Dead dm-7000s

[stevemaho]

I am having problem with my 7000 i try flashing with new image and in the end get the lerror mem crc32 from box not equal to local crc32 tried diff dreamup versions and no go also diff images even factory one.
Now trying to flash again now it says waiting to acknowledge in dreamup so i can't get to flash erare or flash the buttons are blacked out.
Any help please.

are you using a null modem cable to try to flash, you can flash the 7000 series by browser

also are you sure its an image for the 7000..?? 7000 series images have the extention .nfi not the usual .img

lol.. check your new threads when you make 'em mate.. i been keeping an eye out for a response for the last 45 mins.. at least you've been reading though lol

[stevemaho]

But now it is not giving me the option to even flash everything blacked out on dreamup it detects the box and the waiting for acknowledge and just stuck there

[stevemaho]

sorry mate appreciate the help and patience but i am googleing like crazy since yesterday

[krazylegz]

if its failing the crc check it doesnt look good, and as the 7000 series are quite old i'd say its ~~~~ed m8

[stevemaho]

so it is dead now.
Can i jtag it and bring it back.

[opsmonkey]

no mate Krazy means its ~~~~ed in a 'skip it way'

Flashing a 7000 series box is a bit different from the norm..

If that doesnt help then before you throw it out try this from another user.. got to be worth a go..


error mem crc32 from box not equal to local crc32. I took the top off and reversed the ribbon on the main board..
and it reflashed for me. also look out for dirt on the mainboard

let us know how you get on ;)

I have 4.49 v coming from 2 3 4 5 and 13 i have 13 on a 100ohm resistor should that be a problem instead of 11.
I usually use 2 3 4 5 and 13 to jtag dish ird and pansat with no problem.
i just borrowed another desktop from a friend to see if maybe my lpt has a prob,but the same thing.
The only thing can be wrong i think is using 13 instead of 11 on the jtag cable didn't try switching it yet .
So let me know if this is the prob then i will desolder the cable and put on 11.
Thanks

Ok got it now it was 11 instead of 13 now i am connected with jtag.
cpu ok but then: " FLASHMEMORY ID DO NOT MATCH(should be 0x89 and0x17
Are you sure this is a dreambox 7000s"
How do we continue from here guys?
Is there another program to fix this or file?
Any help appreciated
