    if it's someone you know they'd do it for you but suppliers that sell flashed boxes get into bad trouble.

    You will need version 7.09 firmw@re for THE SUPR B0X found in "THE B0X SUPR" firmw@re folder. (UFL = Unified Firmware Loader / All In One )

    http://www.4shared.com/file/53494857/dc1111e2/GTRom_Super_709eBETA.html

    You will also need W1nRar to extract the file to your desktop

    http://www.4shared.com/file/28733441/7c4273a7/wrar35.html


    Updating Firmw@re

    Connect your box and PC with a Null modem cable and switch on the cable box and put it on STANDBY.
    (The Starvi*w does not need to be connected to TV to update it with GTROM)

    Open GTRom_Super_709e Loader from your desktop and make sure that you set the correct COM PORT that matches the one that is being used.

    Make sure App file only is selected

    Run the loader by pressing Download and you will see the % progress increase then Download completed message on your PC.

    Wait until you see the DOWNLOAD COMPLETE p0p up on your PC before removing the NULL MODEM CABLE.

    The Starvi*w will then reboot

    Disconnect from PC and connect back up to the TV :)
