October 4, 20224 yr 19 minutes ago, Flyinghigh said: Exactly. It was not from the box, saying it was not updated. He went to a site that said it was not updated. He asked and it was fixed. Yes. But he knew it was not up-to-date by seeing it somewhere else besides his box. Actually he came to this site and said he didn't have an update
October 4, 20224 yr Correct. He read it was not right. Surely he didn't check for a update and then say it is not up to date when it says it is.

The way we do updates is we send them to boxes based on the Firmware Version # they're currently running Since X5s running 20220624 cannot properly take OTAs, we leave those out when sending updates. That is why, when you check for updates on the X5 and you're running 20220624 It says No Update Available or Up to Date. I believe you also have an Email Ticket with us through cs@buzztv.com And we offered a few solutions to you for your issue. I'm not sure why you're continuing with this on our Forums
October 4, 20224 yr Buzz, the point was to let others know boxes with this firmware will never update if you don't know to go to a site discussing this stuff. No one came here and said my box says it is updated, but I know it is not. They wouldn't know that unless they had already seen this issue on a previous site or stumbled upon it here. The normal user will never know the difference. Thanks for stepping in, Buzz. Yes, I do have a ticket and a resolution has been sent. Tracking number shows it to be here Thursday. I will apply the fix and post back after the installation.
October 4, 20224 yr stumble upon it? the link to this site is on the buzztv site along with other social media options anyone who has used a search engine such as google can easily find it you're implying users are stupid
October 5, 20224 yr Man, you just won't shut up. I honestly don't know why Buzz is allowing the type of comments you make. Yes, anyone can find it. Not until they know it is not updated. The screen says it is. No, users are not stupid. We can find the solution online ONCE we know not to believe what the screen tells us. You want to keep talking, how bout' you address that? How would I know not to believe the screen?
October 5, 20224 yr Users are NOT stupid, but you seem to be very stubborn. You do not seem to understand, it CANNOT be addressed. It is a BUG which creeped in, and it nothing can be done. It is NOT an unwillingness to do anything. It's an isolated incident, and sh!t happens. If a user is having issues with their box, they will go online, and eventually stumble across this site and get help.

October 5, 20224 yr Author This thread is going off topic I ask everyone to please refrain from going back and forth on the current issue being discussed Otherwise I will need to close this thread. The issue has been handled over Email, with a solution.

October 6, 20224 yr Yes. I unplugged everything from the x5. I inserted the card(32gb). Then I plugged in the HDMI cable. I pressed the reset button and plugged it in. I held the button for about 20 secs. Had the red light since then.

October 6, 20224 yr not sure if you watched this most of the beginning doesn't matter since card already has the files https://mega.nz/file/DwhmlYaa#MVlgPbFbYfWJgStn2JeH-VCDxba7foYmJxgEqwrzDxw

October 6, 20224 yr I have tried to reset my device a dozen times. Each time I followed the process below. Unplug everything from the x5, insert sd card, plug in the HDMI cable. Press the reset button. While holding down the reset button, I plug it in. Still holding the reset button for 20sec. I leave it sit for a min. of 10 mins. each time. Max time has been 30 mins. I still have a red light. Ideas?

If its permanently on red light The box is bricked now basically The SD card we shipped you won't even fix it now. I suggest you just email us back on the ticket we had with you, and you will now need to ship it to us to get fixed.
October 9, 20224 yr My X5 will not update. Tried numerous times. It will download and then tell me to reboot. After rebooting nothing happens it locks up. I have to unplug and plug the box in about five times so that I can use it and then it tells me to update. While watching shows a notice will pop up telling me to update this is really frustrating. This has been going on since I bought the box about 4 months ago. V20220628 it's my current firmware version
