Hi and welcome to Techwatch
have you checked your remote is working (look at the transmitter through a digital camera and see if it flashes when you press the buttons)
to see if its the new firmware thats causing your problem try going back to earlier firmware that you had working OK

when you say the box went down what actually happened.
were you previously inputting keys manually
which firmware was on the box before you got your problems
are the buttons on the box working
are you using gtrom loader 4.03 to flash the box with
is your box a genuine SV2

Same happened to me. Remote wouldn't work. Had the wrong firmware on it. You need 4.57.
