Morni'n all. Hope not too much beer drunk....yet.
I "may" have got my wires crossed and put the wrong firmware on my box as all I am getting is an LED going from left to right and nothing more? I have a starview (not too sure which ver tbh but its not cloned as I have flashed this before) Any ideas please peeps? Cheers in advance |

A method you can use to recover from a bad flash, eg. the box won't boot to standby and is stuck in pre standby, either after about 3 or 4 moving green lines the box sticks with the green line not moving at all or it keeps moving . If the box will NOT RE-FLASH as normal from on or standby, try this but it may take a few attempts to work.
Connect the box to the pc with your cable but switch it off at the back. Load the correct firmware bin file into GTRom & set it to the correct com port, and select App file only then hit Download. Only then switch on at the back to power on the box. It may take a few sec. so wait at least 30 seconds. (If it doesn't work 1st time try also waiting a couple of seconds to switch on after pressing download in the loader.) It may take more than 1 try to work, but eventually you'll see the loader kick in and the % bar increase. You won't see the % on the Starview though. Only green lines moving left to right. Towards the end of the flash you'll see a message in GTRom saying FLASH BURNING. Then it will reach 100% and wait for the download complete pop up box to appear & the box will reboot back to factory setup. You will have lost any channel data previously on the box & will need to rescan & switch on EMU and set the box up from scratch. |
