I have V2 ultra and have been using for sometime now. The box is not a clone as I have been running the 251 file since it was released without issue.

Suddenly the box on powering up, the display cycled between BOOT, ON and ARC. Hard reboot made no difference. I reloaded the factory file JynxboxNA_factory_version_v8 using the loader (I selected Allchunk) successfully. The box rebooted to the main menu without issue each time I rebooted. I configured AV settings and can made changes using the various menu options.

Next I loaded the v243 file using the USB at the front. The box rebooted successfully on completion. However when the menu is displayed the screen automatically scrolls through all the main menu option with "no Channel" flashing constantly on the screen. As a result I cannot setup the satellite setting or make any changes. I left the box unplugged over night to eliminate heat issues. On powering up the menu continues to scroll as stated.

Any suggestion will be grateful.

Is it just the menu that is rolling or the entire thing itself?

Hmmmm, that sounds like one of the buttons is stuck on the remote or on the VFD, first thing I would do is remove the batteries
from the remote and try using the buttons on the VFD to get into the menu.

You need to replace the front board or led window for a new one and the problem will go away. It is a voltage problem which sometimes reflects on the lighting of the numbers in front or in the usb port.

Its not any buttons stuck. It happens without any batteries in the remote.

Thanks. This sounds plausible as I tried cleaning as I thought it may have been dirty. Any idea where i can get one?

You can get it from a dealer, some one on ebay.

Do you think one off of a V1 will work, if so send me a PM.

I used a v3 on a v2, worked just fine. Get in touch with this guy and ask him for the front part.

I had the same problem with mine. I just re flashed the V8 file, twice if I remember correctly before the problem went away. Remember to unplug the box and factory reset after each update.

I just wanted to post an update, the op had a bad vfd and the one from an old V1 fixed it.
The op sent me a pm a few days ago to let me know it fixed it, I was thinking the op would post an update but, well you know.
