How do I upgrade the Modbo V1.2 to firmware 1.4b ??

**pstwo4u** · 07-29-2005,08:00 PM

I have could upgrade the Modbo V1.1 to Matrix Infinity firmware 1.4b.
However this is not possible with the V1.2 version, because the EPROM is write protected.

Does anyone know, what I have to do to upgrade it to 1.4b ?
Do not tell me to desolder the EPROM.

It's probably on 1.38 or 1.39 anyway, so you don't really need to upgrade to 1.4. Just patch any dual layer images before writing them.

I know that, but just want to know how to upgrade it anyway.
The Matrix Team said it was only possible to upgrade to 1.4b, not higher.
With the V1.1 modbo, it was possible.
With the V1.2 modbo, it was not possible, because of write protections.

How to remove those protections.
Anyone knows the answer ????????

MATRIX TEAM said that well i don't think so

Question to matrixteam:Hey Luke of the MATRIX TEAM do you support the MODBO
Answer: Sure We Support a Clone who walk a way with al the hard work and support we put in the Matrix Infinity
Just send them and we reprogram your hole batch for FREE

oh oh I know how to do it!! you see there is this chip called the Matrix Infinity it does everything your asking about with no tricks or hoops to jump through. Its truly amazing. In fact I have a NH9 (modbo clone ironic huh) that I'm upgrading to this amazing Matrix Infinity thing. I cant believe no one came across this before. I should have a before and after picture for you to follow very soon.

I'm sick of all these modbo posts. We should close all threads involving modbo. Allowing discussion about them means supporting them.

The blue 1.2 modbo's are write protected. This is a GOOD thing, the 1.39 and 1.40 firmwares offer nothing of interest (the only DL support in 1.4b is for an unpatched copy of GT4, nothing more)
