View Full Version : v11 upgrade and reboot loop

So I got the v11 upgrade about two nights ago. I know this because my s3 has been in a reboot loop ever since. Except, of course, when it gets tired of rebooting and goes into a green screen crash (you know, the one with the fire-alarm sound that wakes up the family).

Anyway, has anyone else had this problem? If I remove the cablecard, I can watch sd tv all I want, but as soon as I insert the card - crashville. I had charter replace the card, so that's not it.

I noticed the P3 on the version number that suggests a beta. That's fine, but I never signed up for beta and don't know where to get beta support.

I tried all the kickstart codes, no love.

I appreciate any opinions or feedback.

Do you have an external hard drive?

What kind of CableCard do you have (make and model)?

Motorola M-Card. Says "MediaCipher" on it, so I'm guessing that is the model.

My S3 was going through the same loop cycle this morning. I disconnected and re-connected the power but still experienced the looping. Then I disconnected the power for a full hour. Upon re-connecting the power the S3 powered on normally. I don't know if that is the ultimate solution but it worked for the time being.
