  • I see you have two of those boxes. if you had them both from the same place i suggest you downgrade the firmware on the working one back to 1.2.58e if i was you.

  • Hello, i tried to instal e2 image and it stuck on boot.


    I can goto spark but when i go to soark menu to update, there is no 1.2.51 e2 update. Can anyone help?


    Thanks

  • Hello, introduction done.


    I have tried hdmu image pkteam too and have always the same problem.


    I have installed e2 image in other receivers, and my problem its ony that in online sark update i dont have the 1.2.51 boot upgrade.


    It gos from 1.2.50 to 1.2.52.


    This my problem.


    Thanks

  • Hmm strange
    When i go to spark upgrade software and i scroll down then i see spark_1.2.51 E2 Boot Upgrade EU.
    So it is strange that you can not see that.

    Someday everything will all make perfect sence.
    So for now laugh at the confusion,smile through the tears and keep reminding yourself that everything happens for a reason.

  • Yup i think will send it to seller to exchange. I've already have try everything, dunno what to do now.
    But anyway thanks for reply :)


    Regards


    If you have bricked any box yourself by putting in certain software that did not come with the box in the 1st place, then i
    don't think this is the fault of any seller.


    You are after all trying to introduce something to the box that wasn't on it when you bought it, so any installing of software
    is entirely at your own risk & that goes for any box.


    By the way, i am not a seller either.

  • I think not that there is a way to restore completly to factory with no e2.
    Look here : Amiko Alien 2
    And have you contact your reseller for this problem
    Have you tryed the latest hdmu or a older one.

    Someday everything will all make perfect sence.
    So for now laugh at the confusion,smile through the tears and keep reminding yourself that everything happens for a reason.

  • Please be VERY careful when trying the above because the information is slightly wrong, this problem only tends to occur when you have tried loading or booting to E2 without the correct u-boot update and there is only one version of Spark that also includes a u-boot update, so try the above by all means but you MUST make sure you go for Spark 1.2.52 E2 Update, if you don't you will have problems with E2 and booting methods.


    I personally would advise our own customers to please never try this yourselves unless you are 100% sure you know what you are doing, we'd much rather you contact us and let us do the job for you. If you purchased elsewhere then best to check with your supplier as their terms maybe different.







    Amiko alien 2 morto aqui no Brasil,menos de 24 horas de teste,ferrou,fica parado no
    relógio,não aceita o putty,já fiz de tudo,de uma luz pois já, vejo muita conversa sobre o mesmo,pra mim e inviável mandar para outro pais


    Here Amiko Alien 2 Dead not Brazil, Less than 24 Hours test, screwed, there IS Stopped Clock, NOT AGREE putty,'ve done everything from POIs Have A light,
    I see lot of talk about the SAME, TO ME paragraph and send another country unviable

  • I would do neither and contact your supplier to cure this problem for you however if you do have a go yourself then you MUST make sure once you get Spark to boot that you do an online update to Spark 1.2.51 E2 as this is the ONLY Spark update which contains a U-boot update which if you don't do you run the risk of never being able to boot to E2 again. AGAIN WE ASK THAT NONE OF OUR OWN CUSTOMERS EVER TRY THIS simply contact us if you have a problem such as this and we will look at recovering this for you.


    Many thanks for your Message, it does help me a lot.
