hello all! got a starview 3, and lost all channels the other night apart from standard freeview channels. done a factory reset, put the latest ex c/w code in, still nothing. just says "data is being updated" and still nothing, then does it again and again!! turned off at the back and then tried again, still nothing. any help would be much appreciated. live in surrey and using V*****
forgot to say, it come up will all the channels, and the scheduled programs, but just no picture, just black screen
have never flashed it. always just updated the keys and has worked! how do i go about flashing it and getting the software for it?? thanks in advance
You'll get the firmware in Eamo's library, look under any of the guy's sigs, sc0user, noelyf, HiTeck, fergusrb etc. If have windows xp on your pc, all you need is an rs232 Null Modem cable and it's really easy to do, if you have vista it gets a little bit more complicated.
Because you probably don't have a female 9 pin serial port, so you will need a usb converter and drivers. There is a tutorial on how to do it somewhere, i will see if i can find it for you.
is this what i need: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00077DJIQ/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=&seller=
in the uk there switching freq's every day,so channels like skysports,setanta,zee and b4u have to be scanned daily...just have to wait and hope things cal...courtesy of fergie
