From: David <elephant_at_tele2.no>
Date: Wed, 18 Jul 2007 03:00:38 +0200 No, I didn't want any Japanese. And, I agree, I too did think that the JP stands for Japanese. That's why, in the first turn, I was planning to use the version ending on an U; as I thought this must be the english version. Could anyone just confirm if I am right on that part? Should I go for the 1.28U, or the 1.30U, of the firmware file? Glen: Is what you are saying that I should run the patcher on the H300.hex, ignore the messages I get, and then run the patcher on the result from the first run? Sorry, if I am a bit slow, but I just want to do this right...
