This sound like the software file is corrupted.
I would save your user file and softcam and load the software again using a fresh download from the Freesat web site.

I try that several times, and factory reset after changing soft, but the problem persist.

Yes I agree,

Try loading an older version and then upgrade again.
I have found this sometimes works.

You can't put older soft in this rec, has some protection, when you try to put older soft than is already in it won't let you!

Rename older bin flash.bin, reset power on receiver. As it tries to boot hold menu button in on receiver. Receiver will then give you a message it is upgrading and reverte back to the older software you renamed.

I Tried this, cause it does not work.
Display shows UP9 for a few seconds, and than the Box Boot normal.
Is the a Button to Push or any other "Trick" ?

I have heard that using the RS232 method works.

I also have tried other older versions.

I have used the 232 serial program here to see if it works and yes it works well. Read the instructions well. 9 pin serial cross connection is required and enough knowledge about a pc to configure your serial or usb port to match the program. Actually really easy!

Oh on the part where you choose your chip in the stb the instructions did not work for me on using date on box to match the stb chip. Do not worry though, if one setting does not connect when you click on connect just choose another till you find the right one. When it does not connect it can not communicate with pc and no harm done. :) Good Luck!

With an USB stick.

Take the firmware you want to apply from the download section.
Rename it to flash (keep extension .bin like the firmware file already has).
Put it into the root directory of the USB stick.
Plug the USB stick into the receiver and restart the receiver.
While the receiver is starting (boot message on the display), press the menu botton on the remote control.

The receiver will show a flash burning confirmation.

Hello, can you take a backup of your software to see if you have not connected to the CCCam account to watch the show?

Have you tried the flash.bin with different older versions of the software?

There are many older versions to choose from on the download page.

Put the 572 in my v8 this evening and yes it did freeze for a minute or two, remote will not work or nothing, just let it sit for another little bit and receiver came back to life working as it should. Looked to me like the reciver began a boot before the write to tsop actually finished.

Anyway, yes slight glitch but my recever works as it should except my (WEATHER APP). Nice if it worked but not a biggieeeee!

Then RS232 looks like your option.

I have wondered if you can find the version number in the software file and change it so older versions would load.

I do not have this problem as I have older hardware versions that do not block you.

If I have time I will try to find the Version number in the file and do some testing.

Hi.

I had the same problem with upgrade by USB but solution is very simply.

Try this software to upgrade your v8
