    Hi all can anyone help?
    i've downloaded firmware for blue eurovox and i'm getting a black screen and i can't do anything, remote wont work except for on/off.
    i think i must have the clone box. but i have updated before with the normal blue box update. (i'm comfused) if its the clone box is their anything i can do to get it back up working?

    check here to see if you have a clone then try and reflash with the april clone fix if it is a clone,you will need dnupman loader and the april firmware which can be found here

    i think your box may need jtaging,unless you can suceed with flashing it,thats the thing about the blue box, a lot of clones out there,i don't no if you seen sc0ucers warning when he posted the blue fix.

    Its basically to bring your box back to life,try the firmware you loaded the last time,with clones it takes a while for some firmware to kill them,so if you manage to get that back on to your box you may get a while out of it,it will mean inputting codes manually though.

    no bother this has happened a few people,funny the last genuine fix was ok,but i think eventually that would have bricked your box as well.

    i also have exactly the same problem, should i just keep downloading the april firmware onto the box until it works or should i use different firmwares to see which one works?

    and will jtagging definately work?

    thanks
