Depends on your bootloader latest dreamelite 1.3.3 is for bl75 update to bl76 first or already bl76

Just had a look and i am on BL72 for some reason but i do know that my clone has the sim 2.01. I had the case off yeterday to load the new hard drive. If i download the Dreamlite will that update to BL76 or will i need to update the bootloader.

[bubbles69]

Where does it say the bootloader? best place to check is in the webshell so put box in flash mode and tap the ip in the pc and it will tell you there current bl

If you load an updated image then you may end up wrecking your box. If you really want to try another image then try loading the image in multiboot.

Yes they are clone safe,

But I personally did not like it, Cam crashed regularly, Fan switched off in stand by heating the receiver to over 45 c, Still none of the dials working in system info regarding System Temperature, System Memory, Ram usage etc, Key Map was wrong (Default no Sub Channel), I flashed back to Gemini 5.0 after three day of DreamElite 1.3

[arrod-ball]

The thing i dont understand is when i bought the box it came with gemini 5 and bootloader 76 pre installed so how come its down graded to BL72? can any one answer that for me please. I am getting confused?

[bubbles69]

maybe you overwrite the bootloader when flashing with a image if you bought box as bl76 gemini 5.0 it must be does it have gold sticker with sim 2.01 underneath and did it say latest l3 tuner when you purchased if so you def overwrite the bootloader you must use patched images for you box version

bubbles69 it has the gold sticker sim 2.01 but only K3 tuner. is it possible to get back to bl76 is there any advantage by having the latest BL or stick with bl72?

[bubbles69]

If it has k3 tuner from factory, there is not way it was bl76 where did you get it from?

[arrod-ball]

I bought it from China. better not say exactly where but this was in the opening line of the advert 76 BOOTLOADER SIM2.01 as i say i have checked the sim it is deffo 2.01 with K tuner

[bubbles69]

Sorry to say m8 the internals are outdated New version dm800 comes with L3 tuner and and BL76 Gemini 5 you must contact seller for replacement.

I would think i have more chance of winning the lottery than getting a replacement.:mad: You pays your money you takes your chance i suppose. It was the cheapest i could find on the net so it serves me right.

I must admit that during our post the more i am thinking about it it does explain why i was having trouble loading some of the newer images. I suppose as its up and running i will use it for a bit then look to upgrade to a newer verison if i can't live with the nabilo image not that there is anything wrong with the image.

Thanks for your help anyway.

[bubbles69]

shame m8, this is problem with china its so expensive to return things..! yes there is a dreamelite patched for bl72 you can use..!

if you flash dreamelite 1.3.3 and BL70
on page 1 of this thread
then telnet with this command

ipkg list | grep second

it will tell you that you have BL76

Cheers davvo i think your right i would like to try dreamlite 1.3.3 thats how this thread started. one last question if i may do i have to use Dreamup or can i quick flash by putting the ip addy into mozilla. thanks for your help.

AB

[davvo]

you need to use dreamup
tick use network takes 2 mins
dont reboot
then flash BL70

cuz if you use mozilla you will lose ip for 2nd flash

[arrod-ball]

ok i will try that tommorow.

[arrod-ball]

davvo, will it only take two mins if i use RS232 if so thats why i dont like using dream up. in the past RS connection takes ages.

[davvo]

use both null modem and network cables
tick use network
null modem cable will just id the box
it will take 2 mins

the reason you have to use dreamup is
you need to flash the BL70
without rebooting the dm800
dreamup will keep the ip that it is using alive

[southpaw]

it is possible to upgrade bl 72 to 76 on sim 2.01 , i am running 76 now , and was 72 when purchased in November,

Unable to ping the box, using serial mode. can anyone help

[davvo]

[arrod-ball]

I have just downloaded the latest dream up 1.3.3.6 and i still get the unable to ping to box message can any one help please

[arrod-ball]

Ok For any one still interested i have managed to get the box back up and running and got it back to BL76. I will say though the only way i did this was to upload via web browser method Mozzila.
