I've just had the same problem. My Libre Pro was flashed with 33g and would give me a failed upgrade message every time I attempted it. After some reading here I discovered that the firmware looks for a file with ebook in the name. After renaming the firmware to ebook-v0.35d.bin it would show me the option to flash. I didn't proceed but instead went back to the Aluratek firmware. When I renamed AluratekBook part it complained about needing revision 0.31 (I think) or newer. So, I just rename the Libre firmware to ebook-v0.35d.bin and it flashed fine. Looks like it gets version info from the filename. Only issue was on first boot I saw nothing. I reset it and now things work fine.

Hope I got the names correct as I did this yesterday and didn't write anything down.
