  • HowTo fix your box when your Prismcube is in a reboot loop.


    First you need to see where your addon or skin was installed that caused the problem.


    1} If it was installed in box memory


    1.1} First you need to find the folder with addons, plugins, skins. It is in "/usr/share/xbmc/addons/*.* "


    1.1.1} In this folder you will see your files, now please find the addon or skin that created the problem [metadata.tvdb.com ] and skin [ skin.droid ]


    1.1.2} Now delete this file and reboot your box (Power off)
    1.1.3} If you deleted the correct files, your box will now boot because xbmc creates a new list of available addons and skins.


    2} If was installed on hdd


    2.1} Now this is a bigger problem because if the skin or addon was installed on the hdd you have no access to the folder because it is hidden


    2.1.1 } The only way to prevent this is to enable the see hidden folders in the xbmc menu option


    once this option is enabled, a normal ftp program will see the folders.
    2.1.2} But if this option is disable you must use Filezilla . You can download from
    2.2.1} Now you need to setup this program, setup IP your box; user [ root ], password [ leave empty ] and port [21] . You must enable "Force showing hidden files "


    2.2.2} Next go to "/mnt/hdd0/program/.xbmc/addons" because in this folder you will find the skin that is causing the problems


    2.2.3} When you find the skin [ in this example problem skin is called neon] or addon that caused the problem and delete it


    2.2.4} Now reboot box (Power Off) if after rebooting you still see the old skin name on your menu change to standard Confluence skin


    3} Now you are better off installing your image again from scratch, as this will give you a fresh image and everything will work as normal again.


    All this changes are you doing on your own risk.
    Please first backup your file and made careful changes in files.
