hi, it happened to me once too... the reason is certainly the kernel which is not compatible with the soft that you sent previously,

1* you have to keep your thumb on the Red LED... and turn on the power ...you will have to do this several times until it works...a friend of mine confirmed that he was able to revive with my backup but he only sent the file...(rootfs.tar.bz2)...any will do doft with that file,

2* you just have to press your thumb on the red LED and turn on the power, if not there is only another way (mini usb) as is done with 800se...but you have to download the driver for the mini usb.

hi, Thank's for your attention

the box is already goes to rescue mode by turning on the device

but how can i send the (rootfs.tar.bz2) ?

and where can i find or download this?

1* what PC do you use...??

2* the front lights up...only red LED,

3* if you are near Milan I can give you a hand....and then if you can use DCC to enter the decoder to change the boot folder...I have I did a similar thing on Mutants 51 4k, I managed to restore it with the files that I posted on a forum that I changed in the decoder and it worked restored by installing soft with USB.

1. i'm using a dell pc

2. yes just red light and DREAMBOX logo on Pannel

3. no i'm not near yo bro

I had the same problem with my dm 920.

I do that with openatv 6.3

How did you do that?

i have the same problem

Hi everyone

PLEASE HELP ME TO CORRECT THE PARTITION TABLE OF MY DM 920

is anybody connected to the gutemine? i think he can help me

i found the problem :

look, the default target device is /dev/mmcblk0p2 but in my device all addresses are something else (mtdblock0,1,2,3,4) :

HOW IT CAN BE ???

i have lost my box for ever i think

i tried to update it but this is the result

and the box is running just in rescue mode so i can't upload any firmware

i have to check it,

thank you

Hi sir

i don't have any power supply, i have to find or buy some

i just hve the default power supply.

no i have never used any multiboot

i already tried this :

sgdisk /dev/mtdblock0 -z -n 1:2048:65535 -c 1:kernel -t 1:8301 -n

2:65536:4194303 -c 2:rootfs -t 2:8307 -n 3:4194304: -c 3:data -t 3:8300

but this is the output :
