Channel list update bricked my Openbox V8S

[carlozdre]

I've updated the channel list on my 3 days old Openbox V8S from cwaite's to AJ's and got it bricked, it's stuck on Load now.

Have tried to reset, remove cables, whatever, nothing happens.

Couple of questions please:

1. Is that approach with the RS232 serial cable going to work on my box too? (http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums...ll-modem-Cable)
2. Anything else I can do now to maybe start it? I don't have a serial to USB cable and got a La Liga football match I wanted to watch tonight.

Thanks.

Do you guys think any of these cables might be alright for me?

For some reason AJs will brick a v8s box I was told by the person I bought mine off on eBay, they sent me a link to get the latest channels which work as I've done my box ok

There's an all-in-one lead on ebay that doesn't require an additional null modem cable, & has worked for some members:-
