New Access Cards from Direct TV
|
New member Username: HomersPost Number: 1 Registered: Mar-04 | I received a set of new receiver access cards from Direct TV and was told to replace all the old access cards with the new ones. Why are they doing this? What happens if I don't replace the old ones? |

You are Stupid Unregistered guest | Free Direct TV, why in the H*ll are you telling this to ppl, everyone already knows that they can get a free 1,2,3,4 room set up with a 1 year subscribtion..Geezzz what a Joke |
|
Unregistered guest | Stupid must be a DTV employee. The jokes on you...Geeez! Everybody knows rooms 2,3,4 are another 4.99 a month each added to your bill and 15.85 processing fee up front.So much for 29.99 and free. Now it's up to 44.96 a month plus the lost 15.85, don't forget uncle sam getting his cut too. Now I'm bound to having to keep this for a whole year or they will hit me another 150.00. Now the free install has accumalated hardware not covered under the free installation deal that hit me another 56.00. What turned out to be free and 29.99 a month has now hit my finances with hidden financial nightmare. I had more for the buck with cable and no year contracts and I can have channels that I watch. Not a bunch of music channels with a few good ones. I say buy your own system...their very cheap in lots of stores, get the tuner and program card available all over the net. Now you have it ALL with no time agreements and FREE.You may have to play the card game every few years. I have locals that reprogram my card for me when they figure out a way to block it cheap and it takes them a long time to crack. BEWARE...DON'T GET SUCKED INTO THIS FREE TRAP! |

david Gragg Unregistered guest | I am really confused after reading all of these posts. I am sorry to bother you with a basic question, but I just purchased a house with a DTV dish on the roof. I am looking to receiving satellite siganls. Can I just purchase the reciever and a card and be able to watch programs? Also, what card would I have to get? If I were to get a card that descrambles signals, would I still need to subscribe for service. Thank you so much for your help. |
|
spidey Unregistered guest | david gragg,to answer ur 1st question u just cant watch tv by just getting a card and reciever, these new p4 p5 cards marry to the 1st reciever it is activated in. i will suggest to u to call dtv and sign up for one yr. and just get the minimum package the hack for these new cards is out people r just trying to make some quick money before everyone has it. plus u get free card sat dish and reciever. this may not be what u want to hear but even if the hack comes out u dont know how long it will last. it will take time to iron out all the kinks out of the new hack. but if u have dtv activated for a yr at least u will have piece of mind cause u can still watch tv. hope dis helps!! |

carloc1dbz Unregistered guest | Hello friends I have a question. WHat is all this talk about free channels with a card. Could someone explain this to me. COud I really get all the movie channels for free and stuff. I just got direct TV last month and there is nothing on. I want to watch some movies or something. How do I get these cards or how do they work. Please sombody help. carlosc1dbz@yahoo.com |
|
dublatime Unregistered guest | carloc - That was the case with the old Hu card, but since that card was swapped with the new P4 and P5 card about 2 months ago their is no public hack to recive wide open dave tv. |
|
nail Unregistered guest | this bull. direct tv could nt have it this locked down, could they? there has to be an answer, som-1 must know how to program these new cards. what about finding som-1 who is paying for full service. then getting a smart card reader/ writer and reading their card the programing yours. or did i just explain the old version? |
|
nail Unregistered guest | ok..google......check out dss-cards.net they seem to spell it out pretty good. So if som-1 wants to figure out if they have any worthy products and post, i think it would help quite a few people. I believe there offering a system for free satelite but it won't pick up direct tv. it can get dish and others, i think. |

Bronze Member Username: TazspinPost Number: 68 Registered: May-04 | Just because I'm bored I will tackle this yes dtv can and does have thier card locked down that good and yes there are a lot of free to air (sattelite) systems that can be programed to recieve dishnetwork and Bev and also a smart card reader can not read a subscribed p4, p5-d1 card (because of security measures that are incorporated in the card much like a regular card reader writer couldn't program the hu card we needed a special loader using an atmel chip with the right flash) so we can't simply read a subscribed card and use that info |

peaches_1952 Unregistered guest | Well after reading some of this FREE stuff I have to respond. I DO work for Direct tv and nothing is FREE. It's true you pay $4.99 a month for any extra reciever you have. Plus whatever programing you want. And it's not cheap! I pay over $80.00 a month and only have 2 recievers. Also if you don't know already Direct TV has just released the P11 card. We are replacing all the old P4 cards. The higher the number the less chance you have of hacking. This I am sure of. So good luck on the free stuff. Just DON'T get ripped off! |
|
casey jones Unregistered guest | P11 card...LOL...thats funny...some people's children...guess they skipped P6-10...oh no,I forgot about the "alleged" P6 GOLD card is next..DTV must have skipped the P7-10 and is going right to the P11...hell,why not make it a P99 and go real high,since the higher the better for DTV as U stated....and if U work for DTV,but visit DTV hack sites,AND still pay over $80.00 a month,I would change occupations or get smarter.. |

Unregistered guest | Thought i'd go to direct tv, had it installed free (NOT) today, they would put it on my trailer or my electric pole, so there was an addtional installation fee (useally $100) but the guy gave us a break, RIGHT, and put a pole in the ground for ONLY $50. It was offer through verison, that charged $14 for processing, and credit check, if i didn't pass i would pay verison the $50 as a prepayment. Guess i passed. But when we call to acess the dish, direct tv said the did there own background check and i have to cough up the $50 to them, not verison. After arguing several times on the phone, i got pissed and told them to cancell it all. Guess what? They told me i CAN'T cancel becuase i haven't activated it yet. Once i pay the activation fee,THEN i can cancel. OF COURSE, there is the matter of a $150 early cancelation fee. I told then i ain't paying a dime, and where would they like for me to drop they're recievers off at. They said the don't want them becuse they were installed for 1 hour, that they now belong to me. Yes, this all came with a year contract and $5 for the extra reciever (they offered 3 free ( HA ). direct tv is nothing short of a ripoff scam. If anyone can program a p5 card, i'd love to stick it right back to direct tv. I'm glad i was smart enough not to turn in my cable box. I hooked it back in. Time Warner (may) be a few dollars more, but atleast i didn't feel screwed when they installed it three years ago. Guess you get what you pay for..........so be ware!!!!!! |
|
casey jones Unregistered guest | U need to deal with Verizon,not DTV,to return your receivers and cancel the contract...U actually never had a contract with DTV...I have a bud who had a very similiar situation and was refunded by Verizon.. |

WaIter Brown Unregistered guest | I am figuring there are a lot of people with direct tv recievers, that they are using as paper weights, who wish they had dishnet recievers. Now instead of trying to hack the p4 or p5 would it note be better to try and find a way to convert the direct tv receiver to a dishnet receiver. They do pretty much the same job, and I can't help but to feel it would be a process of clearing out the direct tv program and installing the dishnet program. Lets get everyone redirecting their energy here before the NFL season starts. |

Unregistered guest | My Apartment complex only offers the DTV. They don't even have comcast or time warner or anything else. They just have DTV thru this SBC (Satellite Broadcasting Corporation) They say I have to pay extra $10 for using SBC ( I guess it is the big satellite dish for the whole apt complex). They also require 1 year contract... I think they are bullshit. Is there anyway I can just install DishNetwork or DTV without going thru this bullshit SBC? or Is there anyway for me to just get Reciever and Card for Dish Network or something to get free cable of all the movies and so on? Please help me. My email address is paikmike77@hotmail.com |

DirecTVguy Unregistered guest | Can a DTV satallite antenna be used for Dishent receiver? Thanks! email me if you can help me with what to buy! daymjr2000@yahoo.com |
|
fido Unregistered guest | The actual ROOF dish doesn't matter.DTV roof dish will work with Dishnetwork and vice versa.Just the alignment is different. You MUST have a DTV receiver and cards to get DTV and a Dish (usually echostar)receiver and cards to get dishnetwork. |
|
DinPRAZ Unregistered guest | I moved into a house with a dish and one receiver set up. I want other rooms to have tv as well; can I buy a receiver and card on my own or do I have to go through the company and pay like $$$ more? Thanks |
|
fido Unregistered guest | IF Dish no,If DTV,yes.You need to give more info.Depends if you want different channels on the other receivers,or just the same throughout the house! |
|
DinPRAZ Unregistered guest | DTV, any channels I can get - basic cable is fine. We have one DTV receiver and its all set up... just want tv setup in different rooms. Thanks |
|
fido Unregistered guest | You really need to explain some minor details.Is this a subscription you are paying for?If NO,then you will lose them soon.The P4/5 DTV card is not hacked so you can't hack it or get additional channels,but can hack DISH,if U want more. If you want the same channels on another IRD AT SAME TIME,then run a splitter. If you want same,but different channels,so you don't have all the same channels all at once on each IRD,then you can't do anything,unless you know how to hack DISH and reprogram every card with IRD. You need to start READING before asking basic 101 questions! |
|
macdaddy Unregistered guest | Is there anyway to get rid of a full access card. Meaning when you do not allow the phone line and you have a b unch of ordered stuff on the card, is there a way to erase that so you can keep ordering without allowing a phone call from your box. |

New member Username: Dish_sucksPost Number: 1 Registered: Oct-04 | Recently we moved out to the country and wew do not have cable in our area. Anyway, here is my question, the house we purchased has a direct tv 3 LNB dish on the roof. The previous owner left us with 2 receivers for the direct tv system with the cards, and also 2 dish network receivers. I can not handle the tv anylonger with only having an antenna. REALITY TV SUCKS!!!! So I was wondering if there was anything that I could get off of wither of these recveivers for free. I am not fussy, I guess I would even be happy watching the shopping channel as long as it was clear. I sure miss Comcast! Also, I think I read it somewhere but just to be for sure, will the dish receivers work on the direct tv triple dish? Thanks, Jerry |

Sakapfet Unregistered guest | I've just moved and found an house w/DishNetwork and receivers. I would like to use but don't know much about Dish. Pls help |
|
the real applebee Unregistered guest | Many good websites with helpful info in their forums and chat..You will need to do VERY much reading and learning,and spend about $100 for programmer etc..here is just 1 very good site, |
|
workarounddavid Unregistered guest | Macdaddy, sure, you can get rid of a full access card, no problem. All you need to do is perform a receiver upgrade (ie, call DTV to activate your new receiver, cancel out your existing receiver, and then use a sizzors on your existing card). DTV doesn't check out a cancel'd recevier's card. Reasons for upgrade -- you can say the receiver died, or you can upgrade to TIVO, or you can just say you wanted the features of an upgraded unit. Very important, if you do this, be sure you destroy your old card -- the old card must never see the inside of another receiver, ever, not even for a minute -- or you'll be screwed, big time. |
|
Anonymous | So I could order NFL Sunday Ticket & PPV movies on DTV, not hook up my phone line, then just buy and activate a new card without ever being charged for the things I ordered? |
|
Most_likely_you_can Unregistered guest | Probably. But it's safer to do it on the back-side, just in case. I fill the cards up after I cancel the receiver, just to make sure they don't come back at me and ask for the card when I call to cancel. The activation will hold for about 45 days on a cancelled card before the tiers expire (with the proper use of a no-745). I don't know DAVEs policy, but I cancel'd two receivers cards without them ever asking to check the PPVs. If you have guts, you can fill them first, then cancel - but doing that is a little risky. |
|
the real applebee Unregistered guest | No way on the Sunday Ticket!...that has nothing to do with the phone or activating a new card...once U order it,U pay for it! and PPV's, U only get 4 freebies with newer receivers and no phone line...U can't keep calling DTV and activating new cards which cost $20 each...hell,its cheaper to pay for the 4 movies than ordering and activating new cards evry week...lol...and DTV will NOT keep activating new cards for U every time U fill up the PPV's on your card... |
|
Most_likely_you_can Unregistered guest | With a P4 and a P5, I get 25 slots and a $200 limit. Used to be $350, but they recently lowered it to $200, most likely due to the work-a-rounds. Which new receivers are you talking about. No way only 4 slots. That would infringe on legtitmate ppv users in a big way, and cost DAVE lots of revenue. Anyway, the original question was, I have a full PPV card, how do I get rid of it? You get rid of it by upgrading to a TIVO, a new receiver, or calling and claiming an equipment failure. But I agree, as to hacking DTV, this is definetly NOT the way. There are better, more efficient work-a-rounds. |
|
the real applebee Unregistered guest | ALL NEWER DTV RECEIVERS (PAST 6 MONTHS) WILL ONLY RECEIVE 4 PPV'S WITH PHONE UNPLUGGED,THEN X733!...ONLY OLDER IRD'S WILL GET UP TO 25! LEGITIMATE USERS ARE NOT "INFRINGED" CAUSE THEY ARE SUPPOSE TO HAVE PHONE PLUGGED IN!...AND I AM A LEGITIMATE USER WHO ONLY GOT 4 PPVS WITH RCA,HUGHES,PHILIPS,AND SONY NEWER IRDS..AND ITS NOT JUST ME BUT ALL LEGITIMATE USERS WITH NEWERE IRDS'..AND MANY POSTS FROM MANY SITES HAVE ALL STATED THE SAME EXPERIENCES WITH NEWER IRD'S,THIS IS NOT A NEWS FLASH.. BTW..U CANNOT "WIPE" PPV'S ON A P4/5...ONLY ORDER A NEW CARD AND ACTIVATE IT WHEN ITS FULL...AND THAT IS RIDICULOUS..DTV WILL NOT ALLOW THAT,EXCEPT MAYBE ONCE FOR A "LOST" CARD BS STORY,OR BOUGHT A DIFFERENT RECEIVER STORY.. |

Anonymous | my grandaughter was playing with my tv, we have direct tv, and she hit the order button on some movies and we have never been billed for them. I have not had my phone line plugged in for over 2 years. Why am I not charged for this? Will they find out these were ordered. It has been over 5 months. Also, I have never put the new card in that was sent to me and our cable is still working fine, what is the new card for? |
|
key l;argo Unregistered guest | Just what card are U using?...what does it look like and say on front...numbers on back?.... U will not be billed,unless U plug the phone line in... But somethings are very fishy about your post..nice try,but if your phone line has been unplugged for over 2 years,U would definitely NOT to be able to "order" PPV by hitting ANY buttons on remote/TV...after 30-55 days when then phone line is unplugged,DTV lowers your spending limit to .01 cent,and U get a "call extension 731,732,733",on ALL your PPV channels which disables the "ordering" capability,unless U order online...and ALL old P3/HU/Football cards have been blacklisted (call x745) within 60 days after DTV mailed you the newer P4/D1 aka P5 replacement card therefore disabling your old cards and requiring use of a new replacement card.. U might have some IRISH luck,but DTV is not that disorganized to make 2 MAJOR mistakes that U say exist with your DTV account.. |

key largo Unregistered guest | Now is not really a great time to begin this hobby...Directv (DTV-Dave) changed cards in April to a new P4/5 card that has not been hacked yrt,and therefore NOT programmable..Dishnetwork (Dish-Charlie)will be changing to Nagra 2 which is a new stream/card within the year and that Nagra 2 has not been hacked and may never be too..best thing to do now is share a DTV subscription with someone that subscribes ...also pick up a few P4/5 cards from a garage sale or newspaper or someplace,as they are only $20-25, very cheap right now,just in case the P4/P5 does get hacked.. Cannot ever get caught,if U keep phone lines unplugged and your mouth shut...1 bid is enough,low profile and common sense prevails.... |

The Observer Unregistered guest | Regional News: Boston | D.C.| New York | Silicon ValleyMore Tech News:Newslinx internetnews.comBusiness Internet Daily InternetNews Business Report Boston News DC News NY News SiliconValley News •DoJ: We Want to Read Your E-Mail •RIAA Trains Anti-Piracy Guns on Universities •FBI's Trilogy Program Draws Senate Ire •Survey: Consumers Oppose Anti-Piracy Laws •Audit Critical of FBI's IT Management February 11, 2003 FBI, DOJ Crack Satellite Piracy Ring By Thor Olavsrud Five people were taken into custody by the FBI Tuesday morning as part of a complex sting operation. The bureau's Computer Crimes Section in the Central District of California, said it targeted hackers allegedly developing and distributing software and hardware for pirating satellite television signals. Tuesday's arrests bring the operation's total tally to 17 people across 7 states, with a number of the accused indicted for violating the anti-decryption provisions of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) (define). The indictments mark the first time the controversial DMCA has been used in the Central District of California, and only the second time that a grand jury in the U.S. has issued an indictment under the statute. Other charges issued including manufacturing a device for the purpose of stealing satellite signals, and conspiracy. All three counts carry a maximum possible sentence of five years in a federal prison. The first two charges each carry a potential fine of $500,000, while the conspiracy count carries a maximum fine of $250,000. The arrests were part of a yearlong investigation called "Operation Decrypt," which uncovered an alleged ring of hackers that used secret online chat rooms to exchange data and techniques to circumvent the security of Hughes Electronics unit DirecTV and EchoStar Communications' (Quote, Chart) DISH Network. "This case demonstrates our commitment to identifying and prosecuting sophisticated computer hackers who steal the intellectual property of others for their own economic benefit," said United States Attorney Deborah W. Yang. "No matter how sophisticated the criminals are, we will uncover the devices they create and the strategies they use to steal the lifeblood of the business community." Yang said the alleged pirates caused millions of dollars in losses to DirecTV and DISH Network, as well as NDS and NagraStar, developers and suppliers of proprietary encryption and smart card technology for DirecTV and DISH Network respectively. Additionally, Yang said the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) loses millions of dollars every year in unpaid royalties when satellite programming is stolen. One of the accused, software and hardware developer Randyl Walter, 43, of West Los Angeles, pleaded guilty on Dec. 18, 2002, to manufacturing satellite signal decryption devices and also admitted to causing more than $14.8 million in losses to satellite companies. Among those charged with violating the DMCA are: Chad Fontenot, 26, of Richmond, Kentucky, arrested Tuesday morning on charges of conspiracy, satellite signal theft and violating the DMCA for designing and manufacturing hardware devices. Fontenot, a software and hardware developer who was known by the screen names "FreeTV" and "FreeTV2," was indicted on Jan. 23, 2003, but the losses caused by his alleged activities have not yet been determined. Jason Hughes, 19, of Mocksville, North Carolina, who has agreed to plead guilty to violating the DMCA for developing and distributing software designed to circumvent smart cards for DirecTV. Hughes, a software developer who was arrested Tuesday morning, said he made $50,000 selling his software to individuals in Canada. Edward Vanderziel, 35, of Ontario, California, was indicted on Jan. 23, 2003, on charges of conspiracy, manufacturing signal theft devices and violating the DMCA. Losses caused by Vanderziel's alleged activities remain undetermined. Vanderziel is a software developer who allegedly sold monthly subscriptions for software code for circumventing DirecTV's conditional access technologies Michael Whitehead, 37, of Boca Raton, Florida, indicted on Jan. 23, 2003, on charges of conspiracy, manufacturing satellite signal theft devices and violating the DMCA for his alleged nationwide distribution of devices for circumventing the conditional access technologies in smart cards. Losses caused by Whitehead's alleged activities remain undetermined. Peter DeForest, 30, of Seadrift, Texas, indicted on Jan. 30, 2003, on charges of manufacturing satellite signal theft devices and charges under the DMCA for manufacturing "unloopers" which are used to circumvent smart card technology. Linh Ly, 38, of Rosemead, California, who agreed Tuesday to plead guilty to violating the DMCA and distributing decryption hardware that caused a loss of $561,507.48. Richard Seamans, 52, of Chino Hills, California, who was indicted on Jan. 30, 2003 on charges of violating the DMCA and distributing decryption devices. Others arrested in Operation Decrypt include: Software developer Daniel Wilson, 33, of Houston, who has plead guilty to manufacturing satellite signal theft devices. Wilson developed freeware for circumventing conditional access technologies that was widely distributed on the Internet. Stephen Thornton, 36, of Redondo Beach, California, 36, who has plead guilty to developing satellite signal theft devices by writing software to circumvent smart card technology. Christopher Humbert, 20, of Terre Haute, Indiana, who has plead guilty to creating software code used to circumvent smart card technology. Gary Bumgardner, 46, of Kernersville, North Carolina, who has plead guilty to manufacturing and distributing satellite signal theft devices including hacked access cards. Bumgardner admitted his actions lead to a loss of $68,732.16. Thomas Sprink, 41, of Cocoa, Florida, who has plead guilty for selling hardware devices. Sprink admitted to causing a loss of $24,547.20. Dennis Megarry, 39, of Ostrander, Ohio, who was arrested Tuesday morning based on a criminal complaint filed against him for distributing illegal hardware devices. Robert Walton, 37, of Temple City, California, who was arrested Tuesday morning on charges of conspiracy and manufacturing satellite signal devices. Thomas Emerick, 33, of Ontario, California, who has plead guilty to distributing decryption devices and reprogramming smart cards, and has admitted to causing $70,000 in loss to the satellite companies. Joseph Bolosky, 30, of Panorama City, California, who has agreed to plead guilty to charges of manufacturing decryption devices and admitted causing a loss of $245,472.00. Yang said Tuesday that Operation Decrypt is an ongoing investigation being handled by the Cyber Crimes Squad in the FBI's Los Angeles Field Office, and is part of the Attorney General's Computer Hacking and Intellectual Property program. "There is definitely a strong possibility of others getting charged in the future," a spokesman for Yang told internetnews.com. Business Archives Please make any comments you have. It seems the satellite people can over charge repeatedly and not deliver what they charged for and the DOJ looks the other way but when you reverse the rolls oh! boy watch out. I say keep taking them down! They ruined my credit and even after I proved it; the Credit Card Company (CCC) guys said is was past the 6 months allowed to contest fraud billing by these guys, it was the CCC guys in conjunction with the Sat. creeps that caused the delay seemingly protecting these Satellite cons and their phoney free plans and discount cupon crap. Good work I say keep getting them! Take the fraud ridden thieves down! |

HHHHHHH Unregistered guest | Hey, I don't know anything about Direct TV but I have Dish Network and because Dish Network won't be showing CRICKET Matches on pay per view sports, I'm thinking if I can get Direct TV....Is it like I need get a Direct TV receiver and an access card or is there anyway to serve your purpose using your Dish Network receiver??? And also can we use the same antennas of Dish Network??? |
|
largo key Unregistered guest | To get Directv (DTV),U need a directv receiver and card...the roof dish antenna doesn't matter,as long as it aligned correctly..DTV cannot be hacked,so U must subscribe...DTV will give U all new hardware and install for free (including roof dish),if U have never subscribed before..cheaper monthly bill, if U have a bud who U can share a subscription with.. |
|
HHHHHHH Unregistered guest | I don't know but I know one person who has Direct TV here in Canada....And Direct TV is not offered here, so he must have hacked it someway |
|
Hmmmmm Unregistered guest | those are subbed cards....when they stop paying...you go down |
|
largo key Unregistered guest | Yes,its either a SHARED DTV subscription with a legit subscriber in the US somewhere in the chain....or a web site that subscribes for you,but usually charges you BIG money with no or very limited PPV's, for a very short period of time..but its NOT a P4/5 DTV hack! |

drakst Unregistered guest | I am using this medium and any other medium that I can find in an effort to warn people of a Direct TV scam. Has anyone else had this problem? Direct TV people called me asking, me to switch from cable to direct satellite TV. They promised to send me a surround TV entertainment system after I stay with them for a 5-6 month period. Well I did and when I went to redeem this promotion after 7 months, they told me that I sent in my request early( although I waited 8 months) and we did not completely fill out the entire form to redeem the offer ( I know that all lines were filled out) And because they claim we did not follow their rules to redeem this promotion, that the deal was now null and void! Is this legal? Has this happen to anyone else?? with either [link removed] |

Anonymous | if you have a p5 card already programmed to get all channels can you put it in your directtv receiver and use it..i got the card from a friend who pays for it all but im not sure what to do. if i put the card in will it erase if i choose to go to system setup and choose the option to prepare a new card. or what else can i do ..help plese. |
|
happy new year Unregistered guest | Give it back to him,you can't use it and will only very possibly damage it,especially if you select"install new card".The card has already been "married" to the receiver it was originally placed in,and therefore is now useless in any other receiver. |

Finish 24 Unregistered guest | Believe me or don't - I don't care. I'm just bored at work and need something to do. I'm a Technical Tier 2 EC for DirecTV. Of course, I'm not even supposed to web surfing while working, but it's a slow day. For those who care, yes, there is a P4/5 hack. Whoop de do. Everyone saw it comming. Hell, the only reason why it was so much harder to crack (besides the several million dollars spent to make it hard to hack) was the fact that the company who previously engineered and manufactured the access cards for us (NDS Ltd.) was selling secrets on how to hack them. We're making our own cards now, of course, but they're just as hackable. There is easier way for free DTV, tho. An EC like myself can authorize or disconnect any service on any access card, and adjust pricing. Hell, there's not a DTV board meber who doesn't have every channel, 24/7, through a legit service. We even have a few here at work, for troubleshooting purposes. If you're already so determined to get free DTV, just make a friend on the inside. Finish24@aol.com |

dss_curious Unregistered guest | I'm interested in what equipment is needed to read an access card. I don't want to do anything illegal, just very curious. |

largo key Unregistered guest | Knee Grow/negro...actually,that is one of the few things we can do with the P4/5 card,read it!...not a full dump,but a good valid partial read with camID,card status and PPV slots available..and all that is needed is your old HU loader flashed to UL4S and a winexplorer script (P4-D1 UL4S card checker)....there is no fix,but a partial read is easily performed...a zanex might chill U out a bit,instead of bashing everyone from the pope to the negro with your threats,comments,and cheap language....I agree with U on 1 thing,anyone who buys ANY P4/5 hack now deserves to lose their money....they all been warned enough times.. |

Top Rate Technician Unregistered guest | Knee Grow I laugh at you. Thier is no comment low enough to describe you. You prove a point very well. The Smarter they act the dummer they are. Get a life and seek some professional help. As for the rest of you just pay for your service and shut up. I am a former installer of Direct Tv and most of you customers cheated me out of my time and material. You want me to run over 120 feet of cable. (I used the good stuff) And when I asked for you to pay for the additional install, (Direct Tv only allows 120 feet read the fine print), you cry and threaten to cancel the order so I end up eating the bill. Its better to go home with twenty dollars than lose 100 or more. I've seen a lot of you people in the midwest, (over a thousand) and most of you still owe me money. Direct Tv (forbid), they will never pay the differance. Thier just in it for the money. On the Bright side Direct Tv offers you the best signal comparred to anything else. I'm sorry if you didn't get a good installer like me. I been out on a lot of repiars where the installer must of been a grade school flunky. I've seen installs where there was only 50 percent signal streagnth I can usally get 90 to 100 easy. And what about the meantally challanged that put the dish on the shingles at the bottom of the roof, in about ten years you will be repiaring a leaky roof. Give the dish a clear line of site, thier is a thing called multipath that will degrade your signal. Reflections from the building are the most common reason. Don't want to waste much more time here. I will be seeing some of you soon. Repiar, recalibrate and etc. Pay me now or pay me later. Don't waste you life watching to much tv, the real world is much more exciting. Someone who's life Counts Knee Grow don't bother replieing I won't be back on this sight. But be aware you never know who is a watching. |

Lucky Ed Unregistered guest | Top Rate Technician, I agree with you Knee Grow needs to get a life anyone can say *>?.%##/?,. and pretend that they are all that. I had a system put in about for months ago. I got on this site to see if thier was anything I could do to improve my stuff. got a big place and have 3 recievers and a tvo I never gave it a dang thought as to how much cable was run. my guy put dish on the side of my place at first I had a good signal but not so good now, maybe I call someone like you to fix it. I don't feel right about hacks the big guys at dtv or going to get thier bucks anyway. I don't feel good about takin money from the litle guys like you. hackers just steal from the guy tryin to feed his peeps. Chicks like Knee Grow need **** holes to live in. does Knee Grow = negro or ***** or %%%%%%%%%% |

regularGUy Unregistered guest | My new house has a Dish Network dish on the roof. After reading this whole string I understand I can keep that dish and with the proper recievers run DTV with it. The details of this are what's holding me back. (btw, I want a receiver that can access the Los Angeles channel set - not the channels I'm supposed to get for MY area) Anyway, I have a buddie who has DTV in LA, can I have him add another room to HIS service, then just take THAT reciever and hook it up to my sat dish? |
|
largo key Unregistered guest | Both the DTV and Dish roof dish can be used with either..they work with both Dishnetwork or DTV...its not the receiver that allows the DTV locals,its the card and the "locals byte" and zipcode that are programmed into the card that determine which local channels U get...and ONLY DTV can program these cards now,so U would need a DTV subscription,which U would ONLY get the locals for your zipcode area,if U subscribed yourself.. As far as sharing a DTV subscription with your bud in LA,yes U can do that exactly as U asked (get new card from DTV,put in receiver,call DTV to activate,mail U the receiver with the same married activated new card),BUT U will NOT get his LA locals..His locals channels listing will appear on your guide,but U will get either other unknown/undetermined channels or none of those channels in your local guide listing area...U will get ALL of his other channels (HBO,premium movie channels,Cnn,tbs,tnn,espn,most national channels) EXCEPT some that are specific to that LA area (ABC,NBC,FOX,CBS and many sports channels will be not available in your area)..BUT, U could receive the ABC,CBS,major networks ONLY if HE (your LA bud) presently receives the 380's channels on his subscription.. |
|
regularGUy Unregistered guest | so what you're saying is, being that my ultimate goal of getting KCAL 9 in my area is pretty much impossible? You see, I want Laker games when they are on KCAL 9, I have looked unto the nba package but being that my ACTUAL location is technically within the KCAL 9 broadcast circle those games would be blacked out - VERY LAME. Also I wanted Direct TV becuase my cable provider's DVR has limited funtionality. So I want DTV HD DVR system. |
|
largo key Unregistered guest | If your bud with DTV subscription gets KCAL9 on his locals and U are close to him,then U will get his locals and KCAL9 also...thats ONLY way U will get the KCAL9. If U want DTV HD DVR or tivo,then U will also need another Dish from DTV...the DISH roof dish will not work!...U will need a triple LNB oval dish aligned properly,and not sure but think so, phone line plugged in to receive the updates...IF phone does need to be plugged in,then forget sharing a subscription with your bud,it would be very risky and stupid! |

ExDirecTV Tech Unregistered guest | I worked for DirecTV for about a month. They do screw their technicains. I was sent to jobs close to 250 miles from my house, install way more crap than I was supposed to (because my team leader said I had to) and pay for all the materials. Technicains only get the dishes, recievers, poles and concrete free. Everything else is paid for by the technician. And I noticed something weird about the job, All the technicians only last for 1 month, then they will be fired. If it wasnt for their channel lineup, I would change over to Dish network. |

LK Unregistered guest | Thats a Bullship story...from one of the idiots here.. |
|
curiousone Unregistered guest | Has anyone tried to figure out what signals are sent to and from Dave over the phone line after a PPV purchase? Then build an emulator for your receiver to communicate with so you can reset your own PPV's, or is the reset command sent via the sat? |
|
LK Unregistered guest | receiver is ONLY a receiver...is does NOT send signals..and the phone line is only the "messenger"...NO phone,no message.. |
|
curiousone Unregistered guest | The receiver sends signals to Dave as to what PPV purchases have been made. Assume you have a subscription. The receiver connects to Dave over the phone line periodically and sends PPV purchase info. The receiver gets a PPV reset command somehow from Dave (either through the phone line when the receiver sends it's PPV purchase update, or, their head-end equipment sends it out and is received via the dish) If the reset command is sent via the phone line during the PPV purchase update then it should be possible to replicate and reset your own receiver. |
|
LK Unregistered guest | curiosone...The receiver SENDS nothing...it only receives!..thats why its called a RECEIVER..its not a transmitter!...PPV's are stored in the receivers memory,and DTV once a month "calls/dials" your receiver and downloads the stored PPV's from its memory...so NO phone,then DTV can't call,and then U get an error message call ext 731,732,733 on your PPV channels and cannot order using the remote now...its very simple..DTV does NOT wipe the PPV's that were purchased (reset as U call it)through the phone line,its done by satellite signal to the CARD,not the receiver or the phone line!...DTV also resets the PPV spending limit,call ext messages,channel package changes etc by SATELLITE signal not phone.. |
|
curiousone Unregistered guest | I just went into the service menu of my receiver where the phone # to Dave's modem is stored as well as info that is needed if the receiver needs to dial 9 to get an outside line. This means the receiver calls Dave, NOT the other way around. In order for Dave to call, my phone would ring and thats not the case. I understand the receiver receives only through the dish, but, sends and/or receives through the phone line. You said that Dave "downloads" the stored PPV info. In order for Dave to download, my receiver has to send the info. The receiver detects the telephone line voltage of 48 volts DC all the time. When the receiver sees this voltage disappear for a preprogrammed amount of time (which is what happens when your phone is off hook during a conversation, it drops to 5VDC) then the receiver assumes the phone line is disconnected and displays the error message forcing you to call in. If Dave wipes the PPV info by sending the signal over the dish there isn't anything you can do, but, if the PPV info only is wiped at the end of the modem transfer, then it should be possible. I understand that the PPV spending limits, messages, channel packages etc are all done by sat. If a person knew when the receiver was going to "call in" you could disconnect your dish so that the only path for data would be the phone and see if the PPV's have been reset. |
|
LK Unregistered guest | well at least you are inquisitive which is good,but sorry you're not understanding this at all..again PPV's are reset via the CARD,not the receiver...obviously U never TESTED the H or HU card and are not familiar with buy bytes,wiping PPV's,cleaning eeproms,G strings, etc.. |
|
curiousone Unregistered guest | If it is only via the card then how can they get the PPV purchases out of the receiver when you take it in to get a different receiver and don't have the card with you. They can reset the PPV's without the card so either they are doing it through the telephone jack, serial jack, or connecting straight to the coax in where the dish connects. |
|
LK Unregistered guest | They are not reseting and wiping the PPV's off the card when U "take it in and get a different receiver",unless they call DTV to send a satellite signal to "wipe" card # which is "married" to receiver# (DTV has records of all cards and married IRD's) .......receiver only stores PPV purchases and past PPV history...don't know where U got this idea that they "wipe/reset your PPV's when U bring your receiver in for a different receiver...no "reset or wipes done at receiver...its done bt satellite to card while card is in its married receiver.. |
|
Anonymous | LK if you read your owners manual, it clearly states that the receiver dials a 1-800 no. once a month. IS THIS NOT CALLED TRANSMITTING |
|
LK Unregistered guest | Actually who calls who isn't the point,maybe I am mistaken about who calls who, but I am 100% positive that PPV's are WIPED-RESET by satellite and NOT phone...curiousone was thinking that the PPV's could be WIPED,IF the WIPE/RESET was done by phone...but its NOT,its done by satellite signal to the CARD...that is how PPV's can be ordered/purchased/received ONLINE with NO phone,and U are NOT billed every month for movies previously ordered,cause the PURCHASES are RECEIVED and WIPED monthly by satellite signal to the CARD..same way H/HU card testers WIPED/RESET the cards when spending limits were maxed out (programmed to the card |

Why_argue Unregistered guest | Guys, the P4 card instructs the receiver to make the phone call when there is an outstanding purchase that hasn't been previously downloaded, it does this at least once within 30 days of the first PPV watched, failure to call out after 30 days of attempting to do so results in the card PPVs going "call 732". When the modem call is made, the P4 card sends the CAM number, slot ID and PPV name via modem, and the receiver marks the PPV on the P4 card as having been downloaded to DTV via modem. At this point, the PPV is still locked on the P4, and not yet reset, although the receiver will no longer try to send that particular PPV info out again. When DTV gets the modem message and the slot ID, they send you the bill, and a signal via satellite to unlock that slot ID on the P4 card. When the slot ID is unlocked, you don't notice anything different (the PPV remains on the "purchased" page), however, once unlocked, the slot can be over-written with another PPV (or the slot info erased) at any time - no digital sigs are required. The modem does nothing in this process except tell DTV to charge the customer for PPV and tell DTV which slot they must unlock via the satellite. Anyway, I'm not sure what you are arguing about, this process is well known, to unlock the slot requires the digital sigs for the P4/P5 card that we don't have, so understanding the modem or the receiver does nothing with regards to getting a P4 hack or the keys required for unlocking the PPV slots. |

LK Unregistered guest | very informative post..as I stated earlier the PPV's are wiped/reset by satellite signal to the CARD..NOT done by the receiver..TY...thats what I've been saying all along to curiousone ..anyone who reads this thread can see there is No arguing with curiousone..I took offense at some others who tried flaming me,and stuck their nose in and offered no info,just childish criticism...

My last response was Mon Feb 7. I have only been on here for a few days now and obviously someone can be impersonated quite easily and likes causing trouble. I had a question about the modem thing, my question was answered by you and "why argue". Before you start freaking out and "flaming" me, as you guys call it, you must have known that anyone can pretend they are someone else on here. I read all the posts prior to asking my question because I didn't see it addressed anywhere. Just so everyone knows, I will not be posting as curiousone again, so if someone does, it isn't me.

Craig Reynolds Unregistered guest | that also happened to me about 4 months ago and one of my receivers is still up and running. |
|
Anonymous | Hello, I do have an account with DTV. I'm currently have 2 receivers legally connected with them. A friend gave me a receiver with a P4 card which I want to add to another room without paying the $5, I know... What 's the best way to add additional receivers to my kids room without going into contractual agreements? |
|
Anonymous | There is no other way.The P4 card you have, will no longer be activated, as of couple weeks back. you will have to order a new P5 20$ and pay the 5$ mth. |

LK Unregistered guest | Depends upon the site U use...many are getting busted for this lately,and then probably turning over their customers names to DTV for prosecution..BE very careful...4 sites got busted 3 days ago..I would find a bud who already subscribes and ask him to "share" his subscription with you...I don't trust any "activation" sites now..and many are scammers,who give U nothing,but take your $$$$...go to www.satscams.com for latest scammer listing and look over their forums too.. |

Anonymous | Like may others here I just moved to a place that already has a dish. When I looked at the wire from the dish, it was cut so I put a new tip on it conected to an active receiver I got from a friend who pays for DTV. And it still didn't work When I try to Auto config. the receiver it say it failed to Detect switch type?? Then after exiting the set up menu it starts searching for sat. signal and nothing happens!!!! What am I doing wrong? I need help. Anyone??? |

MikeinCA Unregistered guest | My friend is going to buy 2 direct tv HD recievers + the service and is only going to use one reciever at his place. Is it possible to hook up his second reciever at my house, buy & hook up an antenna, and use one of his cards at my place? We are just going to split the Directv service bill when it comes in the mail. Any problems with the phone lines or tracking what we are doing? Thanks |

Unregistered guest | Is there a way to upgrade my dtv and get internet as well without having to purchase a new dish. |
|
Dallas Unregistered guest | KJ..Your dish doesn't affect your package upgrade,but might be not suited for DTV's internet (Direcway) service...why do U care,either way U must subscribe to Direcway.. Mike ...sharing DTV subs has been discussed here 1000x ...no problems with tracking,just DO NOT plug in any phone lines,but U will NOT be able (call x731,732,733)to order PPV's using the remote...BUT order PPV's online using the DTV account owners www.directv.com site registration info...then no matter who orders it (that U share with),it'll be broadcast on EVERY TV on the account,no matter where they live.. |
|
thrasher Unregistered guest | you have to pay if you order online |
|
Bosox Unregistered guest | brilliant..as my brilliant neighbor says "unamazable"..I'm starting to be a jerk like kneegrow..BUT with some of these ridiculous questions or replies like above..and the total LACK OF READING here,U tend to wonder why bother helping and say "screw it".. |
|
Unregistered guest | I'm new to all this what do i need to get started and whats the best card you reccomend, and do i need software to keep it updated? Any help is greatly appreciated |
|
Anonymous | hsp,s are getting all the dtv work,they pay there employees $30/install. for you cheap basturds that want free service in other rooms, just mirror off the out to tv port to as many rooms or cribs as youd like, but use only sat spliters.you.ll get the same channel that the reciver is on and wont be paying the $4.99.or try going to the libaray and getting free dvd,s or vhs recordings and quite whinning about dtv costing so much |

knick gar Unregistered guest | you got scammed! you brought something totally useless! |
|
anynomapuss Unregistered guest | Butler, even though what you bought is completely useless, you have conspired to defraud DTV and conspired to violate Federal laws. When DTV closes down getallchannels.com, they will get your name and address, and they will, no doubt, ream you a new a))hole. |

LK Unregistered guest | U can at least drop using your email addy in public...that would be a smart start! NO...its useless..ExtremeHU is long gone,dead,of NO value!...the programmer,well depends on what it is and what smartcard U want to use it with..in your case,I'm sure its useless also,unless U have special smart cards and the correct software for whatever card..there is no more (very soon) programming DTV,Dish,or Bev...so U can't use it for TV smartcards....maybe a Blockbuster card! |
|
butler_kennels Unregistered guest | then what can i do? by a box or something.emailwith some info of what i could do please. thanks so much. |

bob dylan Unregistered guest | how do i use a reciever to get signal? any recamendations on what to get for dish network? |
|
Anonymous | I have a Directv system that was set up for one TV, because that's all I had at the time. Now I have another TV, and I purchased another receiver on ebay that is the same as the original. How in the world do I hook it up? Nothing I've tried has worked yet, and I REALLY don't want to call them and get raped on the cost of installation. |
|
J Roo Unregistered guest | For $20.00 direct tv will send you a card for the receiver you purchased on ebay. Direct tv will charge you $5.oo extra each month on your bill for this receiver, you will also have to agree to keeping service for this receiver for a year from the date you hooked it up. You should have just got it from direct tv when you originally got service, they would have given it to you for free, and the only cost would have been the extra $5.00 per month. If you just want to watch what is on your other tv all you need is a splitter, and you won't need another box hooked up. J Roo |

LK Unregistered guest | If U want different channels on a 2nd receiver and TV ,then U will have to install a 2nd LNB to your roof dish to the 2nd receiver...U must align this LNB correctly,basically aimed same as the first...U can buy a dual LNB ($35) or add another single LNB ($20)..only other opton is have DTV do the install,which I don't believe is that much ($50 approx)....either way U will need a 2nd card ($20) fron DTV and $5 additional per month to activate it,no matter who installs the 2nd LNB....J Roo is correct about just needing a simple splitter if U want BOTH TV's to, receive the same signals and channels at the same time..whats on 1 Tv is also on the 2nd TV.. |
|
fonebook Unregistered guest | Somebody up above mentioned that recievers with HU cards installed can recieve music, but not video programming. Is this true? And if it is, would I be able to pick up a proper used reciever/ dish/LMB setup, insert my old HU card from my valid account (the one I used before DTV sent me a new one a year or two ago), and start jammin'? |
|
LK Unregistered guest | Yes U can use an old DTV receiver,HU card and get music..U can even do that with the old H cards too...the VIDEO packets were stopped with the new cards,not audio.. |
|
MN Unregistered guest | You'll need someone to program one of the old 3Ms on the HU card if you want to get music. Activations don't work, niether will an old sub'd HU card. However, once the 3M is programmed on the HU card, it should work for-ever. |

LK lies Unregistered guest | DirecTV Introduces New Access Card-Rethink TV -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DirecTV has introduced yet another "NEW Access Card" into the mix of things for its Satellite system. This new card is now slowly being placed in new IRDs and as well as being sent out as a replacement card now for other reasons to the end users of their subscriptions. It has only been sent out in a very small portion for now but it is being reported a bigger movement and exchange will take place as we move closer to Christmas 2005 this year. This card was talked about and first showed distribution during the last Superbowl Sunday when DirecTV launched their new add compaign they called "Rethink TV" and along with a new Access Card Logo as well for the company. Even on the DirecTV website they mention they launched the "Rethink TV" campaign and talked of it and the new access card as well. Beyond that DirecTV mentions nothing about a card swap or what this new card hopes to do or if its being done for any possible piracy reasons or other or ??? They leave that area totally in the dark and most likely for good reason in their minds. Now since the VA packets being logged, such as it is and best we can do as it is, don't "Appear" or "Seemed" to change in length we would suggest it is merely a repackaging of their product for the most part. The ATR and all info comes back the same as the older P4/D1 cards info using what we can for software and card readers to gather such internal data. It is also being reported in the "UnderGround" that DirecTV has also fixed some internal "Chip" issues with the release of this new access card and possible future security problems that had been uncovered over the past two years. These so called "Flaws" or "Holes" have been totally "closed, fixed and more" so it is said. But we can't know for sure if their really is any other internal physical changes as of yet but YOU can be assured DirecTV DID more than just put a new paint job on this new access card. If it wasn't for the fact that many DirecTV subscripters already have them in hand and in use, we would otherwise have thought that they were going to be used for the promotion of the upcoming MPEG4 systems that will be coming out later this year full boar. But, MPEG4 doesn't require a new card, but a new flashy logo access card and add compaign does seem to be the thing and logicial for the most part in DirecTV's mindset. I would suggest there is only a small amount of cards out as of yet but they are there and I have seen then too as well and it is happening now. So, in short or maybe the long of it all, DirecTV has made another move to promote its business, push its Satellite system out into a bigger market and most likely no doubt plug some "Holes" they saw or knew of and have made it even itself more " Piracy Proof ", so it seems for now. "Dish" Satellite Systems is in the process of doing the same with its new cards too, so the DSS Testing World for will be getting even tougher soon if much at all as we go down this road. Time will tell as the DSS world as most here know of it, changes and continues to "Shrink". JMHO. |
