I followed the instructions

It seems that it did the OS downgrade but my remote does not work.
The green light flashes when I click but nothing happens on the screen.

I successfully paired the remote by pressing "menu" + "-" and saw the pairing icon on the screen but no navigation is possible.

Thoughts on how to fix?

Update - if I go into the Apple TV Recovery screen then the remote works so I guess it is not a problem with ATV 2.2 software but the USB installation software

I don't know what is causing that, you should try this:

- Factory Restore
- Use USB Patchstick
- Run the script

If I do the factory restore then it takes me down to v1.0.
Will this update process work to upgrade a v1.0 to v2.2
or does this script just downgrade from v2.3 to v2.2?

to pair your remote should be "menu" + "|<<" on ATV 2.2

It will update any version to v2.2 or v2.1

Update:

1. I run the command sw_vers and I get back that I have build version 8n5722 (v2.3)
2. I do factory reset to v1.0 and everything works as it should
3. I run the patchstick from here http://code.google.com/p/atvusb-creator/
4. I use Putty and the command sw_vers and I get back 8n5107 (version 1.0)
5. I run the update here - http://wiki.awkwardtv.org/wiki/OSupdate and I now have v2.2 running
6. I run the patchstick from here http://code.google.com/p/atvusb-creator/ (to hack ATV v2.2)
7. Now I have hacked v2.2
8. I do the XBMC update 8.1 and Boxee alpha 0.9.4166 update - everything seems to work
9. I stop auto-updates

Now it works properly

I have tried to run both the 2.1 and 2.2 script and I receive this error every time:

Code:

mkdir: /User/frontrow: No such file or directory
: No such file or directory
: No such file or directory/Users/frontrow/OStemp/
./osupdate.sh: line 58: syntax error: unexpected end of file

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

I do have binutils installed.

it should be "/Users/frontrow"

thanks but... I edited the script to replace all instances of "User" with "Users", correct? Then uploaded and did:

chmod 755 osupdate.sh
and
sudo chown root:wheel osupdate.sh

and get the result:

-bash-2.05b$ sudo sh ./osupdate.sh
: File exists/frontrow/OStemp
: No such file or directory*
: No such file or directory/Users/frontrow/OStemp/
./osupdate.sh: line 58: syntax error: unexpected end of file

Next, doing an ls showed a directory called OStemp? (with the ? in the name). I deleted that directory and ran the script again. This time I get:

-bash-2.05b$ sudo sh ./osupdate.sh
Password:
: No such file or directory*
: No such file or directory/Users/frontrow/OStemp/
./osupdate.sh: line 58: syntax error: unexpected end of file

Doing an ls again shows that OStemp? directory is back.

I did the same exact thing last night. Same result.

Same issue. I tried editing the script, but still a 58 error

Same issue. I tried editing the script, but still a 58 error

well, I would say the script is messed up and dafranca needs to fix it. I'm busy elsewhere and don't have time to fix this right now.

Hi.
I just want to share my experience.
Like most here ended up with error 58 and non existing file message.
But then I opened sh file and step by step done all commands in terminal.
And result was nice movement from 2.3 to 2.2

Hope it helps others.
