    Is it worth buying an Nokia DBOX2 for 20 Eur. Is there still a chance to unlock any channel over lan or cc.
    I'm a newbee so any help would be appriciated, also I don't have much money to spend thats why I am asking for the best cheap way I can find.

    Hi Guys,

    I have just pulled out my Nokia dbox2 from cupboard, give it a dusting and powered up, flashed Commando 12 to it. It provided a great service to me until VM changed to N3 encryption, and i had gotten very attached to it and would love to get it working once again.

    After many hours reading through DK forums and trying loads of differing setups, all I get is a few FTA channels. Yep!! I know I was told.

    However!!!

    I'm sure most of you will think this is a very stupid question, will give some of you a good laugh. Please dont ROFL. What have I go to lose?

    Has anyone tried flashing a dbox2 with a dreambox image??
    Similar operating system, similar hardware, worth a try. Of course I will back up first. What do you think? Will it kill my dbox forever.

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    I went ahead without any expert opinions and yes you guessed right it dont work!

    Dont anyone try to flash a dbox2 with dreambox image as it screws up the dbox.

    Luckily for me the Hallenberg assistant resurrected it, didn't even need a null modem cable, just ethernet (extremely lucky). Oh well, keeps me out the wifeys hair.

    I suppose they are still usefull if you don't have a terrestrial aerial, or sat dish. They can still be used for getting the basic channels.

    I've still got a couple of boxes here. Haven't used them for a year or so. Just out of interest, I might fire one up to see what's still available.
