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.
Use the rear USB port on units that have two ports.

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

Yes this works on all the V7 and V8 units, but not the android unit.

However if you are just updating a working unit don't use this method.
The flash.bin method is for recovering a crashed / bricked unit.

To upgrade normally use the menu USB Upgrade.
Save your user data first from USB Backup and you softcam.key file (The code your unit has found) from the conditional access menu / key edit.

Also for V9 super
HOWEVER instead of renaming with extension BIN you need to rename it to ABS
