if it was running 257 prior to going off then most likely running the fixed version for clones,thats not to say it is a clone it could have just be loaded with that software as it will run on a genuine as well,if it is a clone then DO NOT touch the so called clonesafe being posted around as it is NOT clonesafe someone renamed it and it will kill clones
