Assuming BH image:

1. Download the BH image archive
2. Unpack the "vuplus" folder to a FAT32 formatted USB stick (some sticks doesn't work)
3. Turn off the box
4. Plug in the USB stick (front port)
5. Turn on the box
6. It will say press power button to update, press the touch sensitive button on the box. (On the display of the box)
7. Wait..
8. When it says rebooting in 10 seconds, remove the USB stick.
9. Enjoy BH image!

For Solo2: if you have an internal HDD attached, delete before flashing folders /vuplus/ and /backup/ from HDD (if they exists). They cause installation problems (system will freeze on reboot) and only way to resolve it is disconnect HDD or delete folders from HDD by FTP.

If you all do as above
and not go.
Try another USB.


You can try the whole procedure again.
Do not forget you have to re-format a USB FAT32.
check that all the folders and files unpacked from ZIP
It should not be plugged anything into other USB ports.

thank you for your reply.
I have not gone yet the updates, so I use a 128 MB USB stick ?, and no worries ? :cry:

The minimum stick size for image flashing depends on image, BH 2.0.2 has about 112 MB.
You can use your 4 GB without worries (at 99%, there are still some non compatible sticks).
Important is to format it in FAT32 and to follow instructions for HowTo in this thread.
