Try this method mate with the files from the link it will force the flash button to bacome active.

OK mate

Try this hacked DreamUP for clones

http://www.sat-universe.com/showthread.php?t=141826

To use

1. Connect you null cable to the 800 with no power supply connected.

2. Unpack the 2nd stage pack and go in to the folder named different method.

3. Start DreamUp and when it finds you 800 apply the power to the 800, ignore the error message you getting.

4. Now execute the enforcer.exe and press on enable.

You should now see the flash button and be able to select your image and flash it.

Hi,

Do you have any errors on your PC on which you run DreamUP?
Did you tried to set the DreamUP with IP? If not please try it, you need to know your computer IP address and put it in the "Local IP (PC)" and a new IP for the dreambox, which should be in the same class (first group of 3) the same, just last one changed.

After you have set the IP's powerup the dreambox, when flash-loader finished to upload, access your dreambox from your PC with your web-browser, as in stop mode, and upload last used (known working) nfi image.

Good luck,


Marc

Forgot to mention that you need to have an working local network (through switch) or at least an crossover lan cable through DM and your PC, you had to have both, DM and PC in the same network.

Please clarify are you trying this with null cable on its own or with null and Ethernet cable or just Ethernet ?

From what you say above you don't have the NO CA Error so why are you not flashing normally over your browser ?

Hello,

Well, I'am sorry to hear that, in order to understand your problem please give us some more infos.

As so, please answer what Ferret asked and also please answer following questions,

What is not working? The method proposed by me worked every time on my DM800HD PVR Clone. Is fastest way, if you choose to flash through serial cable should take 1 hour and so.

Could you put the IP's into DreamUP?
The Flash-Loader is uploaded to your DM by DreamUP?
Can you access the web interface with your preferred browser accessing the IP set in the beginning on DreamUP?
The DreamUP is detecting the DM, is telling you what version is?
Did you ever used before the method used now and worked?

Do you have any error on your end?


Best Regards,

Hi Ferret,
I have dont the NO CA error. i cant not flasshing over my browser because I cant not in STOP mode.
- power button dont work
- I have no error message

I have tried it on two way with Ethernet and without Ethernet cable ( EIA / TIA -568B:2 CAT5 patch cable)
if I start DreamUp red lamb of Dreambox goes out when flash-loader upload is done, and I have no connection with DM( look at the video).

my local IP is : 192.168.1.7
I also tried different IP addresses
Remote IP (box): 192.168.1.6 ...... 8 ..... 17 ... (latest numbers)

I have also tried dreambox optieflasher, this program is able to connect with DM, same result .. when the flash loader is ready the red lamp of dreambox is off, and no connection with DM

My child likes to play with the power button of DM. he does it on and off , I think he has too much quickly pressed this button
this may be the reason?
would you please watch this video, I do everything right???

Hi,

Your video does not show if the flash-uploder has finish it's job by starting the http service.
Please let me know if you connect the LAN cable direct between your DM and PC, if so, you need to have an crossover cable, if this cable is not crossover one you should use a switch between your DM and PC and two LAN cables.

I have also an usb to rs232 converter/adapter and is working ok, if your DreamUP it see the DM is fine.

At this point you should first try other version of DreamUP and be sure that your LAN cable is crossover, if is not crossover use two cables with a switch between.

How this issue happen with your DM? After flashing an image?

Best regards,

Marc

I have the box disassembled, the power button is OK, nothing is broken or so .. USB serial adapter is also OK, I have with this same cable several times images installed. I think DM is itself broken hardware or software, I dont know
if I plug in power cable I see the logo on the Display multimedia dreambox and red LED light goes out after 1 second, normally this lamp flashes during booting.
has anyone had the same problem?

Mate your using firefox to try connect to your 800 to flash with.

Tyr using Internet Explorer firefox can be temperamental .

Your in HTTP at that point so try IE and make sure all your PC's firewall are down.

Hi Marc,
thanks for you interest.
after flash-loader I get a message on dreamup " initializing HTTP mode " and just hangs on this for as long as i leave it..

Yes I connect the lan cable direct between DM en Laptop.but I'm not sure if this crossover cable is.this my cable : ( EIA / TIA -568B:2 CAT5 patch cable)

usb serial adapter worked very well. without crossover or erthernet, it took a lot of time but it worked well, now is not working

antivirus, firewall was down

Patch cable is the correct one to use with a router. crossover is needed for direct PC to 800 connection.

I take it you have tried another Ethernet cable ?

Hi,

I don't think your LAN cable is crossover, you can easy see if is or not.

Please place both plugs with teethes up and away from you, first teeth from left on the left plug should go to the third teeth on the second plug and second to sixth, basically pins from 1 to 3 and 2 to 6 are interchanged from one plug to other when the cable is crossover.

If is not an crossover cable you need to use two cables and a switch in order to benefit of DreamUP http mode.

Starting and Stopping the DM could create a lot of temporary files on your internal flash, so one cause could be the lack of free space on your flash for mounting /dev and /proc file systems.

Also could determine filesystem inconsistency which could be automatically repaired, not sure if DM has that type of checks during boot time, something alike scandisk on windows, which start automatically at boot time when the PC is not properly shut down.

If it has, this operation could take few minutes to several tens, let it overnight started. :)

My suggestion, is to try to connect your DM with two LAN cables through switch and test agin DreamUP to see if it finalize starting http service.

If you cannot manage to start http service with LAN cables conected the only way to see what happen with your DM is to have an hyperterminal session connected to your current COM port instead of DreamUP and see all boot process output via hyper-teminal, copy and paste all output of the hyper-terminal here please if you don't understand what is there.

HyperTerminal an windows app which should be downloaded and set/started before powering up the DM.


Best regards,


Marc

I did not know, I thought this crossover was
I will buy a crossover

I have now without ethernet cable (or crossover cable) tried directly with USB serial adapter.
DreamUp tell: box type 800HD
flash loader is done
I get now a message "upload completed, waiting for acknowledge ..)
and it hang on to this message

dreamupversion V1.3.3.6 (this version has always worked for me)

Thanks Ferret
