You need to know the chip it uses before flashing anything on it. Some STBs flash IC gets faulty(mostly fake) if you attempt to reprogram the flash IC.

Please can you guide me. How do I know the chip it uses?

Is it possible to retire?

For the love of it, you will be tempted to touch


My bro, you are very correct, the temptation nor be here oh. Just the thrill of seeing what is there and adding it to your conquest. Leaves one with that insatiable desire to continue hunting for the fun of it.

You are a very insecured dimwit. Just because you felt Digitman was going to expose your ignorance you took to insult. Look if you don't know you don't know, stop being envious and wanting to be like someone when you can never. Answering questions here is not to gain fame or popularity but to serve people. That's what Digitman is doing and you can never be like him.


My bro please cool your temper, because I know say, if it was possible to download an app that will make it possible for you to slap the guy through your phone.. By now the guy for done carry bandage for one eye. Lol. But then, as the saying goes " a lion does not bother himself with the opinions of the sheep " . On that note let's continue with our one love happy family discussion and focus on issues that will improve our lives and relationship with one another here. Even though we all might not meet face to face one day, but our effort to serve humanity and be our brothers keeper. Will remain indelible in the footprints of the sands of time. One love.

From my own point of view, satellite TV is like a car. Pay tv puts you in the passengers seat but FTA gives you full access to the drivers seat once you know how to track. It gives you that thrilling sensation of feeling like James Bond in a car chase. when you finally hunt down, whichever satellite tv that becomes your targeted mission. Lol

I feel your pain my bro. My relationship with that family started and ended with iPhone 6. After some period of usage it dawn on me that all I can do with the phone is show off. But after showing off, it makes me feel like I am using someone's phone due to too much restrictions to endless possibilities. When compared to android based phone. That became very boring. I just carry am give madam , then stroll go slot and ported to Samsung note family. A decision I have never regretted ever since then. Because with android everything is almost possible.... Just think am, Google am and the app for that thing go pop up for android based phone.

Hahahaha, for show off and that's what most people use it for, I can't imagine paying for something that can be gotten foc all in the name of I dey use iPhone(unless jailbreaking it which most won't go down that path)

Then some say it's because of the camera, these days there are cams on android that beats it hands down like the Huawei, Mi 10 ultra, Samsung, etc.

The truth is that about 40% of the function of the iPhone can't be used or accessed in this part of the world.

The plus I see in the iPhone is the sell-on value. Android simply gives endless possibilities, is there something your Android can't do?

The experience is the same bro. Every time, carry the Tv out, climb pole, change dish direction today, next tomorrow you're on the same cruise again. Neighbours'll be wondering, what's up with this guy? What is he looking for? Can't he just buy D*Tv? Infact my Land Lord told me one day that i should just resign from my work place and go join PayTv. Bottom line is, it's difficult to just let go... kind of addicted to it grin wink smiley cheesy

My brother take pride in what you do, that leads to the accomplishment of the joy you seek. Believe you me when I say, that all I see in this your write up. Is the joy on your kids faces being a part of that process with you. Which is priceless.

The President of America can buy a fishing company if he so desire. But it can never be compared to the thrill he gets when he is the one who caught the fish himself and if he is lucky enough to have a kid to share that moment with. Oh my world, it's more than what all the fishing company can offer and he will do it till his dying days provided he has a river close by.

A white man will take pride to brag how he built his own house with his barehands . From foundation to finishing. Many years later his children and grand children will tell the story to their friends with so much pride as well. But try it in Nigeria and you will either be seen as a poor man or stingy person.

In a white man's garage, you will see all kinds of tools for fixing things. Despite how rich that particular white man can be... He will take pride rolling out an old car his grandfather left behind and spend countless days, weeks, months or even years fixing it in front of his house. Neighbors go dey see am but yet nobody calls it fallen hand but rather a thing of pride . Even his kids go join hand dey give am spanner, a memory that will forever be cherished.

But for naija someone will just come out from him house to throw a ridicule at you for doing what you love.

A white man with a very lucrative job that is high paying enough to get him any car he wants. Will choose to take the train to work or even bicycle self, and nobody go mock am. But for naija, you never buy car, e go be like say you escort people come this world.

My bro make I just stop here because I can go on and on about it.

One thing I have learned over the years, is that you cannot please everyone.. So it's better you live your life for you and not for what another person will think or say.

Because at the end of the day, you will be the only one to either enjoy or suffer the consequences that comes from living your life based on what people might think and not them.

One love.... Please make nobody get me twisted.


Less I forget, I remove cap for you. for being able to track a satellite signal without even seeing the TV screen. But only from the voice response of your kids. Wow wow wow wow... My bro I am so overwhelmed and proud of you.
