BANNED FOR NECROING

I never understood why forum admins hated this so much. If I have an update to an old issue, why shouldn't I post it in the same place? Why create a whole new thread?

I think it depends on the forum. On the forum I am, there is no search timeout and necroposting is allowed as long as you bring something relevant to the discussion. And if you accidentaly create a new post that should have been somewhere else, the post is simply moved there.

The solution: download this file and flash it

Clicks link

You have to register before you can download files.

You register, login, download the file... And then you never see that forum in your life because you only had this one difficult problem with the device or it breaks completely and you buy a different brand.
