Hello everybody. The Mickyhop servers have been under attack by a hacker and for this reason some users may not be able to connect to the Channel Store. This will effect only some of the TVOnline boxes. For this reason these boxes need to access our backup store (exact same thing) but it will require a firmware update. You cannot update the files through the platform but rather need to manually install it. Before you do all this, if you are experiencing this issue or a similar issue I highly advice a simple factory reset. Most of the time it will fix your issue. This fix is only for users on the TVOnline box who cannot access the channel store (it will change the address it needs to connect to for the listings).

1) To do this find an empty USB key and install the file I have attached called "update" on to it.
Notes: Do not unzip it, keep it as a zip file. Also make sure it is in the main directory of the USB (do not put it into another folder). Just in case, don't keep other files in there that you think might effect the installation.

2) Perform a factory reset and while in the first time setup menu plug in the USB (this is where the four main setting icons are). It should prompt you to do a firmware update in which you will say yes.

3) After this is done, your box will reboot again. After this you should have access to the channel store. If it still does not work you have a different issue with your box. Please do not try this for non TVOnline boxes. I advise you start a thread or open a support ticket with our website to get that issue fixed.

Hopefully I saved many of you a lot of headaches and time. Have a good day everyone!

EDIT: For users who still experience this problem please visit the AVOV Blog. There is also a fix for the Vixo1. The fix will be found under the corresponding system post (so if you have a TVOnline please click the TVOnline blog post)

Thank you for the update, but this is not working for me. The unit does not prompt me to do the firmware update.

make sure your stick is fat32 then
Notes: Do not unzip it, keep it as a zip file. Also make sure it is in the main directory of the USB (do not put it into another folder). Just in case, don't keep other files in there that you think might effect the installation.

I cannot access the store and when i try to install the package it says not a valid update package. The zip file was not unzipped and i did a format on the usb stick and the file is saved to the root directory. I will do a complete format and not a quick format on the stick and see if that changes the outcome. Thank u

Ok. Better I have my coffee first before i post again. Thanks for the hint asft. I was using the wrong file. I had the avov1 so was using the wrong file. I had to manually update with the stick before I can get to the store. By the way, is there any more stability between the tvonline version and the avov1. I have not used the box much but i noticed the audio was out of sync with the picture this morning. Maybe the firmware update fixes it. thanks

I received my TVONLINE Receiver in May and never seen anything as to a Channel Store, is this a link to MickeyHop? My Receiver has been updated June 16th with the newer look/version but still I don't see a Channel Store. Is the Channel Store an APP? I'm fairly new to all this Android stuff so any help would be appreciated.

Channel Store is a receiver main menu option.
You'd need to exit outta the IPTV NFPS server menus and into avov's main menu to see those Channel Store options.

It's not an APP. It's actually where all avov's APPs are found thou.
Once you choose an APP and Install it, then it appears in the My Channels menu option.

So the Channel Store is the Main Menu. This is where I choose the APPs from the "Market", correct?
So there is no link to MickeyHops.org to download new APPs?

the APPs found in the Channel Store are being store on avov's server. Once you install the APP then it's on your avov receiver, it's not on your receiver till you install it from the Channel Store (sometimes called the Mickey Market)
. If you un-install an APP any time later, it still can be re-installed from the Channel Store.

Mickeyhop is not where the APPs are found, it is a platform, so to speak.
APPs are on avov server and ar4e available for you to install.
What ever is there is the limit.

Okay, I think I have everything. I was just confused by the original post. Thought I was missing something due to the date I purchased my Receiver (May) and when the original post was dated, thought I was missing something.

I'm good, thanks for the replies.

Hi there,
Hoping you can help me out, I installed the zip file you provided however I'm not being prompted to do a firmware update. I have a 16gb USB key, is that not good enough?
