EX500 PVR Problem (possible clone?)

phed1 · 05-07-09, 12:41 AM

hi a freinds box has the lastest firmware but i belive it may be a clone, i can manually enter codes and it works fine but it refuses to update the codes itself, it always sits at code updating please wait, the power switch on the back says on off instead of a circle and dash and the eurovox hologram and sticker seems faded this leads me to belive its a clone

anyone had this problem or seen anything like this happen, what should i do with this box, all ideas welcome!

cheers

sounds like outdated firmware mate , All the new firmware autorolls. Try flashing UFL_ex5000_08-07-08 . Should do the trick
