If it is Starview 2 The Box, then it will need to be flashed with the latest firmware, but this problem of "updating" has been going on for over a week now. I have to be off now it is a bit late, so maybe tomorrow if you need help there will be someone around okay, in the meantime have a look here >>>>>>>>>>

it can take a while to get going, try using a different channel for updating or switching the box off from the mains and back on again.

Excuse me axxxo mate, think it needs flashing, rashid - when was the last time you had or you updated the box with new firmware, is it less than a week or is it longer than a week? (I know you came on late last night or early this morning) but we need to know that information.

No patsy, you are in the UK I presume, there is no need for that now, as the fix is not used now to flash over it, far easier method. What you want is this The Box 4.55.rar it is a new release 4th Dec 08, and you just use one BIN file, it comes with the Instruction and Loader GTRom 4.03. You will find it in Eamo's FTA Library at the bottom of my post, go into The Box Folder, then Firmware and there it is at the top, click in there and Download, you will need Winrar to unzip it.

ill throw my 2 cents in too

try turn the emu off then go back to a station and you will get the scrambled bad channel bit then do the menu 1570 then hit the default key BEFORE you turn emu back on see how that goes for ya

Hello to all worried people,

Just thought to share this info. I have this shared Cloned Star**** 1 box(TW glasgow area) which i flashed several time with new and old firmware. But of no use, then i finally settled down with old firmware for clone and used the Keymaster for manually inserting the code.It resolved my problem for the time being untill the new FIX is out.

Hope this is useful. The keymaster tool bar can be found at www.Thechatterbox.cc website. Its spyware/ adware proof. I am using that ATM.

Cheers

Then make sure that you unzip it and get The GTRom 4.03 and Bin file 4.55eE_api seperate. and then follow this - courtesy of Celtic >>

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

Open GTROM 4.03 Loader software make sure that you set the correct COM PORT that matches the one that is being used

Make sure App file only is selected, then click b1n File and browse to the firmware 4.55 eE_api.bin where you downloaded it to on your PC, double click it, or highlight and just open it, and it will appear in the BIN file box.

Run the GTROM 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, (important you have a little patience here)

The Starview will then reboot

Disconnect from PC and connect back up to the TV

It just might be axxxo mate, but I got the impression very late last night or early this morning (which ever way you look at it), that it wasn/t but he has not answered the question, can't help if we don't know, and as moggser posted, that is all he needs if he has updated, but I don't think he has. But could be wrong - Cheers anyway mate.

Yes, Application is the loader, so drag it out to to your Desktop and it will turn into a RED ARROW pointing downwards, that is the GTRom 4.03 Loader okay, let us know how you go on.


Edit:- There is a little release note with it - that is everything, just follow what I posted up above.
