trouble with 501 programmin

[MovieOhioNut]

hello folks i have a virgin eeprom and new tsop rev 079 trying to get my hard drive and satellite to remarry. I am not getting any hard drive errors on ird. I cant get into the screen to do a check switch test either wont let me in once i do a fresh tsop write and let it stream update then all my ird show is waiting for sat singal for hours on end i am looking for any help that would let me do something new from what i have tried after jtaggin my reciever several times so far thanks movieohionut

If its streaming a software update and the freezing I would check build config
or try a different bin. Are you erasing both tsops and reflashing U7 and eprom

[MovieOhioNut]

when i am jtagging my reciever i am doing a full erase o flash 1 at least 4 times then i do a full flash erase of flash 2 four times then i flash the new tsop for 079 software revision and then i do the virgin eeprom then i disconnect the jtag plug ird back in and attach cable and let it do the stream update i think this is correct but not sure thanks movieohionut

Having the same problem, did the same tyhing you did and still no go. I am at wits end I dont know what else to do. Help.
If you get a response that works please drop me a line

the virgin image you are using , does the BootStrap match your oroginal?
it will marry with wrong bootstrap but wont recieve sat signal

[bud02]

So you have OJ1 jumped when jtaging and you also dont need
vid mod becouse you have DT chips?

[Crazy1_79]

yeah sounds like wrong build config or bootstrap. wrong build config will sometimes work but won't acquire sattelite signal

[yardy00]

Donkk. I did not do anything to the Original. Mili sent it to me and all I do is update it with romcode when the new updates come out. this is the same card and receiver I have been using. How would the bootstrap would have been changed?

[Crazy1_79]

it shouldn't of changed. that would of been the case if perhaps you grabbed a tsop out of the download section and was trying to do something else. sattelite tuner chip has been known to go out of these units making them loose signal. I have 3 of them and knock on wood have not had a issue with any of them. but i have read it happening plenty of times

[yardy00]

what do u suggerst I do to get everything setup properly, knowing I do not have any of th original bootstrap or any such thing?

[Crazy1_79]

well check voltage coming out of sattelite in feed. verify it is around 13-18 volts if the voltage is low there you can conclude the connex chip went out. They can be replaced. I have never done it but have read where others have done it
