    Info Skybox Recovery Files, every toolkit should have this!

    www.sboxupdates.com/downloads/skyboxrecovery.zip


    This file above is my recovery files which I use to fix the infamous LOAD errors on skyboxes and also the reset loop too, some copy boxes do not accept any firmware on a usb stick either but if you use the recovery method you can write ANY firmware directly onto the box .

    please note that there are3 NO illegal files in this package, the package ONLY contains firmware to view FREESAT TV, the latest channel updates which are also legal and the actual recovery software.

    to use these you will need an rs232 to usb lead which you can buy from any pc shop or ebay is best for pennies. once you have that you will be able to recover any skybox, just follow the instructions that I have put in the zip file. thanks.

    can someone make this a sticky please. det

    Never thought I'd need this, so never bought a modem cable like this. My box stuck on load cycle after being turned off for 4-5 days.

    I presume the wiring on these is different to a standard VGA connector?

    Had to order a cable on Ebay now, but doesn't help me for the United match later on!

    Presume no known ways to flash via USB on the box?

    Bit of long shot!, but are you using the right ac adapter? As that can affect them starting up if its the wrong voltage.
