the second post down, and do whats suggested!!
any problems get back here and someone will give you a dig out!

 

Really appreciate your help here guys. The 257 didn't work. When I opened GTRom Loader v4.00 I opened up the 257 bin file, and set file type to App File Only and clicked download.

It didn't pass 0% and after 20 seconds it came up with an error saying "Flash Update Fail..." retry/cancel... so I tried retry a few times to no avail.

Perhaps the Boot File is what I'm after ?? (clueless)

 

How ya Karl... Butt in away no problem !! the more the merrier!!
one thing I thought the logo "The Box" was SV 2 not one!

Sniiipe..are you using a null modem cable or rs232?

 

no thats what you should have,you will need to try the bad flash giude it could take 20 go's

 

Sweet! DesB, this worked for me "Connect the box to the pc with your cable but switch it off at the back. Load the correct
firmware bin file into GTRom & set it to the correct com port, and select App file only then hit Download.
Only then switch on at the back to power on the box. It may take a few sec. so wait at least 30 sec. "

I got CryptStar-v1.4-Core400.bin on the starview1 now. I turned it on, hit english then setup. Do I need to key in codes as I'm not getting them?

 

If you downloaded correctly then go to menu, installation, put in provider, then auto scan, this takes approx 5 mins, save , exit, turn emu on,exit go to sly sprts and it will click in.

 

thats correct but he has a starview 1 which he put 450 on which is for the box hence his problem.

 

did that and got back 176 chans:

on system info I get
"StarView
api ver 4.00e_E
boot ver 7.0
7 Jun 2007"

sly sprts gave me bad or scrambeled channel

 

right your nearly there... press menu put in 1570 then turn EMU ON exit back to sly sports ..you should get a message saying updating data!!

 

thanks DesB and all, once I hit 130% it worked

/me looks for code for one for all remote now. Thanks again

 

after u loaded the crypt did u previously factory reset and do a fresh scan and emu to on,as with frequency change u will lose a channel or 4.

 

glad you got sorted..

 

sniipe the reason i said to put the cryptstar270core on the box was because you need to no wether you have a clone or not,the genuine 400 will kill your box if its a clone.

 

thanks to you all for the help, don,t know what my friend did to his box to lose all the channels, however following your advice i have got it up and running again, thanks again

 

by the way we are running version 4. what is the latest flash version and if so is it worth updating ?

 

can anyone advise... i have starview 3 with version 7.09 on it. the picture freezes every now and then and bad or scrambled chanel appears. am i up to date with firmware?

 

The 7.09 is the most stable for Ireland. For the uk the 8.00 should do the trick.

 

thanks, will install and let you know

 

hi all starview3 box followed all the instructions in the prev post went to s.. sports got the up date msg but seems to be stuck on 0% any ideas
