Please help, I have installed the new firmware for my pvr5000 but i am still getting codes updating message on screen, this hasnt happened before and im stuck, any advice would be greatly appreciated.Many thanks
Make sure you have installed the correct firmware: there is also firmware for EV 1000 (the icons look very similar in the emos library, so check carefully);
Someone may correct me on this but when you flash the box again it may take 10-15mins to update and you will get the 'please wait...code updating' message until it does update itself. Just leave it on a prem channel and wait
Hi, I'm using the eurovox ex 1000 sl for the last three weeks with choxxs Cork but there is a problem with the box freezing regularly. It might be perfect for an hour or so and then it starts to act up again which is becomming very annoying. Just wondering is it a known problem with the software and will there be a fix for the problem? Cheers.
@ vidou - When I flashed the EX5000 it flew in and all channels were the same. However, when I flashed the Max V it lost everything and had to do a fresh installation and powerscan. Just can't see what I did different - but it just took 20 mins instead of 2. Out of interest if anyone knows why I would love to know for my knowledge base ;-)
Hi folks, as a beneficiary of the wonderful knowledge this site has given me, im just wondering what the situation is- was there legal action or some other event that had those threads closed down? Thanks
Just flashed my ex5000pvr. Everything perfect including favourites. Well done guys. Don't know how you do it all so quickly.
@ macster79 - I had a broadly similar problem six months ago. I solved it by sorting the inbound cables & connections; renewing/tightening etc. just a thought; and it may be worth a try
hiteck have you also got a simple step by step guide for the nokia dbox and starview? Ive got the dbox and my parents have the starview and both need updating but cant find a simple guide like the one for the eurovox. Can anyone help, posted a thread a few days ago but no one has replied :-(
I flashed 4 EX1000Sls yesterday for mates - 2 worked straight away but one took about 5 mins (had me worried) i have a max v which I didn't flash because I wanted to see if there were any more keyrolls what would happen. Sure enough I got in at lunchtime and my max v was froze. Flashed it about half an hour ago and it also took 3-4 mins to update - while I was flashing it I stuck a mates Ex1000Sl on to see if it still worked (one of the ones I flashed yesterday) and it had the 'code updating' message - Left it on and the picture came back before I had finished flashing my own max v. So to give you a very longwinded answer it just seems to be totally random. Just keep fingers and everything else crossed and hope all now settles down for a long, long time. (I've been keeping about 8 different people on air with latest codes over the last few days and now they all want their boxes flashed) spose they'll all have forgotten by Xmas!! Could I just add my own personal Thank You to all involved in getting us back 'on air.'
Just had an afterthought mate - did you save (upload) your channel data before flashing the max and then download after flashing. I think this is maybe where you went wrong.
I did go at my inbound cables but found no real problem and then I brought the box to a friends house and found the same problem there when I plugged in my box, and they were using a starview and had no problems so I can only think that it must be a software problem. It could be my location or povider. Where abouts are you? Cheers for the reply.
Flashed my EX5000 last night, working great thanks. Just had a look, I've got Emulation Enabled and EMM Capture Disabled. I can't remember if this is correct,and can't find it earlier in this thread. Amyone please??
hi guys, just would like to ask, if the firmware for The Box is out or they still working on it? Thanks alot.
Thank to everyone who worked on new fir*ware, your amazing!!!!!!!! And thanks to db7 who helped me a few days ago, i really appreciate it. I dont know much about these boxes, but i will keep eye on forums and if i can help, i will. Hope all newbies do the same! doubt it though.
I did exactly the same for both flashes - on neither did I upload/download the CDF stuff - but on the first one immediately after the flash it was good to go. Still don't understand the different behaviour. Like I inferred - it's not a problem more that I'd like to know ;-) (Thanks for getting back to me)
