Hi

I think but not 100% sure that the loader for this is different for the s16. Maybe slugworth can give you more info on this as he is pretty clued up on this.

Latest S16 firmware killed my box

I killed my OpenBox clone by loading latest S16 firmware from another site ( S16 134OK 0808)
RS232 not connecting, earlier it use to connect before this update.
I tried different loaders 0c,0b,0f etc but none connecting
getting

"Target not connect or target is error status!"
