You must put on a new bootloader and then put a new image(open pli et 5x00) in the et 5000, you must use an usb stick.
You must switch off the receiver, the usb stick with the new bootloader at the front side the receiver turn on and the bootloader is in the box, then switch the box off, the new image(et5x00) on the usb stick, the stick at the frontside of the box, then switch the box on and hold a few seconds the button above the ok button and then the image are loading into the box.
When you are ready the image are starting and you can install.the image.

Succes!!!!

Have the same problem but on a et4000, just red and green. Doesn't respond on the front-usb port. Seems like it could be flashad by the usb on the back. But when reboot, just red and green.

I have the same issue on et-5000.

I have tried the latest bootloader and it flashes ok. but when I try flash an image it gets a problem.

I connected it up to serial and I think it has a problem erasing the flash

I had the same problem. I have not sent the box to germany. by the information it was a security board problem. They have sent me a new security board, i think was 21 euros, the box was over 2 year warranty. I have installed myself. Very easy to install. Mr Hwang as very helpful.
