The regular Joe being the guy that just wants to watch TV. If anything they will provide some sort of fix and you can reset box and fix using mini SD card. That is what I envision anyways. I could be wrong...

Why is my 3900 bricked It is working fine.
Everyone is guessing how the fix will be done No one knows right now

Just testing it now
Will be released as a file you can use from a USB Drive and installed through Android Recovery Menu

Nothing on your box gets erased either, unless you erased it yourself already.

Inside the AV Hole on the back of the unit

Thanks for directions, quick fix. To all attempting good luck....if old & feeble like me an extra set of calm, capable hands will help. After several attempts to find(feel) for reset button inside A/V output hole; while simultaneously applying power to get to Android recovery mode the remote volume up/down keys didn't respond to highlight ext USB. After another half-dozen attempts at getting to recovery screen volume keys finally worked. Everything seems OK.

The problem now is the recent version of Buzz TV 2 that was downloaded. All I get now is a black screen upon loading of the program and it crashes back to the main screen. What I am doing now is a factory reset, disconnecting all network connections, and disabling updates in the Buzz Updater.

As others have stated, the box was working fine. Why provide a botched update that just turned these boxes into doorstops?

recovery worked for me and I never lost any of my settings/data
and it's not a recent version if you had any idea on what you loaded
it's what you had before update
