How to recover your fried qsat decoder

A wonderful day to you all. Today i will be talking on how to wake or recover your dead or fried qsat decoder in less than a minute. 
Apart from the physical part of a decoder that we can see, every other part of a qsat or any other satellite decoder is centered on a particular software so installation of software that is not compact-able can lead to a dead or fried decoder. 
So in recovering your fried qsat, we need to backup the firmware of a live qsat with the same model as yours... 
  • insert a virus free usb pen-drive / storage device (this can be an external HDD or a USB flash drive)
  • On your remote navigate to Menu==Upgrade==USB/Card Upgrade==press ok twice( this will open your usb device)
  • Now press the favorite button on your remote(the FAV button enables you to download the whole flash file which is about 8.04mb) 
  • You are done, your firmware will be stored as flashfile.bin
  • Change the file name from flashfile.bin to rom.bin before inserting the flash drive to your fried decoder.
  • After doing the above, put off your qsat and insert your usb flash containing only the rom.bin file in it.
  • Then put ON your decoder and the flashing process starts automatically. that all
