Hi Renate,

I had the same problems as Jerry. I would like to turn a Poke5 from Chinese version to global version, could you show us how to do it?

Thank you.

Ok, download the Poke5P update: http://firmware-us.boox.com/c07f7139...a70/update.upx
Turn it into update.zip with (use "Poke5P"): https://github.com/Hagb/decryptBooxUpdateUpx

Download the custom recovery from the PM I'll send you.
You need to flash it. You can do that in Android, in fastboot or in EDL.

From Android if you're already rooted with Magisk
Code:
C:\>adb push recmod /sdcard
C:\>adb shell
$ su
# dd if=/sdcard/recmod of=/dev/block/by-name/recovery_a
# dd if=/sdcard/recmod of=/dev/block/by-name/recovery_b
# reboot recovery
From fastboot
Code:
C:\>adb reboot bootloader
C:\>fastboot flash recovery_a recmod
C:\>fastboot flash recovery_b recmod
C:\>fastboot reboot recovery
From EDL
(I'll write this later.)

When you boot to recovery you should have a white screen.
I've never had an issue, but the last time somebody said that it didn't do this.

Put your update.zip on a flash drive.

Check to make sure that ADB is working and that it's rooted.
Code:
adb shell
# <-- should be a number sign
# start ttyscreen
It should have nice little text at the top of the screen "ttyscreen started".
If it doesn't continue anyway.
Code:
# start autoupdate
It should say "Waiting for flash".
If it doesn't continue anyway.
Plug in the flash drive. Does the LED on the flash blink a lot?
Just wait about 5 minutes for it to all stop flashing.
