How to tell which firmware to use on M701 (translated)

[xaueious]

From 99pad by albertdsh

Download: bootinfo.exe

Instructions:

1) YOU MUST BE ROOTED. Dump your boot.img. adb shell, or use a terminal app

cat /dev/mtd/mtd0 > /sdcard/boot.img

2) place boot.img in the same directory as bootinfo.exe
If your page size displays:
nand chunk size 4096 -> old M701
nand chunk size 8192 -> new HY M701

If you get 128, you didn't dump boot.img properly

Does this work for styleflying GPAD ?

Hmm. Just did this firmware-check and this was the output:

L:\>BootInfo.exe boot.img
Kernel size = 5082432
Ramdisk size = 804915
Second size = 0
Page size = 4096

Nothing about 'nand chunk size' but the page-size is 4096. Does this mean i have an old version ?
