that you got from someplace else and only wind up bricking your device. Stay only here and get your advice and downloads from one place. This way we can offer the support because we know what you have.
If it ain't broke don't fix it!
ALWAYS BACK-UP YOUR FILES/FOLDERS BEFORE MAKING EDITING CHANGES!

Please do NOT post any thanks. Simply press the hand icon with the "thumb up" which is the thank you button.

Instead of PMing the link, it's probably better to post it here since other members might need it also.
