Hi,

1st time posting. Any help would be appreciated, my question is, is it possible to get a board to jtag cloud ibox4?

I noticed you made a post for one that jtags cloud ibox 2 and 3 but would that also do this box?

Thanks in advance
 
Thanks for the reply. The box I have and want to jtag is a cloud ibox 4.

What is difference between, mini duo and VU+duo?

So would "
Cypress EZ-USB FX2LP CY7C68013A USB2.0 Development Board" not work for cloud ibox4?

In terms of jtagging nothing other than the jtag port is in a different position on the mobo. Of course the cypress board works.

The CFE/Bootloader to use is the Ferrari VU Duo version.
 
Had a quick google, didnt look readily available will look more later on when get a chance.

So you mean no development board for cloud ibox 4?

Ill explain my problem properly, basically ive sorted quite a few people out with cloud ibox4's (i did not put cline codes or anything). Been doing them as freesat boxes for few months. Then all of a sudden after christmas i had about 4-5 people telling me there box just suddenly stopped working. They say they havent done anything to it. Some said that after they restarted the box it wouldnt come back on stuck on red light.

I couldn't figure what had went wrong, i thought they may have updated a bad image on it but there is a warning label on it, they said they didnt and also not many problems before this, but all 4-5 happened this week. I googled it and only thing I can think of is a bad update somewhere or a timebomb.

I tried on one of them to restore a new backup but ethernet does not turn on and usb does not flash, but USB works on other new boxes.

Whats your thoughts? And suggestions on these 4-5 dead boxes I have? My main worry is that it keeps happening and i get few more dead boxes back. It would be really helpful if you can give me some advice thanks
 
The cypress board works on the ibox4 see the pinout you need to solder to to achive this with the cypress board.

Sorry about the link, bought it anyway when it comes will give it a go thanks. Do you have any suggestions as to what could have caused 4-5 boxes to have this problem in same week?
 
im trying to download your openpli backup and openatv to see if that helps, but it wont allow me, says i need 5 posts and i do?

Yeah then 24hrs after the 5the post, just so we can make sure and check new members don't post rubbish to get download privledges ;)
 
Oh i see lol, ok so what do you think its the better image to install on cloud ibox4 and why? I've only really tried OpenPli and OpenVix and they seem more or less the same to me. I seen on one forum you say OpenAtv is your preferred choice, how come?

Because it just works where other images fail.

Not all relevant to this box but it has Auto Bouquets for sat and cable coupled with inbuilt epg features. I was a big Blackhole fan but OpenATv all the way for me these days, both blackhole & OpenATV are now incorporating XBMX and GL in there builds, these 2 groups just innovate in a way others dont in my opinion.
 
thats great to here cant wait to try it out. because i think the OpenPli installed must have had an automatic update or a timebomb or something which bricked the boxes. It really stressed me to the point of wanting to give up on the cloud 4's.

I checked your download link: https://www.digitalworldz.co.uk/index.php?resources/2732/

But it has rats channel not auto bouquet like you say?

Rats it a channel list updater in that i downloads a list as apposed to creating a list as does the autobouqets.

I just checked the download and it still won't let me even though its been more than 24 hours, any ideas why mate?
 
Yeah download worked, you've been very helpful thanks.

Just trying to get it to work but doesn't seem to. I formatted USB fat32, put the downloaded OpenAtv file in the USB stick and extracted the files. Then I put the USB stick in back of box, bottom USB, switched box on, and have left it for like 15 mins and usually with my own back ups after 10 mins the reciever will switch to blue light. Any ideas?

I thought your boxes needed jtag ?

Just reflash the openatv image here flashed fine.

Try another usb stick or format it with the hp format tool.
 
Yeah some I think do. i'm just trying this on new boxes. Managed to sort it out thanks.

Just needed to take the USB out and then switch box on manually (different to when i done my own backup with openpli, would switch on as soon as it restored, possibly coz the image was already on the box).

Just trying to sort out the tuners now so I can view the channels
