Please help me, sob sob sob

This is how the gprs madness started on the Phones section started. Please post on the FTA thread on this board.

what you have used was the official software you downloaded from strong website, download and use a patch software instead.
read through FTA thread to know more.

Kindly check FTA thread on this link for more on ETV https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-7715.1344.html

I sincerely apologize for posting on a wrong thread or page. I was a drowning man seeking for help. I used the software from the strong/mytv website and since then my eTV never reponded to 6969. I am in need of help as i dont know what to do. please gurus in the house kindly help a helpless brother.

at the moment i cant view any station. is it that all the stations on mytv and trend have been enscripted or is it because of the software i uploaded.

please help me with anything to correct this glitch as: before i lost all the stations, the audio was gone though i could view then. but now both audio and video is off. pls help me

Your question has been answered before ---- maybe on another thread!!!!!!!

1. Find someone with an identical receiver and who gets eTV and do a software transfer from their receiver to yours; or

2. Search on the Net (the links are in the main thread) for non-official software i.e. 'patch' for your receiver and load it.

i have a little problem watching my e.t.v station it suddenly goes scrambled, i tried 6969 on it and it refuses to come up. anyone aware of what's is happening with the station? please help out , it's the most lovely station on Mytv for now.

Dear Harra,
sorry to to have to tell you that Etv has scrambled its signals with effect from 31/07/09, using an encryption system (code) known as nagra 3. This means you will no longer be able to view your favourite programmes on the channel unless you become a subscriber.
Don't worry, you are not the only one who will be dissappointed, many more particularly in countries like Kenya ,Zimbabwe and others who got so used to the channel are now all up in arms with this great loss.
I am personally already missing my favourite soap series: Rythmn City and also Scandal, which I watch unfailingly Mon. - Fri.
Hopefully one day somebody could be able hack into the channel, though I dare say it will probably have to be a very very long wait, because nagra 3 has so far proven to be an impossible encryption system to break- as those who use to watch D+ and TV Cabo prorammes on Hispsat already know.

thanks man
tashanja, guess that's your real name? tell me does that mean E.t.v has changed its frequency? or will no longer show on that frequency.

is there no way of unscrambling it perhaps with another code? please find out. just as you said those favorite soap series: Rhythm City and also Scandal are just the bomb. and with lots of fascinating programs on it

hope to hear from you soon, , once more

thanks man

Dear Harra,
kindly note that nothing has changed about the frequency, except that an additional code (enryption) has been included in the broadcasting signal which prevents your receiver from successfully processing this signal to give you sound and picture as usual.
Nobody knows how to break this code for now, until then you may have to continue to do without or subscribe to eTV.
