    Welcome back gilly..... unfortunately the posting of codes is no longer allowed on this site.... you should just update your firmware/flash your box, then you can go away again and it will still work on your return LOL

    I hadn,t a clue at first either,dont worry..... as no codes are longer available the easiest way round it is to Flash your box..this means updating it with the latest firmware,you need 3 things a PC... A null modem cable.. and the box.. and patience (thats 4)

    have a look here for a guide on how to do it:

    Hi Lads - quick question...

    I bought 2 ev's at the same time (think they're both 07 Reds - original). I updated the firmware on my own one using the releases on Eamo's link (Red Max) & it's working fine (albeit I need to get the latest CDF & use that but that's ok) but when I updated the other EV everything works fine up to the point where I hook it back up to the PC & do a power scan (290 - 420 on 6.887 for NT hellll Dublin). During the powerscan I can see that all the channels have been picked up but it's when I "exit & save" that the "code being updated" screen appears.......

    The message "code being updated" stays on the screen & nothing happens (on the other EV I put it to sky sports & the channells came after 5 mins). But on this one it will just stay like that for hours with no picture....any ideas (do I need to double check my version (black/blue)????

    Thanks in advance.....

    Janey Mack.

    I know this is strange but the file might be corrupt, simply delete the original download, and then re download and do another flash, this might work!!

    You need to identify the model of box he's buying first, then come back here for the correct firmware.

    As gman has said, when you have identified it - then you will not have a problem, if you know for sure that it is a 2008 MaxV black, then everything you need is on the front page of this thread.

    Trying to download UFL MAX V-18-04-08 to a new Max V Black. Managed to get the serial port to detect the box - I get the Version 2.10 detected message. When I select START - the message "System Reset..." displays and nothing happens.

    Any ideas if this is doing anything? How long should I wait?

    Thanks
