Note 1: Bq pages went down, probably forever. Please use http://web.archive.org/web/202007200...opers-program/ instead.

Note 2: In february 2021 firmware files hosted on amazon cloud are no longer available

Send me a private message and I can pass you a link to the file. Only available for Cervantes 2013, Cervantes 3 and Cervantes 4.

You need to install Developers edition firmware to be able to install KOReader or other software. This means you'll lose the nubico store and adobe drm support.
As Bq servers went down you can not register your serial number and the firmware installetion crashes.
Any idea how to install Developers edition firmware on a Cervantes 3 device?
