Here is a excellent manual to recover an Azbox stucked in booting, most of the time caused after trying to upgrade your Azbox to Enigma 2.
This works I repaired my azboxhd by following the manual.
All the files you need to repair all azboxes but you need to buy some hardware cost around 20 to 30euros, where to buy and how to install are discribed in the manual, also all the programs to use are in the rar file


Good Luck

what about nokia ca-42:confused:

Hi,

The procedure to follow is exactly the same, if you can make work you CA-42 cable to display the boot process and press CTRL-C while Yamon boot, all the rest is the same.

I only explain with USB since most modern PC no longer have a serial port.

i used the usb 2.0 ttl uart serial converter and made my wires for it,if you go this way
remember that the send wire from the usb goes to the recive pin of the reciver and
the recive wire from the usb goes to the send pin on the reciver and ground goes to
ground / only 3 wires used from the usb to the reciver / and i used a rj 45 crossover
cable.
you must be fast with the key board to stop the process if it dont stop you will need to start over and be ready to stop it fast.

Hi
I also use the usb 2.0 TTL but if i cross the rx and tx i get nothing however if i leave tx-tx and rx-rx i can get into yamon. Once in yamon all the commands go through fine and pumpkin loads vmlinux.bin but when i type the go command i get different results and errors, i have actually got to the login prompt twice but the cursor then freezes. Any help would be great

I have just bought a zxbox elite from **** with the fault booting
Im aware ill probably have to do the usb to ttl but i thought ill give the patch.bin on a usb a try

what worries me is i get nothing on the screen
the azbox says powering on then booting but my screen says no hdmi input, so the box is not outputting anything
my usb stick doesnt light up to say its being accessed either?

Is this all normal or am i looking at a box that is unrecoverable even via the usb to ttl methord?

thanks

to test and work on. the usb wont power up if the azbox is in booting but if you could find a way to power up the usb then
it mite load but i have not tested that at this time.

Brilliant tutorial. Worked a treat i now have Update:USB on the display of my Premium box instead of BOOTING. I used a usb to ttl converter that i bought from your favourite auction site for £5. I had the tx and rx crossed at first but didnt work i had to put the rx pin of azbox to rx pin of ttl converter and the same for tx.

Cant thank you enough, cheers.

Boy, is this box full of surprises or what?!?

My Az Box was stuck on wizard zamba and not booting up.Found official firmware on a italian az box forum .File was in rapidshare.Downloaded it and booted up usb stick.Had option to format which I did first.I then put usb stick back in and used update option.Az box then updated and started working normally.
If you dont format nothing happens.Use at own risk.

i was getting the ffffffff error with windows 7, i kept trying and by chance it worked all of a sudden, don`t know whether it was a windows 7 problem or not, do you use windows 7?, and make sure all firewalls are off.

the yamon in the flash mem is damaged which means you cannot use any of the files to repair it if tou are a electronic wizard then ok you need to jtag the chip if not it looks like you need to send the box back to where you bought it from first you must go to this site and make out a work ticket they are very helpfull

Hi,

For people that follow this recovery procedure, the provided kernel is an old one.
Since they change the boot parameter in Yamon when you are in Yamon, you need to type this command to restore "old kernel" boot parameter otherwhise your Azbox will not boot the old kernel.



setxenv y.start "xrpc 0xac080090; load zbf 0xb3000000; go"


Remark: to boot kernel 3.4.4 and 3.5.5 the value is:



setxenv y.start "dump romfs 0xac080000;load zbf 0xac080090; go"


Hope this help,

Pr2
P.S.: May I suggest to moderator to include this in the first post.

Please try again with another cable or adapter, if it is possible with Nokia cable, since you have zboot OK. "Checking zboot file signature at 0x13000000 .. OK " Could be conexion problem.

If not you can follow the spanish instruccion of this tutorial.: http://openspa.info/threads/tutorial-recuperar-deco-en-booting-via-jtag.12602/

arthurbf, you have to use JTAG.

Hi, can someone help me on this?

I have a AZbox premium HD that is stuck in booting. I've connected a serial to the Yamon interface and used 115200 bits/sek but the outcome from Putty is not readable (see image)

55937

I've also tried all the other bits/sec setting but none is readable. Anyone familiar with this?

This is clearly explained in the tutorial, wrong speed/parity settings in your PC for your cable adaptor... please read the manual, don't think that some step are useless...

My problem was that I used serial cable directly to the AZbox, not TTL. All the settings were correct. Bought MAX232 and build a RS232 to TTL converter and after that it worked.

Hello everybody,

I need some help from you
I have my Azbox stuck in booting... I am following all the steps from the manual and in the last one, the one to load the firmware when I type ./update backup_kernel_344 I always have return "segmentation fault"

I have no more ideas and I can´t find information about it.

Thank you very much

For less than £5 I am making my own JTAG adapter, but if you are not sure what you are doing then probably better to take a chance on a flea bay site repair seller.

Hi,

Azbox Premium Plus

I've got the 'stuck in booting' problem after trying to downgrade from RSiOpen v3 to v2. I sourced a cable (I'll post details if anyone is interested) downloaded the excellent tutorial and got all the way to the end when the box is supposed to restart, which it does with the following output from YAMON..

********************************* *
* YAMON ROM Monitor
* Revision 02.06-SIGMADESIGNS-01-2.8.0.1
********************************* *
Memory: code: 0x11000000-0x11040000, 0x11200000-0x11204000

Environment variable 'start' exists. After 1 seconds
it will be interpreted as a YAMON command and executed.
Press Ctrl-C (or do BREAK) to bypass this.

Checking zboot signature.. it's not zboot file.

Can anyone shed any light on the above? I get the feeling I'm so near and yet so far...

Thanks for any help.

Hi,

Do you reflash the old kernel?

To boot the old kernel you can type this in Yamon:



setxenv y.start "xrpc 0xac080090; load zbf 0xb3000000; go"


Power off the box and restart it, if you flash the old kernel it will start.

You will then problably need to stop it in Rescue Mode (by pressing the VOL+ front pannel button).

Then you can flash an old firmware.

But what a strange idea to return to OpenRSI 2

pr2 you are a star! Your string of gobbledegook allowed me to get into update mode. I installed an OFW which with hindsight was not a good idea but it allowed me to do an automatic update via the internet which got me into rescue mode and I was away. Bit convoluted but I'm back in business. The reason I wanted to 'downgrade' from RSi v3 to v2 was because of various bugs (green screens, refusing to play some .avi files, TV freezing, lots of gearwheels...) so I did some research on the RSiOpen forum to find that v2 was better for the older Azboxes so I thought I'd give it a go but apparently you are supposed to go via an intermediate stage which I didn't do. I'm still testing, but a video file that previously failed to run ran OK last night, so we'll see. It's complicated in the Azbox world....

Just out of interest, if it's not too complicated, what did your command line do...

Many thanks pr2

PR2 Has not posted on this forum since 20-10-2014, 04:09 PM, and you have made the last 8 posts in this thread without any reply, maybe you should try some where else as it would appear that no one on this forum has the info that you require.
