    Hi guys, take a look at

    http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/34/517485

    There are warnings there about v3. Do not use any version on a clone box, even so called clone friendly ones.

    I'm not sure if this is a good idea anymore, but here goes. If you can't find new codes, flash to version 3, wait for it to update the keys, then flash it back to 2.57 or 2.58.

    This is what I did once or twice, but as I say, I'm not sure it's such a good idea to put v3 on the clone even for a few minutes, as it may slowly damage the box.

    It has also been said that it may not be the firmware, that the eeproms and power packs are causing problems too.
    Remember, I am only advising, I can't tell you what to do.
    Here speaks someone who blew away a clone with v4 in just over 3 hours.

    Hi mel07. If you scanned using c*w, then you need the c*w keys, as they are specific to each provider.

    4.51 is generally for the UK, but should be OK in Ireland have you thought about reflashing it with 4.50 to see if this makes a difference.
