Whew, thanks guys for the continued help! As per your advice, woodnboats, I searched for emusan's golden update, and through reading some of those threads chose ktwombley's "hellbent" update. It worked! I no longer have a brick, but I seem to be stuck (so far) with a functioning device with dingo 1.13. Can't seem to update past it

Vicinc, I actually started trying with pablob's golden allmine rc3 (before hellbent) with no dice. Getting allmine back on there is my ultimate aim. I'm still trying now; still no dice.

What's happening now regardless of which update I try (any of the 4 at http://www.edge.ympsa.com/ ), is that the PE will restart after the 4th white dot without reaching the update screen, and start back into dingo.

I'm familiar with the update.zip / menu & rotate deal, so no obvious user errors there. I've tried with usb thumbdrive and microsd, playing with different lengths of button holding. If I keep the buttons held through the restart, it'll just do the same thing. I've verified this through at least 4 restarts while buttons have been held all the while and still no update screen.

Any ideas? Any known issues updating from ktwombley's hellbent to... anything else? Please help! Thanks a bunch!
