Today I have flashed a max v and a pvr with the new firmware and they are both working perfect. My old red box will not take the firmware! Takes about 15 mins to get to the end and then just says fails! Anyone know a way around this? The box has been flashed at least 4 times before with no issues but now will not take any firmware.

you are using the red fix firmware?if so have you waited a couple of moments after flashing(sometimes says downloading failed)try the bad flash method unplug the box then press download then plug the box back in it may takle s few go's.
@bigj77 as the saying go's if you've nothing to say then say nothing.

I last flashed it in April when it all went off like now. I am using the re correct firmware I will try pressing down on the box now.

Does nothing. I have flashed every other type of box today with the same cable. I even screwed it in, it starts to send te stuff but takes about 30 mins and fails.

I think that is highly unlikely but if anyone has a flash for a red box that they have used then upload it it to somewhere like mediafire or sendspace and put the link here and I will try that.
I ask again has anyone actually used the max red firmware and can tell me that it works?

I'm not dissing you mate I'm just saying that I have tried what you said. You still have not answered if you have used the red software? If you have a working one please send it over.

i havn't seen any other posts with your problem,so alls im trying to do is root out the cause trying every option,it may sound stupid but sometimes its the simplest thing that causes these problems,i have no need to use any of the latest updates as there are no problems in my neck of the woods.try and pm Hiteck he may be able to help,i'm sure he's flashed all types the last few day's.

What I don't get is that I load the flash loader. In the top left it says ufl red v2.0 modded by darx. On the logo it says unified flash loader v1.0 and when I press download it sas version 2.10 detected lol

If you wanna ask him to read the thread by all means but I ain't pm'ing people I don't know. I am a mod on another forum and it is annoying as! lol
I have no other red boxes to try it on and no one here is commenting that they have used the red software so I can't really determine if it is the box or the software. I have tried loading a previous version onto the box and that fails even though I have put it on before so that doesn't fill me with confidence. Still though the box works fine so it just doesn't make sense. Is there anyway that the firmware on it is stopping the update, can I completely wipe it of info? I have done a factory reset and cleared the channel data.
