starview clone flashing problems

[dongle1000]

hi all
i have flashed a few boxes in my time but this one is beating me
it is a starview 1 clone
i have tried flashing it with the cryptstar-v1.4-core257.bin fix
it seems to flash ok but after the flash has completed the box resets and still has the number 0001 channel showing on the lcd screen
when you flash the box it should wipe the channels off so screen should say 0000
i have tried putting my saved cdf file onto the box but no joy
it still shows 0001 on the lcd
when i plug it into the cable and tv it shows bbc1
when i press down channel to 0000 it still shows bbc1
i then click down channel again and the number 8.535 shows on the lcd display and still plays bbc1
unable to go higher than 0001 but will go down the channels constantly showing bbc1
has anyone else had this problem
has the tuner died during flashing as worked prior to flashing
cheers

there are two cryptstar-v1.4 versions one for clone boxes and one for genuine boxes did you put the clonesafe one on your clone box?

yeah m8
every starview in the north east must be a clone as i have yet to see an original
tried reflashing it with the clone safe one several times now
flash completes ok but still doesn't stop the channel problem as stated previously

wierd

does anyone have an old flash for clone boxes that i could try or even the fta flash
worth a try

The only thing I can think of (if you haven't already tried it) is to redownload the firmware as it may have somehow got corrupted
