Never knew that I've always said rear USB by default lolyou can FLSH from the front port but the default is the rear USB, remove any other drives that are connected... with the flash USB in the rear port, power the box on via the rear power switch on the box (the base ATV image is by default a noforce image so either edit the file name noforce to force & save or press the front power button to start the FLSH process).
It will flash eventuallyCheers guys. It is pretty strange. Been flashing these boxes for years with no issues. Tried all of the tips here. Will give it a another try tonight. Been at it for hours!
Told myself that every time it got to 49! Must have tried about 30 times at least I reckon! On a mission to get this sorted tonight.It will flash eventually
Will attempt if no luck later. CheersHave you tried to flash another image, then trying atv again
May not do anything but worth a try
Says flash first then starts booting until 49
Some progress...I think. Formatting a 4th usb and tried the front port. Box flashed past 49 and now frozen on 00?!
Ok, I've read the thread and maybe I missed it but I don't think I have.
Roughly how long is "FLSH" displayed for on the front before it attempts to reboot ?
It varies, depending on the speed of the USB drive but 90 - 120+ secs. would be a good guide for a full flash.
It's at least a minute I reckon...
While its flashing the H2S does not display a counter, it just says "FLSH" .
Then goes to "Boot", remove the USB used to flash at this stage.
Yep, says flsh for abit then boots up to 49.
Remember the smaller the size of the USB drive the better. 4GB is ideal. What size have you been using?
1GB, 8GB X2 and a 64GB!
I suspect its not flashing anything.
It's at least a minute I reckon...
