    Blimey how do we get doubters these days, It is the same box FFS

    How come no one questions when we buy a car from a different manufacturer with the same body but with a different badge ???

    It has been happening for over 10 years on no one raises and eyebrow.

    It called economics and it is here to stay

    Let's wait for CT to provide a solution for this problem.
    I suppose that currently, if somebody need to replace the battery (very rare case as the receiver is too new) could connect an external power supply with minimum voltage just before unplug the old battery. Maybe a temporary trick waiting for the final fix.

    skorpion, is that your box?

    What's happened? Noticed that according to the vfd you're watching trt hd... Have you got a picture on screen? Have you powered off your box?

    Looks like you might have to send a package off to clarke-tech ...

    still working on the device nothing happened. Turkish topics in the forum is being processed. Turks one friend, he removed the battery out of curiosity and the device is still working no problems. then put back in place. device is still solid. undisclosed problem.


    Why put the battery manufacturer do? wonder if a copy of the work on the clone? clone in order to prevent emergence, something made

    I was all for buying this box until I found this thread.

    XTREND saying that they will fix it in the future seems like a 'damage mitigation plan' to me. It's not as if they are going to be able to fix this with a firmware upgrade is it?

    All computer motherboards that have batteries are designed to allow you to replace them. Imagine how that would look in computer forums if Intel created a motherboard that was bricked as soon as you removed the battery. Do you think that everyone would accept this, even if they say 'do not worry it will be fixed in the future'? Just seems a bit...of a 'cop out'. If I invested over £350 on a sat box, one of the bigger ticks in the box would be built in 'future proofing'. To me at least, this flaw has removed that.

    Unless I can be reassured otherwise, I will be getting something else or waiting until XTREND actually do a hardware fix.
