You'll find that android devices and their interfaces have a different type of supporter, people who are into streaming, movie downloading and building a single entertainment and media centre type of device. If you like Netfix, XBMC (Kodi) app, Google pay music etc. then your'e that kind of user....

Being android big Brother Google is watching everything you do. It tweets whatever your watching which you cant disable.You need your Google acc AND your Sony Playstation ACC even just to update the firmware. Likewise nearly all apps want your Google login. There's 100s of things running in the background most of which I can't even guess at their use. I'm sorry I bought it.

Did you know embedded facebook app on your phone LISTENs to your conversations and uses speech to text recognition to pick out key words, then transforms that into saleable data so the popup ads on your screen are about stuff you've just been talking about? Imagine that on your receiver!!

However anytime I booted into it the word STARTING would appear on the LCD screen and stay there. Anytime I watched anything the box would (after about 10 minutes) show that green screen and reboot. It became impossible to watch anything so I reflashed with the same image but now the box is stuck in Boot Mode when I go back into Enigma. I have tried Hyperion 4.5, 5.1 and 5.5 images as well as a number of others over the last few days but the problem still persists. The image updates on Spark but when I boot into Enigma the BOOT display remains on the display on the box. Is there some way of JUMP STARTING the box to start working again in Engima or is it time to get a new box? Thanks.

gazzer wrote: » Thanks for that info. So (just so I am clear). Instead of me booting into spark and loading the image from there I just do what you have said above. OR do I do what you have said AFTER I have loaded the image through Spark? Sorry if that is a stupid question

TBH Spark crashes just as much, its just that I don't have to wait multiple days for it to recover. I couldn't even get into the recovery mode. I'm might try go back to it with an updated image. This whole experience has been just hassle though. Doing it for my folks... cheers

wellboss wrote: » Hey How do I check if a tuner card is fecked, is it possible that it can pick up some channels and not others. running enigma 2 on Sab Triple, when I scan its only finding 520 channels, when i scan on my amiko box i get the 900, I am using the same E2 image on both boxes, it seems to be the same on both tuner cards on the sab It was working fine last week, brought it to my father in laws house and then half the channels were missing and were grayed out in the menu, now its doing the same in my house. When i install a fresh image from my amiko box onto sab, BBCs work fine, otheres dont work like E4/Ch4 etc, but when I rescan the BBCs then dont work and I can find versions of C4 that do work. I am totally confused Any ideas what could be causing this, could I have fried tuner cards plugging the sat cables in and out? Cheers
