hey peeps,
i use box for c*ble side,
im using dk image,
most of today my box has stuck on the green light!
everytime i switch the plug on its just stuck in green light,
the screen is black and blank,
its not responding to remote or to the buttons on the box.

i unplugged it and plugged it back in with no luck.

i've just flashed it,
whilst it was flashing the red light came on,
i've now connected it to my tv and
the light is still stuck on green.

as soon as its plugged in the light sticks in green,

any ideas peeps?

Did you flash using dreamup and make sure the power was off when you started the programme ?

btw these boxes must come with a 1 year warranty right?
only had it since december/jan time i think

**mtv1** · 26th May, 2009, 10:25 PM

warranty void if u flash or change software but you could give it a go

and read the instructions on how to get your box working.

Failing that i'll Pm you an Image

Cant see your box being faulty and you forgot to mention if it did work before.

box has been working perfectly,
i was watching a dvd on my dvd/vcr combo,
once i finished, i then put it on the c*ble and
since then its just not been working

i flashed dk image again but the green light still stuck!!
(the dk image i flashed was the v1.1 one)

so now i decided to put openmedia original image on,
connected it to tv,
its still a black, blank screen and the green light is still stuck on but,
the only good news is that when i press any button on the remote or the box the green light flashs and responds even though it doesnt actually do anything

any ideas peeps?

cgscott please can you send pm the image?

you will have to flash it with dreamup and a null modem cable now.
Then you can flash back to dk image

i have already flashed it with dream up with a null cable,
its got the original openmedia image on it right now.

just to clarify are you telling me to flash it again with dk v1.1 and it should work?

**cgscott** · 26th May, 2009, 11:21 PM

Yes but do it through dreamup.

More stable.

**aftermath** · 26th May, 2009, 11:27 PM

once you flashed original image with dream up , you can then flash DK image or other image with flash wizard pro, or dreamup

i've flashed dk v1.1 twice through dreamup with the null cable,
it successfully flashed twice on the box but,
as soon as i plug it in and connect to the tv,
its blank, black screen, and the green light is stuck.

so then i flashed the original openmedia image through
dreamup with null cable modem,
it successfully flashed!

i then connected it to tv,
and its still a black, blank screen and the green light is still stuck on but,
like i said the only good news is that when i press any button on the remote or the box the green light flashs and responds even though it doesnt actually do anything
