    DM800HD SE won't start -no null modem cable

    Hi guys,
    I am a real noob on Dreambox. I had been using a DM500 for about a week learning how to use and install plugins etc. I got my own DM800HD SE today and was trying to install a plugin. It did not seem to find anything in the list but said there was an update. I think it put an original version on it. When I rebooted it it did not come up and says R01: na ca found.
    Yes this is a clone.
    Is this what happened?
    Reading different threads shows that I need a null modem cable. I did not get this with my box, even though the product page on the supplier stated it would be included.
    Is this a special type of USB cable or can I use anothe minu USB?
    I have a real small flat mini USB that I used to jailbreak my Apple TV. Could this be used?
    Any help on this would be very appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Rick

    How to recover your DM800 SE & 500HD Clone From NO CA ERROR with SunRay-FlashUp and Browser

    First you need a USB-A To mini-usb-B to connect to service socket on back of receiver, and a Network cable to Connect Receiver to PC



    Download

    1 Sunray -Flashup for 800hdse

    2 -- Because sometimes a patched image will not do the trick, i did chose for this manual the factory loaded image and the correct SSL82 for this box

    AllRussian_20110201_Download_link

    Here the SSL82 For DM800SE

    1--- Connect USB cable to service slot on DM800SE/DM500HD and USB slot on Pc. Windows will then install the driver

    You will notice, windows created a virtual Com Port connection to be be used ( in this case Com Port 4)


    2 --- Switch Receiver off and connect Network cable Receiver and Router

    3 --- Then Start SunRay- FlashUp, Tick Use Network, Fill the relevant boxes with local pc IP and Romote ip of your choose and click Connect.

    Program will ask for you to Switch on the receiver.

    4 -- It will then go into HTTP mode

    5 -- At this stage, you open your browser and insert the romote IP shown on the 800LCD

    Page will open as per bellow and then you chose the option Update Firmware.

    6 --- Click Browse and navigate to your image

    7 --- Chose the image and click Open

    8 --- Now click Flash button

    9 --- Image will start to

    10 --- When it finishes you can click the back button of your browser so we can then send in the bl82 do not reboot

    11 Browse and select the SSL82 for your DM800SE Clone

    12 --- Once again Click Flash


    13 -- After finishing click Reboot. In Most case you will need to do so manually



    Box will then reboot and come back to life with image we chose to load. Then you can load your Patched image of your coice as box is functional again



    Thanks Joedenoble

      Thank you!
      I cannot believe that a regular USB to mini USB worked. Windows 7 64 bit found the device, downloaded the driver from Windows Update and installed without any issue. I could then boot following the instructions.
      Thanks again.

          Once u have resolve the issue, u can flash any sim210 image of yr choice. If u have save the channels bouquet, u can skip the scanning. Ftp yr keys & roms to the correct folder and ensure mgcamd is selected as default softcam. You should then be able to view the encrypted channels.

                  I own both an well worth the extra 50 quid imo, faster processor makes it a lot smoother, colour oled screen (bit gimmicky but does look nice ) , and ability to stream hd over local network
