Help finding appropriate Firmware for MX Box

[pjmerrigan]

Hi guys,

I recently bought this Android TV box:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00P46NVGA
(I'm not sure if links are allowed, so it's Amazon, with the ASIN B00P46NVGA, if you want to go looking for it).

The reason I'm giving the link is because there doesn't seem to be any branding, other than J-Bonest (the seller, not the manufacturer). I'm trying to find a firmware update - it's currently running off 2013 firmware. I've found a few firmware updates, but don't know if any one will do, or if I need a specific version...

Does anyone have any clues if any firmware update will do or do I need a specific one? I've spoken to the seller who told me to update KODI rather than the firmware... But I'm ready running KODI 15.1 (and they're suggesting updating to 14.2!).

Thanks, Amoco. That's one I've already come across, but I'm not sure it's the correct firmware for the box? I'm reluctant to brick the machine . Will the wrong firmware brick the box or will it just fail and revert?

Yes it will brick it if the wrong firmware is installed.
But this is the one you want here, http://www.thefirmwarefactory.co.uk/mx-firmware-update-dual-core-1-p.asp

Thanks again, Amoco. I came across that one, too, but there's no indication on the FirmwareFactory site of which firmware version it is. I don't want to purchase the firmware to find out it's the same version I already have installed.

EDIT: I've emailed the site to see which version they are selling. Thanks!

I understand that,Call or shoot them an email to find out what version they have.
