So I've followed the tutorial and the flash seems to work, there is no evocam when I press the blue button, I'm looking at the other plugins. any idea what the process is called so I can search for it using ps?

Must have missed something yogger because the update works perfectly.
Have a look back at the previous posts and read the pitfalls.

Marky back from your ban and still not contributing anything to help the users, oh dear some people never change.
On second thoughts maybe you think you are helping?

By the way you only get "personal attacks" because you only supply negative posts inviting "personal attacks" That`s why you got banned.
What do you have to offer to the forum after your ban?
Please tell us all how you finally got your dm500 running or does Chris`s image still not work?

BTW users this guy, as you have gathered, was banned for his remarks he previously made on this forum.

Please contribute help to this forum Markarman or please don`t post at all.

this thread has been loads of help to me in learning how to fly my new 500-c... and full of helpfull tips... just a shame though that it seems people forget that a respect for someone's technical ability doesn't really equate to real respect.. and to be honest i reckon you should take your head out of your arses... none of you lot actually wrote any of the software.. wiki the meaning of a forum.. pick your sorry ass out of your *bleep* sodden gas-lift office chair... and stop trying to *bleep* your own *bleep*.

Hows about creating a new tread with the images and guide needed, and make it sticky... then newbies wont have to read this 51 page thread, risk asking the wrong question and being insulted, then some of you lot might even get some extra free time and probably fit in a few more *bleep*.

First off, keep your filth to yourself and off our forums.
Secondly there's usually a reason why some threads balloon to so many pages (we have many threads here much much longer and for the same reason) - instead of people taking the few posts that actually detail the required help, and running with it, they balloon the thread out of control with endless questions that are always already answered within the thread. Being technically lacking is not an excuse for people not understanding simple straightforward answers then asking them endlessly. Asking genuine (non-asked) questions is of course fine, but when a thread hits 50+ pages there's obviously something going amiss.
Thirdly, any insults will be dealt with, but your filthy outburst probably far outstrips anything that's been said previously i'll bet.

To summarise, there's only so many times people can post the same answers, it should be obvious that if someone needs help they should be prepared to read thru a thread if it's 50 or 250 pages long, after all it's free advice and spoonfeeding teaches no-one. If an answer isn't understood after reading, then asking is fine, but please put in the effort to read first.
Imagine this, i personally have zero interest in these darned boxes but i have the pleasure of lurking on threads such as this. If i can do it so can you.


edit- any regulars please bear in mind that your own comments can trigger outbursts such as the above so please mind what/how you post. Phase123/cgscott/markarman (there may be others) - this includes you.
Just remember, no-one is ever forced to post. If there's nothing worth saying, don't say it. By the same token you can't force people to not be lazy/spoonfed, all we can do is try and persuade them to put a little effort in for themselves. They were quick enough to buy these boxes after all.

i only ever doubted cg scott when he originally posted his fix. if you take the time to read through the thread as you so pompously tell others to do you will see that actually at the time i doubted his fix it wasnt working. (i know i tried it)and other people commented on it too, cg scott did get it working and he was informed that you need to click no to flash erase when prompted to make his fix work 100%. something i have read him advise others many times. however, it is working now and has been working for some time so fair play to him. i for one am grateful for his efforts and time spent.
some other people have contributed nothing on here but still beleive they can attack others, then they even admit to personal attacks and try to justify it by saying the victims of these attacks contribute nothing. contributing nothing i would suggest is preferable to contributing vile and poison and smart "google it" comments that are pure badness. contributing nothing certainly doesn't justify personal attacks and bullying, that says more about the person who tries to justify them than it says about anyone else.

as said previously to phase 123 "way to let it go "

i beleive thats what i said when i got suspended lol.
(didnt bother me then either.)

shouldnt really have posted this as its of no help whatsoever, but i apologise as i just couldnt resist winding phase123 up again.

this thread should be closed as it has now just plunged into so much irrelavance it is laughable. ego's are being massaged and innocence are being insulted. that should be reason enough to end the thread.

someone earlier said start a new thread with stickies. i would love to see chris start this as he is THE ONLY person on here qualified to do so.
i know (unlike some others) that my abilities are limited but i do not try to subsidise my inability be jumping on other peoples band wagons,trying to make me sound as though i know what i am talking about. and insulting others, thentrying to justify it !!!!!!

lmao

this cable guy thread is dead.

long live the cable guy's thread !!!

I'd just commented and you were daft enough to start it up again ?, stupidness knows no bounds i take it. Off to the naughty step you go again then.

Now the thread can get back on track.

from the naughty step i would like to quote:-

"some people offer nothing to this forum and go out of their way to doubt and insult other contributors."

this was posted before my post and no action was taken.

nepotism knows no bounds !!

good luck !!

markarman - your childish act of signing up of a new account just to spout off again speaks volumes. That account has been deactivated and if you do that again your original account will be permanently deactivated also.

Wait out the suspension of your original account otherwise i will permanently remove you and keep removing any subsequent accounts.

I had intervened in the thread earlier, yet you still had the nerve (and lack of common sense) to spout off, whereas the other 2 guys i'd previously named had calmly apologised. Says it all really.

Creaky how can someone post when they have been Suspended Permanently?
Seems to defeat the purpose.
I`ve no problem with the guy posting and if he has problems he would like resolved, perhaps he has a unique situation which I`m sure we would like to know about. It`s all about knowledge.
It seems by his remarks though that he would rather sling mud than contribute positive help to this forum. Pity.

Thanks again for your monitoring of these forums and the sensible decisions you make, without this, this particular thread would be nonsensical.
Much appreciated.

Guys

Can anyone help me please? I'm pulling my hair out (and I've only just grown it!)

I'm following the tutorial - I've gotten as far as trying to connect to my dreambox and I'm getting an error 10057 message.

I'm a 'little bit' green when it comes to these things but I've been at this for 10 days now.

I'm looking for an working image for a dreambox 500c - N*L living in Dublin!

Any help at all would be greatly appreciated

I've tried to flash the image with a null cable and with an ethernet cable. Neither have made any difference. Any other ideas?

It's been months since I've had to do this but, from what I remember, don't even connect (via cable) your box to PC until Dreamup requests you to 'turn on'.
