Thanks for the explanation. I'd guessed it was compression, but wondered if I needed to uncompress it, or if the loader would take care of it. ralphy wrote: > I'd be wary of loading that firmware in the radio. I was feeling a bit more gung ho than you, saying as I figured my Radio was a brick anyway. So I gave it a shot, and it didn't even load, funny enough. I also tried another similar Atheros firmware I found on a Kindle hacking website that someone had extracted from their Kindle. It was also a .z77 file. And it also wouldn't load. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ omnium21's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=70334 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97791 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
