Default Firmware 2.0.100 channel selection location

First is my first radio bricked when trying to update its firmware to get the menu option to switch the radio to 8ch mode to connect an FGr8B for my crawler. Screen is just wavey vertical lines with mostly a greyish background except for a pale blue background bar at the bottom of the screen. I'll try to post a pic of it. The radio will not connect to the software to try to read if it took the firmware but I am guessing it didnt as it froze and rebooted at 7% and went to this state. Any ideas on recovering it other than shipping back to Flysky in China?

Guess I dont have enough posts yet to put up a picture. Oh well the description is right on and once I get the rght number of posts then I'll try to put it up unless I have totally written that radio off.

Second is actually the reason the first happened. I bought a second radio in the assumption that the first wasnt recoverable other than by shipping it off to China. So I am back at the starting point again. I need to get the radio to an 8 channel mode so I can use all the ports in the FGr8B. The receiver will bind to the radio but it doesnt go past ch 4 for settings in the radio. firmware of the radio is 2.0.100std and hardware 1.2. The receiver is 1.2 and 1.2 and was updated with the radio after binding. I tried this thread and youtube and the only thing I see for firmware 2.0.100 is the general how to update by WTF RC. I did see his video for the FGr8B and firmware 2.0.93 to get to 8 channel and connect the FGr8B. Problem is in 2.0.100 does not show the channel menu option in the SYSTEM menu. What the heck am I doing wrong? Should I just send this thing back ( yay buddy bezos ) and get the Pro?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

***Update***

Well I am a dummy. Found the setting for number of channels in a different part of the menu structure. So if you are looking for it in firmware 2.0.100 following WTF RCs Youtube vid of firmware 2.0.93. Dont get frustrated like I did and go to the model menu and right there below the NAME field is the CHANNEL NUMBER DEFINITION field.

So. Anybody have any ideas on the failed firmware update radio?

Thanks in advance for any help or insight to correct my dummy ways.
