Ok thanks,I got my new E3 today and the seller told me it was working and able to make a call on it before I bought it and its unregistered so deactivated…dam it.. ☹ ,he said to me he don’t understand how it was reset when it was working…??? Well it can do it by itself without you pressing Delete,Stop and Handsfree at boot up….lol Its Main Software is V4 so the dial for email trick don’t work. so no point in copying the firmware but I am glad I have the clock back, I do like the look of the firmware on the E3.. 😊 Well its my clock now. Its a shame, I never buy another E3 again unless I see it working(picture of its screen) and it activated or have CC on it, but trying to get one that has CC on it is like looking for a needle in a haystack..lol
Has anyone have a idea of copying the firmware on the E1 or E2, I have a E1 that activated too now.. 😊I don’t know how the E1/E2 E-mailers OS work maybe someone can explain, well it not Linux like E3 so what does it use..?
Spanner..

Hi Nick,
As its flashing to the Nand it is reporting bad blocks but still flashing the image, its missing some of them so not flashing them all over to the Nand.
You could try adding the -m option to nandwrite to mark the bad blocks. nandwrite -mn $dev $f But it's risky. I don't know if it's the correct thing to do, and if it needlessly marks blocks as bad for some reason, I don't know how to cancel that, though I assume it's possible.
In short, you're outside the scope of what I know.
-- Cheers, Ralph.
