Re: Corrupted xr500

You can try recovering it using tftp or nmrpflash. 

are you on windows? if so, follow this guide

just make sure you enable tftp

and here's a video walk through.

and if that doesn't work, you can try using nmrpflash

Re: Corrupted xr500

Were you having any issues associated with this or just the flashing? Either way TFTP should resolve it.
