Use the same usb stick as you used to flash original Vu+ image.

Make sure you are using a clean original (not a backup image) of BH 2.1.4 and try again.

Yes, it was clean original (not a backup image) of BH 2.1.4 , but box revert to original Vu Duo again.
I repeat box is genuine if you prefer I can send a picture of rear sticker . Please let me know.

At the end- success. EvO you are realy magician
- using the sam stick solved the

problem.Thanks a lot to all of you, but special thanks to EvO- no more doubts wether my

box is genuine or not. This was a long battle , but at the end we find solution of this strange problem

Quote from Ev0

Ok if you are sure you have a 100% genuine box, then please flash to original Vu+ software.

If the update works ok, then try to flash to BH 2.1.4

Installed original image completely , after inserted stick with duo_cfe_3_0_usb and stick with BH 2.1.4 but unfortunatelly box revers to Vu Duo original previosly installed.
Flashed back with Full Back Up BH 2.0.4 successfuly.
Contacted the seler of box and he confirm that box is genuin one

What I can try next , please ?

Quote from Ev0

Sorry clones are not supported on this site, and I don't support them either.
You were asked early on in this thread, if your box was a clone and you replied it is 100% original.

You will need to do your own research and tests now to findout if it is genuine or a clone.

If you can findout that it is genuine then i'm happy to help, but I think we both know the answer now don't we

Since now I was 100% sure that is genuine, but some members confused me with their posts.Read that BH 1. 7 6 was the last image fleshable on Vu Duo clone, but as I have now BH 2.0.4 how you will understan this, please.Googled to find out how to make check but nothing useful.
Please don't make final conclusions before we do valid and final test.
Thanks for understanding and if you can help me with some advices wich are not contrary with the Forum rules I'll highly appreciate

Sorry I missed your reply.

Ok so you have successfully installed the original Vu+ image without a problem ?

If so, now try to flash BH 2.1.4 again (don't use a backup image, start with a clean fresh image).

Not yet installed original image - received message that if box isn't original one, then is not possible install any other image after BH 2.0.4.
I bot it as second hand and now I am not sure what is realy brand.Please let me know how to check it.
Sorry to be anoing to you but I have to clear actual situation.

Quote from master G

EvO`s suggestion was to flash the original image, if that works try to flash Black Hole. Can you confirm you have tried this. If not try the suggestion then report back.. Do you now want to stay on the original image and need a tutorial on how to set it up ?

Thanks for reply.I am waiting to clarify situation regarding the box original or clone.I strongly beleive that is original, but receiving information whih confuses me.

Quote from Ev0

Delete it from the hdd

But if that does not solve the problem, then you really need to flash to another image (original is best, but vti, openvix, openpli, openatv etc etc will do), then if that goes fine, you can try to flash to BH 2.1.4

Deleted bsckups, but result is the same.
Please give me link to load original BH

Hi EvO
Stil waiting your assistance, please help me.

Do you have a backup saved on the hdd ?

Yes, I have

Quote from technodvl2

ok here

have you used multiboot or meoboot with the image that works ?
you may need to disconnect HD as there maybe a conflict

have you tried installing ORIGINAL image
then the new blackhole image

Display More

No, not used multiboot or meoboot.
No ,not tried to install ORIGINAL image.

Sorry EvO but I am aware what I saying- front USB is working properly because when I insert USB stick with BH 2.0,4 loaded- then box is reading USB and flashing is working normaly.
Don't like to switch to another images as I prefer BH.

Quote from Ev0

1) Have you confirmed the front usb port is working and it recongnises your usb stick ?
2) Have you tried to use the rear usb ports for flashing ?

Front USB port is working .Confirmation of this is that whe flashing BH 2.0.4 all passing O.K.
Tried rear USB and result is the same.After "Starting" box going on Vu Duo and continuing load BH 2.0.4

This is actual situation. Would add some else- try with other BH images ( after BH 2. 0.4 ) but alwais same situation - box loads BH 2.0.4 .
If try to flash BH 2.0.4 all is normal.Strange but this is it.

Quote from cazuela

Forget that idea..
This video is for flashing on DUO:

This id "clasic" procedure for flashing on Vu DUO.
Ofcourse I am following strictly as is explained and have done meny times before, but now isn't functioning.
Like to hear experince from some of other Vu Duo users ,any one faced same or similar problem.

Quote from cazuela

Sounds like it doesnt recognise the vuplus folder and/or its contents.....
don´t know about the DUO, but the UNO you have to press the "- channel" button for it to read the usb stick....
otherwise it goes straight to the image already on..

" channel" buton-which one, ftom RC or....

Hi EvO,
Each step is done correctly, egzactly as you mentioned above, but box reject to read USB after "Starting"- return to load BH 2.0.4 installed.
This is actual situation- what is the reason only God knows.

Quote from cazuela

That has nothing to do with whatever the box /image chooses..
I have just tried to reflash an UNO with the same usb stick that I flashed a DUO2 minutes before it and it wouldn´t work for the UNO!"!!!
But as you already have all this experience then it shouldn´t be such a surprise...
My last suggestion on this is try stick another image ( BH 2.1.0 for example ) on the stick and see if the box will accept it..

I try as you suggessted but result is the same as before.
Box cannot read USB.
What we can try next, please.

Quote from samsid

sometimes these boxes are picky with usb sticks, try a smaller stick,4gb, as mentioned earlier you always have rs232 option

Stick is properly 4 GB of volume.
This problem make me crazy- why and why......

Quote from cazuela

You can try from original source :

Code

[URL='www.vuplus-community.net/board/attachments/blackhole-2-1-4-bm750_usb-zip.17073/']DUO BH 2.1.4[/URL]

As I stated before tried wit BH 2.1.4 files dowloaded from different sites, but result is always the same.
So I don't beleive fail is no good- problem lies somewhere else, but where who knows

Quote from cazuela

The new reflash will clean just about everything previously on the flash..
so no need to do anything but flash the new image ..
another thing :
Is this correct?? I don´t have a DUO but usually clean Vu+ images are 4 or 5 files within the vuplus folder..
I would try another source to download the image from...

Code

http://workupload.com/file/ub2bja4n

Sorry mate ,but this link is empty- nothing to download.You cen check file BH 2.1.4 from this site and see what are inside.

Quote from tpmm

I read that 2.1.4 for vu duo includes its own system swapfile

If so, should I remove swap file , before upgrade ?

It's 100% original

Quote from Ev0

Do you have a backup saved on the hdd ?

Yes, I have done backup before flashing new image.This backup is Personal one

Quote from kaon

You most update bootloader first

This was done before . You cannot upgrade to BH 2.0.4 prior to install this file what you mentioned.
But I made experiment even installing again bootloader - no joy

Of course I know how folder vuplus looks like. I downloaded it from this site, there are 3 files with extension of his 75.6 MB.
No USB stick were connected in the box.
After an unsuccessful upgrade of BH 2.1.4 box is requested to re-insert BH 2.0.4 which was passed without a problem and box after starting immediately began to load the BH 2.0.4.
Has never been needed before disconnect hdd, so I ask for an explanation how to be done.
I'll do with the format tool that you asked me and I'll try one more time.
Thanks for your help and assistance.
