PARA Feralkiwi (V7HD)

Post by pedriles »

Feralkiwi ,tengo un problema con un V7, que no se me recupera por el metodo del usb y estoy probando por el RS232 y me quedo atascado en el momento que le pongo DDR2 y le doy a los tres puntitos, ya no me sale el firmware en el desplegable para poderlo seleccionar y terminar con el proceso. Me podrías indicar donde está el fallo, ya que por más vueltas que le doy no le encuentro solución.
Muchas gracias y un saludo.

Please have a look at this instruction on RS232.

The V8 Finder is based on the V7HD so it is the same method.

It sound like your RS232 communication is not reaching the V7HD.

Did you try the f;ash.bin method using different software versions?

flash.bin recovery is done like this.

Place a copy of the unpacked software (the .bin file) on a USB stick and rename it "flash.bin"
With the USB in the unit, power on while repeat pressing "Menu" on the remote. You must use the V7 remote on the V7.
The unit should reload the software.

Also other users say that you must use a USB stick, not a card holder etc and that stick must be 32Gb or under.

I have had units that will not recover.
Try using the same software as was in the unit when it crashed, not the new update software.
You must use the correct software, ie that for the V7HD, not software for any other freesat units.

Try even older software as the file for flash.bin.

Look at the LED in the USB stick. When the TV shows the message "USB Upgrade, do not turn off" you should see the LED on the USB flash as the file is loaded.
The USB LED should also flash a few times as the unit first powers on and looks at it.
Also users have said to use the rear USB port for this on V8 units.

Good luck
