Hello, it worked for me eventually, when I connected without the battery. So maybe you can mention that in the readme. Thanks

@Evg79 you need to first extract the content of your downloaded zip file and use the other zip file within the downloaded zip file, there's a pdf manual inside you can read it and follow the steps, don't flash the downloaded zip it won't work

Hi,

 

 I have the exact same problem.

 

Firmware Version: 1.1.6 Build 180723 Rel.1022n

Hardware Version: M7650(EU) v1.1

 

I'm able to reflash the 1.1.6 without a glitch, but always get the error:

 

"Update failed. The update file is not suitable for the current firmware."

 

while flashing "M7650(EU) 1.1_1.1.8 Build 201110 Rel.1026n_User.zip" file.

 

 

Regards.

Hi,

 

As I emailed you, the link sent was for a totally different device, hence it's not possible to flash my M7650 with it.

 

EDIT: Ah, I just notced you had replied here, in a PM. I will flash in a minute. Thanks.

 

 

Regards.
