Vu+ Duo2 Dead with white light on

after a flash the box restarts always with an hang, so is needed a switchoff and after that appears the same white square issue
As a last resort, try to boot the box with a FAT32 formatted pendrive inserted in a rear USB port (don't put an image in the pendrive).
Recently I had this odd experience with a box (not a Vu+ anyway).

hi, after the green screen, I use the power button on the back of the receiver!
when rebooting the receiver does not want to boot, VDF shows 0.5 seconds Vu + DUO2 CFE v2, then double your expectation, television screen shows Black Hole logo. have tried flashing with the latest BlackHole-2.1.1 How can I reset the box, # 2 does not work?
Thanks

Your video is not about a flashing attempt, can you post such a video?

If you have any internal HDD, remove or disconnect it before flashing.

Now it works with the original image :yahoo:

he started himself; after almost 3 hours waiting

may be the problem is in:

the new bootloader
or the various new images
or a default constructor

:thanks:

Hello Eragon,
the decoder does not start and you can not install the original images.
Remains in deep-standby and I can not restart it.
I tried to start it with the remote control or the Start key under the door also keeping in Deep-standby for several hours.
I tried to unplug the power for several hours and then start it but it is always in deep-standby.
I tried to pull tuners, and all the usb hd and restart it but to no avail.
What can I try now?
tnx
Roberto

At this point the only thing left to try is to reflash the bootloader, but it's not likely that this will succeed.
There is probably a hardware fault that needs to be serviced under warranty.

What about the RS232 port? have you tried getting data from it?
The receiver may/may not be sending information from the RS232 port explaining what the problem is or where it is stopping at.

I now have a similar problem. On startup my box stops on BlackHole logo and vcd screen sticks on "double your expectation".
I am now unable to reflash the box since it is totally unresponsive to .. front usb .. vu control centre (cant ftp) or even remote control.
The only alterations i made was to update to latest catseye settings. Box worked fine all day until next morning after being in deep standby overnight.

I would still try another USB stick if you have not already.

I do not think FTP and remote work in this instance/at the time with only BlackHole logo.

Hi Matrix, thanks for the reply.. yeah i did try a couple. However, i was trying to reflash the latest image. I have now flashed with an older image (2.0.9.1) and the box is back to life. Now i need to find and delete the files that caused the crash so that i can update back to 2.1.1 Many Thanks

You can not find anything,
because flash is cleaned with image installation.
