Guide to changing the Key codes on Nokia D box via remote control
A GUIDE ONLY FOR PEOPLE AFRAID OF PCS
If the D Box goes down and the only channels you have left are RTE 2, TV3 , Channel 6 etc., don?t do a service scan, if you do you will lose most of your channels and it makes it more difficult to get them back.
NOTE: When I refer to scroll in text below, I mean using the Toggle buttons that are around the OK button on the remote control, the button below the OK you use to scroll down, the one above use to scroll up and down, the buttons to the left & right you use to move left & right. If you make a mistake and you want to go back to the start, press the home button and don?t save changes. To get started follow instructions below:
1
. Press the blue button and you will be in the features menu, scroll to Tuxbox Commander, press OK.
You should now be looking at the files on the D Box.
2
. Scroll to VAR and press ok, If you don?t see VAR, scroll to <DIR> & press ok, if you still don?t see VAR scroll to the next <DIR> and press ok, keep doing this until VAR appears on the screen!
3
. When you find the VAR file and you press OK, scroll to Keys & press OK
4
. Scroll to Keylist.txt and press 4 on your remote control! It is important that you don?t press OK when you scroll to keylist.txt , you must press 4 in order to edit the code that will appear! If you pressed OK in error , just press the Home button and start again.
5.
After pressing 4 you should be looking at a screen with /var/keys/keylist.txt at the top, 4 or 5 codes in the middle and numbers 1 to 9 at the bottom.
6.
Now you need to scroll to the code that you are going to change, e.g old code is as follows:
N S401 00 587436A3B220CB46 and we need to change it to N S401 00 587436A3B230CB46
We are only changing one digit this time, in future you may have to change more digits.
7.
When you have have scrolled to code you want to change press OK, When you press OK, the code becomes slightly larger and the first digit changes colour to red, this is now your cursor!
8
. Scroll to the digit you want to change, and then use the numbers on your remote to change that digit to whatever character you want, e.g. if you want to change the digit to 3 , you press the number 3 button four times until 3 appears, the press ok. The same would apply if you want to change it to 4, you press the number 4 button on your remote four times and press OK.
9
. When you have changed the digit to the new one, press the Home button, it will ask you do you want to save changes, if you are happy with the new change, scroll to yes and press OK.
10
. You should now have changed the code, to get back to the TV screen, press home.
11
. In order for the changes to work you need to reboot, press the D box button and scroll to reboot and press OK. When it reboots you channels should be back!

sorry mate your stuffed if you done a service scan you have scanned for something thats not there ie. channels so the box deleted any previous service xml's that where there so you need to upload the service xmls for your area and not service scan, then enter your code but if your ftp-ing the box you might aswell enter the keylist.txt available on this site
best of luck
ps this guide os only for people who have not done a service scan and dont have a PC facilty...as you know not everyone has xover cables and pc's to use ,,,cheers

Do not know if it was the image that caused the problem. It was my first time to try and flash the box. Also added services, bouqets and keys. May have done something wrong while doing this.
Eventually got the box to start using IFA. Put Andromeda 2 on the box and FTP to add services etc.
All is now working well. Thanks to everybody who is providing the info, images etc and very quick advice

Just a quick recap on ftp tcpip etc.
1 get the ip address of your dbox (settings\network)
lets say 192.168.1.23 for example
2 get any files you need from the net onto your pc(service XMLs and cable XML's
3 open up your network connections and disable wireless if you have it and make a note of all tcpip settings for all network cards for setting back
4 plug in cross over cable to both ethernet ports pc to dbox
5 change the tcpip settings of your ethernet adapter as follows
ipaddress 192.168.1.22(one below your d box Example)
gateway 192.168.1.23
subnet 255.255.255.0
Start your ftp(flash FXP is the most popular)with blade image your user is root and password is root so root/root this will give you access to the files on the box go to var/tuxbox and enter cables in here and var/tuxbox /config and enter services in here, go to var/keys /ketlist.txt and change the old keylist for the new
I usually download the file from the dbox to my pc before overwriting it with the new one just in case my new one makes it worse, this is a back up
restart your dbox and off ya go

Just got my Dbox2 on Sportster 1.7 uk with NTHELL in Dublin back working.
Thanks for all your help in the forums. Sterling work.
If anyone needs a walk through for Windows Vista FTP procedure then let me know. A hell of a lot easier than you'd think.
Keylist available here is the only one I could get to work by the way.

mate you need to read the threads its hard at first but the only way to communicate with the box is with a crossover cable(ethernet) and if your flashing an image do it with both crossover and null modem cables , use a programme called IFA ,,,hallenberg.com use FlashFXP for file transfer to your box , my advice would be to get familiar with the box as NTL are going to be doing rollovers all of the time from now on
best of luck

get your self a cross over cable and then your in bidnezz i know you have an image so your not going down the road of flashing the box learn how to communicate with flash fxp to your d box and you'll be grand file transfering to the box is very easy so get your cable and follow the previous guide to transfer
so #1 you need to get service.xmls for your area im in dublin there easy to get off the net (or your mates box or something) #2 cables.xmls as above and the new keylist.txt file as you have deleted all of them you need to get them from another box or the net file transfer them into your box and your away its not that hard only when you go down the road of flashing the box is it tricky but you have an image so thats cool ......best of luck
and ps dont service scan without backing up your box a full back up of the box is the var/tuxbox/config folder transfer this folder to your box when its running ok and you can mess with it all you like

Hi All
Only new on site, which looks very informative. Can someone please please help. I think i've completely done in my dbox. As you probably are aware everything went last thursday. I messed about done a scan. And there is no stations on it. Tonight being an idiot i read some threads here and plugged my broadband into the box now commando 6 and anything else that was coming up on my telly are gone.
I'm a complete technophobe and would probably need to be walked through each stage of getting my precious box back up and running.
Thanks in advance.....

Hi back again, forget my last message as I done a little jigging about and now have half channels. I know the problem I have is when I scanned the box. So now I need some help getting the rest of the channels back. If I need to connect the box to PC I'll really need some help. I have only got clearwire broadband and don't know what ftp,xmls or crossover cables are. I'm a complete computer illiterate.
Thanks
