I have updated the software on my v7combo. with version 6.6.16.bin.

The team then has started well, but it has been all in black, and only
has the green LED on the front.

I tried to reactivate it for usb and I renamed the file as flash.bin
I put the USB and give ok command and the receiver does nothing.
Continuous dead, and only with the green light running.
I can do to reactive my dead receiver ???

As I can update nullmodem cable, please tools and softare ???
which software version I have to install, to reactivate ??

My TV supports 1080i and 1080p perfectly, also have more receptors and they all work perfectly, but this he died.
I have running other v7combo, v7hd, v7max, v8super, and v8gold.

This v7combo, died and there is no way to update the software.
I'm trying to load the soft via nullmodem with TCOM-upg program and I can not.
The program answers initover and when I send the file, responds no JAZZ fail

My V7 Combo died after I deleted 3 satellites from the "Sat List" at once.
Before this the unit was reporting "Out of Space" with 3500+ TV channels and 500+ radio.
My very early (first one sold on Eliexpress) V7 HD did the same thing, died after deleting a sat from the Sat list after reporting "Out of Space"
USB restore does not work.

Note: the USB restore function only works with the "Menu" button from the V7 remote, not from the V8 remotes.

RS232 goes as far as reporting; " mem alloc size 0x2c200,peak size 0x2c400,rest len 0x1dd3e00" and then stops.

I think the memory chip has failed from use. I do 10-20 blind scans a day and I'm always changing something.
I reported this to Freesat and I'm waiting on a reply.

Try the procedure again after disabling all antivirus programs on your pc.

Hi ngukura
Does this mean that you got the RS232 program to work after disabling antivirus software and that it did not work with the antivirus working?
