you wont have a problem (damage) loading the red on a blue and vice versa it just wont scan proper so just load the other firmware but if you load it onto a clone you'll probably brick it and will have to jtag it back to life!theres a few pics floating about to id clones.

I bought mine 3 months ago for €130 including till receipt and 12 month warranty which I successfully tested recently. Apparently original as I also checked that too! New firmware which I installed yesterday running just fine on it.

Yep, that included courier delivery within Ireland. Had bricks and mortar address for them too (UK). Did a bit of research first. Heard plenty of positives about seller.

There are a few sellers on this forum offering reasonable value too.

thats a bit steep for a clone m8 you should be able to buy an original for that, and firmware will not brick a clone instantly it'll run fine for a while then when your not expecting it it'll die.
