Problem with Spark

paranoiac · Nov 23rd 2015

my spark stopped responding to channel changing. Menu worked fine, so I upgraded to latest official spark, still no signal and no channel changing. Tried factory default, erased all channels, but when I go to satellite install and configure everything the signal quality moves to 100% (I usually have 93%-96%) and the scan is stuck. I tried the rescue image of older spark version, but it's the same. When I switch to E2 everything works perfectly, (channels, USAL, satellites, etc. Any idea about this problem? Does the Pingulux have two tuners? Any suggestions about a good, stable E2 firmware if my spark is beyond repair?

Did you try flashing the latest image from USB instead of doing upgrade?

YES Several times ....
thank you

I connected the decoder with hyperterminal and after he booted me from these mistakes:

If you can boot to enigma, you can try to flash_eraseall the spark partition.

Code

[root@stlinux]#cat /proc/mtd 




Example output:
dev: size erasesize name 
mtd0: 00060000 00010000 "NOR U-BOOT : 0xA000.0000-0xA005.FFFF (384KB)"
mtd1: 00500000 00010000 "NOR ROOT : 0xA008.0000-0xA07F.FFFF (5MB)"
mtd2: 002a0000 00010000 "NOR ROOT : 0xA008.0000-0xA07F.FFFF (2.7MB)"
mtd3: 00800000 00020000 "NAND Spark Kernel"

mtd6: 07700000 00020000 "NAND Enigma2 User fs"

Find the mtd partition with the "Spark Root fs" (in this case mtd4)

then run

Code

flash_eraseall -N /dev/mtd4

replacing mtd4 if necessary...

The try reflashing from USB.

Thanks joe user,
because they are inexperienced e2 .... then I start to do telnet from those commands?
can you tell me how to do step pèasso?
Thank you

**joeuser** · Nov 24th 2015

yes, telnet to the box and try first command and post the output. "cat /proc/mtd"

Sent from my KFTT using Forum Fiend v1.3.3.

paranoiac · Nov 24th 2015

Hello joe user, I did the procedure to hold as described .... but with no signal spark system and does not make me change the channel .... I enclose what I've done from telnet to see if you can fix it.
Thank you

**joeuser** · Nov 24th 2015

Looks like maybe some bad flash memory??
try

Code

flash_erase /dev/mtd4 0 0

Thanks joeuser......I tried (flash_erase / dev / mtd4) does not work ................
I reloaded the boot of pingulux with hyperterminal ... and I put both successivamende Rescue Image Pingulux 1.2.65 ..... then pingulux_edision_1.2.80_app ... but nothing ... and yet Edision_Argus_Pingulux_V1.1.29 _-_ HELP_PACK. ... same result ....

**pauldb** · Nov 25th 2015

just wondering spark put a time bomb in there images for clones, for the 8900

so just wondering if yours is a clone

- - - Updated - - -

you can try the clone safe software see if that makes a differance, but its all done at risk

Thanks pauldb........no clone is a edision pingulux

What is the output from the last flash_erase command?
Also, since you have the serial console connected, can you show all the output when you try to flash the pingulux rescue image?

Looks like it is trying to skip the bad block in the flash, but it still gets errors reading. Not sure best way to try and fix. I will write if I think of something...

Hello joeuser,
we hope to solve because spark works better than e2
Thank you so much

Finally I looked up those errors and they are normal for a first boot because no settings were saved yet, so it uses the defaults.

Are there more errors later?

It seems the same thing ......
thank you

And what about rebooting without flashing and viewing the output?

There is a way to get more output, but it involves changing the u-boot environment.

Safest way is through the serial port, other way is from enigma2.

First step would be to boot to enigma, telnet to box and run:

Code

insmod i2s
fw_printenv

and post the output (it will be long.)

BTW - to post long output use the "code" button (#) and paste between the tags:
