Hey.

I have recently flashed my dbox with a Sportster Pro 1.1 image from an old sportster version. However since I have been unable to scan for any channels due to the cable provider options being German (I think). I read in another post about this so thought about flashing it again and try to get a UK image. However I am unable to upload any files to the dbox (It says somthing about the proxy not being configured right to allow me to write) and I can't find where to flash the box again in the Sportster Pro menus.

Any help to fix this would be apriciated.
Thanks

re-flash using Image Flashing Assistant should solve your problem

Thanks for the quick response. Where would I go about getting this utility. I read in another post that its in the download area, but I dont know how to get to that.

Thanks

So I have to post 5 times before I can get into the download section? Do these have to be in seperate threads? Is there anywhere else I could find this program? I have nothing against posting if I had somthing to post about, but I dont.

What is the file that is able to repair the lcd screen and rid it of lines etc? And where can i get it from? And is there a way you can personalise your dbox? ie put a picture on of something when dbxo starts up etc?

There is no file for that, it's a mechanical fix - look at where the ribon cable makes a connection at both ends and either using a very blunt knife or a screwdriver or something, make sure the ribbon is pushed firmly into the connector by dragging the screwdriver or knife over the ribbon pressing it down at the same time.

Very important: Do not press so hard that you cut or damage the cable
