That is what i did and how i set the box up. I was scanning channels and was getting doubles. I was trying to delete all the channels and i was going to set it up in another room where i could get a better signal. That is when the panel started rebooting over and over right after another. Thats when i started adding the other files and programs. I think the box is dead. the red light on the box comes on. the panel will display the numbers when ever it gets ready by turning it on and off. The loader 2 i have cant transfer any files into the reciever now.



I got it from the listing here. It says i can send it back with no questions asked and they will fix it. do you agree with that or?????? i dont want to get in trouble.

Tee,

If you don't know how to JTAG it, take it to any dealer that sells Ultra and ask them to fix it.
They should be able to do it in 10 minutes and then you will need to load the original bin followed by the new bin once it is released.

Don't send it back to any one, just go to where you got it from and ask them to fix it

VA as in Virginia? You want to tell me that no one in all of Virginia sells FTA's? Man just open the Yellow pages and you will find a ton, or just google it

Jan ,

Please do alot more reading and studying before giving advice. Your statement could not be any more wrong.


Tee,

Please ignore her misinformed statement.

Yes I would contact the seller about an exchange now while we are waiting for the new bins you have nothing to lose...

Tester, I did get the factory bins loaded into the boxs before its went dead. So it should show up as factory, correct? my question is what should i say to him when i email him about it? What would diffently keep me out of trouble.

Thank
Tee

The sellers all know what we do with the receivers. I would tell him a small "white lie" that it keeps rebooting itself and will not accept any files such as a channel list and its unusable to you.

good luck
