I have 301.013 with vmod, got ECM tonight - tried to erase s049 ,but the receiver wouldn't wake up after reset - led stops blinking after a while ,but no picture. So i decided to erase the flash and restore from clean backup. now - when I do Erase it will not erase the last sector S070 I beleive - I understand this one is write protected. So should i worry about erasing and reprogramming it with vmod or it can be left alone as ECM couldn't write there either ?
Thanks

I have the answer to my question - it's yes :)
the S070 is identical in original and ECMed images so programming flash didn't complain and went fine -so if erasing and reprogramming flash on 013 without vmod on , just ignore the "flash not blank" warning

should the led blink all the time ? does it mater if you do it with magic card, yellow card or no card ?

another question - can I backup S049 and erase/restore it after ECM versus just erasing it and waiting 30 min ?

No card while restreaming.
After it updates, sometimes you will see system info with a warning, ignore the warning and unplug the receiver, plug it back in and put your card in and do a switch check.
