    If you can't repair it, leave it as you found it, don't destroy it.

    I know that you can cause HDMI issues if you pull the HDMI Cable out sometimes when in use, but to be honest the HDMI ports on these units are actually robust.
    I would suggest that you reflash the firmware to a very old version to re-enable the HDMI port and then flash back to whatever version your using now

        Before reflashing your box, have you checked that the video resolution is set to a resolution that you TV can detect on the HDMI output?

        My TV can sync to all resolutions, but not all TV's can.

        Try scrolling through the different resolutions to see if there is one that your TV likes.
