STEP 1 : Choose the image firmware that suites you best and download it, ensure that the firmware Image you download is 100% completed. The firmware is in Zip format and you have to extract it first using Winrar, after extracting the firmware you will have a folder called Cloudix depending on which firmware you downloaded. Also don't forget to download the Boot loader files, and extract them too in a separate folder.
STEP 2: Prepare your USB Flash drive, and i recommend one with indicator light either 4gb/8gb. Before flashing your receiver,you need first to update the Boot loader. Format your USB drive in FAT32 option and then Copy the extracted folder from your boot loader zip file, to your Flash drive. Switch off your receiver from the back switch, and then plug in your USB drive containing the boot loader files Only. Switch On your decoder and wait until the boot loader is updated, you will see the word DONE on the front display of your receiver. Switch Off your Receiver from the back switch, and unplug the USB drive. If you downloaded Black-hole,Open Pli4...etc after extracting it you will have a Folder named Cloudix, which is the latest version depending on which firmware you downloaded. With the boot loader now finally updated, it's time to flash your Cloud-ibox 3 with the image of your choice between Black hole, Open Pli 4, Open ATV...etc. Format your USB drive again, and then copy the extracted folder named Cloudix, to your USB drive.
STEP 3 : Switch Off your Cloud-ibox 3 decoder from the back switch, and then Plug in your Usb Flash drive that contains your firmware updates, to the back USB port. Switch On your Cloud-ibox 3 decoder, and immediately you will notice your Usb flash drive indicator light blinking, wait for it to finish upgrading your decoder and check out for the word DONE! on the front panel of your decoder which will confirm to you that your Cloud-ibox 3 has finished updating.
