4. alexander2010 - i dont have icq but i do have skype or yahoo messenger. i tried replying to your pm, but your box is full

I can always get this back into pre-boot. Seems to be some disagreement here whether I make things worse by trying mtk boot bin.
Maybe this was a MTK device that somebody flashed with us fw and it made it 972 hwid?

Serial number looks similar to other US device that was 972 hwid (starts with 1T).
Anyhow, i probably look at it again tommorow.
