my sathawk works just only as a "FTA" hd box... even not reading some cards or cam! but in Fergusan...having some option there !, thats why badly i m trying to upgrade this s/w!
thank u, yeh i also just modified some thing in header and boot loader info but, still i m very very unlucky...not succeed!may b i have done something wrong!
I tried that too. Wouldn't update via usb "wrong type". But it did load correctly via rs232, but when i turned it on it didn't boot. I did not overwrite the bootloader, because i didn't want to end up with a dead box.
yea i got it back to noraml by putting the original s/w via r232. But i am not sure if this would have been possible if i tried to overwrite the bootloader
may its possible if we upgrade the correct boot loader (is boot loader and tool available separately?) by tool!
If you open the Firm in Hex Editor, you can see where the different sections start.
Maybe copy the Bootloader from the Solomend Firm, replace in the Ferguson Firm and recalculate any check sums? At Your Own Risk!

i already tried this and also i had put the clone firmware in to the solomend's dump(firmware area)-but N0 LUCK!I think we need the correct boot loader and tool! or need experts guide!
Hi boys, Sorry for the late reply .... I try to give you first a simple answer : No , you cant use Ferguson, Az/america or Smart firmware on Sathawk. Now the long one: three boxes are manufactured by same company and use a anti clone MCU (8051core), bootloader has special routines to comunicate with MCU , authenticate and decrypt maincode. Also if you can check firmware with hex editor you can find important info.

Using the new firmware from lpraderi's link. I have noticed that video plays slightly better. For example the MyNetwork HD feed plays better, but not perfect. I almost need two tvs and two receivers to see the improvment, but it does play slightly better.
Also no AC3 fix and no motor fix yet.

you can upload and download the channel list as a .dbs file. data is still lost on new firware uploads, but you can save it and upload it as you like as a .dbs. Note you must reboot the receiver yourself after loading a .dbs file for the channels to show up. Also it seems that the editor can not edit a .dbs file, so you will have to export the whole firmware as a .abs to edit your channels.
Not the easiest setup, but you can do alot more now, somwhat easier, i guess.

Is this receiver a clone of another receiver or there are other receivers out there that are clones to this? Who is the manufacturer? Website and support etc?
