Ex BF Left Me a C$$LS$T 6000. Need Help

New member Username: Karen_newbie_girlPost Number: 1 Registered: Apr-08 | My ex BF left me a C**LS*T 6000. I found out after searching for many days why it was not working, and perhaps it will not get new software. So I guess I can learn it to update myself if the new software ever arrives. However, I am thinking to get a new unit, if he asks it back. I need a recommendation which unit should I buy that gets new files faster and allows Manual Scan and has good Picture. Thanks! |

Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 9810 Registered: Jun-06 | There has been a fallout between th emanufacturers of CS4000, 5000 and 6000 and the US importers. The support was from people in Kora and that original NORW group no longer exists for these receivers. New coders have been supporting for the past 2-3 months. The current CS 6100,7000,8000 etc are made in a different factory and have much in common with some other receivers. The original NORW group is coding for these. If you buy a new receiver by mail order - buy from a USA mail order house if you live in America and from a Canadian mail order shop if you live in Canada. |

Diamond Member Username: LklivesPost Number: 15110 Registered: Jan-06 | here's the real info on the Coo*lsat coders..Norw group..get educated nalin, then report back to your boss at Dishnet HQ..fricking mole! The original NORW coders left a year ago, and went to Nfusion..then a new group came in, and they are divided..some code the new visionsat aka Ipro, some do the newer coo*lsats 6100-7000-7100-etc, and a few who are away in Europe allegedly are still coding the 4000, 5000, 6000, but not for long..so ya got a fractured inexperienced dying coo*lsat camp! |

Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 9814 Registered: Jun-06 | LK: since you want to keep on interrupting and spreading false information, here is the run down on the C00LSAT story. Now I suggest you go and take your medication and hibernate under the waters of Key largo. Some C00LSAT 4-5-6K Info -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A few things you need know about the C00LSAT receivers: The CS 4000-6000 were designed and built by a company called hihtek. Freetech the US importer, branded these receivers C00LSAT. But hightec and freetech had a falling out. Thus when the time came for new receivers, free tech went to someone else. The company that makes the Ariza extreme were the ones they went to for the 8000 and 8100. They went to the same company that produces the Captain receivers for the 7000. The 4,5 and 6000 were made by a Korean company called Jinhightek Corp. If you google them and go to their website and hit English at the top, you'll see them listed. And on their website they are called C00LSAT. Freetech or their affiliates did have a falling out and CS did go to a different manufacturer. The CS4000,5000 & 6000 are discontinued and C00LSAT is no longer having STB's made at that factory. Somewhere near that factory in Korea are the coders writing software for those STB's. I don't know what the relationship is between the old factory and C00LSAT, but I believe that the availability of this 3rd-party-software will not continue forever. The new boxes, such as the CS6100,7100, 8100 are made at a different factory, with different components, different engineering, and with a different team of coders. These are current models, from a factory that still is doing business with C00LSAT, so it is in their best interest to write 3rd-party-software. The only way it keeps working is for the manufacturers to keep selling STB's. Hence, new models. And in this case, a new factory. So when the day comes when the coders aren't being supported for the CS4000,5000, and 6000, the bins will be gone, and that'll be it....unless other coders like jvvh who, are working on modding the 6100 and other CS bins for the 5000 and 6000...chancysand is not into converting C00LSAT receivers or modding the newer 6100 fixs for the 6000 or older receivers.. The original Norw Group (C00LSAT coders), left about 1 year ago to Captain and Ariza, and left C00LSAT with no coders, and a new inexperienced Norw Group since then....thats why you have seen a huge decline in C00LSAT support...I myself posted this about a year ago, and recommended people to get rid of their C00LSATs then... ----------------------------------------------------------- |
