    Android OS 2.2 FROYO

    I know I just found that thread, somehow missed it before. Have you done the manual "tweek" for Apps to SD yet? Google currently has it disabled in the leaks. Just a simple ADB command and then you can move almost all apps you want to SD card. Just stay away from those that have widgets...

    1000.4 (EA) LNB on 1000 or Plus dish??

    Lineman, Thanks for the quick reply. That thread is one I found, hence the arm length question. I have a Dish 1000, and a Dish Plus, and an EA LNB, BUT I don't have the stinkin EA arm :-) From what I read the EA arm is shorter, so I guess my biggest question is how much shorter, or if...

    1000.4 (EA) LNB on 1000 or Plus dish??

    Hi guys, I know this has been answered before but I tried search and couldn't find it. Can an EA LNB (1000.4) be mounted on either a Dish 1000 or a Dish Plus? Does the arm need to be shortened and if so does anyone know the proper length? Thanks in advance for your help. Dave

    RV and Home satellite

    dave10a, I would call back and ask for Technical help. I never use the normal Customer service at Dish for anything because the few times I tried whatever I needed was not done correctly. Concerning the RV situation I find it very odd. I called a month ago and told them I was moving one...

    RV set up (2 HDTVs running on HDMI w/ Splitter)

    For a while I ran 2 HDTVs via an HDMI splitter with my 622. One HDMI run was 30 feet, the other one was 20 feet. It worked OK, but every once in a while the audio would drop and I would have to turn the TV off and back on to get the audio back. Eventually I did as others suggested, one TV on...

    Dish HD Locals Update

    I have been refusing to "believe it" as in no HD locals in Greenville, SC since 2006, then even more when as you said Direct has had them 1st Q last year. It is even more insulting if the "flatlanders" down in Greenville NC who can get all their OTA HD locals with a metal twist tie from a loaf...

    Dish HD Locals Update

    After seeing that the Greenvile NC mention wasn't a typo, I gave up on the Greenville SC locals happening anytime soon, if ever. And where I live a 500 foot tower wouldn't even get me OTA. So I, tweaked my 1000+ Dish yesterday to maximize 118.7, made the call today and relocated 3 miles up...

    Dish HD Locals Update

    It better be, if the little town (72k pop) Greenville, NC got it's very own locals in HD (they are already in the Raliegh DMA) after all the promises about Greenville, SC HD for the last 2 years, somebody would go postal on Dish :-)

    Multiple 622 DVRs

    I have 2 leased 622s also, got them back to back with in weeks of each other. This was back when they first came out and caught on to it. I remember a discussion with tech support a few months ago and they made a comment like "you know you are not supposed to have 2 622s". I simply replied...

    Greenville, SC DMA HD Locals - Don't hold your breath

    Oh, 118 is not a problem, I aready bought a 1000+ in anticipation for the Greenville/Asheville HD being on 118. 118 is already locked and coming in 5x5, just nothing on it for me :-( If they (ever) put it on 129 I am screwed because I can't lock it in here, even with a separate dish in an...

    Greenville, SC DMA HD Locals - Don't hold your breath

    If I lived 2 houses over I would qualify for the Charlotte HD locals. BUT their news in not relevant to my area, weather and news for my area is only covered by WLOS Asheville, NC. Charlotte stations have never heard of Spruce Pine or ever mentioned it. IF I could even get WLOS SD on an...

    Greenville, SC DMA HD Locals - Don't hold your breath

    Hi Guys, I sent the following e-mail to Dish (via CEO e-mail and website contact), below that is their reply. Gonna have to start educating myself about those weird Direct Receivers etc. :-( My E-mail: Subject: URGENT - Help me to stop you Losing a $15,000 Customer!! Hi, Sorry...

    What will be the E* v D* "Threshold of Irrelavance"?

    The one thing that is pushing me to switch is the lack of HD locals. Direct has them in my DMA and Dish doesn't. Since I am in an area (Greenville/Asheville DMA) where you couldn't get OTA with a 100 foot tower it is increasingly becoming an issue. The HD nationals will all level out...

    I Don't Want The New Software!

    Jeff, You are stressing over nothing. Trust me I have 2 622s and they are MUCH more stable with the 4.01 software than they were wih 3.66. With 3.66 I used to get an occasional spontanious reboot (sometimes almost daily), but since 4.01 I have not had one single reboot, nada, zip, 0.... it is...

    Official 622 L4.01 Discussion Thread

    FYI, DishComm not functioning: Neither of my 622s will communicate with each other althought they do recognise "themselves". I tried manually adding each one using the R # (tried both as receiver and modem)and get "error adding DishCOMM device". I do have surge surpressors on both units and...

    622 L4.01 To Spool on Thursday! (Not sure WHICH thursday though)

    One Quick Tip concerning HD Mapdown. At first I thought it wasn't working on mine as it didn't show up on my Guide (one of my custom favoite lists). After checking "all sub" it was indeed working. I guess I expected it to automatically update my Favorites lists, it does not. You have to manually...
