For those FY800HD with only green lite appears but cant boot up, just replace the 2 pc of MP1482ds or es. I heard some bros paid as much as $80+ for that repair on a crap box. My sympathy.
Pls dont PM me for repair as I m really really very old and cant do sophisticated work. Just try my suggestion, I wont lead u astray.

Yes, if u measure the 3.3v and 1.8v(1117@1.8 side n center pin), u will find it missing, so it the power chip thats faulty for the boot-sector. One poor uncle show me his bill and I was shocku ne. So ex just bcos he bot his box 1yr+ ago for $400???? Poor soul. I wonder why some repairman is so nasty. Cost of a compatible equivalent is abt SGD75 only in China and better quality too.
Sorry, if box boot but no chn appear or seems inactive with selected chn, it the other power chip also 1482. So suggest just replace both to save time opening up the box again.

Hi jatrophaseed (http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/members/167002-jatrophaseed/)
I'm getting 1x green LED and can't boot up.
My box is the FYHD800C-II.
You mention to replace the 2x MP1482ds or es (i'm assuming these are power IC chips) I'm not electrical or Electronic trained so i'm really need some help here.
I opened up my box at the power broad area, i can't seems to find those 2 IC chips at least with that model number you mention.
I only found 3 IC chips
8-pin 0B2358AP
4-PIN 1125B (ORIENT 817C)
2-PIN 1009 (KA 432AZ)
Attached are the images.

1482 juz change them.
All on the main Mobo not the power-pack side.

1117 3.3volt and 1.8 volt no need to change, juz put a 100uf (10v) across center pin and Ground (GND).

Hi Crap80
Yes, you need to remove and resolder the chip.
But the problem is i have replaced 2x MP1482ES, AMS1117 3.3 and AMS1117 1.8. My box still failed to boot. Not sure Jatrophaseed have any other solution, i really hope it is not software issue, else it's really goodbye to to my box.

thanks man.. opened my box to take a look but i'm not so technically inclined to solder.
Was touching the two chips with my magnetised screwdriver set and since i can't do anything, just on the set.. then surprisingly it works.
I off the mains yesterday and back to same prob of not being able to boot.
Give up.. time to get another box and make/model

From what u posted, it now back to the Power board, change all the capacitor wont cost more than $5 and it shud worked.
Hv u add 2 cap 100uf to the 1117 3.3v and 1.8v? Usually this may kick boot the box!
The Chinese capacitors r very bad quality always not enuf kick to boot the box that Y it hangs at 'start' but not booting. This is easy, jus change the 5 pc Big capacitors, I shall attach a jpg later to show what I did to the Power board. It looks very layman but s long s it works, i dont complain. My camera battery low, sori. Later pls.
Yes, cardless box r ok but it SW change u may hv to change box if no SW update avlb, whereas with card, u jus change card instead of the whole box. FYHD always hv some chns missing with their cardless model. The earlier model with card, it dont hv this problem. Oh, 1 more thing, many FYHD box wont auto update keys, depends on where the supply comes from. At moment no problem is bcos SH didnt change keys for 25months liao.
@2015hr juz change the cap with marker dot in attached jpg.

Hi Jatro,
I went looking for the FL128 chip today and was told not to waste my time. It seems that the component output sockets on my HD800C-II box are dummies and do not output any signal. Is this true?
jatrophaseed
17th January, 2013, 09:29 AM
It isnt a dummy, f... him.
It output for RCA n component. If u used only hdmi, this chip ' may not ' b necesary. If yr box can hv RCA signal but not hdmi, chk hdmi pin connection to mobo. Seems their soldering not good or loose from to much mishandling of the plug/unplging of cable. Use a x15 loop eye glass to inspect the connection.

Hi Jatro,
You're right, f...him! I opened up the box and see the component outputs sockets are soldered onto the circuit board, no dummies.
The situation is this -
HDMI output - ok
Composite output - ok
Component outputs - no signal
I don't see any FL128 chip. Only one MX B101931 chip and one 4588D chip near the sockets. Also a FL12.000 and a FL25.000 (crystal oscillators?). See attached photo.
Please advise. Thanks

1 way of getting the correct input to component is (1 at a time) :
Green from box to tv component grenn, the TV show Green picture. (dont connect red and blue)
Blue from box to tv component blue, the TV show Blue picture. ( dont connect Green and red)
lastly, Red from box ( make sure it is not the RED from audio) to TV component red, the TV show Red picture.
If not clearly defined, juz toto luck with each color wire, as there r only 3 wires for 3 color, not much variation needed. Juz try this method, probably u may hv mix up the red with audio RED.

Just my 2 cent worth.
Anyone can say their box can support N3 but to what I know even before N3 start, dreambox are the only one that are N3 compatible (Subjected to descramble solution available).
Those OEM box (i.e: fyhd), it will be useless if they does not come with software upgrade only release by factory & only if they have the solution.
Lastly, dun be cheated by "N3 Supported". This does not mean that you will be able to watch locked channel when N1 signal is switch off. What it mean is when card-share is available (if any), you can pay them monthly subscription in order to view all locked channel. I mean IF card-share is available & no promise there will be any so as good as nothing.
For those having those FYHD, god bless you. I will never buy such box if I'm you.

I like to share my 2 cents worth too.
If ppl are looking to get the maximum $$ out of a black box to be able to do many much more then just tuning in to SH channels then yes I agree the DreamBox's linux open platform can certainly do much more.
But for ppl who just want to be able to tune in to SH channels and do not want to scratch their heads over how to mod images, burn and backup bouquets and just want a simple plug & play receiver, the FYHD is a good option.
Doing a simple browse through this forum and you will be able to spot the fair share of problems DreamBox users encounter too.
BTW for those FYHD users who complain they are missing ESPN sports channels, I'm not surprised they can't find them at all. Because SH has RENAMED ESPN sports channels to FOX SPORTS channels!! As with all systems, half of the problems are always due to user misuse :laugh:
My point is no single system is perfect! But there is a suitable system for every different group of users.

Pls note the file is abt 6M must wait abt 4min for full flash then reboot, dont unplug b4 reboot. However, can always reflash as the nand dont suffer from corrupted failure. ie, u can flash as many times as u like, the flash will not be dead.

hmm...spend some time troubleshooting... i observe the following :
1. The box will be startup from cold
2. If you leave it connected, after awhile, it might boot up
3. However, once it boot up, I'm unable to scan any channels.
4. I'm not able to read my usb thumbdrive though the led on my thumbdrive shows there is power.
5. I believe the 2 power IC on my box is PT1203SC.
6. The box seems to run very hot and hang the box.
I suspect is either the 2 power IC problem or the capacitors. I noticed some of the capacitors do not have the solder underneath the pcb. Can these be replaced? Based on what I google, they should be smd style capacitors.
hmm... anyone knows where I can get the power ic and capacitors replaced.

PT12035SC can buy from Dav Jones SimLim Tower Basemt. The smd electrolytic capacitor replaced with lead capacitor will still work, b very careful with d =/- poles or the oil in cap will boil and explode. After replace, the box booted, then reflash with a thunbdrive with only fy.ap file in the drive, no other files unless yr box can access file menu which able to select fy.ap to flash.

The Vii outside is a poor indication of the mobo version. If your 'Chn search' is 3 digits, chances r no, you cannot get 156.5Mhz but TV4$ME is ok, search for the freq.
If your 'Chn search' is 6digit, ( new small digi-tuner) this type box can rcvd 156.5Mhz. h2,h2 hd. lifetime and lifetime hd. I heard a new fw is coming out soon, perhaps you contact your supplier for new fw upgrade??
Dont PM me, I am not related with them.
Pls also note these boxes' RJ45 are not connected, so it is a doorstop when N3 comes. Info i suggested are for your own reveal, many tawkays noobies dont care about changing boxes every few months, i was told straight in the face. Decision at your discretion.
I always pre-empt any new changes.

you are right, the channel search is 3 digit only, no chance of putting in the .5 mhz, maybe thats why can't search for the channel, also, can i just ask, what do you mean by "doorstop when N3 comes"?

Simple term is the box will become useless. The supplier can claim that their fy box will work on n3 but has it been tested? Even their autoroll function was not put to the test yet.
jatrophaseed
23rd June, 2013, 05:59 AM
@ P15, yes, u r right, their AU roll is not tested. N3 some models had bn tested but 95% of their boxes are NOT usable in N3 new system share. The box will not work independently. Pls read up on Nagra3 system sharing and get a 1st hand knowledge of what is to come. My personal suggestion is a small group ~~~~. Dont depend on market uploader.

Seems this FYHD thread is the most subscribe.. anyway, I was pondering over which dreambox to get and came to a decision to get the DM800HD-SE but with N3 in the works, I went for the FYHD800 VII because it is too bloody cheap for the price on a HD set compared to the 800se.. and asking the old birds here for directions where to buy the box seem to go nowhere as it's probably sensitive..
My opinions on the box? The FYHD is really a good budget box. It appears to be a touch slower compared to a friend's DM500C box and the SH default stb. The interface still loses out to those by Dreambox, but it's HD resolution is great and the tuner seems to acquire the signal better than dreambox, although this is just an impression as I haven't and don't intend to test the 2 units side by side as the boxes are at different places (mine and a friends).
Unfortunately, the tuner doesn't have the .5hz searching function so h2 and the other newer channels are no go but it's not a deal breaker for me as I have a SH set top box in the main living room. (using it as a spare for bedroom viewing before sleeping).
(UPDATE 22Aug2013: the new firmware is out and I can now receive these new channels no problem, link is in post #273 (http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/f34/fy800hd-302337/index19.html#post2068869))
I have read thru the cons of the FYHD boxes, and these version may have addressed them. The previous box suffered from a poor PSU design within the box and they have mitigated this by using a external power adapter instead. I haven't tested if the ethernet is connected anot but looking at the interface of the box, it doesn't appear to have any network function but I'm not aware how it usually works as it's my first time using such a stb.. there are USB ports and there is an option to use a USB wireless adapter so MAYBE it can have a wifi function but I haven't looked into it either..
Firmware update appears to be done only via USB so it appears there's no way for user updating so be aware where you buy the set from as the firmware upgrade needs to be compiled by the factory so YMMV with any of the supplier..
All in, I can't complain for the price since I can watch alot of channels already for a auxiliary room box..

25th June, 2013, 10:29 AM
Got a reply from the source I enquired about the newer h2 frequencies
If manual search no help, have to wait for next upgrade software. If you need to get more channels,i suggest you buy DM800HD or DM800SE.

Hi guys,
Is there any difference between the FY800 HD sets, e.g. FY HD800C VII, FYHDc -e? I know there are some differences in the set top box itself, like white and black colour. But otherwise, is there a difference in the internals?
Thanks!

Did the channels mess up after you upgraded firmware?
If yes, when first startup did you choose Country = Hong Kong?
Reinstall firmware and during first startup choose Hong Kong and rescan channels.
Channel sort = By LCN

Guys I found this not sure if its of any help. *********. The first link is dated 20/7/13 which is the lastest FYHD update. But im not sure if it is applicable for all version. But I do believe that that 2nd link dated 17july which is posted by jatrophaseed http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/f34/dm802se-latest-dreambox-wannabe-clone-hd-box-344158/index2.html. that link is supposed for the model FYHD MVD. But apparently according to a few and myself, the 2nd link update works for FYHD 800c vii, does include new channels but not BPL. Anyone has a spare console or would like to play around with the FIRST link? might have updates on BPL or something. That im not sure, thus need some guru to double confirm.

Once you upgraded the firmware, don't scan manually.
Do a factory reset, and upon the language setting page, just do a blind full scan.. and wait..

This is the disadvantage with the FYHD, MVHD, TNHD or watever XXHD they call them b'cos the channel were found as data instead of tv profile when scan.
For dreambox, the brother here who provide the bouquet or updates used dreamboxedit to change it from data to tv.
There are many software to support dreambox unlike those oem boxes will have to wait for official firmware updates from the manufacturer.
Those who have tried using dreamboxedit or dreamup will understand wat I'm trying to say here.
I'm oso not saying the dreambox is good or powerful or trying to put other boxes down. Juz my 2 cents worth. Dreambox recently oso have many problem itself due to component discontinued therefore the maker are using china oem part to substitute resulting all the problem like image drop or weaker signal.
Hope my comments does not offend any trader here.

Something b4 I go on leave.
What ever box need from now pls choose those which full digital tuners, yhose Bros cant get chn r those tuner with the Fconnect and TV connecter further apart than 10mm, thats bcos those r the coil tuner with low sensitivity for extreme low or high freq.
I hv posted the type of tuners to look for, pls refer back to many mths ago on jpg of tuners.
Juz my finding, those boxes with Full digi tuner can recvd all 8chn, no proble, including FY boxes. Those not digi tuner, most hv difficulties. No way around xcept by a booster or change box. Last nite all 8 were tested and runs very smoothly, ie, all 8chns r now fully operational, but I still believe they will still increase signal strenght some days later as more subscriber registered.

Obviously you guys not aware there is a even latest newer model from "Tonnow" model tnHDC-999
But owned both models and tested, there is a serious flaw which may be a problem soon.
May avoid getting the model if that important function is not present.
I will be testing the MV HD series next week..

Be careful updating the firmware of HD800C-VII box, I got a friend, flashed until bricked, and no way to get it fixed.
Be absolutely sure the files u obtained is for your model. Few models don't perform hardware check before burning the rom, and u won't be able to boot up later.

sometimes you may think is brick, but its actually not. for my dm800hd-c, after any flash of any image, i cannot just restart my box. I have to power off my box and remove the power cord to drain out the excess power... den switch it on back. then only it works. if i plug my power cord in and restart, it will nv boot up. always stuck at the dreambox multimedia logo.

If only change key... Juz change key to continue watching.
But if change to N3, then you will have to change your viewing method. Either subscribe to SH or wait for cardshare.

try a new coaxial
croc
8th August, 2013, 06:10 AM
try to adjust your coaxial cable to ensure the dB is high so can detect. From my layman experience if dB < 85 it will not detect.
Sometimes coaxial tighten too much the dB will be too low. Just monitor the dB and screw and unscrew, or you try another cable point. My 2 boxes one no problem, the other one had some problem so i adjust the coaxial and can already. If coaxial cable too old maybe create alot of noise, try a new coaxial
don't think is cable rite? cos my issue is ALL channels can receive less than 135.5 channels....

Let me contribute a bit, do not frame me if I am wrong
I believe white box are unable to scan for 135.5 or 135 (any white box FYHD got the channel ?)
It got nothing to do with signal strength.
As for channel 232-233 (149.5) It is all at the 1000+ channel.
You guys scan but did not go through all the channel............

I believe is the tuner they use, cheaper? (read somewhere in the forum) therefore not new mean can get.
You CANNOT upgrade .bin with .AP (system will not accept ,think so me not pro)

Did you update your set using the latest firmware? if yes, do a restore factory defaults.. you should be able to get the channels.

My current set.
213447
Channel 229-231 as it is.
Channel 232-233, it never change name, but still receive the channels. Clearly.
213448
Rest of channel at 9++.
If your setting at 135500/6090/qam256, only scramble channels.
Adjust your setting to 135000 and search.

Fyhd hd800c-vii cannot pick up 133500mhz frequency. Seems like hardware limitation. :(
not sure if there is a official firmware from fyhd manufacturer.

Doesn't Work For Mhd 600C. Don't Think It Will Work For Newer Versions Of Fyhd either. The Main Issue Is That The Set Top Boxes Just Won't Receive 135 Or 135.5GHz. Not Sure If A Firmware Update Can Solve This Issue. Or Is It A Hardware Limitation. AnyOne Can Advise?

Hi DBTraitor,
i followed ur link and is the same link as suggested by dreamyeyes.. i tried the image and it works for TNHD 888
just fyi for other TNHD 888 users.. the image for the white FYHD works for TNHD 888 too.. except it can only scan 229, 230 and 231.
I am receiving alot of distortions though. Anyone else facing similar distortion issues and how to solve it?

I thought it would be good to share here how I manage to get all the new channels here since I've got PM asking me on how I do it.
1) Make sure you have the latest FW ( file should be FY.AP), not those on pg 7 here.
2) select Menu/ Channel search / Manual search.
3) At Frequency(MHZ) select 128 / 136 / 149 (do one frequency at a time) and Symbol at 6090
4) Before you press ok to search,WAIT for the Quality bar below for signal strength first. If no signal shown, pressing ok will not get you any new channel. (It may take around 5-30 sec before you see the Quality bar showing signal and it may take a few try before you get it.)
Channel 101 to 106 will be shown and 107/108 will be shown as unknownChl
Remember all the new channels will be situated at the back and will not be in correct order. I just save them as FAV for easy access. Hope it helps.

I'm using the MHD 600C which apparently is the latest White variant of the FYHD800 series. Managed to receive all channels including 229, 230 and 231. Channels 232 and 233 are stored in the 1000+ channel numbers. From the posts I've Read So Far, it is evident that the newer series FYHD STBs are unable to receive channels 226 to 228. This is because the STB is Unable to pick up any signals from freq 135 and 135.5GHz. Even the whole spectrum from 130 to 140GHz has zero signal strength!
I'm not sure if this can be solved through a firmware update or it's a H/W limitation of the STB. Any kind souls can advise on this?

Hi, newbie here. I am getting pixelated and sometimes no image on these channels (Travel Channel HD, GINX HD, iConcerts HD, Fox Family Movies HD, CinemaWorld HD, Sky News HD & channel M HD) on my FYHD800C. These 7 channels were picked up on auto-scan at 482MHz, Sym6875, 256QAM.
Would appreciate if some master can advise on this. Thank you in advance.

I inserted the USB thumbdrive to the back of the box (I only have the slot at the back), and when I tried to update it from the menu it said it could not find the file in the USB. I tried rebooting it and trying again but it did not work.
Can anyone help? Thanks!

i sincerely thank you so much. Like you, i had a very old FYHD and was told I need buy new ones. Saw your post and followed carefully and it worked !!
Let me share with everyone here the photos so that you can see my box and my firmware.
as tammy said, the quality bar is important. If it is empty, no good. Wait,, till it is yellow... Very important :)
now watching Man U match...
thank you TAMMY !!!!! You saved me a lot of $$$$$ :)

Hi everyone. Can I say that I should get a MVHD HD800C-V instead of those FYHD series in order to watch B*L channels?
I am considering to get either MVHD or FYHD but after reading this thread, I realised that FYHD is unable to scan the channels.
Can any experts advise me on this? Thank you.

Something to ponder about...
In about half a year ago and before, its a norm for most of the guys here to bash FYHD boxes, and preach the virtues of Dreamboxes..
Nows seems the tides had changed... discussion of these boxes quite brisk.
