H9S problem

[castro]

tinkering with the settings of my new zgemma h9s, i must've enabled additional voice-over for the visually impaired... can't find how to get rid of it again... anyone know?

thanks, willow. but that didn't work. factory reset had to solve the problem... also, i can't seem to flash my box online, nor by usb. no idea what i'm doing wrong. apparently 122 updates waiting. too risky to update via software updates? thanks!

Don't do the updates as they corrupted the build last time i tried.

ok, cheers! no rush, but if some time someone could point me in the right direction how to do this properly, i'd really appreciate it.

i like corruption how much is it worth

there'll be some reward, no worries! ;)

never factory reset a zgemma ,just follow the flashing guides for the zgemma and low level format usb ,umpteen threads in there with same issues,and usb only inserted when box is powered off any other usb devices removed and setup from scratch.
Save any lines and cfg files if needed before flashing.

 

[castro]

ok, cheers for that! will try tomorrow. all threads i could find relate to former zgemma models...

Usually done the same way but files need to suit the box you want to flash,boxes can be a fecker to flash with usb sticks not seen and to use a good quality usb stick 8gb kingston ,cruzer,and integral i use for my boxes.

 

[castro]

thanks mate! will do my best and let you know how i get on. wish me luck.

 

[cactikid]

all the best

So, I tried and tried and tried again flashing my new H9S box. Online and using usb, nothing worked. - Remember Homer Simpson: "So you've tried your best and failed miserably. The lesson is: never try!"

I guess I'll just have to wait for an improved update.
Still, thanks for all support!

What usb are you using as many have issues.

used a decent toshiba 8GB stick, properly formatted to FAT32 and all. But "took your advice onboard and ordered an 8GB Kingston data traveller today. Maybe that'll fix it.

Yes, just found this here: "Unzip the download and put the folder and other files onto USB. Turn off box insert USB. Press the reset button on back of box opposite side to power button. Hold reset button while powering on and keep pressing reset button till air digital icon on front panel changes colour then release and wait for it to boot up."

Will try that! (didn't realise there's a reset button!) Cheers!
