(help) how to load Vix image over Vti image

[thor1]

I am trying to help a friend install Vix image, he has a Vu Ultimo with Vti installed, we cannot get it to flash is there something where missing

Try a different USB, that is sometimes an issue for some. There is no reason otherwise for it not to work, as long as it's a genuine receiver of course and not a clone.

I have tried 3 different usb pendrives all with same results, it just boots to the Vti image

You are pressing the CH- button on the front of the receiver?

what ever I do it boots vti image

Have you tried a different USB port and made sure there are no other USB devices plugged into the receiver at the same time ??.

Is there only 1 USB devcie connected? If so which port?
Is it in fat32? Have you tried using the format tool on it?
Do you get the prompt?
What is the folder layout of the update package on your USB stick?

I have tried 3 ports on receiver, no other usb devices plugged in, when I download new vix image what do I put on usb drive ie folder called ultimo with files inside

extract the image and copy the entire vuplus folder directly to the USB stick, you dont need to make any other folders or remove any already in the archive.

I do not get any prompts

If you dont get the prompt it means it is not seeing the USB stick or the image, make sure the folder structure is correct as in my post above.

Folder should be vuplus --> ultimo --> files
