Hi all,

I've followed quite a lot of the discussion, but I can't get my box working easily (its a sagem dbox, with a sportster image, receiving VM in the East Midlands area).
Trying the key method, when I change them and save, they have changed back when I look again. In fact I can't change any settings on the box (eg autoupdate, evocam settings etc)! Is there a simple reason for this? This is preventing me from working thru the solutions. Maybe I should just flash a new image and start from scratch....

Ta in advance to all you helpful people...

Tom

Morning all.

I have a Sagem DBOX 2 Sportster version 1.72. I have read through this thread however still can't resolve my problem.

When i press the blue button twice the only two options that show up at EMU selection and Restart DBOX. EMU selection allows me to restart EVOCAMD.

I can not find Tux Box Commander or "force key" or keyfile.txt anywhere.

I have also found a site where i've downloaded a TUX BOX commander on my pc, if this is any help? Just wondering whether if anyone can help me on the next steps to take

Thanks in advance

Haven't tried this yet, should that be my next move? Is it better/easier to use DBOX Command Centre?

Cheers!

is this correct...

1: get software on your pc. (flashfxp) in the download section.

2: hook up your dbox to your router - switch or directly to your pc via a cross over cable. you will have to assign a static ip for both systems for it to connect if using this method.

3: setup your dbox network options to have an ip address similar to that of your network, ie 192.168.1.5 or 192.168.0.5, if your stuck you can check your network setup in vista buy pressing (start) in the text box type run, press enter

in the small dialog box type in "cmd" without the quotes, in the black console window type in "ipconfig /all" again with out the quotes..this will produce your network ip

once you have all this sorted..
open up flash fxp click the lightning bolt on the right side..
go to quick connect input your box ip, username, password,
normaly uname: root pass: dbox2

that should give you access to your box...

the file metioned can be found here:
http://rapidshare.com/files/106657439/u-boot.mot.html


How To Flash A Dbox2 Using Serial Cable Only.

This guide has been written for those who, like myself, found that
the only avenue left open to them was to flash their Dbox2 using a serial
modem lead, as the normal method of using Image Flashing Assistant
(IFA) had not been successful. Make sure before you start this procedure
that you print this info out to make it easier to follow and that you place
the attached file (u-boot.mot) in the root of C drive.

Ignore all quotes "" as they are simply there to simplify
matters. Please note that all the input text is "case sensitive" so keep it
in lower case only, no CAPITALS.

To start with switch off Dbox from the mains and connect it to
your PC using serial modem cable only, as this method does not require
the use of any network cables or ports. Start up your computer and then
start Hyper Terminal by selecting "Start", then "Run" and then type in
"hypertrm". This will start Hyper Terminal.

Hyper Terminal first asks you to give the new connection a name
and an icon, so call the session "dbox" but we can forget about the icon.
Click OK. Then when it says "Connect using" select your appropriate com
port, usually com1. DO NOT select TCP/IP (Winsock). Then you have
to configure the Com port properties, any errors here and the PC will not
communicate with the Dbox, so please double check they are as
follows:-

Bits per second - 9600
Data bits - 8
Parity - None
Stop bits - 1
Flow control - Xon/Xoff

Press OK to save settings once you have double checked they are as
above. Hyper Terminal should now say that it is "connected" in the
bottom left hand corner of its window. Now press and hold the "UP"
button on your Dbox (not the remote) and turn the power to it back on.
Once you see writing like the example given below displayed in the
Hyper Terminal window it is safe to release the UP button (normally
within seconds).

dbox2:root>

At the prompt type "dl 800000" then press Enter. This message
should appear "S record load, offset: 800000"
OK, now click on the "Transfer" tab at the top of Hyper Terminal and
select "send text file", then when the pop up box appears select "All
Files" from the drop down menu at the bottom and then you can
negotiate to the location that you have stored the file named "u-
boot.mot", for this example we will use the root of C drive. Once you
have found it click on it and press "Open" to start the file transfer. At this
point you need to find something to do for 45 minutes or so :). There is
also no on screen verification that it is actually doing anything, but have
faith.

After the file has been successfully transferred this message should
appear:-

"dl: start address 0x800000"
"dbox2:root >"
"dbox2:root >"

If so then type in the following:-

"chorus 800000" then press Enter. This process starts the file we have
just downloaded. We need to stop the attempted connection by pressing
the "ctrl" and "c" keys together (ctrl+c) on the keyboard. You need to do
this two or three times until the message "Abort" appears. Then type the
following:-

"loadb 120000 115200" then press Enter. U-boot announces "## Switch
Baud rate to 115200 bps and press ENTER...". In Hyper Terminal stop
the connection by selecting "Call" then "Disconnect". Click "File" then
"Properties" then "Configure" and change the "Bits per second" from
"9600" to "115200". Click on OK twice to leave the menus.

Select "Call" from Hyper Terminal then "Call" from its menu to
reconnect to Dbox. Press Enter on the keyboard to proceed to next step.
U-boot announces "## ready for binary (Kermit) download to
0x00120000 at 115200 bps". Click on "Transfer" again on the top of
Hyper Terminal and select "Send File". At this point you direct the
program to the image that you wish to download into your Dbox. Just
use any one of the images available from the download section as they
are all "Without Bootloader" already. Once image is selected choose
"Kermit" Protocol from the drop down menu at the bottom. Click on
"Send". At this point you need to find something to do for another 45
minutes or so :). However, this time you can clearly see the progress of
the transmitted file within Hyper Terminal and the LCD on the Dbox will
show "loading kernel" during the process.

After transfer is complete u-boot announces:-
"## total size = 0x007E0000 = 8257536 bytes"
"## start ADDR = 0x00120000"
"## Switch baud rate to 9600 bps and press ESC"
In Hyper Terminal stop the connection by selecting "Call" then
"Disconnect". Click "File" then "Properties" then "Configure" and change
the "Bits per second" back from "115200" to "9600". Click on OK twice to
leave the menus. Select "Call" from Hyper Terminal then "Call" from its
menu to reconnect to Dbox. Press "Escape" key on the keyboard to
proceed to next step. U-boot prompt appears again " = > " so finally
type in these instructions:-

"protect off 10020000 107fffff" then press Enter.
"erase 10020000 107fffff" then press Enter and wait approx 1 minute till
it erases all sectors (70 in total).
"cp.l 120000 10020000 1f8000" then press Enter. This starts the internal
Image Flashing process. Wait approx 2 minutes and "Done" should
appear in Hyper Terminal window.

Shut down Hyper Terminal program
(you need not save anything) unplug Dbox2 from the mains and remove
serial lead too. Then apply power to your Dbox2 and hopefully you have
just done what you thought was impossible. Well done, you deserve a
cuppa.









right ive done all ov that and the img file was a crap one it dident work so i got a new one and had a go of doing it all over again and now when i plug in my dbox2 it comes up with bootloader installed failed to load giving up. any ideas ???

You don't need to get the old image off, although I usually ftp a copy of the contents of /var/keys and the services and bouquet files off just to be safe ;-)

When you flash new firmware onto the box most of the old image is overwritten - only the boot loader should be left.
