                    <div>i think you should change the boot.ini file
                      that on the sd card. You can mount the boot fat
                      file system on PC and change it, the offset for
                      the first partition is 21MB or 36 MB, you can try
                      to mount with -o loop,offset option.</div>

                                    I don't know if this happens to

                                    <br>
                                    When updating the firmware on
                                    several A10 devices I have found a<br>
                                    significant difference when using
                                    the Livesuit application via usb
                                    cable<br>
                                    or using the
                                    Phonenixcardapplication.<br>
                                    While the first one allows you to
                                    format the flash memory (answering
                                    yes<br>
                                    to the popup question ) ... &nbsp;the
                                    second one does not allow this
                                    option<br>
                                    (or at least I have not found it) so
                                    the result &nbsp;is that only overwrites<br>
                                    existing dataso &nbsp;it can happen that
                                    not all data are reseted.<br>
                                    <br>
                                    Does anyone know (hey Mr. Cubie)
                                    about an option to force the memory<br>
                                    flash format using the sd card
