amiko help please

Where did you get the box as the default password is 00000000 unless you paid for a line in which the guy you bought it off has locked down that menu.
You could serial to the box and reflash.

OK I've used this method to get around the locked password and ill pass on the same advice i was given which is.....Buy Pre-Configured Boxes And always make sure you have the changed password before its sent or your locked into their deals and alot dont unlock the box it forces you to buy a new box. there maybe some bits here that say attached or linked ive used tyhis advice on a few forums to pass on i wont give firmware out its easy enough to use the 2 names ive added Lavtronics or Amiko EVO

(Toolbox for Amiko 3612) needed to load and flash the firmware via the RS232 lead.

Here are the firmware files - Select The Latest For Your Box - Google the 2 Options under this...:
Lavatronics Download Centre | Amiko EVO Optibox Opticum

You will need one of these:
9 Pin RS232 Serial Port to 3.5mm Jack Programming Cable - look on eBay - around £9

1, Attach the RS232 Serial lead to the serial port of your chosen PC/laptop

2, Attach the 3.5mm jack into the Amiko's RS232 serial port (3rd from the power) but do not switch it on (no power) See step 10

3, Run the Toolbox for Amiko 3612 - turn the music option off (its annoying)

4, Select LOADER AMIKO

5, Click BROWSE and find the LAVATRONICS-282E-ALLSD+FTAHD-211014-COMBO (or whichever one you decide to use from the link - this is the one I used though) - so browse to where you saved this file.

6, Click serial port drop down (I think mine worked on com1) so try COM1 - if not work your way thru it may be COM2 or 3

7, Click Upgrade type drop down and select ALL SW + BOOTLOADER

8, Mode setting is UPGRADE

9, Click NEXT and turn on the power to the Amiko - if the serial port (com 1 etc) is right, you wont get a 'cant find serial port' message, and the lights on the display will flash like a mad thing - DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING!!!!

10, NOTE: If the above doesn't work, try steps 3 to 9 with the Amiko powered on but simply remove and re-insert the serial jack in the Amiko after step 9 (I did this a while ago so cant remember the exact sequence)

11, It will take a while but when finished will show ON (as I recall) on the display. Ideally, if you can attach the HDMI cable and watch on the TV, you should see the AMIKO boot up and so you will know 100% when its done.

Thats the way to do it alright lol sorry did not get back to you been busy.
Have to flash quite a few of these boxes as some people tend to flash with wrong software and mess up the boxes.
Glad your sorted

I need help in adding ccam or mgcamd to open ATV on my amiko alien mini through usb possible because dcc does not connect to the box. I also need help conneting my box to DCC. Any help please.

I don't think the mini is a linux receiver (reason why dcc won't connect).
You'll need patched/modified firmware for emulators.
Have a look here:
