if you want 454 on you have to start with 452 453 and then 454 and make sure you have the logo file on

Hi sorry its the original starview box
cheers

You will need the GTrom loader to open the bin file.
The bin file needed is Cryptstar-V1.4-Genuine only.

Its in the file under Karlj signature called EK0.4 shared.com

Look at this thread for the link and Karljd name

Let me know if you get stuck and I will see if I can help you out

yes but on 4.53 the line that moves across to the right on startup just keeps repeating from left to right and it does nothing else.

can you go back and put the 451 back on and see what happens

Mucho Thanks

Done and if its a Starview clone you need to flash it with http://www.4shared.com/file/44560665/dcc...rified=2e022dc3 found in Eamos, just click this link.

Same as last years flash just a different patch, sorry I could not answer you in my shout box as it is a bit over run at the moment.

karl, can I just come in here a minute as regards the 4.52,53,54, using GTRom 4.00 is no good, that's what I think is happening - this is the procedure :- From v4.50/51 you must - Use the New Improved GTrom Loader Ver 4.03 for example >>>>>>>

First flash thebox_H20070814_452eE_api.bin to your box with the new GTRom.4.3
(select as App file only)

Then flash thebox_logobg.bin to your box using the new GTRom.
(select Background Data File)

Version 4.53 For UK

If you are upgrading from 4.51 or earlier you must flash 4.53 first. then flash the logo file. If you already have the 4.52 on just flash the 4.53 straight on no need for the logo file, you must use the 4.3 loader.

Version 4.54 for UK & Ireland

If you are upgrading from 4.51 or earlier then flash 4.54 1st then Aafterwards flash the logo file. If you already have 4.52 on or later then just flash the 4.54 straight on without it. You must use the new Loader Software v4.3

Personally I find the 4.52/53 and 54, to be more trouble than they are worth, with green screen crashes in epg etc, I find the 4.51 much more stable, but it's an individual choice, but that is the procedure above.

From this day forward posting of any new codes to the discussion forums is prohibited.

Existing posts and discussion threads remain in place, but no updates to code posts or new threads requesting for codes are allowed.

Thank you.


If the existing posts and threads cannot be updated then how can people find out what the new codes are?

Either by updting their boxes with AU firmware, (like we have said for a long time) or go and find they elsewhere, they are still freely available, just not here anymore.

Although the power of pm is also a great thing.

No. There are other similar threads on the site, and we have nothing against them in general. People are free to use our forums for what ever they want to, as long as they follow the forum rules.

People need to try and find the codes somewhere else.

Originally posted by novemberfox:

Like I mentioned here it was a logical move to make, since posting software serial numbers and cracks is also prohibited. The codes can well be compared to those.

This was a decision we made on our own. We haven't been contacted by a third party regarding the matter.

Nearly every other DVB forum I know of has also stopped the posting of codes as of this week, I mod on a few and it was due to CC pressure. Timing must of just been coincidental with regards to AD's decision.
