Hi, I hope there is someone out there who can get my new Starview 1 box up and running. I received a new Starview 1 box today and on closer inspection I now realise it's a cloned box ! That to me is neither here nor there all I want is something that works. I have connected it up via the supplied serial cable and downloaded/flashed the STARVIEW 257 API.bin file via the GTRom v4.00.exe installer via port COM1 without any problem and it stated 'Download Complete' before I disconnected it. But on connecting it to my TV all I get when I switch the box on is 4 dashes chasing in a loop from left to right on the left side of the display. Is this a normal problem and what needs to be done to get it working ? Many thanks in anticipation. Regards, zakogen.
Hi, Many thanks for that. I now seem to have a good flash and it starts OK. I have followed the set up instructions and done a automatic scan but the vast majority of the channels throw up the following : INFO : Scrambled or bad channel. All these channels have a blank screen and no sound ! How can I unscramble these channels in order to watch them ? Is it down to the bin file I downloaded or something else ? Many thanks in anticipation. Cheers, zakogen.
The problem is that you didnt download the latest Auto Upate firmware , You will need to download the CryptStar-v1.4-Core257.bin as the one you used is the old version and it will not update the codes for you. You can find it here : http://www.4shared.com/file/44560665/dccfe334/CryptStar-v14-Core257.html Do it the same way as you flashed before using the same gt rom loader And do as Noely said above after you update it menu > 1570 Turn "key emu" on Go to "set default key" Press ok Exit to s*y sports & let it update & you should be sorted. Hope this helps.
Hi, Yes that sounds good but before I attempt this can you confirm that the CryptStar-v1.4-Core257.bin firmware is OK with cloned boxes and won't kill it ??!!
Hi all, Can I please thank all those that gave me help it is much appeciated and great to know there are people out there willing to put themselves out to help. I can gladly say that the advice given has gave me a great result and my new cloned box is now up and running with all channels available. I know where to go in the future should anything go wrong !! Many thanks and best regards, zakogen.
Hi, Can anyone please solve my cloned Starview 1 box. All has been working fine until the last few days when I have a Info pop up on screen saying 'Data is being updated... [60%]' and it just seems to hang on varying percentages !! The box is flashed with CryptStar-v1.4-Core257.bin version firmware and has been fine since some early teething troubles (see previous info in this trhread). Is there a new version firmware avaiilable for cloned boxes? Does it need a new firmware flash or is my box knackered as its only 3 months old ??!! Many thanks in anticipation. Cheers, zakogen
zakogen, i take it you are in the uk? If so you`ll just have to sit tight like everyone else & wait until there is a firmware fix for this problem
Hi, Yes I am in the UK but can anyone tell me what the latest firmware available for a cloned Starview 1 box is ? I have flashed the box with CryptStar-v1.4-Core257.bin, is this the latest available for my box ? Cheers, zakogen.
yeah thats the right firmware ... but as Noel says there is nothing you can do at the moment except manually input the codes until sometime as there is a fix developed!!
Hi, How will I know if and when a new fix is released ? Is it simply a case of watch this space ? Cheers, zakogen.
It will be made available and information will be posted here >>>>> http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/722659
