Macam mana nak detect skybox clone atau original.

 ** kesilapan teknikal, setakat ini tiada berita tentang clone skybox f3 dan f5. hanya openbox dan model skybox s9 dan seterusnya yang ada clone box. skybox F3 dan F5 menggunakan chipset Ali3601 HD. bagaimana pun sila backup/dump "image.abs" dari box anda sebelum upgrade firmware.

How to identify clone Ali3602 HD Receiver (updated on Apr.18,2012)

Dear consumers :

If you have an Ali3602 HD Receiver like SKYBOX S9, S10, S11, S12...there is a method to identify if it is original (quality goods) or clone.

Before identify , please backup your old software on the box by usb.


enter menu---tool---information---press "8888" key, now you will see CHIP ID . If the box CHIP ID is in the chip_id_list, congratulation, your HD Receiver is original version!  You can upgrade any new firmware to experience more new functions. Otherwise, You Box is clone version , please recover the software with the old version! This software will kill the clone box when power on over 10 times. If less than 10 times, no kill for clone version.
the chip_id_list is the following, it will update everyday: (updated date :18/04/2012)

When you buy a new box , try to view the chip_id_list on this http page.  If you can not find the  valid "CHIP ID" on the  chip_id_list, it means your box is a clone box.
