Trouble-Shooting


Q. Software is not able to find the ET-BoX Plus hardware & shows this error:
Seeking ET-BoX Plus hardware ...
Can't find ET-BoX Plus hardware
Operation failed

A 1. Maybe you are not using The New ET-BoX Plus Hardware. Pinout Finding only works with the New ET-BoX Plus.

A 2. If you are using ET-BoX Plus and still you are getting this error, then it can be because of selecting wrong COM port number. Check which com port is the ET-BoX Plus connected and then try again to connect.



Q. ET-BoX Plus is not able to find the pinouts of the phone & shows this error:
Can't define pinout
Operation failed

A 1. 1st reason can be bad connection or maybe not holding the power button during the whole pin-finding process.

A 2. Still if everything has been connected ok, then it is posible that the phone you are tying to connect does not have a MTK CPU inside. In this case please try procedure for Infenion Pin-Find.
