Eurovox ex7000 pin locked out

[Bob Stains]

I've just flashed my box with the latest firmware. It seemed to be working ok then it started asking me for the 'pin'? Next thing, the whole box has 'locked me out' asking for the 'pin'? I've tried the default '0000', '1004' and '6502' ....nothing! anyone help?

6502 is the master pin switch off / on and try again

Thanks for the quick response but its not working? Soon as i turn the box on it displays 'enter pin'. I cannot access anything including the menu, can you please suggest anything else. I only got it today! cheers, Bob

Still not happening, not actually sure what is happening? The codes are going in as I'm getting the *'s when I put the numbers in. Any other suggestions?

not sure what else to do but try flashing with another firmware if you used the 3 12 09 i have read that some people are haveing some problems with it try this one Digital Kaos - Downloads - Eurovox EX7000HD 8-1-09 Firmware

only other code that i remember for euro is 1007,worth a shot

Thanks but it's still not having it. Is there any way I can revert to 'factory settings'? It'll need to be done at 'start up' because I can't access the menu or anything!

[Bob Stains]

Thanks for all your help guys but I can't get rid of the 'enter pin' thing! I've reflashed using both of the links kindly posted in this thread but its still the same. Any other suggestions? Getting a little panicky now!

[chic.]

[chic.]

a long shot but try holding in the menu btn when rebooting

[Bob Stains]

Thanks mate, already tried it..........no joy! Another 'Stella' helped a bit!

[chic.]

am on ma 5th brandy and getting a bit bosseyed, but still dont understand how you cant change the firmware what did it say on the front of the box when you tried to install it

[Bob Stains]

I've installed both the firmware suggestions made on this post. The latest was the FTA firmware. Both times 'flashed' ok but still getting the damn pin request!
