Feb 3 and 4 ECM Discussions - Post Here

[Chief]

We've got ECM threads everywhere, so in the interest of pooling our thoughts and resources with as little confusion as possible, please post all Feb 3/4 ECM discussion HERE. Thanks...

[toober]

Thanks Chief. Just wondering if anyone went down on rom3 with nomore64-7? Rom10 with nomore64-7 never flickered here.

[swabbie]

this is a strange one.
I have 6 irds. same tiers, and ppv strings.
2 of them (a 1000 and a 301.10) are running a rom 3 with the latest checksum blocker and have survived both ecms. I was worried about the 1000 since I can't jtag it..but its been hummming fine(same cam id btw).

the other 4 are running rom10, same cam id, (a 301.13,301.10, 2800 and a 3900)..all 4 have been hit by both ecms.

so i figured it was a rom 10 hit only.

[advy007]

3100.010
rom10
mc2.2.9
my own cam id + ppv|event high/low
default dish tier settings.

still going strong at 6:57pm EST.

who knows, maybe i'll get hit in 2 minutes, hopefully not. :P

[truck_driver]

well then is there a good log from the last ecm a couple of hrs ago
I haven't found a good one yet
just old stuff..and those were not right when they were posted
they were to late when they logged them
the ecm is down right now...it was a hit and run again ecm
so I was hopping someone had a good copy
or they don't want it let out yet..so Charlie won't know if we have it or not
so the fixes can be let loose

[bintryin123]

I think it was another hit and run. I'm pretty sure this latest ECM is no longer in the stream. If they keep rolling the ECM's and putting them in and out of the stream, it could be very difficult to program around.

do u have the same digi locks in all?

[2getwired]

>toober i have 64-7 on 4 different cards 2 3's and 2 10's all were non effected. my 5000 never gets hit, the 2 10's[2700&3700] always get it but not today. think i'll stik with the 64-7-how about you

[2getwired]

....or if i get a lil cash i'll try mili's private blocker. no disrespect to mili or his products. we love you man!

[o2world]

I was up for the past 24 hours, but just went down. rebooted, now I'm ok...we'll see how long. 310.010,Magic1

[sukh77]

3 301.13 running rom10 got hit.
1 508 running Atmega spoofing rom10 got hit.

do u have digi lock on the 301.013's and a blocker on the cards

[sukh77]

1 has digi lock. The other 2 don't. Yes offcourse the rom10's have a blocker on them. Why would I not put a blocker on them. Maybe u meant which blocker. Then the answer is checksum.

i dunno, just trying to figure shit out, not trying to offend.
i too have a 301.013(dual tsop) with a lock. i had the nag yesterday, pulled the card and unplugged, then put it back in, and its been working until i heard that there was another one today, so i checked if i had video, i did, so i disconnected the feed. i'm not sure if i should put it in the stream yet. any idea why i would get the ecm, and then i am able to watch 5 min later?
thanks
hillbilly

[sukh77]

I'm not offended. Just making sure u knew to put blocker's on the rom's. Only reason u would run blockerless is if you want charlie to lock u'r card. I don't want that. Except on rom2 they don't require blockers or atmega's or MC.j

You might have a softlock on the ird. IF no hardlock.

[klown]

Here is a C & P from another site. It says that the ecm has something to do with the spending limits. I know very little about ecm's and how they work but decided to pass this on. I put it on my card and have been up for over an hour. And will reply back if I go down.

don't want to sound like a newb, but i asked this question months ago, and i never did get an answer. what is a softlock. i'm pretty sure a hard lock is the digital lock, which i have. can the hard lock change location id? i ask cause when i was hit yesterday, i check the id and it was different. then i took an update(to 205) and it changed again. also, is the blocker u have a public blocker, or private?
thanks for the help.

8 hours and still running with checksumblocker. you right something with spending limits
thanx


rom3, 10, 11 no mater what kind of receiver

[Rainey]

I am up and running with atmegas again after today ECM hit. As it was just a hit and run like yesterday.
Anywys as most of you know by now. This is due to two new op codes in this latest EMM. The atmega will need a updated flash to handle this and the blocker that did not work will need to be updated also.
I had posted this new EMM stream log yesterday shortly after the ECM, in the thred titled "ECM" in this forum.

So we will just need to wait for the corder to come up with a fix. This has nothing to do with the spending limit and has not been pvored it is hitting any PPV string at this time. So you should if you feel the need to be running you will be taking the chance of get hit when every they send the ECM at this time.

I understand that some did not get hit at all, these people were all running plastic with private blocker like Milis blocker. Most of these people had PPV open and were not hit. So if you have this setup you are not affected.

It should only take a few days for the coders to get around this round of attaches, BUT it is being made harder to test and see if the new code works if the ECM is only a hit and run once a day.

What would be good to know at this time is, if you got hit what were you running and did you had a lock what kind was it did it work. I have read that some lock did not work.

Happy testing,
Rainey

A softlock is a software lock. You program the IRD with a softlock. A hardlock is a hardware lock. You add hardware to the IRD.

ok, i get the hard lock. how is the softlock applied to the ird? via the program on the card? is it seperate from the blocker?
thanks

[livnitup731]

My buddy has a 301.010 that had a v3 digilock that I installed. It had made past numerous ecm's. The ecm yesterday blasted through it. I tip my cap, Chuckie.

No. You program it directly to IRD using JKeys.

[sukh77]

Softlock can be applied with flashedit to the tsop image.
It's nothing to do with card. You add a patch to the IRD's tsop bin.
If you're IRD is set to auto update it will be overwritte the softlock when new firmware upgrade is applied to the ird.
Softlock is known to not work on some IRD's. Testing is the only way tol tell.


Do a search for softlock to read up on more info. It's there you might have to go way back. Reading, reading, and more reading. Reading is the game of life.

ok, i know for sure i didn't have a softlock, and even if i did, i took a software update last nite, so it would be gone anyway. thanks for the help and clarification

The ecm got thru the oddcircuits digilock on my 501 long enough to erase the programs on the PVR and freeze the ird. The ird would not autoreset, it was necessary to unlock and reboot. No damage to tsop, no need to jtag.

Have same lock on a 2800, it's still up and running, not sure if it autoreset or if it was not hit at all.

ROM10 with same image and camid on both irds, no ppv, no porn.

[mruk69]

First and last warning, no advertsing on my forums

mili

[swabbie]

do u have the same digi locks in all?

no digilocks at all

[bigcountry]

I have a model 2700 and having the same problem I've seen a couple others have on here I can't Jtag it, its beginning to get annoying. For the time being I've hooked it back up to see if it may reset from the stream?? wishfull thinking!
I'm getting the DCU peek and sometimes it will detect my IRD and when I click save memory it will bring up the progress box and then freeze, while the Jkeys window says reading memory. Anyone elses doing this?

[Trapofmind]

From what I have been reading NOMORE64-7 made it through the ECM. I have 8 IRDs going and they all went down except the one with NOMORE64. Today I have my IRDs up but am having trouble with PPV.

Does anyone have any PPV strings that are working?

[truck_driver]

I had that on one of my plastic rom 3 cards..and it went down
but I did get a new set of blockers and am running them
they are posted on a forum I am a Mod at
and for the ppv string
here is the one I am useing...I made it up this morning..it gets all the ppv's and event right now
and the 2.2.10 MC is working fine right now...have to with for the ECM
to come back to make sure

[Chief]

Thanks, TD... :)
If things run as they have the past two days, we'll know in about 3 hours if we've done any good.

Appreciate the patch.

[truck_driver]

yep sure will
at least we will know if they are rotating the ecm signatures
the first was different then the last...maybe they can come up with more things they can do to screw there own customer...lol

[Trapofmind]

Thanx for the strings, they are working swell. I was hoping we'd have a fix before the UFC tonight, but I suppose I'll just watch it on BEV.

It's funny, I set up a BEV system like 6 months ago and it's always there working when D*SH acts up.

[Ironbird]

just an FYI, but my rom2's have been running fine wide open (all PPV)
hopefully the joy will continue

-=Ironbird=-

[Trapofmind]

Does anyone else have ROM2s that made it through this last ECM? I have one ROM2 that is set-up for BEV, I may switch it.

[metallicadad]

I'm running a rom 2 with a 5000 ird, no problems so far. Keeping my fingers crossed.

[Trapofmind]

I put NOMORE64-7 on and made it though the UFC, which was awesome. Not that that means much since they don't seem to be ECMing right now.

Funny, I am almost looking forward to the next wave....almost.

[EMC510]

I have a blocker that made it through all the latest ecm. I also have try the newest GCB, still get hit.

[mikee]

Is Softerwaew Version 2.2.9 Still Rnning Ok For Magic One Or Do I Need To Use 2.2.10. Having A Hard Time Programming Card.

[mikee]

how come my card won't program. i am trying to proram it using 2.2.10 and it isn't working

it keeps on saying detecting card please remove or reinsert. it never detects it.

[bcub]

Feb 3 ECM knocked out a friends 2800 and we're not able to get it programmed in J-keys. Don't mean to be double posting but since it has to do with the ECm that this thread is about, I just want to ask here if someone can provide help doing a Junk Yard Fix on a 2800.
Sb39 and sb40?

[truck_driver]

yep those are the test pads
but be careful not to short anything else

[monkeyluv]

Has anyone come up with a fix for this ECM yet? or are we going to be fixing the receivers every day @ 5 now?

[zeta44]

I 'exposed' myself the whole morning yesterday (Superbowl day) but could'nt get hit. Cemu, the one that handles the 52 op code, but not the new 51. Strange ! :rolleyes: Then I guess I am not a good tester because I don't watch TV that much, and I don't watch sport.

[bintryin123]

What version of software are you using, moneyluv ? There have been several different ECM's over the last few day, but version 2.2.10 seems to be working well for nearly everyone, at this point. I haven't been hit since I put it on my card, two days ago.

[monkeyluv]

running Atmega, not sure of the software i'm running, is that on the sys info page? how do i change it? and can i in jeepers? or is it when you jtag? Sorry, not familiar with updating software, only firmware using JY or removing SA5 etc.

[jake112]

Has anyone been hit since yesterday????? my 301.10 rom 3 is up and going but I dont know if I should remove the feed before I go to work??

[truck_driver]

not every one was hit
I am still running with rom 3 and 10 and MC1 cards
it seems that on the mc 2.2.10 runs fine if you leave the defaults
and there are blockers for the rom cards that are working just fine

[monkeyluv]

Can anyone verify that there is any Atmega files that are working? i've heard of one file working ok but don't know for sure whether it got through the ECM's yesterday.

[sukh77]

Mine is Atmega is working fine since I reprogrammed last night. Emulating rom3 pfg created with TCFD. I was emulating rom10 before last night changed it to rom3. On other IRD's just reprogrammed cards and havn't had a problem.

[cosy]

from las two days running with ppv and latest GCSB no mather what type of rom (3,10,11) even thru sunday hit.

rom 2 is running wide open from last 7 months on my receiver. works great.not even touch by last ecm.

So just by re-programming my Atmega in ROM3 will do the trick? I normally use Jeepers, is this OK. Do you have a working PFG? I would greatly appreciate if anyone could share a PFG that is working with Atmega. Thanks guys. :)

Are using the MC2 card? I have a model 3000 with a rom2 card but I have not been able to get MC2 to work with it.

I just had a change of heart, didn't want to run rom10 emulation on the Atmega. You can keep using it if it works for u. I created the pfg with TCFD, incase u missed this part in the previous post.

[scottwa37]

I am having a problem flashing my original bin files back on the reciever. I have a 301.010. The unit was working until I got ecm this weekend. I get an error using J-Keys. The error is (Error performing flash write request). When ok that, if give a second error. (Error programming flash offset x1fe00002). The Id on the receiver was 00000001. I have not had this problem before.
