    Finds Transponders - No Channels

    I have a Dbox2 (1x) which was working with Andromeda 2 image until it just stopped.

    I can scan and find all transponders but it never finds any channels.

    Even paid for a new tuner from Germany and got it fitted to no avail.

    Any ideas?

      Looks like my signal is zero, line tested by reconnecting VM box back in and FTA channels are present.

      Clock is wrong too...

        Guess you've seen this scenario before!

          Its all heading in the same Dirrection mate
          If you transfer Working Service and bow k s from one to the other
          It should work the Same
          Even back up image of the same chiptype
          This with waiting for time is looking like a Poss tuner Chip fault
          Are you getting free to air on D Box .......Paul

            I don't get anything - this is what prompted me to buy a new tuner board for my dbox which I had to get someone handy with a soldering iron to remove the old tuner and fit the new one!

            The messages I get are the same as before my tuner swap out which makes me wonder if the problem lies elsewhere?

                    I had the same problem with a dbox.
                    I bought another one and abandoned the old one.
                    I was bored one day and got the old box and flashed it with the blade quad image and hey presto all was well.
                    It used to say waiting for time and the clock was stuck at 1.00.
                    Try flashing it again, it worked for me.
                    The box is still running well.
                    Hope this helps.

                        Flashed box with Blade Quad still same problem.

                        How can I increase my SNR value to above 55000?

                          I reflashed the Andromeda 2 1x image and copied the new nagrarom7, deleting the old rom 7, 10 & 11 files.

                          Restarted the emu and rescanned - all channels back and I'm up & running again!
