Power off receiver
Connect the USB flash drive that contains the image recovery files It is named sf8008_2018-09-22_recover.zip, 110 MB aprox.). (i'm currently not at home, If you want, I can send it to you tomorrow)
Turn on receiver pressing power button until it gets red and says "boot".
After 10 o 15 seconds, the boot menu will appear (Start 1, start 2, USB network...)
Then you can check that remote works, by pressing the up or down buttons. Don't press OK.
Change the USB flash drive, and connect the one that has the image you want to upload.
select USB... and press OK and will start.....
OK, I use these files (sf8008_2018-09-22_recover.zip) to restore the box through the HiTool application. I'll try it.

USB offline update not working, I unzipped files to usb flash drive (8GB, FAT32 format), turn off receiver, connect usb flash drive to usb port, turn on receiver with power button, boot screen will appear, but I cannot select Recovery from USB - the receiver does not respond to commands from the remote control.
Mine does the same. Box doesn't respond to any remote key after appearing the Boot Menu.
I didn't bought the box. A friend of mine gave it to me.
The only way I can do a USB update is using two USB Flash Drives.
1) A USB flash drive which has a recover image (don't remember where I got it from), to boot receiver, and then remote control works.....
2) when you have the BOOT selection, you change the USB Drive and insert the one which contains the image you want to flash. Then you can press the USB recovery option and will start working.
I don't know if I understand it correctly.1) After switching on, connect USB flash drive with what content? Can it be empty?2) Then should the remote control work and select Recovery from USB?3) Then I disconnect the fake usb disk and mount the usb disk with the OpenPli image and the process will start?

The boot menu is octagon firmware, it is not related to whatever image is on the box. So I don't really understand why the remote would behave differently, the image isn't running at that point?
You can also make mmc_image available (just like OpenATV, OpenEight, OpenHDF, etc.), the online flash procedure works fine for me, so I could install OpenPli this way.
