Dream DM800S clone, ?168 Delivered

[cauliflower69]

Taken from a different forum

Hi guys,

Just thought I would let you all know about my experience buying a DM800S direct from the manufacturer in China. I ordered 2x Dream DM800HD (Sat version) with bootloader72 and Gemini 4.4 installed for $530 (?168 each!!!). The boxes come with an internal heatsink and fan, and utilise an Alps tuner. I also paid by PayPal (not gift, so I had some protection).

The boxes have arrived by DHL in just 3 days (tracking number supplied). He marked the parcel as a Birthday present with a $50 value, so no VAT or import taxes ;-)


This is the guy I emailed/dealt with:
Tony Zhou,

And when I paid, he wanted me to PayPal to this address:


The person that posted this is a stand up guy so i know he aint bullcrapping

[Curious123]

I have been following a thread on one of the other forum and there were lots of people having problems with their tuners especially on S*y HD channels. Let us know how get on with your boxes.

[cauliflower69]

I ordered the one to see so I will let you know

[waqasahmed]

It would be nice to see a proper review of these receivers. Also can you get a cable tuner added? and is/are the tuner/s plug and play?

[cauliflower69]

I know you can buy them as Cable units

[waqasahmed]

I do know you can buy them as cable units, but it would be nice if you could get a plug and play receiver where you can add a cable tuner as well(future proofing :D)

[cauliflower69]

like the 8000, yeah would be great

[cauliflower69]

On the specs sheet it says plug and play tuner

[Sicilian]

Personally i'd rather pay extra & buy them from from a seller in the uk such as linuxsat, least if u have an issue they're in the uk and have a shop.

[cauliflower69]

Yeah thats true i suppose.

cheers

[waqasahmed]

Ive been looking and I believe the person you're talking about is ruddyrum? If so, hes on about ordering a "sample" unit and the price is an awkward ?168 because the currency of business is in USD :D

[dctyper]

im deffo interested in feedback on one of these boxes

[tvadict]

People are having problems with dreambox clones from china. Sky uk, sky italia and sky germany HD channels freeze constantly all the time. It all points to weak tuners

[waqasahmed]

Maybe in the future we will get some stronger tuners? :D

[Curious123]

Maybe in the future we will get some stronger tuners? :D

I think the debate is still going on wether the tuners are at fault or the boxes. Once someone swaps out their tuner we will know whats at fault.

[DJSimo]

Mine arrived today, I paid ?215 including delivery to UK.

Just setting it up as we speak, loading a new image to it though as I dont trust Gemini image.

Will let you know later how it goes.

[cauliflower69]

there seems to be a fix out for the weak tuner issue in the latest hacked images.

[DJSimo]

Mine is coming close to being thrown out of window and then drove over and hit with a sledge hammer just to make sure lol

[loncell]

so what's the actual problems your having ?.

[DJSimo]

so what's the actual problems your having ?.

Nothing to major just finding my way round the box software,
I tried flashing latest Pli image but got the no ca found error, turned out to be bootloader problem & mine is the later 1 with 72 bootloader.

I can confirm I am getting the problems with break up on S*k HD UK, all other HD channels seem fine.

S*y 1HD is working fine but cant seem to get rid of black lines either side of picture, have tried all the different settings in Pli image.

I will persevere and might tey getting it to multiboot to try other images.

[dctyper]

good post dj, im well interested. do you use a signal booster?

[cauliflower69]

use nabilo pli jade enigma 2 is crap

[waqasahmed]

I suppose if you need a signal booster, then I dont see any harm in buying one as long as they dont have the overheating issue any more.

[DJSimo]

Will try a different image first, if not will give signal booster a go.
It seems to run cooler than my Openmedia, it has got a heatsink and fan on cpu.

[waqasahmed]

Even with a signal booster, the price for a HD Dreambox clone seems very reasonable :D

[DJSimo]

Even with a signal booster, the price for a HD Dreambox clone seems very reasonable :D

Yes and had to find a power lead as it came with a 2pin plug one, and a network lead but even adding these costs on it is still a good price and if you can get it for the price quoted early in this post even better

[waqasahmed]

I myself would wait it out when the dollar is slightly weaker-have a look at yahoo finance. Its how I decide when to buy a computer part from a wholesaler seeing as their prices fluctuate according to the dollar :D As I said, the dollar is the currency of business in most countries(including us)

[pacman362]

I always use Nabilo images on my 800 as these seem to be the most stable for me !

[cauliflower69]

What do you mean when you say booster ?

If you mean an inline amplifier they dont increase the signal quality. They are only used on long runs of cable.

[waqasahmed]

I would have thought that a booster like this eBay item:270434683558 would improve the signal levels. Also, on long runs of cable, I presume you mean ethernet after 100m?-They use repeaters which are essentially signal boosters but not CATV Amplifiers, besides we're not using ethernet here, so sorry for going off on a tangent :D

[cauliflower69]

Cable TV/CATV Signal Booster/Amplifier for NTL Eurovox

The proof is in the Title nowhere does it state Satellite. I was talking about co-ax cable. If you have a long run of cable lets say 50 metres the loss on the cable is alot so half way down the line you place an inline amplifier to compensate for the loss

like this

h**p://www.smarthome.com/7748/20-dB-In-Line-950-2150-Mhz-Amplifier/p.aspx

If you want a better signal use better cable, low noise lnb and a bigger dish.

Or tweak your own dish

[waqasahmed]

Sorry, I drummed it into my head that I would get the DM 800C so started talking about cable :D

[cauliflower69]

No problems m8

[DJSimo]

I always use Nabilo images on my 800 as these seem to be the most stable for me !

I am going to try that 1 tomorrow, although have to say Ive just watched the Arsenal game on S*y Sports HD3 no problems, but Nat GeoHD and Disney Cinemagic HD break up badly.

[DJSimo]

Okay to update, I have flashed box with Nabilosat image and seem to solve the weak signal problem I was getting before on S*Y UK channels, but next problem is I cant get dish to move with this image, was working fine in Pli and also on Openmedia Box running Pli.

I also tried flashing latest images from Pli and Nabilo and then flashing bootloader 72 back to box, but when image starts it says Hardware cannot be verified contact Dream multimedia, (LOL yes of course I will,,, NOT)

Back to patched images to try again!!!:banghead:

[cauliflower69]

Use a patched nabilo image

[DJSimo]

Use a patched nabilo image
That was what I tried earlier this morning, it solved the weak tuner problem but then created the problem of dish not moving....

I am going to try and see if i can get Barry Allen to work so I can more easily change between images till I find one that I can setup to my liking......

[.: JaCkPoT :.]

i can get good quality Dreambox800HD clone from china
contact with my friend ,he is a boss factory made dreambox clone
e-mail : ****REMOVED BY DK ADMIN****

You had a similar post removed mate, if you want to advertise then get in touch with a admin.

[DJSimo]

I give up I cant seem to install Barry Allen for Multiboot!!!

Will just stick to Gemini image for now seems most stable as long as I dont update it !

That sounds like a power problem then ! if you cant get the dish moving because im using the latest Nabilosat (and most of the older ones in the past) and have never had any problems moving my 1.1mtr HH dish and motor ? (my 800 is an original though).

Try mesuring the voltage coming from the tuner when moving sats then check the specs for an original 800 online and compare the results.

[Curious123]

I think I read somewhere that if you change your box you need to reset your motor. Try sending it to 1W with your old box and then do reset on the motor with the paper clip and then connect your dm800.

You should be able to re'set the motor via the sat box ! don't know about paper clips ? never had to re'set mine when changing boxes though, good idea to start @ 1w though and use Usals.

Thanks for the ideas, however I finally managed to get a Nabilo Pure Flash with Barry Allen installed and can now multiboot the latest images without bootloader problem, & so far Nabilo Blackhole image is moving the dish fine with USALS

Its taking a while but Im finally getting somewhere!!!:dancing2:

Same as my original 800 ;)

this happend to me in the past on an original box as well on certain images
it just showed a weak signal but wasnt :)

You are better off sorting it from the UK pay the extra 40 quid or so and you'll have a local supplier

Hello everybody;

I'm new here, I just want to share with you my experience following yours messages : I ordered and paid today by paypal a DM800 cable unit (DVB-C) to this guy Tony Zhou, it seems to be ok, it costed me 271 USD (190 ?) delivered to France.
The others : Nextbay 280 USD shipping included but paypal will charge 4.5% tax of total; Vince (from szbct.com) told me 220 USD without shipping, and DVBKEY (dvbkey.com) told me 270 shipping included but only the DVB-S version (with an extra DVB-C tuner as a gift but I was supposed to install it myself). The main reason I refused his offer : he doesn't accept paypal...
Well , hope I made the good choice, I will let you know how's working on the French Cable.

Best regards,
Alex

Does the new hacked/patched Barry Allen make the DM800HD Clone more desirable?

I dont really understand the multi boot just yet but as i'm interested in one now

[satcat]

got one of these recently from china..defo got a weak tuner.breaks up constantly on HD channels ie:SSP1..Discovery HD,,,etc. No problems on the SD channels ..Tried it on 13.0 East as well and was able to peak the SNR up abit..and all seemed fine there...back on Sly dish signal dropped down again and could not get it better than 86..on SNR..and pic breakup again was constant..sold it on now...would not recommend on this evidence..cheers satcat:thefinger:

Thanks for this info. I got quoted a similar price to the uk. Did you paypal a different email address too? I am still not sure if I want to buy but this seems a good price, I wonder if the dollar can get weaker :p

[lorept]

Hello all,

will be nice to put here same links or info from were we can play clones from china or GB or in different location and maybe same prices for all of us to chose the best relation, price-quality.

Thanks

I am having a few problems with my dm600 clone so i was thinking about upgrading to a dm800 clone. I see that you have an issue with some S*y HD channels but since I do not have a HD tv it may seem irrelevant at the moment but do all the other channels work?

[unlocked]

Yes, paypal to a different address ... But it's the same as the first post on this thread and also the contact address on their website, so I don't worry. About the dollar ... The trend is the GBP getting weaker today I think, but nothing really significant at this level of price... :) So the right question is : should I pay a little more and buy an original one or the clone will be good enough? I will tell you more when my receiver will be here.

By the way ; the best price I found for an original DM800 HD (DVB-C) was here (http://fr.buchmann.ch/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=8253&ad=Toppreise) , in Switzerland .
1 x Dreambox DM 800C HDTV () = ?360.54
------------------------------------------------------
Zwischensumme: ?360.54
PaketPost (Priority): ?37.41
- 7.6% MwSt.: ?-30.24
Summe: ?367.71

But I guess you should pay the VAT in your country... And you have to pay by Bank Transfer !

Hello everybody,

I think the user satkr is dvbkey himself making some advertising ;) I recognise his way to say "turner" instead of "tuner" (I have 2 emails from him) ... :) It might be helpfull to have somebody serious here who can testify about his shop. Anyhow, to answer to Bonesy, I'm a newbie here but I still think it can help having prices and addresses for ordering, that's why I'm very gratefull to cauliflower69 who posted the thread.

Well, about my order : I have received my clone DM800 DVB C (BL72); very satisfied, no taxes, 3 days by DHL... Everything working well on it (i changed the Gemini image to a Nabilo one).
Only 2 problems, one not important : very noisy fan!! I will deconnect it. But the other problem is very disturbing - maybe you can help me :
I have to TV Sets : A new full HD 23" LCD Samsung (2370) in the bedroom , and an "old" HD Ready plasma LG 42X4R (or something like that) in the livingroom. The image is perfect on the LCD, but I can not display correctly on the plasma others resolutions than 520 (image is flashing, it's very very bad) ! I tried in 50 and 60 Hz, nothing changes... :( This happends with all images (Pli, Nabilo, Gemini) so I'm very dissapointed.
Should I try to update the last drivers ss75 released few days ago (they are talking about fixing stuttering video with enabled deinterlacer (i.e. N24 ticker) ) ; using the method "DM_800_clone_full_pack_anti_tuner_fail_+cardreader" ? Should I use a Scart - YUV to obtain at least 720?
Is there somebody else who found a solution?

Thank you for your help and please forgive my bad english !

Great news that you got your box so soon.
I looked up the LG 42X4R and I see that it has no hdmi socket. How are you connecting the DM800? Component or scart?
I thought the fan is required because people say the DM800 gets hot enough to cook an egg lol.

edit: Ok I forgot the DM800 has dvi output, so you are connecting with dvi?

thank you so much for trying to help me ! The LG 42X4R has a HDMI socket, and I'm using it without any problem with other devices (DVD PLAYER , XBOX 360...): "Connectique du t?l?viseur Plasma LG 42PX4R
Entr?es Vid?o : VGA • HDMI • P?ritel (x3) • YUV • S-Vid?o (x2) • Composite (x2)"

So, what could be my problem? Bad cable? Should I try to buy another one? :(

The fan is requiered but until I ll get one silent, I just can t let it connect !! :)

Thanks

[on_the_jazz]

Hmm if the cable works with the lcd then I don't think its the cable.
The spec for your tv says:

Video format input 480p (via Component socket) , 1080i (via Component) , 480i (via connectors Component) , 720p (via connectors Component) , 576i (via socket Component) , 576p (via socket Component)

I wonder why there is nothing written for hdmi. Have you tried your xbox through hdmi at 720P or 1080i? Or anything through hdmi at this resolution?

[unlocked]

YES I tried without any problem, everything's OK with other devices...
Tomorrow I will buy a SCART - YUV adapter (or better DVI- YUV? it exists? It works on the DM?), with my Samsung HD950 DVD Player (cracked by telco code) the image on the plasma through the YUV is almost as good as by HDMI (just upscaled but pretty!)... I bought the DM800 for the HD channels, I really want to obtain that ;). What about the scart switch on it, is it delivering a real component signal if I choose YPbPr on settings?

[on_the_jazz]

Yes, try a dvi to component cable for sure (if it does not work you can always return it). The problem is I do not know if the dm800 supports dvi-i. If it is dvi-d then the cable type below will not work.

Hama DVI-I to 3 RCA RGB YUV Component Plugs Adapter Cable Lead [ 00056446 ] - kenable for HDMI Optical TOS Network Ethernet RJ45 Scart Audio Phono Jack USB Firewire 800 ADSL Cable Leads (http://www.kenable.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=1670)

If it does work then maybe the hdmi on your tv is very strict with the signal it accepts (my old hd dlp tv is like this).

DHL will send you an invoice a week after delivery charging V.A.T if you are in UK, they did with me but as I only ordered 1 it only cost ?6:72 as they put value on pack as $60 usd.

Letter said, DHL pay the vat or import duty to stop delay of the parcel but then bill the delivery address!!

[dctyper]

i have ordered mine today. asked for the cable version for the time being and will buy a sat tuner for later, tony is very helpful. i will keep you guys posted

how exactly did yiu set it up as i'm having problems using usals with mine

[DJSimo]

how exactly did yiu set it up as i'm having problems using usals with mine

Just used Usals in simple configuration, entered my Longitude & Latitude and then scanned all strong sats.

To tweak went into positioner setup and manually moved dish and then stored position for satellites.

As long as your dish is setup correctly, it should find all sats!!

just a heads up guys, ive had quite a few of these clones from china, going back from sept 08 to last week, and i can say for the money they are great and from the original dm800 i have they are better in many ways. The only downside is that every one Di*covery HD and Di*ney HD constantly glitch. This is with different bootladers and images and does seem to be a tuner issue. That aside all other HD chans come thru fine and definitely better vfm that an original.
Also there are about 6 different companies selling these but all get fabricated in same factory, so no one seller is better than the other. Hope this helps.

[waqasahmed]

People at other forums say to stop the glitching, simply attach a satellite inline amplifier. Solves quite a lot of people's problems

[bigup]

can confirm the inline amp from ebay works a treat :)

?3 delivered.

[blue boy]

Just about to order from this guy, I emailed him regarding the boot loader problem and he says that with the latest version bt 75 the results are perfect and very stable. Can anyone confirm this?
Cost delivered is $265.5 (?175)

Also it comes with Gemini image, is it best to change this to Nabilosat Black Hole? does it come with pre loaded bouquets with Gemini image?

Thanks

Well I paid $270 so its gone down, but then again with the conversion back then it worked out at about ?170.
I flashed a few images but came back to Gemini 4.4. No pre-lodaded bouquets. Try a few images and see what you like.

[billy2]

guys is there a site to go to ????

[blue boy]

The name of the company is YaoXin International trading

[billy2]

i see there selling the 500hd anyone got 1 yet ???

[satkr]

i see there selling the 500hd anyone got 1 yet ???
hi
as i know have not dm500HD clone at the moment
i usually buy dreambox500S and dreambox800HD from 500s.us
it's a manufacture in china. the quality very good, because i import the box over 3 years :ciao:

[Espat]

can someone confirm that they have bought from this person and the box is working, im going to place my order


I confirming, that Yao Xin company is correct. I bought a DM800HD-S for 267 USD (178 € at this time) on 19.-th oct., and 23-d oct arrived to Slovakia. My trade manager was Tina Zhang (she and Tony Zhou are collegues). I have archived all communication via alibabas chat, and I have archived the DHL tracking.
The DM800 is very good, stable. Only second day I playing with the sat, but seem will be OK. The fan is noisy, I replaced it with 8 cm PC fan, mounted on top of the receiver.

[blue boy]

Going to order the 800hd later today from this company, I have a few questions if anyone can help.

When doing a transponder scan is it the box or the image or a combination of both that picks up the hd channels? I am used to DM 500s and have Nabilosat Darkstar image, when I do a rescan it picks up the hd channels of say Sky Italia but not Canal Nordic or Sky Uk, will the 800hd automatically find the hd channels. I have a
Fracarro Penta 85 motorised system so reception is not a problem.

The 800hd comes with pre loaded Gemini 4.4 image, should I keep this or change to Nabilosat Black hole?

[dctyper]

mine has just arrived, gunna have a go getting it on cable now

[Tyger]

Just ordered my DM800HD Clone from DVBKey for ?140 odd UK pounds. Also bought an inline amp from eBay, and will now try to source a good (but not too dear) DiSEqC motor to refit my 1m dish (glad I kept it)... It's for Xmas, so once I finished setting it up/playing with it, I've gotta give it back to the missus (I mean my dear wife) to pack....

[dctyper]

ive bought 3 of these boxes from tony over the last week, all perfect. dvbkey charge 175 for there boxes mate???

[Tyger]

Actually $280, but if you go to the bottom right of the site, it allows you to choose currency, and it works out at
?140.84 :-) This is the DM800HDS

yes
i think paypal not good now ,because they charge between seller and buyer, if you need Withdrawal it will be charge again.
now i use www.moneybookers.com (http://www.moneybookers.com) it's a UK company , it's same as paypal but more cheaper!

I ordered an 800Hd from china, nut before doing so i asked them a cuouple of questions and the answers you all seem to look for are right here

1. For a clone you MUST use an gemini 4.4 image

2. with bootloader 75.

This is what they told me. But i dont understand the part "bootloader 75". Ive already got two dreamboxes sat and cable, but i have not come up with "bootloader 75"

Please someone explain what it is, as i have not needed this.....I dont think!!!!!! Confused.com LOL LOL LOL

[tosh3]

if you look at the linuxsat website, it states it is an chinese version!!!!!!! So there making ?40 profit from the same people i and others have bought for ?165. !!!!!11

[passatmani]

Hi!

Yes, it is cheaper from China, but the Austrian Duty is good, very often you have to pay the duty (in Austria +20% and then +2,5%!!!!). And maybe the duty see it as a plagiat and they crash them. So what is better! Shipping from the EU without risk or maybe 40 Pounds less for this highly risk? I decided for the EU Shipping!

Greets!

bootloaders are basically drivers for your device lol. Me personally, Im waiting it out until a)I have more cash b)when I need to c/s seeing as though cable is worthless :D and c) once these are "near perfect" like the DM 500's and 600's

People are having problems with dreambox clones from china. Sky uk, sky italia and sky germany HD channels freeze constantly all the time. It all points to weak tuners

Hi,

Two possible solutions (and maybe cause to a certain degree):

Was the satellite cable used a good quality? HD signals are better served with a better spec cable, with 100db gain.

If using existing cable not at that spec, a simple In-Line Signal Amplifier (?3.19 free postage from eBay UK) will give around 30db added gain to boost the signal. The amplifier takes its power directly from the receiver, so there is no extra hassle other than fitting it between the receiver and LNB. :-)

My dish is not yet up (95 cm Motorised) and my DM800HDs is in transit, but once all is set up, I can let you know if the Chinese Clones work satisfactorily with the (20m run) 100db cable.

[linuxsat]

Hi For those of you who think it is worth buying from China we have the option now you can buy the receiver from only ?135 with the 10% discount but you have to pay postage tax and duty so choice is yours we are giving you the options buy from china or buy from uk you decide. visit the sponser section on this forum for the member discount code

Hi, i tried the above method however once i press the flash button on dreamup and try to open image, it says 'file too big', is there any way around this, i purchased mine from china, iv sent email but no response from the other side.
the reason i had to use dream up is bcoz my dreambox will not boot and shows dream-mutimedia ERROR! on the screen.

I hope someone can find a solution for this its not even been a month with this box:s:

[blue boy]

JFYI
Make sure you are using a NULL MODEM and not a SERIAL CABLE, Dreamup will not communicate with your box if you use a serial cable. I spent 2 days trying to find out what was wrong with my DM800 and it was down to the cable

I bought from Tony from YaoXin, I paid ?167 delivered (arrived about 5 days) but the Gemini 4.4 image it came with would not move my dish so I flashed with a original Nabilosat BH 12 image (mistake should have used a patched version) I had a error message NO CA found in the display so I followed the tutorials and eventually got the box back to life with the correct cable.

I have the box running great now with a patched image NabiloBlackHole-12-BL72-dreamboxclones-co.cc.nfi. I am getting good SNR and the dish is moving fine without using USALS.

Another good thing to remember is that if you have a motorised system make sure you make a note of the motor positions already set and use them when you set up your sat config in the new box.

[shaks08]

howz it possible to use a null modem cable instead of serial cable, as dream up has a choice between com 1,2,3..etc. isnt that to do with serial cable

[blue boy]

Both Serial and Null Modem have the same 9 pin female connectors and look the same but the difference is the Null Modem is reverse wired inside the cable apparently.

To connect to my PC I ended up needing a USB to Serial converter (Maplin) and that gave me the Serial outlet to plug the Null Modem into.

Try to flash with 69 bootloader by old dreamup with orginal image. If u r done and everything ok, then try normal way to reflash it again with ur choice of image and bootloader.
I know few people has same problem, they didn't find the way to fix it, as soon as i know i will post it here, but mean give it a shot.

dont worry, its not a big deal i think try this:
1.open the box(very easy) press the sim card gently, then try , if it still have error, --->
2. listen to Bonesy (http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/members/147-bonesy/), flash bootloader 72 again, thats it , try now, if its still have error------>
3. u have to flash lower bootloader, may be 70,


hope that will sort ur porblem.

after bootloader u must install driver DreamBox-dvb-modules_2.6.12-5,1-brcmstb-dm800-20090707-r0_dm800 with dcc for e2
here u hawe all u need

[shaks08]

iv opened the box, its hard to press sim card with the tuner comin in way, is it ok if i take the tuner off and than press sim card while flasing, also i managed to flash by ip adress on the web. i got to this stage by forcing the flash button and i will open the image after i press 'connect' but wat a few seconds and than open the image file. this way the dreamup showed the same error message but the box somehow rebooted and froze on booting, so on the second round i quickly kept hold of the standby button as soon as box rebooted and i some how got the stop sign with ip adress. i flashed with new image but when i switched off and back on i got the same error message. i wil try the bl72 and keep sim pressed and hope for the best

I can confirm this tuner is absolute crap. I haven't tried an other image at the moment, but i can't scan any DVB-S2 channels at the moment.

Rubbish.

[shaks08]

Huh failed again, tried pressing the sim card and the flashed twiced with bl69 but still got the same error message on box lcd. i definetely think its a hardware problem, i noticed on the box ip web page it said something bout bootloader 59, i think i may have bl59, but for the past weeks i has nabilo bl72 patched installed and had no problems with the image. has anyone experienced a cap blowin inside or some sort of common hardware fault in the clones. and thanks for all your help guys, il keep this box in safe place until i find something new that will resurrect my box:rolleyes:

I was the same with mine I emailed the seller saying the tuner was crap and he replied saying it was an image problem , I couldn't scan or move the dish with the original Gemini 4.4 Image, I eventually flashed Nabilosat BH for clones Bl72 and everything is fine.

[shaks08]

i thought the box can boot without the tuner, i took the tuner out and pressed the sim to flash image but that did'nt work also, can anyone confirm if the box can be booted or flashed without the tuner connected, and yes my box did use to get very hot

box should boot without tuner mate, if it doesn't thats mean ur processore gone. I know somebody try with a new tuner but same result. Did u try to upload the xxx.co file for tuner? Cant remember exactly what its called.

[nobbystyles]

New problem now, the box wont boot with the patched niablo image, the image starts up but when it's booting the line on the LED only gets about a tenth of the way accross before it freezes.

I installed the Gemini image back onto the box and now there is NO tuner being detected. It was fine before. :dontknow:

Any ideas?

Cheers.

so we can confirm its not the tuner as even without the tuner box will get stuck on booting half way 'i think', what do you mean by processor gone like can it actually be repaired or replaced, if i can get the the processor or the main board replaced than i think box should boot. i know its better to buy another dm800 rather than buyin main board as will be costl but what bout the processer can that be replaced

[dctyper]

sounds like user error to me lol

[joy123]

User error? What u mean?

as in you might have flashed a bad flash

I don really know much about processor, somebody else will jump in to help u, but its might be not the processor, i know its very confusing, but hope its just a driver fault. But i think its start with a overheating issue. Did u had a fan or anythin? How long u were using before its breakdown?
What position u r in now? Did u flashed with old image and old bootloader? Was everything ok with old orginal image?

[Bonesy]

as in you might have flashed a bad flash

if it stick halfway booting, then I would agree a bad flash. just reflash it.

[cactikid]

dont think any box should get 2 hot.

[nobbystyles]

Think u need to replace ur xxx.ko file (tuner driver). Google it .

Done that, but when i replace it the box wont boot up, it tries to, but then just hangs. No matter what image i use, the box refuses to boot up when i replace the bcm7401.ko file, it's fine before i replace the file except i get the harware not verified error an there's no tuner detected.

I've reflashed with different images and bl, but the problem remains.

Take out the tuner and then try to boot, if it does thats mean ur tuner burnt for over heating.
Which i think happened. In that case u can call ur dealer to give u a replacement tuner or u can buy one. Those chines tuner really crap specially early one.

[waqasahmed]

thats the reason i dont want to buy a clone yet,as they have big problems.also the dm 8000 clones are in production

Yeah tried that and it still boots using gemini 4.4, so it looks like the tuner is goosed. The quality of these tuners are pretty dissapointing, even for a clone.

New tuner ordered.

Will u try one last thing? Flash nabilo 11 two times by a null modem cable and dream up.then check. Make sure u r doing everything right how to flash aw dreamup.

[dctyper]

can you explain nobby, what you do when you flash so we know your doing it right

the reason i ask, is i have had over 10 boxes from this chap, cable and sat and none have had issues.

Will u try one last thing? Flash nabilo 11 two times by a null modem cable and dream up.then check. Make sure u r doing everything right how to flash aw dreamup.
its impossible for me to flash by dream up as 'no ca error' message pops up so the flash button on dream up is disabled, only way to enable the flash button is by using enforcer and even after using enforcer i can force the flash button to be enabled but when it comes to choosing/opening an image after you press the flash button theres an error message 'file to big' keeps comin up, iv tried all sorts of images and even small files like bootloaders. only way i can get it to flash is by http and thats after i use dreamup that makes the box boot and i can keep hold of power button and 'stop' is displayed along with ip.
that way iv tried all images but still get error message 'dream multimedia error! on box lcd when i power off and than on. thats why i think its definetly hardware fault, but i will try to flash with the nabilo image twice by http and see if theres any change.
thanks

after using enforcer one time it should load ur bootloader back to ur box, u should ignor all the error, and finish the procedure, then u can flash via http or dreamup image+bootloader,

now ...what u saying, its sounds like ur problem is with null modem cable, i think, try not to use any usb adaptor , use only null modem cable see if you can get connect with dreambox,

just to let you know, if you connect dreambox via serial cable and try to load a image some times its say image is too big. so u can try, i dont think there is anything wrong with hardware, atleast u hope so:dontknow:

[nobbystyles]

Tried the browser way mate, pressing standby on box then plugging in power to get the ip, all is well so far ......i load the image, tried BH, Gemini ect, then flash to 100% , i keep the browser open and logon to box again and flash with the boot loader to 100%.

I've done the same with null modem lead and dreamup, the box flashes fine, except on black hole it wont bootup at all, the progress bar on the LED gets to about a quarter of the way across. With the patched gemini 4.4, the box boots, but no hardware is detected or verified, meaning no tuner, if i go to settings no tuner is visible in the menu, it just states "Tuner A" then underneath "nothing".

So at this point i think the bcm7401.ko tuner file needs replacing, when i replace it the gemini image wont boot in exactly the same way the black hole image wont. I've tried various images, and all of them either wont boot or they boot but with no tuner detected, then when i replace the tuner file the box fails to boot again.

I'm pretty sure it's a tuner issue, so i'll report back when i fit the new one.

[shaks08]

its a null modem cable connected with usb adapter as my laptop won't support it, but iv flashed dm500 with no problems and also cable boxes such as dbox eurovox.

It may sound silly mate, but make sure you're using the correct version of dream up. I tried with older versions at first and it didn't work, then i downloaded dreamup 1.3.3.4, and it connected straight away.

disconect all power from dreambox > connect null modem lead > click on "connect" on dreamup > plug power into dreambox > select flash > choose image.

[blueboy]

Try buying a new NULL MODEM cable, I tried everything and as a last resort I bought a new cable (maplin) I used the cable with a USB to SERIAL converter. and everything worked at last.

[nobbystyles]

Just one more things lads, i did a software update through the gemini image/server when i got the box. Could this be the cause of my problems?

That will reuin your image as your using a clone, but will not hard the unit in any way.
Just relfaahs it again and it will back the way it was:)
Do not update your software if your using a clone stupid :)

New tuner fitted, and everything is back to normal. :manuflag:

i dont get it like if your paying for it why are people buying other boxes to get channels when they paying for it anyway im sure you get them with a standard sky box if your paying for it like cable its different you dont need to pay for that its free to get all channels there must be a way because everyone trying to flash thier box etc to get sky channels

if you look at the linuxsat website, it states it is an chinese version!!!!!!! So there making ?40 profit from the same people i and others have bought for ?165. !!!!!11
sorry i think you have got your calculations wrong, we are offering chinese versions from china for less the ?150 -10% for members so it is less then ?135 + postage of ?35 in return you have a piece of mind that if anything goes wrong you send it to us in uk rather then your friends in china.

dream multimedia ->error! on the lcd. Can you repair this box or part exchange with a new one.

[slimane]

like the 8000, yeah would be great

Can you get a 800 clone with a DVB-T tuner anywhere?
Can you just use a original 800 tuner bought separately?

[Bonesy]

why get a HD box when no terrestrial is broadcast in Hd at present.

[uibo]

why get a HD box when no terrestrial is broadcast in Hd at present.
Whats the harm in being prepared ?
Where I'm at (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_video_services_using_H.264/MPEG-4_AVC#Terrestrial_broadcast_adoption) they do have some HD tests once in a while. And all 30 (24 cnxed) of the SD channels are in h.264. Not so many h264 boxes available with good pvr capabilities. The official twin-tuner PVR box is 350EUR and the cheaper alternatives seem to have some missing features:
* recording from epg
* watching other channels from same mux while recording,
* stable enough for use
* timeshifting
* automatic padding for EPG recordings
* streaming over network
Does the dm800 have all these features?

[davvo]

@Linuxsat
your website says Chinese dm800 ?220.00

[M4NIK]

hi this is my first post so hello
wow i didnt realize these clones had become so cheap when the geniune are so expensive
i was looking into getting the dm600 but one of these can be had for the same price
what price are the recievers from china now in this money crisis
and for linuxsat why so expensive now
again hi

[Superman]

The Reciever price in China has not dropped much, as remember you pay high postage charges from Dhl/Ups and EMS really cannot be trusted, the price is still around 250-280USD closer to the top end, then you may have custom charges on this, so you think custom charges are usually high for electrical goods, you may end up paying the same price as UK, then you must remember if it breaks the ?30 you pay to send it back? Ask yourself, is it worth it?

thanks

[M4NIK]

i have sent an email to the address in the first post enquiring about buying this box from them
just waiting for a reply

[Superman]

I can tell you the price of this guy, its around 210USD i think and 60USD Del, however, they have had some bad reviews recenetly, if you look on some other forums.

Thanks

thanks for the heads up
but i dont want to spend that much on my first box of ?220 here in the uk

[Superman]

Yes, i understand where your coming from, and if you dont have problems or customs directly from china is a great place to buy from, the cheapest in UK is 215 at the moment.

[M4NIK]

just got this back from china
works out as ?153.48

-DM800HD sample price: 200usd/pcs, 10-50 pcs price: 192usd/pcs
total cost for 1pcs is 250usd including all fee.
200usd + 38usd for dhl + 12.5usd for paypal 5% fee=250usd

dont know wether take the risk o just wait till january when new dm500hd and new tm hd boxes are released

[Superman]

Thats a good price, maybe its worth taking the risk, but then again as you said in January lots more recievers will be okay so price may drop.

[Sat-Shop]

Total cost $250 + the possability of having to pay import tax and VAT on top of that (add another 30% approx), for what at the end of the day is a fake... Save your money and see what the new year brings would be my advice.

[Superman]

I agree with Sat-Shop on this one, 250+30% of what they value the box to be, and trust me it wont be what you pay a lot of the time, think they 30% on 200?? were talking an extra 70Quid or 120USd
so your total cost is getting closer to 370USd if customs decide to.

But again its a risk, if it pays off, you get it nice and cheap, if it doesnt, then you dont basically

[cbl]

Hello,
I new in this forum and I just got two DM500s from China for 510$ inkluding DHL shipping. I had to pay custom 38$.

Thanks

Where can i find these bad reviews?

I was about to order from them but now i'm not sure anymore... And on january 1st the the tax-free limits rise. Maybe it'll be harder to order from china then.

Where can you order a clone shipped inside the EU?

[Superman]

DHL/UPS can be trusted, personally i only use DHL, EMS is very slow and quite often loose packages, There are a few shops selling clones in the EU, you can pick them up for around 215? Delivered, If you googled "Patch Dreambox Images UBB Forums" you can find the reviews on there. They are okay, but lots of people have had to send back for repair costing them ?40-50 quid a time as you can only send back via local post office due to customs in china, hope this helps

Super

[Sat-Shop]

Lot of scare mongering from competitors...

Hopefully we're not being included in that, just like to point out we're not a competitor here, we only sell the original and not much interested in what you can or can't get fakes and/or clones for... I was just offering advice based on what they are thinking of buying, but of course up to anyone what they wish to do. :)

The TM600 will be out before these and that is going to be a big hitter due to the price tag. around ?189.

Dont know if the specs are similar or not but for some the specs dont matter.

[firestorm]

at a ?189 pound for a hd linux box of good qualty you can to wrong

[M4NIK]

as stated above the specs i was most refering to is that is has hdmi instead of dvi
and the processor is bigger
i am not trying to say the 800 is crap or anything i know its a brilliant reciever im just saying that the 500hd fits my critiara
sorry to offend anybody
but the tm reciever does look very tempting

Hi guys!

Does anyone knows where to get these Clone? I saw it on a german forum. Here are the pictures. Price is ? 220 with shipping. (EU)

Looks very interesting!

Maybe you know a shop in the UK. In the forum someone said, the box is from the UK.

Lg

[waqasahmed]

Ah finally, the legal clones have came out!

[Bonesy]

yay!! glad to see :)

[waqasahmed]

I wouldnt have any idea on where to buy one from though! That receiver may have came from the UK, and the UK seller probably got it from China. €220 is a bit much, unless you got it a while back. You can now get the (illegal) clones for roughly $240 now

[Superman]

Hi,
Not a hint here...but i have them in stock..

I would go for a Chinese dm600s rather than a dm500s as the internal ram is really limited on that box and this will be an issue when you fancy loading extra plugins. Besides the dm600 is PVR box so though it costs extra it is better in the long term.
