    Warning: Please consider updating your rescue loader!


    Try flashing the factory firmware with Optiflasher, then try updating the rescue loader with these commands:


    wget http://dreamboxupdate.com/opendreambox/2.5/stable/images/dm900/zImage-rescue-3.14-r0-dm900-20190911.bin

    flash-rescue zImage-rescue-3.14-r0-dm900-20190911.bin

    apt-get update && update-rescue -v

  • Now I am able to put in recovery mode.


    this is what I got

  • No, it is original. I bought it From Dream Multimedia Shop in Dubai.

    any Way, using ( OptiFlasher_DMipsV3.0.5.0) I was able to bring my DM900 live again, but only using OLD images:

    newinigma

    openpli

    dreamelit


    it works on these very old images but not the new ones.


    I was usinh openAtv image, it was the best, but now the dream 900 is not accepting any new image.

    BTW the (OptiFlasher_DMipsV3.0.5.0) only accept images with the extension XZ

    any IDEAS


    regards

    BTW the (OptiFlasher_DMipsV3.0.5.0) only accept images with the extension XZ

    any IDEAS

    I`ve repacked the latest OpenATV 6.4 image to the tar.xz extension. Give that a try in OptiFlasher.

    If you want any other images in this extension let me know. Or if you have a linux operating system like ubuntu etc, i can show you how to repack images yourself.

  • thank you , but my DM900 accept only this image:

    dreambox-image-deb-dm900-20181119.tar.xz


    any other image, it only STUCK on RED LIGHT.

    I dont know what the problem is. if any body can help me.


    another QUESTION: please help me install E2Iplayer (IPTV) Plugn on the above image


    Does RESET FACTORY SETTING  help solving my Problem?


    THESE ARE THE ONLY IMAGES MY DM900 ACCEPY

    thanks

    Now that you have got a working image, try updating to the latest rescue loader with the commands i gave you above.

    DM900 Not BOOTING (STUCK On RED LIGHT)

    This might help you load the latest images.


    Here is another thread with the exact same problem that was fixed with the instructions i gave you.

    dm900 Please consider updating your rescue loader!


    another QUESTION: please help me install E2Iplayer (IPTV) Plugn on the above image

    Those old images you are using won`t have the dependencies to run E2Iplayer, so i would forget about that plugin until you can update to a recent image.

    Does RESET FACTORY SETTING help solving my Problem?

    No, it just removes any settings you have made. The image will stay the same.

    You`ll need to run the setup wizard again.


  • thank you. I will try update my rescue loader.


    just to confirm: if I use the following Command ,

    wget http://dreamboxupdate.com/opendreambox/2.5/stable/images/dm900/zImage-rescue-3.14-r0-dm900-20190911.bin

    flash-rescue zImage-rescue-3.14-r0-dm900-20190911.bin

    apt-get update && update-rescue -v


    this will update my rescue loader?


    regards

  • I used this image (dreambox-image-deb-dm900-20190911.tar.xz) with OPTIFLASHER

    and the DM900 is LIVE again


    the 3 COMMANDS were executed perfectly as follows

    but please help me with E2Iplayer

    Once you have restored the factory firmware, try PurE2 instead. But don`t flash with Optiflasher. Put the box into rescue mode then flash via a browser.

    All the plugins you need can be downloaded from the image feed/menu.
