Hi,

I just received my HiMedia Q5II box. When I turn it on, all i see the the words "HiMedia". I'm unable to load the menu.

So I tried updating the firmware via the reset button. I downloaded the firmware from: http://dl.himedia-tech.cn/3718/EN/1023/upd...lcore_Q5_en.zip. I followed the instructions on how to flash the device, the android robot shows up but is quickly replaced with a red box on the android robot (I guess showing failure in flashing). Any ideas on how to fix this? Perhaps I have the wrong image, can somebody pm me an image of the firmware?

Thanks in advance!

If it helps:
I'm in the US region.
I can also PM you my S/N, MAC addr.

Hi Nicety,

I tried renaming the the file without the _en (update_dualcore_Q5.zip), but it still doesn't work. Can you PM me a link for the Chinese version of the firmware?

Thanks!

Just want to thank Nicety for all his help! He PM'ed me a link to the firmware and it works. -- Kind of weird I got a red triangle a few times when I flashed it, but then it magically booted up. I'm not sure if I want to try my luck flashing anymore...

Some questions on the himedia q5 ii emmc

1) What is the latest firmware? What I currently have is: HMD-1.0.4 2013-12-06 194908
2) YouTube seems to be broken. I get audio, but just a black screen (I think the video is there, but it's just shifted all to the left, not sure). Am I the only one seeing this issue?
3) I think I have the China firmware installed as hitv is all in Chinese (the rest of the apps are in English however). Is there a way to change hitv to be in English without re-flashing the OS?

Thanks!
