How Do U Unlock the Pin Code from V+ Box? - Techwatch Support Forums: Digital & Satellite TV, FTA, Cable, Computers, Mobile Phones, Apple and General Tech Forums

I purchased a V+ box that has a pin code locking the channels, I have tried 0000, 1111, 1234 but nothing. I have been told to switch off box and hold down up and down arrows along with ok button and standby and box will reset itself but it has not worked.

Does anyone know how to reset this?

you can use the fun card method to reset it m8

welshcake · 10-01-09, 06:16 PM

How do I do that? I take it I need someone to copy my excisitng card and that will re set the pin?

bramleyandy · 10-01-09, 06:54 PM

you will have to change the 512 chip m8 only way to change it

welshcake · 10-01-09, 07:21 PM

Oh no not the 512 chip. Is there no other way of changing it

G77 · 10-01-09, 07:25 PM

if it doesnt accept the atmega netid and pin (and i dont fancy your chances) the 512 is the only way.

Even in pure? I suppose the problem I got then is the person who's original subbed box this was put a pin code in. I would have thought there must be a way of getting rid of it otherwise when VM collect their boxes they would have to change the chip on each of them before they refurb them and send them out.

G77 · 10-01-09, 07:57 PM

i like your thinking. there prob is, but we dont know what that 'way' is.

that way would prob be what they do when you ring the pin helpline when your locked out. they just send a pin reset hit to the box via the mac or ip of the box on the net

G77 · 10-01-09, 07:59 PM

i suppose you could connect without the filter and ring up the helpline, tell them your having probs modding it beacuse the default pin isnt working.

(thats a joke btw)

if you dont wanna do the chip removal mod. i'll have the box offov you

So I need to get a pre programmed chip then so how much is that going to cost me as you have a stated a blank chip will not work.
