I am trying to fix one for a friend f3 bricked ,how many images are there all the 1s I try say wrong file . has anybody actually recovered a bricked f3 ?
i dont have the box yet mate its a friends, so not sure if it can just be reflashed via usb, but i made him a usb up with channel list on and he says he cant update it because of a password, so im just assuming the option to update the image will be protected too, and looking into sorting so im upto speed when he brings it.can you not get menu to flash it that way
Thanx to the author/s of this kit
Instrucstions
1.Connect your RS232 LEAD to the SKYBOX F3 then go to device manager check which port your rs232 is on (port 1 is default)
Go to windows device manger to check
2.Now select corresponding port on the erom software.
3.Press upgrade & select the skybox f3.abs enclosed in the erom folder.
4.Switch off the SKYBOX F3 at the rear of the box.
5.Now press "NEXT" then turn the box on at the back you will now see "Com Port OK"
6.The loader will now start loading slowly. (allow the firmware time to load even if it hangs at the end wait for completion)
If it fails to start loading,turn the box off via the rear power switch & again press "NEXT" then turn the reciever back on,it may take several times before the box starts to load the firmware.
Ive tried this method and it does work
