Soooooo....
Let me get this straight...

You got NIT device from a guy who really knows nothing about them...
(It doesn't matter which model of nXX0 you got...)

and the first thing you DIDN'T do...
( after receiving them from someone who is completely unaware of how to use them...)
was ...
reflash them?

and...
you expect them to run properly?
with whatever the last guy did to them?

It doesn't matter if you got NIT devices from the Great Pumpkin himself ....



First thing one must always do when receiving a new (unused) or used NIT ...
is reflash the firmware....

and then check how the device performs...
then you know that you are starting from a clean fresh slate...

Not wasting your time trying to fix someone else's screw-ups...
that are easily wiped clean with a fresh install.
