    Are you using winrar to open or extract it? If yes then winrar is the problem. This issue drove me mad thinking the files were corrupted. Install 7zip... I used this program and it opened the files which winrar said was corrupt. Works like a charm. Sent from my MAR-LX2 using Tapatalk

    I'm loving the 2205 updates as well as the 3.1 MCU... I was about to throw in the towel with this unit and get rid of it but with the quick boot feature working now, I'm just loving it.
