Hi I have a zgemma h2s box . Whilst trying to add a gift my son messed it up and did a factory reset . Now it wont do much ive tried to make it flash with a usb and a software down load . All that happens is the boot message comes up then it starts as usual without flashing . Ive tried 2 different downloads and same thing . Ive unzipped the file before moving it to the usb . Any help would be welcome as the box could well be destroyed soon .
 
firstly Welcome to DW please read rules and follow correctly :)

a little help to get you going

make sure you have formatted your USB to fat32, and put the files on stick in folder h3 I think its called and inside h3 should have a folder called zgemma also back usb on box
 
I will read now sorry just getting stressed with the box and kids . I did format to fat 32 I was following a youtube vid and cant get it to work .
 
You don't need to reflash. A factory rest just means the data in /etc/enigma2 gets deleted.

Have you tried a different USB stick?

As a note:
There are guides that say you must initailise the USB stick, be aware that this is formatting.
 
Ive just tried the full download again and just the only the h3 file . I have just bought a new usb but I will pop out and get another one to try . I have no idea whats happened but the box is unuasable even for the free channels since the factory reset .

not every memory key will flash.
I have about 10 memory keys and will only flash with sandisk and Kingston 2GB.
You need to copy the zgemma folder to memory key and flash it that way.
Also when you open the zgemma folder go the "h3" folder and open it.
You should have 5 files.
There should be one that says "force"
If it says "noforce" you will need to correct that and call it "force"
 
the image type comes up as release . What he has done is gone to tspanel / files / usr / keys Then he typed a free gift code as the cws on the top line . Then factory reset the box . I cant even get free view at the mo

get your hands on Kingston memory key mate.
2GB works 100%

Do what I previously said and copy "ZGEMMA" folder to memory key.
There is no "noforce" so it should flash.
I really do hope you inserted the memory key in the rear USB port then rebooted the box?
"DONT USE FRONT PORT"!!

You don't need to do anything as receiver will read it on boot.

The link below will work 100000%

ok thanks I will get a Kingston usb tomorrow [shops are shut today ] then try again .
 
You can install pedro's backupsuite and then flash the image that way. I'd recommend flashing an official image rather than a hacked image. Try openATV

Unzip the image and transfer to the USB flash drive.
