Afternoon all......for those in the know you must be sick and tired of hearing all about probs with the boxes but I am totally lacking in any understanding when it comes to things like this.
I have from what i can see a genuine box.....from pics and descrioption all genuine....

did the usual....made sure emu was on and reset system and searched channels finding around 340. then exit to channels and as some have said go to sky sports and it will update and hey presto channels will come back......nope....just continual updating.....
so after lots of searching found that i needed to instal new files....went and purchased leads and downloaded 2 different sets of files and tried each one indiviually...all went well for both uploading onto the box but then stil no channels...just updating as before.....

Read the Threads in BOLDletters first. You can read so it aint hard is it.

If everyone carries on asking what is already been explained in the Threads then you'll spoil it for the rest of us Million out there WITH the same problems!!!

 

here and here

 

yeah thanks for that raartoot...very helpful....not...i am a newbie on here....have read many threads and posts and have done what I thought was right...ALL i was asking was for a little bit of advice.....i thought that that is what this was all about asking for advice from others who may be able to help......
i have notr asked for codes or numbers like others....just a friendly bit of advice if I am dong something wrong so relax will ya.

 

"clap clap" so you read the threads then???so whats your problem, surely you can work out that its not just you having these probs of lost channels etc unless you finding it hard to understand.
Too hasty thats what it is.
