I just updated my new SF918 HD and now it won't boot. It shows -0015
and then switches off. What have I done? Please help me.

Sounds like it didn't like the software you loaded, you could try loading the old software, but if may ultimately require the use of a jtag interface to program the chip directly.

Thanks Rolf, but the receiver won't stay on for me to load anything.

Looks like a jtag then, this is applied direct to the circuit board, do a forum search for jtag, you will then have to get hold of a boot loader.

No need to JTAG, try to load via STBlink. The displayed signal means wrong firmare for current bootloader was installed.

To enter into recovery mode, press MENU+UP (or maybe some other combo, don't remember exactly), and holding them, turn the back side power switch on.
