    Hopper 3 keeps starting up with black screen/no sound.

    I stopped getting email updates on this thread I started, so I had no idea there were so many posts still going. I've attached the pics you were talking about. Thanks for the help!

    Hopper 3 keeps starting up with black screen/no sound.

    While I have all you smart people here, could you perhaps tell me what kind of other external hard drive I could buy to transfer all my stuff over to & perhaps not have to use with dish in the future. I have just about every single great movie and series on my external drive but it's got to be...

    Hopper 3 keeps starting up with black screen/no sound.

    I'll be damned, in all the years I've had dish, I've never heard to turn the hopper off along with TV when I'm done with it. I will start doing that. Thank you!

    Hopper 3 keeps starting up with black screen/no sound.

    I shut the TV off, but not the hopper. Although in the settings it's set to do a 2am reset every night

    Hopper 3 keeps starting up with black screen/no sound.

    It's set to update at 2am. I manually updated it this morning. I can't find where to see what the version number is..

    Hopper 3 keeps starting up with black screen/no sound.

    I'm not clear on when you say "set to never go into standby mode". I don't understand what that means. Please bear with me, I recently had a "mini-stroke", so my brain is not working that great. The hopper has started up find for the last 4 days in a row. I checked for an update today and it...

    Hopper 3 keeps starting up with black screen/no sound.

    So, as the title says, the past 3 days, when I turn my TV on (LG), the screen goes black, I have no sound. I can get into the TV interface, so I know it's not the TV. I can bring the dish guide up and see it, but no channel will come in until I reboot the my Hopper 3. Once I reboot (push red...

    New Software: Hopper Duo (U990), Hopper 1 (....), Hopper 2 (....), Hopper 3 (....), Wally (....)

    So, I have a strange situation going on with my hopper 3. I had dish move me about a month ago, everything was fine. I told him I was having a new roof put on and he said they would have to come out and realign the dish, which was fine. I had the roof put on, roofers put dish back up but of...

    Anyone able to pair a dish remote with a sony tv (for tv apps)?

    Well, I thought I had it. Got the menu button on the Dish remote to open the apps, got the right arrow to go right. Then I went ahead and tried to teach it the select button, left, up, down. And now I can't even use the menu to bring anything up. Maybe there's a limit on how many things you can...

    Anyone able to pair a dish remote with a sony tv (for tv apps)?

    Just bought a Sony 49x900f TV yesterday and was really hoping I could get my dish remote to pair with the TV completely. I am able to pair it enough to get into the apps page, but can't use arrows on dish remote to scroll through apps. Was really hoping to be able to use just one dang remote...

    Can anything be done with all our stuff on the External hard drive?

    I know Dish is going down eventually and frankly we're so sick of them, it would be fine with us. The worst thing is, I've spent years collecting every good movie & series on my WD External hard drive. Has anyone found a way to put their stuff onto some other device or some other way of saving...

    Wireless Joey Connection Issues

    I'm just about ready to throw my damn Joey through a window! It constantly drops connection, the screen goes black randomly with no rhyme or reason (and I have to reboot it). I absolutely hate the damn 1am reboot. And how do you order another access point and what does that even mean?

    no choice to record in sd on Hopper 3?

    Well, I can kind of see where they don't think you need room, so why not record everything in HD, but I've come surprisingly close before to filling my ext. HD up and had to delete a bunch of stuff, so, for us, some things being in SD is no big deal. It seems like it would be so easy to just...

    no choice to record in sd on Hopper 3?

    simple question: When I go to record something, why is there no choice to record it HD or SD? or am I missing that? I like to record old tv shows for when there is nothing on to watch, but there is no need to have these in HD. I have turned the SD channels off, but it seems like the only way...

    I've never used any of these before. Do you have recommendations for brands or types? This would be all new to me.

    Hopper 3, need a phone line solution

    Just got the Hopper 3 and we don't have any phone jack anywhere near the hopper/TV. There are tons of those wireless phone extenders online, do these actually work? Is there a particular brand to buy? We just miss the Caller ID on the TV is all... :) thanks in advance!
