I recently purchased the box super sv3 and flashed it but i never got any channels and assumed its because of the recent problems in uk. I have now reflashed it with the box super fix "GTrom_super 8.02e" but still cannot get any channels. its just scanning a total of 28 channels which are all failing. Is there more firmware that i need? my sys info is as follows: API ver: 8.02eE Boot ver:8.00 30 november 2008 Please help
dont search with a splitter? allso make sure ur searching the right line.. NTL CW and so on.. i pay for the small offer from virgin media so i get 450+.. if they are scrambled turn EMU on (Menu > press 1570 > EMO on)
I am using Ntl as my provider for my area "Peterborough, England". What do you mean when you say "dont search with a splitter?". I am not getting any channelsb at all
try this. scroll down to the part where it tell you how to rescan the channels after you reflashed http://www.freewebs.com/boxsuper/
garderner1: I never got the channels with my first flash either and i thought it was the current problem. Could it be my artenna?
if you only getting apox 34 channels then most likely you havent installed properly using the gtrom loader...you could possibly have unplugged the null cable before its finished writing...34 channels means only free to air channels and radio channels...it wont harm to reinstall from loader ,follow the procedure in the starview firmware updating link found in scouser or hiteck's threads,and make sure you factory reset after that before you scan...if you get mostly fails,i.e when scanning you should get an initial 6% reading at the bottom of the screen,which will then go to 2% and the shoot up...if you dnt,then try another network..hope that helps
gardener: I have used the same guide as the one on the link you gave me until it said download completed already. Thats why i am confused because i followed it and it flashed but on connecting to tv and scanning for channels nothing happens.
scandalou: What am missing? I downloaded the firmware and flashed the box following the guide notes and the download was complete. I then connected the box to the tv, making sure my artenna cable goes into the cable input socket on the box. connected the scart lead as instructed. I then do the auto installation, chosing my provider as i researched to be Ntl. The scanning then starts with a total of 28 channels which all fail, i cant even get BBC1. I try to exit but cannot get past the laungage menu. I have done the factory reset and scanned again and again but no change. My parental control is greyed out assuming its because i have no channels. I have gone into the CAS menu, turn the EMU: ON, but no joy i have used the recent GTrom_super_8.02eFix my sys info is: Api ver: 8.02e Boot ver:8.00 30 November 2008 I am buffled and confused, Please help. Thanx very much.
maybe a stupid question but you do have a virgin media line installed dont you? this wont work on a sky dish or other antenna.

Got them back by doing this Turn the b0x off at the back for a min, turn it back on & leave it on s*y sports & see if it updates. If not Go up one channel & it might kick in.
