As a general rule, if it isn't coded to reject firmwares above 1.5 then it will likely work. So it should work.Quote:

I know that when DarkAlex made 2.71 SE-C it allowed access to Kernel mode ( a mesh of 1.50 firmware and 2.71), but not sure if 100% capabaility for Kernel mode was added, which is required or was for the GPS receiver to work with MapThis.
I was just wondering if anyone here upgraded thier firmware to 2.71 SE-C and tested mapthis with GPS to see if it indeed worked. I could try this and if not downgrade back to 1.50 but I was just checking to see if anyone has done this already, Thanks.
steve, its actually 2 SEPERATE kernals both on flash. It is 1.5 if you use the game (if u dont set it, the GAME150) folder. also, i tried, and it does work.
Ok cool thanks, I didn't know that it loaded both the 1.50 and the 2.71 kernel on flash thanks for the response.
Works for me, and I do believe Deniska is running it too...
