Amiko mini HD combo ''MENU'' password
- Thread starter snowglobe
- Start date
0000 does not work on my box, I have tried for hours to get past it. Anybody know how to change or bypass this password?
I was going to flash new firmware but the box does not have a serial port and I can't use USB as I don't know the password to get into the menu. Thanks.

how many digits is the password, if its 4 its usually "0000" if its 8 its put in by box manufacturer and like bees said its not usually to enter menu its usually when you want to go into net client config which is in the menu, gone through this myself, let me know how many digits

hi, i have just got a amiko SHD 8140 box and wen i go into the net config/net client config to add a new line to it, its asking for an 8 digit password by anychance do u knw wat this mite be or how to get around it??
Hi Darren, some people say if you flash box back to factory default it removes password protection, it did'nt for me so I was put onto a company called "norfolksr" on fleabay, for about £12 they will remove the password and put in your line if you give them details, very good service, worked for me, cheers

thanks tommytank will try them
Ok here is how i did it on another amiko , so i presume its the same method ,
reset your box to " Default Value "
Now load your server line ( gift ) with u.s.b with a hsdata.cfg file ( you could try to enter your line manually at this stage also , although your line will work , it might not remove the password lock ,
that loading your line with the " hsdata.cfg file method should remove the 8 digit password lock ...
the first part of the hsdata.cfg file should look like this below .
cfg~0~0~00000000
This will remove password from your box , when the hsdata.cfg file is loaded onto your box .
Finally , load your new firmware + channel list select " all bootloader + channel list " after you have installed your line ..
Now you should be good to go .
hope this helps ...

Hi m8 when you say reset to 'default value' that is done when you add cfg~0~0~0000000 along with you line details to the usb? Or is there something that needs to be done before that?

Hey guys, seen a few of you have been in a prediciment of needing a password,
If you flash your receiver using the RS232 recovery method, this will help you restore your receiver to default meaning no passwords installed!
Here is a guide I created for a mini combo but most of the Amiko closed sources are similar so this should help you all round :)
