Minix Neo X5 owners...did you upgrade to 4.1.1 Jelly Bean?

[leoesu]

Hi everyone,

Any user reviews from the Minix X5 already?

I'm getting mine this Monday from geekbuying. On Geekbuying's description as well as Minix's facebook page it states that it is upgradable to Jelly Bean. Has anyone upgraded their X5 or happens to know how to do it? I'm totally new to Android devices, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I upgraded my x5 using the software and instructions from this thread successfully. The problem I had is that then I tried to do the same for my cousin's x5 on the same computer, it would not read it. Is there any reason for this or way to work around this?

[BLG]

i had to hit the pinhole button 5 times or more on mine before it would take,
i was getting worried,but then it beeped on my pc

I did that several times. Still nothing. Like I said, the first time went smooth. I dont know why I couldn"t do it on the second device.
