vix 734 update stuck on 47%

[robti]

Hi trying to update my twin with the latest drivers and decided to go through the vix download manager route rather than just upgrading, so downloaded the file and then selected the file to upgrade now stuck on 47% for the last 30 mins, any help on this?

Thanks

Grab a usb stick download version 734 and stick it on the root of the usb stick and bung it in the front usb port and do the update that way.

I have a different model to you but... at the back of the receiver there should be a on/off switch near the power cable, just switch if off from there, stick the usb stick in and power it back on and follow the on screen instructions

Okay got it just switched off at the front and upgraded hung again at 47% but only for a few seconds the finished

Using a USB stick reflash the receiver directly to Build 734 from the download site www.openvix.co.uk

Thanks all
I was stuck at how to power the box off as it had froze in the middle of a flash so didn't want to brick it, just did the update by usb and all working now

It's a good idea when dealing with kernel updates to do a fresh flash rather than a online update, you can then use a settings backup to restore and plugins and settings if required once the image has been flashed.
