    Same problem with my box both on-line and USB update from 007 to 008 cause box to hang at booting message with or without restore settings or clean install hopefully 009 will fix

    Well ive just tried that with same results as windy1603 posted up the box just hangs on boot up, i always use the same trusty usb pen so i know thats not the issue. also i just updated ota my hd51 box & that worked perfect so it must be a compatibility or driver issue with the last few updates for the sf4008.

    My test image works OK so my guess is something might have gone flaky in the release feeds for this box.

    Edit: looks like Sicilian has already fixed it.

    Update 5.1.008 CRASHING MY BOX

    How can you set up detais if it fails to boot?



    The test is following:

    Flash 009. (Flash using image manager or USB). Do not update.



    Does it start?

    Do you get the option to set input etc?

    Does it crash?

    Does it go in a bootloop?

    Can you telnet in?
