    Howdy Folks

    I'm really hoping that there's a kind hearted soul out there that will be able to help me out. I recently purchase a starview 3 the box super and apparently I need to download the software called GTROM_7.05 to install on it.

    CAN SOMEBODY HELP?? PLEASE!!

    try going into the menu and pressing 1570. turn key EMU on and press set default key. exit to a channel and wait a few seconds and it will update the code.

    Dan when you say you have done it many times this is exactly what you need to do:

    turn on box. press menu. then press 1.5.7.0 this will bring you into the secret menu. try it again and come back.....

    try menu, parental lock, press info then 2004. if that doesn't work you need to update the version it's FTA.

    you need to put on a version thats not only free to air. are you sure you have a null modem and not an rs232?

    press menu and go to system info and check what the API ver is.
