    I have noticed that a lot of people that a lot of people would like to have the starview firmware. Due to the high demand I have uploaded the files along with GTRom Loader v4.00 (used to flash the firmware onto the starview)

    API Ver:
    255
    257 mirror
    259 mirror
    260 - Only for real boxes. Manufacture assured that it will kill fakes
    300 - Only for real boxes. Manufacture assured that it will kill fakes
    400 - Only for real boxes. Manufacture assured that it will kill fakes
    401 (Modified Version 400) - Only for real boxes. Manufacture assured that it will kill fakes
    Click here to check if you have a real or fake box

    GTRom Loader v4.00 - Downloads: [​IMG]

    Download the GTRom Loader First to check if my server hasn't corrupted the files. If it downloads but doesn't startup then all the files will be corrupt. It seems to be a problem with the PHP on my server

    If you notice that these links do not work then just say so and I will try to update them as soon as possible. And if someone could test the firmwares which I have not tested that would be most appreciated

    Edit 1: Added the 259 firmware to the list
    Edit 2: Links are working as of 15/04/2007
    Edit 3: Added how to flash a starview box
    Edit 4: Added the 260 firmware to the list
    Edit 5: Added the 255 firmware to the list
    Edit 6: Added the 300 firmware to the list
    Edit 7: Added the 400 firmware to the list
    Edit 8: Added the 401 firmware to the list

    For those who care I have added the 260 firmware although it is untested. So if someone could test it, it would be helpful

    I've never heard of that one. I know that each region need a different channel file. But that is only required if you don't want to do an automatic scan. Everyone I know uses the 257 API. Truthfully I do not know what the difference is between 257 and 259.

    is there any apps to modify / tweak the firmware? Do starview suffer from bad flashes? if so are they recoverable?

    Sorry about that. You should download the GTRom Loader first if it runs the others will. If it doesn't then tell me because all the files go currpt together.

    Edit: Sorry I didn't see the first post about the GTrom Loader 2 days ago

    Well the files wont have been corrupt if you downloaded them after the 9th May. So its probavly the firmware file. If someone could send me another copy of it. I'll compare and see if there is a problem with my version. Sorry about that

    Nothing wrong with the file, it's the clone Starviews that cannot take updates and get wiped out.

    If the firmware isnt to blame then why did every one with a 260 upgrade end up with a dead box - all at the same time, think about it
