I have exactly the same problem. Red LED is on but that's it. I made a uboot DS card but nothing happens, red led constantly lit.

Any help would be appreciated!

this is your way back worked for me

Thanks, I had already fixed the box.

Originally the PC wouldn't detect the box unless I shorted two pins on the TSOP (the nand chip)

I posted what I had to do here:

hopefully others can benefit from it.

I have the same problem with my MXQ i have tried to make a SD card boot , but the firmware I have is password protected and the password I have does NOT WORK ??

 

[newmguy]

i tried to post the password but this forum does not allow the url, and blocks it out.
I think your password might be geek
buying

then dot com.

that was the password for the only file I had that was password protected,

try it.

This password worked .
I now have a blue light . I can start the box but I only get the pic below and I can go no futher , the box does not update and it is only a matter of time before it hangs again and I swithch it off to try yet another reset

 

[newmguy]

did you try wipe data factory reset?
if you are in the recovery mode you can load a file from the SD card "apply update from EXT".

MAKE SURE its the right file for your box!

you should have the correct file (recovery.img) unzipped to the root of the SD card. Do not put files in a subfolder.
