PC switched on GTrom open with bin file in place,put cable into box, switch on and turn to stanby and press download.Dont reset boxes just plug them straight in,but did try a full factory reset and no difference.Don't mind the questions if you can help me

make sure all the pins are there on your computer you could have damaged one the last time you did a flash.

Morning everyone. Correct me if I am wrong but can you do a box to box flash with the Starview. So if you have two Starview's you can clone one box from another, similar to the Eurovox slave to master method.

And so if the gtloader/firmware/pc is an issue, by bypassing these you can effectively flash the SV.

Go to page 1 of this thread there is a Jtag guide there. That is what you need.

Hello Guys n Gals,

Found these guys to be really helpful, the service from them was magic: http://www.starviewbox.co.uk/downloads.html

It is also possible that this cable 'will' work with laptops when updating firmware: http://www.psylins.co.uk/shop/product.php?xProd=1168&xSec=101

Hope this helps out guys.

KMACDON.

the null modem is ok with a pc just not when i connect it to the male.. i am sure the force will guide us all lol..I am thinking of building a new pc anyway so I will make sure I purchase a DB9 socket hopefully starview will make life easier in the future and do away with the rs232 which is probably older than my grandfather and use usb only for upgrades.
