Where can i find a uk modded sportster? do i need the dbox command centre program to flash it? i dont know if i have 1/2 chips do i have to open the box to find out?
Have you got a crossover cable? if not you cannot put them on. When you scan is there an option UK sym 6887?
If so choose that, fast scan off, and new bouquet.
Your box came with german channels, but since a scan showed some it might have a UK scan, fast scan may have been on.
Is it a Nokia? if so it is 2x. only sagems can be 1X or 2X.
If you have a Nokia and a cable and know how to use IFA or FTP then pm me your email and I will send an image.[/quote]I have a crossover cable, cant see any UK sym 6887 option just "tv, radio, all services" options. I have scanned and all Irish/English channels came up on the epg but only a handful work. Fast scan is off.
My box is a sagem. I'm not sure how to use IFA OR FTP I'll go learn how to use them and get back to you. I've been reading up on the dbox for the last few weeks but ojnly got the box today so some of it is begining to make sense :)

IFA is a little easier to use than FTP stuff, but try and learn both. I have found blade is best for sagems and have it for 1x and 2x, I have new settings from the programmer (Xenafan) but it was still freezing a little last night, self-recovered most times though, still the most stable I have used.

Thanks for the files Ruprect,
I will try them and PM how I got on.
Also Mgb mentioned disabling roms I have never done this so can I do it from remote or do I need lap top connected.

Commando is the only image I know of that you can disable roms from the menu (on tv via the settings menu).
On others you have to delete them. I am not certain but I think mgb17 has said it is really only an issue with evocam.
mgb17- do you think in the future we will ever need nagra 3,10,11? Does it matter if they are in the keys menu when using gbox?

Ok, I've flashed blade with IFA (cool welcome screen btw). Ihave tried scanning a few different providers and i have got one working for a second or two seemed jumpy then went black on ski movies. Now all im getting is an error message "channel not available" on all channels. do I need a more local services .xml? what else can i try? cheers

Try ucode version 0014. There should be a blue button menue for changing the ucode version. Reboot the box after that.

On blade stay watching TV, then press blue
this brings up a menu, press blue again and it should have a menu with "hardware settings" along with EMU selection etc.
Go in there and the ucode is selectable somewhere in there, maybe another level down again. 001A works best in dublin, might be different in Galway.

the movie channels are still choppy but seem a bit better than before. I'm just going to leave it alone for a while and see how it goes.

You have to reboot the box after a ucode change and if you don't know how pull the plug.
