Amiko Mini Combo won't boot

Yes..i have used the files u have uploded...the loader program and the firmware.. i even have download from amiko site and have tried to but whitout sucssess

Have you checked the serial port
if its usb to serial then maybe the one you have is not working or talking to the box

Yes i have..because when i have the jack 3.5 all input the pc doesnt detect the box..i need to puch a litlle the jack and after that the loader program run forward but doesnt pass that what i have already tell u... can u tell me what i have to choice ..upgrade mode or dumping flash?

Upgrade mode
you first load the FW make sure the box is turned off
Hit the NEXT button then plug in the box
If all is correct the flash will start working, can take about 15 to 30 min to finish

Have you not got original software to flash on to usb?

Cannot be done with USB as main bootloader needs to be updated to 1.04 this can only be done with RS232

Im already on home and i have test e tried and nothing results...im not using usb plug..im using rs232 conect in pc and on the box are conected 3.5'jack (amiko mini combo)

- - - Updated - - -

Now i have buy a usb/rs232 adapter..and i have install the software...after that i have used the toolbox for amiko whit the firmware but nothing results ;(
I hve checked in "upgrad all" the msg i have is that " open serial port...
Sync to serial port...
get Client protocol veraion & chunk
Time out when read data!"

And thats it...
i dont know what to do..

OK lets go back to the start
If your happy that the usb to serial cable is correct then follow this

Using Toolbox for Amiko 3612 by Dekolte
Click Loader Amiko
Browse for the Amiko mini FW
Select the correct Serial port
Upgrade type all SW + Bootloader
Mode setting Upgrade
Click next
* NOW TURN ON YOUR AMIKO *

Give it a few seconds it should start flashing.....

hopper is right. I was having the same trouble and had to realise - that the second after you click next then you power on the amiko.
the way I did it was have the power adapter plugged in to the wall and hold the dc jack at the back of the box. then the second after I clicked next on the loader I pushed in the DC jack. worked straight away. Thanks to freck and hopper for their help

I have tried also that way...tomorrow im going buy new cable rs232 and try again in another pc...thank for the help ;)

But in the topic says "Amiko Mini Combo"..... And you put the EMU of Amiko Mini -> HD <- Combo

Does this works for amiko mini combo? is not only for amiko mini HD combo?
