This is the date the driver was uploaded/FTPed to the image/box !
Download the file and put on MEGA (give me download link), and I will tell you the exact date of compilation.
Found on our patched database drivers... your driver Sim 2.30 is from April 2018 ... see at Address : 4EA5E8.
20180409-dm900-4-g9e86

P.S.: last image for sim 2.30 clone dm900 dates from November 2019.
Driver is far much older... get the file and check the date in the bcm7439.ko file. GUI shows only the ipk name / date of the originally installed driver on the original image when it was compiled... not the VERY OLD bcm driver file that was replaced with... FYI.

Display MoreYou can see it on the Gui information page.
Published images have VERY VERY OLD drivers, at least 3 years old...
EmoDo you mean the Information/About screen of the receiver ? No cpu info there for me on Dream Elite.
The old drivers are immaterial if they match the image/kernel.
The drivers are VERY important... otherwise there would not be so much interest to update them... including bug fixes !
On OpenPLi its on the GUI Information menu.

FTP/Telnet/SSH/Putty not working

Congratulations, well done !

Yes
dreamos softwares are disaster and not flexible in my opinion
a lot of pain if i obligated to do some codes within this enviroment.
old packages,bad webinferface and many green crashes and many others.
Thats why we are building our own OpenPLi 7.2star, BlackHole and PurE2.

Reflash new image, if possible recent from 2020

Just put the link in your browser, and click on the download button (and not import in your Mega account if you dont have one).

Quick question to the developers. Apart from bcm7405.ko and SSL84D, is there any other patch applied on these images? If i try to use a clean openpli 7.2 source, the tunner always comes up as "empty". Don't get me wrong, I like to know what i'm installing on my home devices
You replied to yourself, if tuner is not visible then the answer is Yes... you surely missed something in the patching and most probably related to the driver.
Emo
What about the driver for the ethernet port ? If there were two versions did they write the driver for both scenarios ?
As bibic told, the backup of your image that freeze could help, but the tester would need to be in the exact same situation as you with a clone and your sim/driver.
Only on such condition and if the backup never freeze we could consider the fault not the image, so something else.
We had a user that had a freeze problem on his DM900UHD clone, and we discovered that he was using the PSU of his old DM that was 3 Amp instead of the one provided that is 5 Amp... since he used the good one he never had any problem.
So for us if its not the PSU, then it would be a fault in the image (could be a plugin installed !), it could be the driver related to your sim no properly patched or originally buggy too...
If you have anything connected to the box, like USB devices or even HDD internal, these could consume too much and get the box stuck... so use low consumption HDD and even during testing of the problem I would remove completely the HDD that is one of the potential reason of too much current/power used in the box.

Codei can't download this is there any other link i can download thanks in advance
The link is perfectly working, you have to copy/paste it and use it in your browser,

The clones had (the 2 I have) the 100 Mbps chip instead of the Gigabit. You are correct, they offered to return it to China to replace it, but I think nobody really done it... but I dont think they ever produced a Clone right away with the Gigabit chip.

The only difference (Clone/Original) is the Chip/Sim and Memory Boot Partition, but you can swap and it works as Original, or as Clone, how you want.
That is my opinion.
Are you saying you can put a genuine (A8P ?) dm900 sim in a clone and it will work fine and accept genuine images ?
emosim replied above the hardware is different between clone and genuine.
No it will NOT work...

Display MoreDisplay MoreHello all.
I got the exactly same problem, HDMI CEC disabled do not matter is my experience..
I have tried atleast a dusin images the last two years, also with multibot, an so on.
Sometimes it run for hours, sometimes for days, sometimes for weeks before it freezes.
I changed to Japhar sim, but to no avail, same freezing.. :-(.

When mine freezes the clock on the lcd is still illuminated but does not advance. Telnet and FTP are dead/not responding. Not responding to remote control.
Is your softcam still connected to another box ? Can you ping the box ?

Ruben,
We dont find you on our members who bought the Japhar Sim for DM900UHD, do you have the VIP number ? And advise us with which image for DM900UHD you had freezes ?
Thanks,
Emo
for now,i do not think anybody interested in cloning this bad box.
The hardware box is good and impatiently waiting for the DreamSeven (DM920UHD like but chipset of DreamOne)... the issue is having good software... reason we concentrate on building an OpenPLi for it as well as the BlackHole and PurE2 of our friend Delfi.

Which image are you using,
Clone hardware is different from Original, it was an Original DM900UHD problem (Motherboard dies, no communication from CPU), but never seen a report about the Original DM920UHD or the Clone DM900UHD.
Look instead into the image and/or plugin you would have installed that would cause such freeze (related to network communication RJ45 or PSU that doesnt supply the 5 Amp or the Softcam as seenin other boxes as the reason of freezes) and driver of the image in use (exact date of the real driver as the one shown on the GUI is not valid if the bcm ko file was replaced for patching the image).
The dead DM900UHD seems to be mixed to this software freeze problem... check what freeze, check if RC works, check if you can connect to box, etc.
I had the experience just yesterday on an original DM900UHD of a freeze, oscam wasnt accessible as a server but was still communicating as a client with the other box and was in the facts alive...
This is related to software/plugins/drivers, and I never had any freeze/stop if my two DM900UHD clone with the OpenPLi 7.2star image in 2 years with latest and updated Japhar drivers.

Image bug... hardware is ok.
