    Hopper 3 keeps starting up with black screen/no sound.

    I stopped getting email updates on this thread I started, so I had no idea there were so many posts still going. I've attached the pics you were talking about. Thanks for the help!

    Hopper 3 keeps starting up with black screen/no sound.

    While I have all you smart people here, could you perhaps tell me what kind of other external hard drive I could buy to transfer all my stuff over to & perhaps not have to use with dish in the future. I have just about every single great movie and series on my external drive but it's got to be...

    I'll be damned, in all the years I've had dish, I've never heard to turn the hopper off along with TV when I'm done with it. I will start doing that. Thank you!

    I shut the TV off, but not the hopper. Although in the settings it's set to do a 2am reset every night

    Hopper 3 keeps starting up with black screen/no sound.

    I'm not clear on when you say "set to never go into standby mode". I don't understand what that means. Please bear with me, I recently had a "mini-stroke", so my brain is not working that great. The hopper has started up find for the last 4 days in a row. I checked for an update today and it...

    Hopper 3 keeps starting up with black screen/no sound.

    So, as the title says, the past 3 days, when I turn my TV on (LG), the screen goes black, I have no sound. I can get into the TV interface, so I know it's not the TV. I can bring the dish guide up and see it, but no channel will come in until I reboot the my Hopper 3. Once I reboot (push red...

    New Software: Hopper Duo (U990), Hopper 1 (....), Hopper 2 (....), Hopper 3 (....), Wally (....)

    So, I have a strange situation going on with my hopper 3. I had dish move me about a month ago, everything was fine. I told him I was having a new roof put on and he said they would have to come out and realign the dish, which was fine. I had the roof put on, roofers put dish back up but of...

    Anyone able to pair a dish remote with a sony tv (for tv apps)?

    Well, I thought I had it. Got the menu button on the Dish remote to open the apps, got the right arrow to go right. Then I went ahead and tried to teach it the select button, left, up, down. And now I can't even use the menu to bring anything up. Maybe there's a limit on how many things you can...

    Anyone able to pair a dish remote with a sony tv (for tv apps)?

    Just bought a Sony 49x900f TV yesterday and was really hoping I could get my dish remote to pair with the TV completely. I am able to pair it enough to get into the apps page, but can't use arrows on dish remote to scroll through apps. Was really hoping to be able to use just one dang remote...
