My vusolo2 FPGA update..

[sakisvele]

my solo2 is on the blink, turned it on 2 nights ago and im getting Hw error on the display, Box was not being flashed or worked on at the time. there was a usb stick stuck in the front usb port with movis on it but that there most of the time and has no images on it.
Reciever was bought from shl.gr on sept 2013 and is a genuine vu product, I checked the receiver with that 'show the love' checksite and compared the box with the clone pics online and the box is def not a clone, I don't think clones of the solo2 were about then anyway.
The receiver goes through the motions of flashing an image , finished comes up on the display and it gives an 8 sec countdown to restart,i then remove the usb stick and when it starts up it is says installing fpga, and after a while reading the usb (which is not plugged in by the way)writing and eventually 'Hwerror' displays on the vfd.
I try this FPGA Installation – Vu+ WIKI and i dont have the file for driver TS PRO.dat

We have openvix images for original boxes models to try if you wish and other stuff like manual of how to flash boxes
to my memory there is no bootloader for solo2 as i asked a while ago.

Hi,
if it works with an old image with old driver it is a sign of a defect or clone box. Quite a while ago VU changed the driver so that they refuse to work with clone boxes. On the other hand if you are really sure that it is a genuine VU then it can be a really defect.

The early ViX Apollo images was the last you could put onto a clone receiver. If that worked, you know what the problem is...

Can you look under box to see if it mentions v2?
found this also.
