Just wondering is any of the kind souls out there would be able to help flash my starview 1. I am in the Dublin 15 area but can travel if it helps. I have bought the cables needed, but every time I try to flash it comes up as failed. I have done the factory reset, removed the firmware and reinstalled, all to no avail. I am truely at my wits end...

If anyone can help, pm me with detail and number of necessary beer tokens.

Thanks,

Dave.

What Firmware did you try put on it, is it a genuine or a clone box, are you sure your using a null modem rs232 cable and not just a rs232 cable?

Thanks Anto & Cactikid,

I am using a USB serial converter and am pretty sure it's a null modem rs232 cable. It's a genuine box and I have tried the firmware several times, following the handy instructions on this site to the letter.

I have tested my self restraint to the max to stop me from chucking the thing out the window and can now curse like a navvy.

All help appreciated.

And Santa Claus to the children.
Celebrate, this partys over,
Im goin home."
