    Since the 2.4 firmware installation my Zidoo X20 can not get past booting into MEDIACENTER File Manager and holds/freezes at the Zidoo TV screen Logo & HELLO display message. Bluetooth remote is also not funtioning.

    Hi Hendrik
    I could use my Z9S for one day, when I have received it, next day I had the same boot-loop. The original FW was 2.1.3, I tried 2.1.4, but nothing happened, the same boot-loop is there. Did you manage to fix it? Please help me!

    Nope.
    3 to 4 time a resets with the AC Powerbutton at the rear. will do the job. Or don't power-down your player.

    You mean reset by pushing the reset button with a needle and switch on the player, but no new FW on a pendrive, right?

    I received an answer from Simon/Futeko and he recommended:

    Please try the emergency flash procedure followed by an install of latest beta 2.2.56.

    Emergency flash: https://www.zidoo.tv/Support/support_guide/guide_target/ua1h3YuLrJzeq7k9e[ld]3ulg==.html
    2.2.56: http://forum.zidoo.tv/index.php?thr...-56-beta-version-for-zidoo-z9s-release.48112/

    I asked then if there is no danger of bricking and he answered:

    No danger of bricking except if you cut power during the flash or remove the USB stick during the flash.

    The emergency flash procedure is a full system reflash, it overwrites completely whatever firmware is on the box.

    Finally I managed to install the v1.7.8 image (and the v2.2.56, but the USB 3.0 did not work at all therefore I used a simple 2.0 pendrive in the 2.0 port and it worked fine.
