    How to get your Dreambox 500-c Working again

    Right Guys.
    I
    have seen alot of questions asked on here about how to get your Dreambox 500-c working again.

    So heres a step by step guide on how to do it ok.

    Go to the download section (you need to do 5 posts to access this area.
    Download the New Diorj 0.6+AUroms dm500 Dreambox 500 i have uploaded in the download section ok.

    download it and flash it to your box you'll need your dreambox 500-c and a null modem cable.

    when flashing when it asks do you want to perform a flash erase just click no(nein) ok.

    then after it has finished flashing

    connect everything back up

    scan for the channels using bruteforce first,

    So do the following when the drambox starts up at the beginning

    language english
    save
    time settings click the down arrow on the screen and choose your time settings.
    then click save
    then choose automatic transponder
    choose bruteforce
    wait untill you see start scan (But dont click only free)
    then wait for the channels to download
    click exit 3 times



    then go to
    menu,
    service searching
    choose cable 6887
    wait till it says start scan (again do not click only free)
    then after it has finished click exit 3 times.
    go to sky sports 1.
    wait for about 1 minute

    everything should be working fine then

                  Made me chuckle,,,,,,,

                  1) why or where have you uploaded an image with the roms already in this download section?
                  2) make this diorj image yourself did you? :P
                  3) Keep on spreading the word, keep up the helpfulness

                  edited--sorry just seen date on original post, my apologies, but i have just chuckled louder and harder

                        skeel the starview 3 will never work again (once they switch to n3) unless they crack n3 and its not looking likely that they will anytime soon. ,so you may not get long more in any case. as for the dm500c i would think that will be able to be used in the future as it has a lan port.
                        you can access the downloads section by scrolling up to the very top of all these posts ,you may get firmware from the links in my signature area also. jim25b you should also look in the same places for downloads.
                        i love it when a dreambox comes together.
