You need to use a serial\null modem cable to update the firmware\bootloader as this can not be done via usb and channel freezing is not the problem, thanks anyway handyguy

hi

You say your box was working and now its not!.
did you unplug your sat cable to see if it was one of the channels that is resetting the box, as some peeps are still having trouble with channels resetting there box,,

And I did not know you could use a serial cable to update these boxes, much easyer to use a USB stick ,,

PC connection is used to try and revive a dead box with one of the bootloader softwares out there. USB's not going to help for that kind of stuff unfortunately

Same issue here. Box stuck at on. If you search forum for "box stuck on on " there some info in that thread. Didn't help me but some people managed to recover

would putting the original factory firmware on it get it back up and running?

Make sure it is a NULL MODEM CABLE and not an ordinary serial cable.

you always hit the connect button,then turn the receiver on with the switch in the back.You do this even with a good working receiver to connect.
