GT MEDIA V8 UHD 4K ULTRA HD HEVC H.265

Post by Naslund019 »

I have a problem with this receiver, before it started working sometimes, although before the boot was lit on the receiver display, and now it can't be started, the boot is still lit, I don't understand why this problem occurred and how to solve it, thanks in advance for the answers

You can try using a different power supply; if you only follow the pilot light, you'll need to use a programmer clip to recover it.

please advise what exactly to use a more powerful power supply, now there is this MODEL: A-18-12
INPUT: 100-240VAC,50/60Hz,0.5A
OUTPUT: 12V---1.5A
and if the power supply you recommend here in the message does not help, then send me a programmer clip that I should try, thank you in advance

CAJE means that you try another power supply if you have one.
It needs to be 12V 1.5A, or 2A.

If changing power supply makes no difference, then recovery methods can be tried.

so I'm writing a little late but the upgrade via usb didn't help at all and the inscription on the display didn't move at all, the same thing still lights up, I tried all the options, overwriting the M.rs firmware to flash.bin. then update.bin even without overwriting the firmware, the M.rs firmware is there, I just don't know what version it is, there is an active ApolloPro.IM.151 subscription and even the adapters didn't help, I tried 1.5 V and 2.0 V for Linux receivers in the middle with such a brick, advise what to do next, I also have a laptop at my disposal, not a desktop computer

You must use the latest IKS firmware renamed to update.bin

Keep trying; if it doesn't work, try a different USB device.

I'll try it over the weekend with another USB, what capacity should the key be? Any 8GB or can it be smaller? Do you think I have to stop booting and overwrite the firmware with another USB key? Are you sure that this will work?
What firmware should I upload to a clean FAT 32 USB key so that it will definitely overwrite it, and then rename the firmware to update.bin, insert it into the USB input of the satellite receiver, turn on the receiver with the button on the back, and hold OK pressed or Menu pressed on the remote until UP9 appears?

The USB format can be FAT, FAT32, or NTFS; the size and whether it contains files or folders are irrelevant.
The update.bin file must be in the root of the USB drive. You will find UPg by pressing the keys and then USB, and how it's being charged

Here are my notes on flash.bin recovery
From the PDF file for the V7 V8.
6. V7 V8 USB forced upgrade:::
6.1. Connect the power, and press “MENU” continuously with the remote control.
Note: Press the button continuously.
This should read repeatedly"

6.2.Digital tube shows UP9,,,After releasing the MENU button, enter the upgrade mode
Also I find that the usb should have 20 or less files on it.
