No you are not wrong I personally, prefer to adhere to the IIABDFI method of operation If it ain't broke don't fix it Simply flashing an stb with the wrong software or having that update process interrupted by a power cut or similar could render the stb useless or certainly in need of at the very least jtagging. You must not have been using a good search engine during your 3 day search try using google and search for Astra 8800z, the very first post when I do it is in Arabic on the elwessia.com website and contains downloads, but I know nothing as to their functionality they may damage your stb | ||
