Problem after flashing a ex7000 HD? - Techwatch Support Forums: Digital & Satellite TV, FTA, Cable, Computers, Mobile Phones, Apple and General Tech Forums

I've flashed the box with the latest firmware (using both USB and rs232 ways) and the box appears to be halting on "now booting" on the boxes display. Has anyone encountered this problem?

I'm going to reflash it with an older firmware but I thought I'd raise it just in case.

Thanks in advance.

Update. I've tried a re-flashing a few times. Again on both cable and usb. The box will open the new firmware and appears to write it to the box, once it's completed it repeatedly repeats "now booting" on the display. When you still have a usb key connected it also says "usb connected ok".

Anybody had similar issues?

Thanks in advance.

Any other ex7000 buyers had a problem like this?

Sorry to bump this. Problem still remains, has anyone had any issues with a bad flash? Also is there a workaround to restore the box to it's original state.

No display is shown so restoring factory defaults etc is out of the question?

Please read mine and andy20's posts-nagra 3 is the encryption that has rendered all of the Eurovoxes, Dboxes, Starviews etc.. useless in Ireland-NTL upgraded to nagra 3 just a short while ago. Whatever you try doing to your box, you will only get FTA channels

Thanks, i'm not in ireland. This problem is post flashing, in that the box powers up but no display appears and the box repeats a message on the actual box display say "now booting" but the boz doesn't actually do anything.

The box was fine and had all the channels scrambled, I updated the firmware and it appears this caused the problem with the box.

Again sorry to bump this.
