  • NoCAerror repair in this toolbox ive added

  • cheers same tool i have already used but no joy. Im starting to think it is my cable. im using a rs232 to usb and then what i thought was a female to female null modem cable but as it does not detect the dreambox im now unsure. i have ordered another null modem cable off the net hopefully that will be more like it.


    has anyone ever seen a box be totally dead and not respond on rs232 just encase my problem is some how different?


    the no ca error shows up pretty quickly and no button combination etc will take it out of that mode.


    also the Ethernet port are light up regardless of any connectivity

  • It wa smy cable, it was an RS232 not a null
    got a new cable and repaired the no ca error


    other problem now;


    uploaded the ssl84d bootloader ok
    but now the new image im using wont upload
    click flash does nothing but hang

  • used ie 11, and chrome and firefox no joy just hangs when i hit flash.
    trying with dreamup now via http,
    seems to be taking an awful long time calculating check-sum
    as its going via http i wouldnt expect it to be any slower than the browser? is it work me trying to upload via rs232 assuming that will take forever and a day

    uploaded with dreamup adn i got this error


    flashing failed (!!! 002 CRC Failed), Box will be unusable now!!


    have i just bricked the damn thing?

    think i managed to save it back on the #82 bootloader now


    now last time round i went straight from 82 to 84d which caused problems any advice better upgrading to a lower version first?

    sorted it! just kept trying finally loaded, thanks for the help

  • Cheers i now have BlackHole-SSL-dm800 image on, im trying to use this box for a cable share.
    my tuner config is set to uk brute force
    cables.xml updatef
    auto scan only picks up 112 services? that cant be right? what am i missing

  • Cheers Guys, Up & Running i can see VM Chans, Finally some HD!!!
    This was basically just to test, had this dm800 for about a year just couldnt be arsed to do anything with it, lack of hd finally kicked me up the ass.


    i now have a problem which you might be able to help with. i want to run the dm800 sat and dm800 cable simultaneously
    problem is the remotes work on either box.


    i.e. i go chan up on the dm800 (cable) sat box will jump as well.


    anyway i can do something about that?


    there are what looks like some jumper pins just above battery compartment but i could be wrong,

  • did you get the no ca fixed , ive tryed a few tyms on ma clone 800hd fixed a few times buit now its nio plyin at all , i need to repolace the chip as its degraded as cheap shit
    i always got back alive via a openpli image wsith nought on it minimum 38mg if i mind then i could put a later oimkage on it , biut liek i say its dead now without chip swap
