Update using a USB flash drive. Instructions and update can be found on the official MS website. Google it. Also, you may want to return to stock before updating to rule out any more problems occurring.
IT doesnt matter, he already did the update and his drive is already flashed.
The only reason he can't finish is because the drive has already been flashed to 0251 firmware and can't read the backup.
Now all he has to do is flash to 2.0 again and put his backup or original back in and finish the update or go the route to get the update and put it on the USB stick and finish it. Either route he has to flash back to 2.0 again.
