All kind of (Old) AZbox software on one place

An old website with updated software for our AZbox. We never mentioned the site. We were all day thinking why we haven't and came to the conclusion we've had to change this. Why keep good sites for yourself?

Meet Johnsat AZbox Premium HD Firmware Update Server.

OpenRSi gets where AZBOX is coming from!

Check their new website and you will understand the title of this blog....Build by users .... Inspired by Users!!

It's not a secret we are a big FAN of OpenRSI

If you are visiting them, try their new downloads. Here you can find the latest Firmware with 3.* kernel  (latest).

OpenAZbox.info under DDOS Attack/ Update

There is one thing we hate: internet terror. DDOS attacks are not done!

Quote:

The Open AZBox MOD Forums have sustained a DDOS attack of 1Gbps.
As all of you are aware, we are living in the World populated with some people who dislike our work and progress we make on the Azbox frontline.
Unfortunatelly, things like this happen becuse of those few evil ones.
We are sorry for the issues that might have caused our services being rendered as unavailable.

The Team has worked day and nite to get the Forums back on track.
Many things have been restored, but the latest date of backup was August 5th 2012, so all the posts made after that date till the DDOS attack were lost.
We'd like you to know that it was out priority to have it back as much as we could, but obviously, a certain price had to be paid anyway.

Hoping for your understanding and support in the future,
the Open AZBox MOD Team

Update: Read the first reaction below. Something 2 think about ....

OpenRSi stops

Their original homepage . The page were the fun begun, the pioneers of AZbox development.

The team just moved to their new place, wich stays ;)

We quote:

@ALL this site will stop on 27-9-2012 please for support visit www.openrsi.org and www.opensat4all.com

AZbox-Enigma.EU is back online

We don't know why, maybe it's because Openazbox.info is offline? , but Azbox-Enigma.eu  is back on the net. With a empty database.

OpenAzbox mod

Today, the RTi team again released new versions from their OpenAZbox Mod and AZup.

At first we are really glad to see there is a lot of development at this moment for our AZbox , old and new. So don't see this as critism!

In our view the stage of releases is not for the great public. A lot of sitenotes and a lot of new ways for flashing ( AZup ) comes with lot of opportunities for ( dangerous ) errors. Not everybody knows how to handle these errors.

For news about the OpenAZbox development, just read their forum. For everybody who wants to test: be carefull and be sure that you know what you're doing. Also be sure that you know how to handle errors like "stuck on booting".

When everything is stable and the flash programs (AZup) are more stable ( for some reasons they released 3 different versions of AZup in 10 days)  we will continu with publishing about OpenAZbox.At this moment we think it will be too much confusing ( risk of using wrong AZup for wrong firmware ) for some people.

Recover your box if you have only "BOOTING" in VFD display.

Recover your box ( Premium, Ultra, Elite )  if you have only "BOOTING" in VFD display.

If your Azbox is no longer responding and it is stucked with Booting... in the front display, it is normally
possible to recover it but you will need to purchase an adapter cable, USB (RS232) to TTL.
Thanks to  andressis2k and  VVK  to Herbie and to Hectore and to all the other people that contribute to
this solution.

See below for the instructions in English, Francais, German and Dutch. Thanks Myazbox.de for hosting!

WARNING

Warning: If you like OpenRSi don't flash OpenAZbox. A child game made it impossible to go from Openazbox 2 OpenRSI and it may kill your receiver.

People who are responsible for this child game : Shame on you! Don't play with consumers stuff!
