    Press Menu then 1570 and press the "Set Default Key" , press OK and tune into S*Y Sports and it should auto update for you

    i tried it i reflashed it and it still says data is being updated 0%

    i could enter codes manually and it works but thats very annoying and the codes change too often. is there anything else i can do? thanks.

    there has to be some way around it. i'm sure it didn't happen everyone or there would be a lot of threads on this.

    nope... cause their codes are still running off fridays keys... nthell have not updated their keys in 2 days so no problem... but as soon as the new key change happens (i guess monday morning at 7am) then you will see a fecking HUGE flood of people posting on here about not updating :) we are just the lucky ones that have an early warning :)

    as for what i think is happening is they are sending out a pulse which is restarting the auto update... so that it doesn't get to even 20% you will see the box twitching. so all it takes is a software update to ignore this pulse and we should be back on track.

    nthell is loosing alot of money from these boxes, so your sure they have loads of programmers trying to find any little glitch that can knock off the auto update. but the box manufacturers are also making alot of money and will have programmers to keep trying to fix the glitches .. battle if the geeks :)

    switch it off at the back for 2 minutes with the codes entered manually.

    switch it back on and set default key with emu on. go to an encrypted channel and it will update.

    it might do a quick update then about 150% since theres two codes.
