How did you learn mate?
Did you get someone to come and fix the telly because you couldn`t wire the plug?
Have you all never heard of Google?
That`s how I learned but it`s too easy to ask someone when you`ve wired the plug the wrong way but you`ve not paid your electricity bill.
Good luck mate... too many people here who won`t help themselves.
What`s is happening here is what is commonly known as "shitting in your own nest"
Goodbye
Thsnkyou Phase123
I would quite happily fix all these boxes at a small fee plus p&p.
Sometimes i think it would be easier to give up.
I appreciate what you done earlier stepping in mate and hope to see you back here later as once this flash problem is out the way then we can get onto ftp and showing people what this box is capable of.
Cheers
Chris

Hi Phase123, sorry I really didn't mean to piss you off. I really appreciate ANY and ALL the help you have given me. It's just I was talking to Chris lastnight about this and PM'd me tonight in the midst of it all. I'm completely new to this game and I managed to update my own EuRo vox by reading the tutorials and such and all went fine. The D'ream is NO DREAM but more of a NIGHTMARE. Please don't take offence by my asking Chris for advice. I assure you no snub was intended.
Kindest regards, Wizkid9

I have known Phase123 over the forums for a few years now. He has as much input into this sort of material as i do. That is why i thanked him earlier when i had to leave.

Hey Wizkid9
You are not pissing me off.
Just a bit annoyed when I tried to help you asked him when he said he was tired.
I was a newbie once.
It annoys me when people won`t search the forums.
This topic has 34 pages!
Cgscott has posted a tutorial that has worked for most people.
I`ve read it and know it works.
If it does not then I`m almost positive it`s a mistake by the user.
Good luck and Goodnight

Hi cgscott,
A friend ask me to try and sort out his D******x 500c, I,m not very familiar with these boxes.
I would like to do it via null cable and just want to check that the last image works with ch***s irl and is there any other info i need before i start.
If image dosn`t work with ch***s could you tell me one that does via null cable.
Thanks.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok first things first. You will need a program called dreamup. I will post it in this link for you.
http://www.dream-multimedia-tv.de/download/DreamUP.zip
Then download this image. The null modem one. Save this to desktop.
http://rapidshare.com/files/110539456/dwemptyautoroll.img.html
You need to plug the null from the box to pc.
With the dreambox switched off start up dreamup program.
Then untick use network box. Then click connect. Startup the dreambox.
It will connect. The flash box will then open. Click this it will ask for image. The image you downloaded open that. Then it will flash the image to your box.
When flashing the image it will ask you to do a flash erase click no.
when the image has down loaded connect the box back up.
Scan using N*L Bruteforce
Reboot the box select SS1 and press the blue button
Press ok on the Evovamd
Screen remains black for a couple of mins
Hey Presto-----------------
Put full trust in him
cgscott is a legend

sorry mate you have a uk ip address
thats just a fact........
I think you should really take that up with I*ish B*oad. and not me.
does any other person on this forum know who irish broad is ?
i have never heard of them myself.
this post was from a uk ip address.............
chris,
no more sour grapes mate your doing a great job and you will be the saviour of me and many others with your fixes.... i am sure of this.
you really dont need to blow your own trumpet we can all see your good work and we will all benefit from your expertise eventually
take it easy mate and keep up the good work but stop getting personal i have nothing but respect for your input into this problem.
i really mean that with nothing but respect and honesty.
please believe me.
i look forward to re - gaining your friendship.
remember i was one of the first people on here you helped out.
please mate lets all relax.
your admirer
markarman
It is Irish Broadband, open your ears and listen what people are telling you instead of thinking you know it all.
Twit.
i do not think i know it all, just read this and many other forums and you will se me asking for advice and help. this is not the actions of a man who thinks he knows it all.
my ears are well and truly open and i have received loads of help from chris and others on this forum. i have also posted my thanks for this help.
i will continue to look for and hopefully receive help.
but joxer you have a u.k. ip address. i dont know it all but i do know that. can you explain how you tested the fix in ireland then post to this forum from the u.k. something else i do not pretend to know how to do.....
as for calling me a twit i agree i am a twit and a lot of other things, but hopefully i am learning and this condition of mine is improving all the time.
one thing i am not however, is pretending to be someone i am not, i.e. an irish broad band user with a u.k. ip address.
any-hoo........
tried phase 123's fix last night, i.e. ftp'ing the new nagra roms into the scce file on my dreambox using my bother in laws hub.
the dreambox rebooted ok but i didnt have to do a new scan because i ftp'd the new files into the existing image dw v 1.6.5
so now i am just waiting for nt hell to start their jiggery pokery with changing codes to be able to confirm it's working.should be today at some point if they stick with their usual form of doing it when theres a match on.
thanks all
long live the cable guy
I dont know why I am even bothering to reply to your post but I just dont like to be called a liar. What advantage would it be to anyone for me to claim that I am in Ireland and realy be in the UK. I thought the idea of a forum was for people to help each other and to learn from other peoples expierences instead of doubting and disbeliving what people are telling you.
Its a pity that you had to buy a crossover cable for yourself because I could have made one for you F.O.C. and you could have picked it up from me, seen as how I also live in D.12. But in order to pick it up you would have had to meet me in The Sub tomorrow for lunch.
P.S. Watch out for the road resurfacing by Siac on Cromwellsfort Rd. for S.D.C.C. it started on Thursday.
All sent from a UK IP?
Regards J.

Please read the previous posts.. it does!
not saying it will not work in Ireland i was saying people with a working image in england does not mean it will work in Ireland, as the person in england has no way of testing it over there so that's why we require feed back to help each other, we are all in the same boat but reading some posts certain people are beginning to sink it, so all chill out and help each other solve this problem, as we all rely on others to help us out

This is a fresh image not a backup of my box.
I started from scratch so it is just a working image.
The images have autoroll and have scanning for every service provider.
Once installed it will ask you to do a scan. There is a list of diffrent scan i.e uk, ntl ireland etc
Make sure you scan your area.
Once you have done this. select a channel wait at least 1 minute if the channel does not start press the blue button and press ok on evocam 2.12. This will start the cam. And you will get your channels.
This is a fix for everyone and especially the irish boxes so that you dont have the double channel problem

I have flashed a box using both methods and can tell you now that they work.
Tested myself. So guys get Loading.

Hi, I used the dwemptyautoroll.fw2 image - all worked well insofar as the new software worked fine on the box. Followed all instructions - rebooted, started Evovamd. Selected a channel (any channel), but the picture stayed black. Teletext and EPG were working fine -- just no picture.
In the end, I manually updated, using ftp, the keys.txt file with the latest keys, and hey presto, everything is now working.
So, question is, what did I do wrong? Should I have updated keys.txt first? Will autoroll work? Any pointers will be gratefully accepted.

not tried myself but apparently the image does work.
(and i do not doubt it)
i was told:-
when using the null modem cable method when it asks to perform a flash erase click no.
according to whizkid 9 thats the newbie mistake people are making. thats not to say i solved this myself as i know nothing... lol
gonna try it myself soon
thanks chris i will post my thanks when i have managed to test myself.
good luck
long live the cable guy !!
