Given Boyue Likebook Plus has the same hardware as Icarus XL is it possible to reflash Likebook into Icarus and would there be any advantages?

Seems like Boyue creates the updates, then Icarus puts their branding in place and eventually makes it available. |

- Thanks for your explaining. Then rebranding into Icarus XL is not a good idea.
Besides. Icarus seems to be very jelous of this firmware. It is not available for public download. |

About Likebook Plus Dictionary
Hello! I have the Likebook Plus (T80s)
When I have got it first time, it hang during an update so I have it fixed by the distributor. After the distributor give it back to me, I found that the dictionary is empty. Anyone can show me a way to copy back the dictionary file? It is still empty even after the update 0215 version. Any help is appreciated. I don't mind if it is needed to be rooted to get it back. Thanks a lot. |

About the Dictionary App, since it is empty by default, is it better to ask them make download or installing dictionary features? I tried GoldenDict but it is still not usable in the built in stock app reader(FBReader), any clues to solve that? |

Now, the cost of Icarus is slightly more than Boyue's. Does it worth buy from Icarus? I mean, are good after sales service and warranty from this distributor?
With value added tax its costs is similar Last edited by viceant; 02-18-2018 at 06:40 AM. Reason: correct |

Aside, in banggood has anyone bought anything with a debit card? Is it advisable or you had better pay with a credit card? Maybe I had better get a paypal account....
