Where to download Firmware nowadays

Goodreader9394 · 08-09-2023, 05:29 PM

Since BOOX official don’t publish firmware on their website, where can I find the firmware package? The old one is also fine.

It’s quite necessary to backup in case a failed root.

What's your model?

The updates can be queried:

Code:

http://data.onyx-international.cn/api/firmware/update?where={"buildNumber":0,"buildType":"user","deviceMAC":"","lang":"en_US","model":"Poke3","submodel":"","fingerprint":""}

(This is technically not a valid URL but your browser knows how to turn quotes into %22.)
This is for the Poke3, insert your model.
In "downloadListUrl" it will give you the URL of the .upx file.

Do I need to manually download the FW myself?
I've been always just check the setting to see if there's a new FW available.

Normally a normal update is normally the best.

The most "bomb-proof" backup is if you make a complete backup with EDL.
That's 32 GB or however big your device is.
