Hi guys this seemed to work for me so id be grateful if someone else could test it.

I spent the last week dissasembling the smargo 1.3 update in ollydbg to try and crack it to downgrade any firmware, although i managed to get it to report any version number i wanted it was still failing checks, Then i stumbled onto a simple trick

Unrar the two updates ive uploaded here http://www.multiupload.com/MR345PHGHP

SmartreaderUpdate_v1.5.exe and SmartreaderUpdate1.3.exe

plug your smargo in and click update on SmartreaderUpdate_v1.5.exe

This will then tell you to unplug your smargo which you should do and then ctrl+alt+del and kill the 1.5update process

plug the smargo back in now while there is no smargo update program running and run the SmartreaderUpdate1.3.exe

Click Update and it should flash the 1.3 Firmware,

after its done set it up again to whatever settings you use and test it,

It certainly reports as 1.3 but i guess the guys who had probs will need to test it to see if it irons out the problems they were having
