Hi,

Can anyone confirm this box is done for? Started when all channels went off, cleared data and did rescan, no transponders found. Turned out there a was a fault in the area and not down to box. Since then cannot pick up anything. Numbers went out on faceplate but box still worked. Un-plugged it for a few days and now it won't switch on, red standby light is on but thats all it does?

Cheers.

Tell yer wot, somthin's goin on with all eurovoxes from last 1 month or so, been doin jobs for all me neigbors and friends with this issue.

Don't know whats goin on but like a said loads a people are losing channels and then NO signal issue's.

I reckon Uncle Richard has impleented some coding to shag the euro's up.

One other thing I must add, there are that many eurovox clones out now and personaly I would stay well clear of buying any Evox, great box when first came out but too many F U C K I N G Issues with the bleeder's, Clone wise!
Yer Never get these issues with Arnet/Kryptviews, so has I have said before if yer want a box then get a kv, flash it, and that's it no problems, but just hoping that aRNET don't get like Eurovox and keep bringing boxes out right, left and centre.
ok this latest kv-hd is gonna be the dogs bollocks of all boxes, but please don't keep bringin em out at the rate evoxes do OR WER'E gonna be getting Cloned KV's as well.

So your box is stuck in standby, with no response given by remote control or buttons on the front of the box?

Can you tell me whether you can sucessfully flash the box with your pc? Have you tried this, if not, try it, then post results here.

I'm sure I've read about this elsewhere so I will do some digging!

morrisoft is right it needs re flashing

mrhaddock · 28-09-09, 11:54 PM

No box won't flash pc doesn't recognise it when its connected, been told it needs jtag which I'm gonna get done when I can.

waqasahmed · 29-09-09, 12:14 AM

I do believe if its just stuck on standby it can be fixed(probably by jtag as you said( Ill do some digging shall for you also

)

jambutty · 29-09-09, 12:46 AM

Can be fixed, either it's a jtag job or if don't jtag then psu fault and these are easy to repair.
