Hello, i have a vu+ uno that won't boot. By mistake i' ve flashed a wrong image. In the past there where others in this forum with the same problem but with no solution in the end. Since this is a software problem i believe there must something that will bring this box back to life. Can anyone help; Thanks in advance.
The image was a backup for ultimo that a friend gave me and thought that it should work for uno also. He changed the image file from ultimo to uno and i found it out when it was to late.
We don't gave support to any kind of backupped image. I think you can flash your box with a clean image without problems.
My problem is not the image. I dont mind doing a clean install. The think is that when i try opening the box from the back switch i have only the red light on and nothing more.
No i haven't because my pc has no port rs 232. I will try to find one with a port com and use a nule cable right;
Here is Vu+ Flash utility V.2.01 Can´t you find a docking station for laptop? the most dockingstation has RS232! and a null cable should not be to hard to get? \ pirre
I 've tried vu+ util but something must be rong. The box is connected via serial cable, i choose the right com port, next uno and then the nfi file. I press start and i except to upgrade. In the 20% of the procces it says "enter into CFE mode" and with red letters "start or restart your machine". When i close and open the back switch sometimes util crashes or it does nothing. My operating system is Win 7 64 bit. Any idea;
If i remeber correct youre box should be off when you start the operation! Networkcable has to be connected aswell! try and report back!?
The box is off, the network cable connected. I follow the procedure i've described before and the result is the same. It crashes with the following message "Vu util.exe stopped working".
Ok! Mayby try another version of VUutility and as @chulbul say try with an original NFI before flash with BH see attached \ Pirre
I used another pc with Win 7 32 bit and my notebook also (Win 7 64 bit). Tried the older version of vu util with different nfi downloaed directly from vu+ and.....nothing. In the older version connects to COM but the Set IP button stays inactive and thats it. Meanwhile i opened the box and touched the black cooler of the chip i suppose. It is hot, i believe it works but for some strange reason i can't flash. Any suggestions;
USB to RS232 adapters could have problems, also Win7. To be sure at 99,9% use real RS232 (built in, PCI or PCI-E card) and WinXP.
