oh man you people are great.
after opening about 5 boxes used on my network
SA boxes i will say there is a ways to get in to the. ONE 4200HD has a 4000 mother board the chips on the board can be pulled and then re programed with out any problems. this then can be used to make CLONED BOXES. yes it can be done YOU CAN LIFT THE CHIPS IN THE BOX READ THE CODE AND THEN RE COPY THEM TO OTHER BOXES.
you will need a SUBBED account with all channels
lift the chip off the mother board read it and the n program it back on to a new chip install it back in to your board and watch it boot
after that take a chip out of the 2nd 4200HD with the 4000 mother board and apply the coding u dumped off the other board to it and power it on and watch it boot.
So yes you can hack a DIGITAL box and i know also you can do this with MOTO boxes there are tons of info for COMCAST DIGITAL BOXES ALL OVER THE WEB
to any one that says you cant hack it then bend over because i'm ready to FU*K U |

Hey guys not to get anyones undies in a twist but I may have some good news for you who chose the cheaper path to entertainment. Now the deal is about 5 yrs ago I had Cox install their digital product. The subcontractor was Sunrise Cable. Well all in all the guy who installed it for us put a code using the faceplate buttons on the box and voila we had almost everything except for pay per view. He also told us that if we did not order PPV we would retain everything.....and we did for like 3 years until we moved. Now that was 5 years ago so it may not apply and I don't have the code and it was for a motorolla box. If any one can get the code plz post it may still work for some boxes. |

Cable Tool STFU all the cable companies are thieves....they give crappy stuff to watch at any given time of the day... and it's like 60 bucks to get a handful of viewable programming stations. Cable companies also steal from their customers with their fraudulent billing tactics. Sick of getting fukkked and would now like to do some fukkking. |

I am a comcast HSI subscriber with which I get the 12 mbit down speed at $60 a month. First a foremost , I love the service I am receiving. I perform bandwidth tests daily, and on average receive 12-21 mbit down and 712 kbits upload. But back on topic, I was recently recieving free extended basic cable do to error on comcasts end I believe. At first I thought it was included with the apartment building I am in, but one day, it has turned off. My question is this: can Comcast tell if non digital cable is being used in a household without being billed? Also, is there any way to unscramble basic cable from the jack instead of the locked cable switchboard on site. I understand that it is merely a switch of sorts from the cable box. |

jeeeez... quit arguing and just realize that the whole issue here is the fact that the cable companies are "raping" the customers with outragious over charging and expect them to just take it keep quiet. I don't know about you, but do you really expect everyone to keep their mouths shut after being "raped"? So here's my logic... lower prices = no more raping, which in turn means happier customers and less "hacking". So until the "raping" stops, "hack" away, my fellow "rapees"! Well... that's the way the Doc explained it to me  |

OK, this is what pisses me off, i have Comcast and subscribe to Digital Plus , HBO, and Starz, I have a moto 3412 DVR.
i also have High speed and Digital Voice.
Ok, for this i pay a little over $150.00 a month, that is a little high, but they have to maintain and upgrade their eqipment and lines, pay for labor, and other stuff.
not to mention they have to pay for the right to re-transmit the programming and networks they get off C-Band.
so we are paying for all that already.
then along come people that steal cable, ok so the cable company has to find a way to stop it, then the theif gets around it, this has gone on and on for years, snd the extra operating cost and lost revenue gets passed onto those of us who pay for our cable honestly.
i bet that if comcast could get by with minimal security and everyone who watched their cable was honest and paid for it our bills would be 25% or (or more) less per month but that will never happen in this society.
theives will continue to get smarter, comcast will comtinue to spend more and more on security
our cable bills will continue to increase. |

Now where's the fun in that? hmmmm, free cable... or pay out the rear for it. The first one sounds more appealing. Especially when there are only a few select channels that I like to watch... I sure as hell am not paying for all 100 something channels just so I can have the 5 that I like. The friggin cable is already plugged in for me since I have high speed internet, so I am confused about the part where "stealing" comes in. |

Well, I cant afford a Mercedes so I drive a Jeep. I dont go out and steal a Mercedes.
"Why should I pay 50K for this Mercedes?! Im just going to drive it around and listen to the radio? I can do the same thing in my jeep?! I guess Ill just have to steal it..."
Really, get a net flix account or get some OTA's. Either that or some morals and values. Last I heard theft was illegal. |

Well, the stealing comes in where you are not paying for cable video, just the HSD
The only reason there is a cable signal going to your house is so the modem can connect to the headend.
The tv channels are trapped out so you cant watch them since you dont pay for them.
Your logic says that just because the PUD has wires running to my house and they are connected to the transformer that it wouldnt be theft if i go and bypass my meter so i get free electric, i mean why should i pay for power, the wires are there.
Knowingly receiving goods or services of value without paying, is theft, plain and simple |

NOT TRUE... I HAD THE SIGNAL RUNNING TO IT EVER SINCE I MOVED IN. STEALIN? I DON'T THINK SO! THE SIGNAL HAS ALWAYS BEEN THERE FOR ME, NEVER TRAPPED.
TELL YA WHAT, I'LL SEND YOU A NEW MERCEDES WITH NO CONTRACT INVOLVED AND I WILL EXPECT YOU TO PAY ME FOR IT. OH WAIT... WHY DO THAT WHEN ITS ALREADY AT YOUR DOORSTEP? SO YEAH THATS MY LOGIC... PEOPLE SEND ME THINGS OR "SIGNALS" WITHOUT ASKING ME, WHY WOULD I PAY FOR THEN IF THEY ARE ALREADY THERE FOR ME TO USE? UNLESS I JUST LIKE TO SPEND MONEY FOR THINGS I DIDNT ASK FOR. |

So, you're PAYING for the video signal and not using it? Or you're paying for the HSD signal and assume that entitles you to the video signal as well?
You're a phuqing moron. |

What is always funny is the flawed logic in people that knowingly take, use or steal what is not theres. Be it passively or aggresivly.
If there is video signal coming through the line because the tech didnt trap it out, which he should, then you actively took the line and plugged it into your tv knowing it is not a service that you are paying for.
Thats theft of service. There is a slight grey area there because if you couldnt care less and see no moral issue with it then even if they came to your home and put the trap in your housebox there is a good chance you would go out there, see the trap and take it off yourself and continue to steal the service.
I see your point and get what you are saying but they didnt come in, install your HSI then hook up your tvs as well. You did that. Shame on the tech for not trapping out the video, shame on you for having no morals or values, then coming here to brag about it and defend it.
Hopefully if you are older then 12 you are teaching your children or family different then what you are showing them.
Probably not though.
My wife is a teacher and her kids know her husband works for the cable company, they flat out tell her their parents steal cable. I couldnt be more ashamed if my son told his friends and teachers that his dad steals ANYTHING and then laughed about it. What kind of a role model would I be?
Regardless of how you rationalize it, regardless of how you precieve it, its theft, its punishable, your actively hooking up to a service you are not paying for or subscribed to and are fully aware of it.
How that makes it right in your book is what is inherintly wrong with half the population today.
Nobody owes you shiitt. |

No they don't, your're right about that. I don't remember saying anything like that, though you are welcome to put words into my mouth if you want.
Jeeez this gonna go on forever isn't it?
Somehow we brought morals and values into a conversation about cable. Shame on you!

No.. we brought morals and values into a conversation about stealing cable.. hence the title of the thread "Any way of hacking digital cable"
And no.. you never said you were "owed it" you just eluded to it.
"free cable... or pay out the rear for it. The first one sounds more appealing. Especially when there are only a few select channels that I like to watch... I sure as hell am not paying for all 100 something channels just so I can have the 5 that I like." |

This is an interesting thread - I can't believe I read the whole thing. A few comments;
Are cable rates too high? yes
Are people going to steal cable? yes
Is it wrong to steal cable? yes
Can cable boxes be hacked? yes
Are there idiots out there with a degree in engineering? yes
Are there people out there that claim to know a lot more than they do? yes
Most people with knowledge either state the facts or are quiet - they don't spout off about how much they know or argue with someone in a thrread such as this. It's immature actually. Funny - but immature. Hey - I read it all.
Is Scooby an uptight, foul mouthed, defensive, self absorbed pr!ck who seems to infer something is being said against him? yes
Are there people out there getting cable that they aren't paying for by no fault of their own? yes
Is this wrong? IMO - no
Are people on this site going to band together and form a group to pool their skills in order to "Stick it to the cable companies" - no considering a lot of the posts within this thread came from people that are employed by the cable companies.
Are there people out there that think Mercedes are too expensive but think they deserve one so they steal - yes every day
Is anyone that posted in this thread owed free cable - no
Is the comment from the Tooth Fairy hilarious - yes
Something/anything/everything is only worth what someone will pay for it. The cable companies are getting paid for their services. They sit in conference rooms trying to decide what more they can offer and charge more and get a leg up on their competitor - the few that there are. Sorry but that's the American way. Build a better mousetrap and people will beat a path to your door. Provide these services (or for that matter less services) for less and you can do it too. Problem is, (some) companies get too big and too greedy or too beholden to their stockholders. Keep in mind - most of the companies discussed within this thread are public companies that have to show continued profit and/or growth in order to retain/gain investors.
Until and unless some you out there begin to believe in the Tooth Fairy and Me you will never really be happy - just look at the anger in this thread. You've all been bad and will not get anything but a lump of coal come this Christmas.
Shame on you - go get a life - and stop this post for heaven's sake...(even though I added to it) |

as for those of you who steal analog cable either by sneaking out in the middle of the night to the box or pole (which, by the way you do in an effort to not get caught STEALING because you know it's WRONG)
or those of you who take advantage of an oversight by the tech who forgot to trap out the video,
Your game will be over soon because over the next few years there will be less and less analog service, and by 2009 it will be all digital and reqire an STB to get anything.
Here in my area we have already started phasing out analog cable a couple channels at a time and will keep doing so until there is no more, and you are SOL.
Good luck trying to hack the headend so your personal STB (probably STOLEN too) will work |

"free cable... or pay out the rear for it. The first one sounds more appealing. Especially when there are only a few select channels that I like to watch... I sure as hell am not paying for all 100 something channels just so I can have the 5 that I like."
So does this mean that since I want a couple beers when I get home from work, but I dont plan to drink a whole 12 pack and since the store I go to dont sell them one at a time that I should just steal them?
this is my point, if I buy a 12 pack I will eventually drink it all
if you pay for 100 channels to get 5 you will at some point watch more than just the 5 favorites
I have about 260 channels. Do I watch them all every day, NO. Does comcast owe me something because I paid for them and didnt use them all everyday, NO. I am paying for the variety and conviniance of the programming that is offered.
If I really only want to pay for a couple beers and the store I am at only sells 12 packs it is my problem to drive to one that sells them 1 at a time.
If I really only want to pay for 5 channels then it is my problem to select a programming provider that offers cable channels al-a-carte (1 at a time) like C-Band Satellite, they still have lots of free channels, and if you get a VCRS or Digicypher Module you can find providers that offer a-la-carte services |

JT has so many accounts and aliases he forgets what he himself has written. I doubt you could hack a stalk of celery much less an STB. For anyone that steals you reap what you sow. For anyone that buys an STB from E-Bay you get what you deserve. For anyone that thinks they can hack a cable company front end from an STB, you need an education. For the educated posters in this thread I applayd you and your courage to continue to argue with the remaining dimwits.

Snoop wrote "JT has so many accounts and aliases he forgets what he himself has written."
I'm not sure what you are referring to as this is the first time I've come to this site and my one and only post. A poor attempt at an insult - rather childish really. This post has now become nothing more that hurling insults back and forth - not what it was originally intended for - but humorous nonetheless. I'll leave it there - hurl all you want Snoop. Oh, and by the way - if you read my post I said nothing about hacking STB's. You are correct however when you state I couldn't hack an STB - I never claimed to know how - but I'm sure I could hack a stalk of celery...
"...applayd..." ??? Sorry - had to add that.
Mike - I've heard rumors for years about the al-a-cart style cable where a customer could pick and choose which channels they wanted and only pay for those - a good idea but I don't see it in this area - wish I did. Most of us are exactly like you - we have 100 channels of sh!t to choose from and only really want a half dozen or so but are forced into buying the whole load of crap to get those few we want. As I said - if someone could get the revenue to start a new service like that...a better mousetrap. I liked the beer analogy though - good one. If you need help finishing off that six pack....
Marty - it seems Snoop is in a perpetual state of being pissed off - makes for a rather large target. I find it funny as well.
Have a nice day all. |

When I was talking about al-a-carte service I was refering to C-Band satellite (the BIG DISH method)
there is a world of legal ITC (in the clear, or, Free) feeds there and you can easily find programming providers that offer channels al-a-carte
I, personally, have never heard of al-a-carte being offered on cable. it might come to pass someday on all digital, but as far as analog it would not be feasible, imaging a customer that they only wanted analog channels lets say 2-13 then 36 then 48 then 52 then 64.
The tech would be stuck installing a series of narrow-banded traps, and there would need to be a truck roll everytime someone wanted to add or remove a channel, not to mention that the tap location would be a tangled mess (worse than they already are) of coax and traps.
That will never happen on analog cable, but then again analog cable is on its way out the door anyways |

Studio,
Then please feel free to post in this thread how it is done. Many people will appreciate your effort. Eh? What was that? You are unable to do that? What a surprise!!
Poor children in the UK are starving for digital cable and studio is on here wasting bandwidth.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I just want to see what you all feel on this:
Comcast is making its money on selling access to FREE channels. (Let's exclude HBO, PPV, etc., for the sake of simplicity.)
Comcast doesn't own the channel content, just their own "access system." Dish & Direct TV came up with their own version of "access" which they sell &, again, they make money from the FREE channels. Antennas provide another "access system" for the FREE channels.
If the FREE channels don't mind being accessed by a variety of methods &, on the contrary, they want to be accessed & seen by as many people as possible, & it's not considering stealing when Comcast, Dish & Direct TV takes these FREE signals from the sources. Then why is it stealing if people access these signals in order to watch the FREE channels?
I'm trying to come up with an analogy: Let's say that, for health reasons, the city government of Miami decides to provide FREE water to its inhabitants. They actually WANT you to consume this FREE water. Along comes Comcast Water Company, pulls up its trucks to the water fountain in the center of the city, fills up its trucks & takes it back to the company, buys access to the city's water system, puts on filters on everyone's plumbing into their houses, then tries to charge money to remove the filters so the Miami inhabitants can access the FREE water that the city government of Miami had decided to give away in the first place. If people go outside to remove the filters in order to get the FREE water which the city wanted them to get for FREE to begin with, is that stealing? Not a perfect analogy, but I tried.
What do you all think?

Who told you that channels were free? Exclude your premiums as you say. Most all content is PAID FOR. You can exclude the premium channels and PV if you like but all other content outside of that is also paid for.
ESPN for example has a HUGE price tag because people like you and me like to watch sports.
Every year ESPN can up thier price by 23% of they desire. And EVERY SINGLE YEAR they have upped thier price by 23%.
Any provider who drops them do to gouging will also loose all the sports fanatics. Thats why Comcast owns a lot of sports content and tried to buy Disney. If you cant afford them , Own em.
So Comcast is paying 25million a year to provide ESPN and some yahoo with a wrench goes out at midnight and hooks himself up.
On top of that this thread is about hacking digital boxes.. no one is hacking a box to get their local channels off of it.
Your water analogy bites because water isnt a luxury. |

Printing money heh nah it's not the same as cable theft. No matter what you goodie 2 shoes say piracy hurts noone. This society and country is run by corporations and stock holders who are just plain greedy. This didnt stop with the cable company who just happen to be the only service available in my whole state. So now I have a greedy monopoly to deal with just to watch frikkin TV. I'd rather have it all for nothing than a little for a fortune. Don't listen to the cable guys hear fellaz, they are just afraid of it costing them their pathetic jobs. Anything can be hacked. Remember these words.... If man makes it, man breaks it. Never stop innovation even if it costs the cable guy his job. |

What the hell world am I living in lately?
"goodie 2 shoes?
"piracy hurts no one"
"costing them their pathetic jobs"
Hey neighbor... FUCH OFF.
And please, no one is costing me my job. Pretty much everyday I cut illegal drops. As I see them peer out form behind a curtain or flip one of their blinds to watch me. The second I cut the line I hear a noise from the home.
Im sure you guys get all ballsy online but when we are at your home or cutting you your all meek little kids cowering in your homes afraid of any kind of confrontation because you all know its ethically wrong and illegal.
Freaking hilarious. Thanks for the daily laughs howver my humble lot of degenerates! |

I happen to be a stockholder. I don't think I'm greedy, I just don't want to be eating cat food when I'm 80.
The greedy people are the people who steal stuff because they expect everything should be free. Yet I'd bet my house you never once volunteered your time to help a community project. Your time is valuable, but everything else should be free, right? |

Quoting Jay:
Printing money heh nah it's not the same as cable theft.
They are both a Federal crime, what's different?
No matter what you goodie 2 shoes say piracy hurts noone.
If being a goody 2 shoes means being honest and not stealing, I'll wear that badge with honor. As for it not hurting anyone, well I don't know of anybody going to the hospital, but theft hurts everyone no matter what the stolen product is.
This society and country is run by corporations and stock holders who are just plain greedy.
It's called Capitalism, don't hate the game just because you can't play by the rules
This didnt stop with the cable company who just happen to be the only service available in my whole state.
So you're telling me you can't get satellite in your state? What planet do you live on anyway?
So now I have a greedy monopoly to deal with just to watch frikkin TV. I'd rather have it all for nothing than a little for a fortune.
Now doesn't that make you greedy too? You'd rather have it all sounds pretty greedy to me
Don't listen to the cable guys hear fellaz, they are just afraid of it costing them their pathetic jobs.
Actually the word is here, hear = something your ears do. I'm not afraid if costing me my job. I've been in the business over 21 years now, my job isn't going anywhere. My job may be pathetic in somebody else's opinion, but it's not so pathetic that I have to steal something because I can't afford it.
Anything can be hacked.
Yes anything can be hacked...the bigger question is are smart enough to do it, and are you dumb enough to think we don't know when it's being done?
You talk a big game, but the bottom line is nobody has provided any information on how to beat the system. Satellite systems are easily hacked, at least from what I hear (<-proper use of the word) maybe you could get one to ease your suffering lol. |

Damnit Cableguy after I read the post from Jay I wanted to tell him what I thought of it but you done took the words right out of my mouth, lol.
What is with all these people that think they deserve free cable just because it's a little spendy, the reason it is more costly than it should be is because of people like them stealling it.
Just like in the local supermarket the honest people have to pay more because of the damn theivs |

I have insight cable and it has been disconnected for months now, only the company never came to pick up the box nor did it unhook my cable on the outside. I still have my cable internet (now a 10 meg connection) and my basic digital cable, with local HD stations. Now, I realize that I have either slipped through some loophole here, or they just aren't very good at this stuff. Previously I was with Comcast in another location, and if your cable was cancelled they could shut off your digital box and cable modem without unhooking from the outside. So what is to stop me from hacking this box, since it is obviously not communicating with the "headender?" Any thoughts on this, and how do I do it? |

Only your technical ability and the laws of physics.
