Sorry but how do i know if my finder is freesat or dymco? Box and finder sais its freesat, cames with august 2017 firmware from factory and i tried to upgrade but none of the newer firmwares where recognized so i do a flash.bin recovery (power + menu) and after that the installation of sat didnt work again... Also tried to make downgrades etc...Feralkiwi wrote:Is your problem with a Freesat V8 finder or the DYMCO unit talked about above?Pabloenmieres wrote:Same problem here, i cant work with it its unuseless. I made downgrades but nothing works... Any fix?
If it is a Freesat finder then please what is the problem?
If your unit is not starting then try a flash.bin recovery.
Place a copy of the unpacked software (the .bin file) on a USB stick and rename it "flash.bin"
With the USB in the unit, power on while repeat pressing "Menu" on the unit.
The unit should reload the software.
If this does not recover then you can try the RS232 method.
If something else it the problem please let me know.

Re: Freesat V8 Finder have a Problem w/t Lasted Firmware
You are not the first to have this "File doesn't match with this box" message.
So far I have had no response from Freesat regarding this.
No user has found a way to fix this.
It looks to be a Freesat unit.
Here is a link to pics of the inside of my Finder.

Freesat is not response and ignore a fault ("File doesn't match with this box") feedback from customer.I will not consider to buy freesat product in furure.
Re: Freesat V8 Finder have a Problem w/t Lasted Firmware
I agree. There has been no response from Freesat for this fault that three users have now reported.
I have seen that there is a look a like unit branded DMYCO as posted in the topic.
Is your unit that has this "File doesn't match with this box" a DMYCO unit?
If it is a DMYCO unit, then we could request a copy of the software from User "evgenia" who has one.
"evgenia" If you read this please PM me so I can get a copy emailed to me.

Re: Freesat V8 Finder have a Problem w/t Lasted Firmware
pabloenmieres я виду на фото что прошивка S/W7.11.2017 версияH/W 25.07.2017 Вопрос зачем надо было менять свежую прошивку на любую другую ? Что Вас не устраивало? Теперь когда я получу свой финдер я очень буду против каких либо новых версий тем более если все меня устроит! Вот почему ребята меня интересует что вас заставляет менять прошивку ответьте?

thanks for your information.
I checked the box information. Sure ! the v8 finder fw don't matched with that unit.
Could you send more information to service@freesat.cn ?
1) who sell this unit to you or send me the shop link?
2) do you or someone repaired this unit?
3) help to take a photo about unit SN to us.
we will try to save it after get your upper information.
I asked my factory engineer to check the unit issue ASAP.

A solution for your" look a like" box is to have that seller send you a copy of THEIR software.
This software can be got from another of these clone units by USB backup ALL Code.
Your finder will then work but can not use Freesat upgrades.

Re: Freesat V8 Finder have a Problem w/t Lasted Firmware
Have you sent you serial number to Freesat to confirm yours is a Freesat unit?bonuss_2 wrote:No have freesat response.
I posted on the DMYco.cn website but my post was not dispalyed / checked and is not there.
I had asked for someone to post a copy of DMYco finder software so users like you could try it to restore their units.
If anyone has a DMYco V8 Finder, Please can they post a copy of the software from their unit here.
This is done by; Menu / Tools / USB Backup, and select all code.
Those file need to be placed in a .zip folder to be attach to a post on this board.

Re: Freesat V8 Finder have a Problem w/t Lasted Firmware
dear bonuss_2
This is some confuse, Freesat member need to know are you buy a genuine products? or you buy copy products so if you show serial on package and serial menu same number is genuine products.
You trust a genuine freesat products and buy from Aliexpress then please show serial number and Freesat team will check your products.
or you can send serial number to winsat04@winsat.net or inbox to vivian checking again.
all of them if some problem occur in the latest firmware, Freesat Developer Team will improve in next time.
I consider your picture you show is same a genuine products , I thinks you try format U-stick first and copy new firmware at root then upgrade again, Please try.
