two skybox f4 issues

[brendanmcerlean]

hi all i got the following 2 issues with skybox f4

1) scambled stations..... if i spend a long period of time on a FTA channel and back to a scrambled station it does not clear....a reboot of the box and it clears again.

2) loading new images.... i downloaded 3 different images from skybox.cc and tried to flash, can pick the image .abs on the box and start the process... but once it gets to 100% it says file "mismatch!"


all help would be much appreciated

I wouldn't know if yours is a clone but some basic checks may tell a tale.

Has the remote control got a gold quality control sticker on the back?

Has it got Skybox moulded into the plastic behind the Battery cover?

no stamp or sticker.... so a clone?

i thought the original firmware would brick it, not show an error file mismatch??

Error mismatch is common when you are using OEM firmware on a clone box and vice versa
