Starview Firmware

I have noticed that a lot of people that a lot of people would like to have the starview firmware. Due to the high demand I have uploaded the files along with GTRom Loader v4.00 (used to flash the firmware onto the starview)

API Ver:
255
257 mirror
259 mirror
260 - Only for real boxes. Manufacture assured that it will kill fakes
300 - Only for real boxes. Manufacture assured that it will kill fakes
400 - Only for real boxes. Manufacture assured that it will kill fakes
401 (Modified Version 400) - Only for real boxes. Manufacture assured that it will kill fakes
Click here to check if you have a real or fake box

GTRom Loader v4.00 - Downloads:

Download the GTRom Loader First to check if my server hasn't corrupted the files. If it downloads but doesn't startup then all the files will be corrupt. It seems to be a problem with the PHP on my server

If you notice that these links do not work then just say so and I will try to update them as soon as possible. And if someone could test the firmwares which I have not tested that would be most appreciated

Edit 1: Added the 259 firmware to the list
Edit 2: Links are working as of 15/04/2007
Edit 3: Added how to flash a starview box
Edit 4: Added the 260 firmware to the list
Edit 5: Added the 255 firmware to the list
Edit 6: Added the 300 firmware to the list
Edit 7: Added the 400 firmware to the list
Edit 8: Added the 401 firmware to the list

 

The links are not working

 

Sorry there seemed to be a problem with my host. Doesn't matter I reuploaded the file.

 

all fine now cheers ..tnx

 

For those who care I have added the 260 firmware although it is untested. So if someone could test it, it would be helpful

 

ive read somewhere that each uk region needs a different firmware, is this correct? whats the difference between 257 & 259?

thanks

 

I've never heard of that one. I know that each region need a different channel file. But that is only required if you don't want to do an automatic scan. Everyone I know uses the 257 API. Truthfully I do not know what the difference is between 257 and 259.

 

is there any apps to modify / tweak the firmware? Do starview suffer from bad flashes? if so are they recoverable?

 

hello asad78611,i've been trying to download the gtrom loader you hav posted,it'll download but it wont run,any ideas what to do????

 

Sorry about that. You should download the GTRom Loader first if it runs the others will. If it doesn't then tell me because all the files go currpt together.

Edit: Sorry I didn't see the first post about the GTrom Loader 2 days ago

 

Asad, your a saint, i got my 10 boxes working fine no, much obliged, Stephen

 

Your Welcome,
PS. Don't call me a saint. I'm not all that good. Just know a few things.

 

VERISON 260 DOESNT WORK I USED IT AND IT CAUSED MY STAR VIEW 2 POWER OUT AND NOT WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Well the files wont have been corrupt if you downloaded them after the 9th May. So its probavly the firmware file. If someone could send me another copy of it. I'll compare and see if there is a problem with my version. Sorry about that

 

ive got the file but how do i send it to you? am i allowed to post my email on here?

 

Nothing wrong with the file, it's the clone Starviews that cannot take updates and get wiped out.

 

If the firmware isnt to blame then why did every one with a 260 upgrade end up with a dead box - all at the same time, think about it

 

Its killing off the genuine starview boxes too.
