    OPENVIX TEAM: OpenViX 5.3 breaks Octagon SF4008!

    *****URGENT TO THE OPENVIX TEAM*****

    Please fix the image because if you try to flash it you block the SF4008 and it cannot boot!

    Waiting for your help.

    Use an older image and without logs your report is useless.

    How do I provide logs if the receiver won't boot?

    The issue is with all OpenViX 5.3 versions.

    I'm would imagine that someone would have reported this problem in the past 8 months since 5.3 was released.

    I thought I'd bricked my SF4008 some time ago and the WoS support team sent me this recovery file.
    It sorted it for me anyway.

    You should check how to install - this is a normal requirement for the sf4008 from the year dot and most people flash online with ViX ImageManager - much simpler

    This update was required for all images from February 2018, nothing to do with the ViX Team.

    I know how to install, since other images work, OpenViX doesn't.

    @a19a Until 3 weeks ago I used the SF4008 with the latest vix at the time with no problems whatsoever. I only changed the SF4008 because the remote control also controlled my Formuler Z8 and vice a versa , very annoying. Clearly you have problems,it may pay to explore other avenues than just vix. Good luck.
