I had this problem where the stb would boot and stop at "Start" or "On"
and was locked up.
After googling the problem all day I see there are lots of people who had this error but never fixed it.
I was told it needed to be re-flashed with a new bootloader and firmware.
After flashing it what felt like 10000 times it still didnt work
I opened it up had a last look before it went into the dustbin and saw a bulging capacitor on the PSU board.
A 10v 1000u cap had popped(bulging), I found a 10v2200u laying around soldered it and bingo its working fine again.
Now I have to remember how to get all my satellites back :(
