STARVIEW UPDATING FIRMWARE - NO CODE BEGGING HERE

I just tried 6.01 there again, the box is still crashing, works for 2mins then reboots itself

 

where did you get the software?

 

From the link above, eamo's library

 

thats strange try it from my link its and let me know where you living roughly don give your address now lol

 

I just tried it there, didnt work, any other ideas?

Im living in lucan...

 

there are 2 different sv3 firmwares as boxes differ slightly u just have to find out which box is yours.

 

How do i check which box i have? And once i know what box I have what'll I do then?

 

Depends when you got it really, if you only recently purchased it, then it will probably need the latest firmware - only real difference in recognising visually is the newer model has an extra TV output, it has internal (tongue in cheek) tuner etc. improvements, if this is what you have then it is the GTRom_Super_709e you should use - if it is the earlier model then better to stick with the 6.01.

 

Well it only has one tv output, if i try 709 will that cause any damage?
I have a signal booster on my n*l cable, maybe that could be effecting it?

 

sorry to bother u lot again still no luck with the bad flash on sv 1 tryed box off download box on many many times still nothing i think my box is wiped alltogether is there any way to start it again and what is the best firmware tryed lots of them from eamos

 

ive got my null cable and USB adapter today. did everything step by step and im ready to kill someone.

Its a clone starvi3w, yes ive loaded the USB adapter driver, ive tried all the comm ports, ive put it in stanby, ive tried the bad boot meathod, i keep getting 0% FAILED

im using the right firmware (core 257) and GTrom Loader V4

flash update fail!!!!

ive tried it on 2 laptops and 1 desktop. what the hell am i doing wrong?

 

faulty null modem cable maybe by the looks of it if you say you tried everthing else

 

back to ebay i go

 

what for a cable??? getone in a store if yoyu know anyone with one that might of updated a box ask them for a loan just to make sure it it a faulty cable you got

 

Hi There, I tried this method and got the Download Complete message. But when the box restarts it goes back to the one green light and will not go any further. I have the correct software & firmware so can you suggest what I might be doing wrong? I have a genuine starview and am using it in Ireland with "The Box" firmware.

 

If you have a Starview why are you using "The Box" firmware?

 

What should I be using? I'm in Ireland.

 

You have downloaded the wrong firmware to your SV, hence your problem. Look at page 1 of this very thread http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/663923#4033220 and as you will see all the info is there for you

You may need to use the bad flash method either way with the correct firmware or you may get lucky.

 

Cheers Scouser, I'll update you on my progress. Fingers crossed.

 

No problem you should be fine
