I have an openbox x3 stuck on load wot I mean is it rolls the L numbers at power on gets to L100 then goes back to the begining ..
I was putting the latest firmwear on box but did a factory reset first,but it finished up going into this load-up loop
I have downloaded all the files for openbox X3 and F3 skybox (eeprom _upgrade..ect )but cannot get my X3 to flash ....has anyone had an X3 with this problem and got it back on its feet .or is there a tut or magic file out there Ive missed
I have spent days trying to flash this box

As long as it's just a corrupt or blank flash,the receiver can be fixed.I kill my receiver daily with oddball firmware and then revive it.Leave a comment:

I am in Ghana and I wish I could pay the guy who put up this tutorial for his service. I have revived a dead clone open box S10 and another open box s10 that the electronics repairer said was not useable and condemned with this software thanks for opening my eyes and the wisdom imparted into me. God bless youLeave a comment:

The problem was boot loader corrupted.
Red light only can be boot loader problem.
I wasn't able to refresh it because of com1 wrong configuration.
With new swttings erom upgrade works.
Now after powering I can see scanning on display...
