    Tiviar Bricked / Boot Loop ?

    Hi I Bricked my Tiviar Alpha Plus (or stuck in a boot loop)
    I ordered from WOS a few weeks ago with Openatv and I then usb flashed another users same image with settings no problems.
    I was trying to change from openatv 6.1 and usb flash Openvix for a test, I had trouble flashing the box this time it would just boot as normal not recognizing the USB tried all the recommended trouble shooting to no affect so then tried a factory reset... now the the box will not boot, on the LCD it runs from -00- to -100- then back to and continuously from -50- to -100- again and again with the Openatv 6.1 logo and timer icon on the TV screen, still wont recognize a usb and I cannot telnet with Putty.
    any fix out there?https://www.world-of-satellite.com/i.../confused1.gif

    Highly unlikely being bricked. You’ll probably need to try different usb flash drives. Also refresh yourself with the guide on how to flash your receiver to make sure you are doing it correctly.

    I usually use BOOTICE by Pauly to repartition and format usb drives for flashing.
    Some instructions here if you want to try it:

    Got it!, Thanks guys.
    Finally BOOTICE must of shifted one of my USB sticks into gear, I did not realize just how picky it can be usb wise,
    Sometimes patience is a virtue with these boxes.
