Good Morning All,

My VU+ Uno got stuck on "Reflash in Progress" for the night, it was still there in the morning.

I turned it all off and on again, I have tried to reflash from a USB but the "Reading from USB" is not kicking in for some reason. I had this problem when an external hard drive was installed, when I disconnected the hard drive the reading from USB kicked in okay. Now I have an internal drive installed so don't want to disconnect that to reflash from the USB.

I have tried to flash older images to work forward to the latest image but the Uno gets stuck in the "Reflash in Progress".

Any advice, help or suggestions please? Would doing a factory reset be the answer?

Have Ultimo on Vix 750 upgrading to 770 via the image manager how long should it take as it seems to have got stuck on updating. Tried updating via usb sticks and after the spinning vix it switch off instead of telling me to take out usb stick and rebbot.

A suggestion for the future: Maybe you can state whether a reflash is needed (as opposed to an online update) for big changes in the changelog? I always see what has been changed before I do the online update. Might be helpful for those that read them.

Also just incase anyone is wondering I'm not talking about the changelogs that are released on the forum, but the notes that can be read directly on the VIX image when viewing the available updates through a software update.

that is exactly what i meant earlier, i do understand that when reflash is needed then this topic gets updated.... be a message on the top of changelog would warn everybody from updating!

read the very first post in this thread.

I have tried to update via the image manager and by usb stick but always stays on 750?

 

[Sanjhere]

I know all the Admin must be really busy with all these changes and the amount of help and assistance required is probably more than normal.

Can anyone advise me with my problem please? I used to do the software updates every couple of days so I presume the images were up to date . . . . why can't I reflash? The box keeps getting stuck at reflash in progress.

I am now getting "not supported mode" when viewing the TV and I have to turn it off at the mains to restart. It will then work okay for a while then I'll get not supported mode again.

Thank you

Same here, when i wanna update through the updatemanager. The flashings starts according to my screen and on my LCD display i see "Reboot 99" and it stays on that forever. When i restart the box i am at the same image as previous so no update has been done. Flashing with USB stick works very well but a bit more hassle

Same here Tuneboy2005 nobody seems to know how to fix it.

you must flash your receiver to a minimum of build 760 via USB if the USB method is not working try via the inbuilt image manager in the image it self.

Have tried flashing build 770 all day and like other people on here gets stuck on flashing.

 

[Larry-G]

well i flashed 5 different receivers today with build 770 and all went fine, via both USB and the image manager.

It's not just me other members are having the same problem,updating by USB stick goes through the updating then switches of instead of saying remove USB stick and reboot,when using update manager to flash box it just freezes.

I didn't say update manager, i said you could not use online updates from builds earlier than 760. Try via the image manager with the restore option ( blue button> ViX> image manager ), if this fails we need the corresponding debug logs or ideally rs232 serial putty logs.

 

[Blu-ray]

Build 770 is not earlier than 760 have tried via the image manager and usb stick, now wondering if something is wrong with my Ultimo box?

 

[Larry-G]

my ultimo is currently recording so i cant test the online update feature but i have used it to update several TM and Vu+ boxes from build 770 to 772 today just fine.

again we would really need to see debug logs from the failed updates in order to see whats going on.

 

[Blu-ray]

Nothing in the logs.

 

[Larry-G]

Nothing in the logs.

do you have debug logs activated ?, not crash logs.
