    I went to upgrade to the latest official yojia firmware and it crashed. I now get the screen on power up that tells you to recover. I tried with 2 different usb sticks and they don't work. Does anyone know how to recover this box with a serial setup?

    Keep trying my friend!!

    Quick fix for booting up problems on an OpenBox X5


    If your OpenBox X5 fails to bootup and only displays ON, you can try the following to see if it will fix the problem.

    The USB Stick can be formatted in either FAT32 or NTFS it makes no difference.

    1 .. Make sure you use a clean USB Stick [with no files or folders on it]

    2 .. Create a new folder on the USB Stick and name the folder x5 [you can name the folder anything you wish]

    3 .. Now place a copy of KD_P9000E_HD.bin in the x5 folder
    [You do not even need a folder for this to work, you can just transfer the files to the USB Stick, just make sure there are no other files on the USB Stick]

    4 .. Make sure the receiver is Powered OFF

    5 .. insert the USB Stick into the front USB port on the receiver

    6 .. Now you can turn the receivers Power ON

    7 .. Quickly press any button on the front panel [I find it easier to press the Power button]
    keep pressing the button until you see LOAd shown on the front panel, then you can release the button.

    8 .. This should then fix basic problems regarding booting up, as the OpenBox X5 will be booted from the USB.

    9 .. Once the OpenBox X5 has booted up correctly, but you still find the problem persists, then you should perform the following:
    Menu -> System Setup click S/W Upgrade click Upgrade By Network


    ================================================== =============================


    If the above fails to fix the problem, do the following:

    1 .. Make sure you use a clean USB Stick [with no files or folders on it] formatted in FAT32 Only

    2 .. Create a new folder on the USB Stick and name the folder recovery

    3 .. Now place a copy of KD_P9000E_HD.bin in the recovery folder

    4 .. Make sure the receiver is Powered OFF

    5 .. insert the USB Stick into the front USB port on the receiver

    6 .. Now you can turn the receivers Power ON

    7 .. Quickly press the centre button on the front panel [Arrow-HERE in the image below]
    keep pressing the button until you see LOAd shown on the front panel, then you can release the button.

    [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

    8 .. The installation should then start immediately [and the progress will be displayed on the front panel screen]

    9 .. Once the installation of the firmware has completed, the receiver will then auto reboot itself.

    And that's it, you may now remove the USB Stick.

    OK, got it. I opened my new 50 in 1 usb card reader that I got at Kmart for 1$ and put my high quality 4gb CF card in it and that worked! Yay!
