USB offline update problem
After a long time I need to perform a USB offline update, but I have a problem with the functionality. After inserting USB Flash, holding down the standby button, turning on the box and starting the recovery screen, I cannot select the function 4.Recovery From USB - the remote control does not work at this time. I found that bootargs.bin prevents the remote control from working. If I remove this file from USB Flash, the remote control works and I can choose 4.Recovery From USB.
Previously (v6.2 February 2019) the downloaded zip archive contained only:
directory octagon
usb_update.bin
Now the downloaded zip archive contains more files:
directory octagon
usb_update.bin
fastboot.bin
bootargs.bin
apploader.bin
If I remove the bootargs.bin file and continue installing the image, is there any problem? Are these files (fastboot.bin, bootargs.bin, apploader.bin) important for offline recovery? Can an offline update work without these files?

ThemenstarterNetwork installation (online flash) works without any problems.
I need to install OpenEight image and I can only do it via USB offline update, but the bootargs.bin file prevents the remote control from working in the offline boot menu, making the whole process inoperable. You can try it.

ThemenstarterI don't know what is different on my box, but all images that contain the bootargs.bin file mentioned above cannot be installed by me using the USB offline update.
I also tried another USB flash drive, re-formatted to FAT32 and copied the contents of the zip archive of each image again, but the result is still the same - the remote control does not work in the bootmenu update.
I have repeatedly tried 2 installations:
1) USB offline installation of older OpenATV image (February 2019) - openatv-6.2-sf8008-20190217_mmc.zip, which contains:
directory octagon
usb_update.bin file
This installation was successful without any problems. The remote control in the bootmenu update screen works fine.
2) USB offline installation of the latest OpenATV image - openatv-6.3-sf8008-20191017_mmc.zip, which includes:
directory octagon
file usb_update.bin
file fastboot.bin
file bootargs.bin (file for some reason obstructing remote control function)
file apploader.bin
This installation cannot be started because the remote control does not work in the update bootmenu screen and the 4.Recovery From USB function cannot be selected.
I can't explain it, but if all other users work USB offline installation of new images okay, then it shows some different update bootmenu behavior in my box - the older image works and the new one doesn't work. What can be the cause?

ThemenstarterThere is only a trick to work around and it works 100%:
- first mount the usb flash drive with the files for Hitool recovery (see the picture in the attachment) and follow the same procedure as usb offline recovery
- then select Recovery from USB using the remote control
- then replace the usb flash drive with another one containing the SF8008 image files and confirm with OK on the remote control
