Vestel 17MB130P + VES490QNDS-2D-N11 Firmware Request, USB Update, SPI Dump, Panel Code Issues

User question

17MB130P + VES490QNDS-2D-N11 firmware please

Artificial Intelligence Response

Direct answer to the question

• I can’t directly supply the firmware file for a Vestel 17MB130P mainboard with a VES490QNDS-2D-N11 panel. These images are brand/region/panel-specific and distributed through OEM service channels.
• I can, however, help you identify the exact package you need and guide you through safe recovery/update procedures (USB forced update, panel/PQ update, or SPI reflash), and where technicians typically source verified images.
• If you share the TV’s brand/model, production (product) code, current symptoms, and what’s on the mainboard/panel stickers, I’ll narrow it down and give you step-by-step instructions tailored to your set.

Key points

• Use only firmware that matches: board = 17MB130P (not 17MB130S/130E), panel = VES490QNDS-2D-N11, and brand/region.
• Forced USB update is usually invoked by holding OK on the remote while applying AC power; the standby LED fast-blinks to confirm flashing. (support.databeat.net)
• Service menu access is typically MENU then 4725; from there you can confirm the panel code and, if needed, load panel/PQ data from USB. (docs.signageos.io)
• If the TV won’t enter USB update, the SPI-NOR boot flash may be corrupt; program a verified dump with a programmer, then re-attempt USB recovery. (elektroda.com)

Detailed problem analysis

• Hardware pairing
  • 17MB130P is a Vestel UHD Smart-TV platform using a small SPI-NOR boot flash plus eMMC/NAND for OS and apps. A separate panel table (panel timings, gamma, backlight curves) is enforced by the software build. A panel mismatch yields backlight/no image, wrong colors, or solarized/rotated picture. (elektroda.com)
  • VES490QNDS-2D-N11 is a 49-inch 3840×2160 panel used across multiple Vestel-badged brands; “QNDS” and the “N11” suffix must match the loaded panel profile.
• What you actually need
  • For boot loops/stuck logo/brick: a brand/region/panel-matched forced USB package (commonly named upgrade_loader.pkg or an MB130-specific name). This rewrites bootloader + OS. (elektroda.com)
  • For “picture wrong but TV boots” (inverted/solarized/odd colors): load only the panel/PQ payload from the service menu’s USB Operations; no need to rewrite the whole OS. (docs.signageos.io)
  • For units dead to USB triggers: a full SPI dump for the 25L16/25Qxx device (and sometimes eMMC) written with a programmer (CH341A, TL866-II, RT809H), then a USB refresh to align versions. (elektroda.com)
• Identification you must collect before flashing
  • TV brand and full consumer model number (back label).
  • Product/production code on the label (Vestel code identifies the exact build).
  • Mainboard silkscreen (should read 17MB130P; don’t confuse with 17MB130S).
  • Panel sticker (confirm VES490QNDS-2D-N11).
  • Current symptom: dead, boot loop, no picture/backlight on, picture wrong, etc.
• Why brand/region matters
  • Vestel builds the same board for many brands. USB packages embed brand-specific IR tables, hotel options, and tuner region tables. A wrong region build may disable your local tuner standard (e.g., ATSC vs DVB). Always match brand/region to avoid losing broadcast features. (support.databeat.net)

Current information and trends

• Forced USB entry and the “hold OK while powering on” sequence continue to be the standard documented method on Vestel displays as of 2025–2026. (support.databeat.net)
• Service access remains MENU → 4725 across MB130 families; panel/PQ can be applied via “USB Operations” in that menu. (docs.signageos.io)
• Community practice: technicians increasingly back up SPI-NOR before any attempt and share verified dumps in professional forums when OEM portals are inaccessible. (elektroda.com)

Supporting explanations and details

• Typical file types you will see
  • Forced USB package: upgrade_loader.pkg or MB130-specific image; signed bundle that rewrites boot + core OS. (elektroda.com)
  • Panel/PQ payloads: small files applied from service menu; used to correct image when the OS is fine. (docs.signageos.io)
  • Full SPI dump: exact size of the SPI chip (e.g., 2 MB for 25L1606E on some MB130P variants); written with a programmer. (elektroda.com)
• Forced USB flashing (generic, check your brand’s bulletin)
  • Prepare a ≤16 GB USB 2.0 drive, FAT32. Copy the supplied package to root.
  • With AC off, insert USB. Hold OK on remote (some brands use CH+ / VOL− on the set). Apply AC.
  • Wait for fast LED blink; release key; flashing takes ~3–10 minutes and may reboot twice. Remove USB after first-time-install screen. (support.databeat.net)
• Service menu tasks (TV must boot)
  • Press MENU then enter 4725 to open the service menu; read panel ID and software versions.
  • Use USB Operations to apply the correct panel/PQ payload if the image is wrong. (docs.signageos.io)
• When USB won’t start
  • Suspect corrupted SPI-NOR: clip or desolder the chip and write a known-good dump; verify; reattempt USB recovery so OS/eMMC and NVM are consistent. (elektroda.com)

Ethical and legal aspects

• Firmware packages are copyrighted by Vestel and/or the retail brand. Distribution is controlled; use authorized channels or ensure you have rights to any image you program. (elektroda.com)
• Service operations can expose mains circuitry; observe electrical safety and ESD precautions. If the set contains user data (Wi‑Fi credentials in NVM), respect privacy when servicing. (elektroda.com)

Practical guidelines

• Best practices
  • Photograph all labels (back cover, mainboard, panel).
  • In service menu, note current software version, option bytes, and panel code before changes. (docs.signageos.io)
  • Always back up the SPI content before writing anything (even if corrupt, it may contain brand keys or calibration). (elektroda.com)
• Common pitfalls
  • Mixing 17MB130P and 17MB130S firmware.
  • Using a package for “similar” panels (e.g., QNDL vs QNDS, N11 vs N12) causing backlight/no image. (elektroda.com)
  • Assuming “no image” is always firmware—failed LED backlight or T‑Con can mimic firmware faults.
• Implementation flow (decision tree) 1) TV boots but picture wrong → Panel/PQ update via MENU 4725 → USB Operations. (docs.signageos.io)
  2) Boot loop/logo hang → Forced USB package (correct brand/region/panel). (support.databeat.net)
  3) No USB reaction → Program SPI dump, then repeat step 2. (elektroda.com)

Possible disclaimers or additional notes

• File naming and key combinations vary slightly by brand (Telefunken/Toshiba/JVC/OK/Finlux, etc.). Rely on the release notes that come with your exact package; don’t rename files unless instructed. (elektroda.com)
• Some publicly shared images are EU builds; if you are in the United States, ensure ATSC support is present in the build for your badge, or tuner features may be unavailable. (support.databeat.net)

Suggestions for further research

• If you provide your brand/model and product code, I’ll identify safe sources (authorized brand portal or reputable professional forums) known to host the exact 17MB130P + VES490QNDS-2D-N11 image and outline the precise steps for your badge.
• For learning/reference: vendor guides describing forced USB updates and service menu access on Vestel platforms (useful even across model families). (support.databeat.net)

Brief summary

• The only safe route is a brand/region/panel-matched image for 17MB130P with VES490QNDS-2D-N11.
• Start with the forced USB method (hold OK while powering on) using the correct package; if the TV is unresponsive, program the SPI first, then repeat the USB update. Confirm/adjust the panel code via MENU → 4725 if the TV boots. (support.databeat.net)

If you can, please share:

• Brand and retail model from the rear label
• Product/production code
• Photos or exact text from the mainboard and panel stickers
• Symptoms (dead, boot loop, backlight only, picture wrong, etc.)
  With that, I’ll give you a targeted, model-specific flashing plan.
