    Default flashing bricked openbox S10

    I have tried searching some exact info on this forum, and found out that some has succedded burning software on S10 through null cable.
    Is there any chance to get an idiot guide, step by step how to do it?
    What software etc...
    I got 2 boxes bricked one is displaying ON and not doing anything the other is not even doing that just nothing on display.
    Any help would be appriciated.
    Openbox S9, S10, F4

    If you do/don't figure it out -- follow up as I would like to know.

    hi m8 i think the way to reflash s10 is the same as s9, use erom updater, select firmware, i included bootloader and press next then switch box on at the back and hope it works. hope this helps.

    Big thanks to those that contributed to this thread.

    I have downloaded the file from hooley
    http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums...7/#post1118515
    used most recent June software
    i was using desktop PC with build in com port, running windows 7
    haven't change any settings on eromupgrade
    just switched it on, clicked next, box on after 1 second, and off it goes, both boxes done no problems, 1st time.
    no timing issues no nothing, just success on first attempt

    thanks again to all who contributed.

    Ah no. Iv only an sd tv in kitchen, so I actually prefer the eagle in there. 3 day epg and proper channel lists.
    The openbox is in storage till i get a hd tv in there. I only tried flashing it the one time and didnt stick with it. Im sure if I really wanted id get it going.
