| Getting Your Local Channels using Extreme HU and GetLocals v8 |
Ok I am going to write this step by step HOW TO so that everyone
will know how to patch their bin files to get locals.
First, if you normally patch your own CAM ID to the 3M bin file then you will
need to do that before starting this procedure. Instructions on how to do
that are located here HOW TO PATCH CAM ID TO BIN Do not write that bin to
your card just yet. You should patch your locals hex to that bin first.
Now we are ready to apply the locals hex of your choice to your 3M bin file.
You will need this file before we start Get_LocalsV8.zip Unzip the file to
your EXTREMEHU\HEX directory since this is the default directory in Extreme
HU for hex files. Once you have done that then you are ready to move on to
putting the local hex to your bin file.
Note: This HOW TO assumes that you use Extreme HU 3.5a
First you need to open either the bin file that you downloaded or the one
that you have patched with your CAM ID.
Open Extreme HU 3.5a
Go to File -> Open EEPROM
Select the bin file that you want to apply locals to.
Now we will apply the local patch to bin file.
This is how:
Go to EEPROM -> Patch Hex file
Select the city from which you want your locals to come. ie: 05-Dallas.HEX
Click on Open
Viola!! It applies the hex file.
Click OK to acknowledge the patch is complete.
Now you need to save the bin file with a different name . ie: dec9patchedlocals.bin
This is how:
Go to File -> Go to Save as -> Go to Bin file
Name the file and click save
You are Done
You can now write the file that you patched to your card.
Go to File -> Go to Open EEPROM
Find file we just created
File should populate message window
Go to Card -> Boot Card -> with ins. 48
Wait for Bootstrap to load
Bootstrap loaded
Go to Card -> Clean Card -> with normal glitching
Clean your card twice
Go to Card -> Write -> Current EEPROM -> Normal Glitching
Remove Card from loader
Unplug receiver for about 20 seconds and then plug back in.
Wait for "Please insert Access Card" and Insert your card.
Done....Watch TV!!
Note: After applying this Hex file, my locals appeared in just a few minutes.
For some reason these hex files overcome the usual 2 hour blackout period.
This may not be the case in your situation due to IRD generation differences.
