I did at least 5 units of 800 with CA error. Attached is the 2nd stage. you MUST HAVE A GOOD WORKING nfi image, not the same nfi that gives you CA error, so to revive your box. Check make sure your BL is correct as per your DM800 you have, NOT the BL you wish to have.
Make it simple, go back to your original vanilla image using dreamup 2nd stage, you shall get your box back to alive.

After you connect your box up, remember to drag the "DM800_repair" onto the DreamUp empty area. You should find the dreamup is now connected to your Box. After which you select your or a vanilla nfi ( the original file of your DM800 preferred, not any thing new). This take abt 45mins to complete. Good Luck.

The above is simple and ok for most.

The other 2 methods are: Jtag which you need tools and .bin files which is not easy to get as different country area, different flash ID, will have different assembled .bin files.

The last method is for very professional, lift the Flash chip and reprogram with a good .bin file. This method is tedious but for those who have hot-air blowergun only. Usually they have several pre-programmed good chip standby to exchange. For a Pro, this method takes about 5 to 10 mins or less.

WARNING: THE LAST 2 METHOD NEED TAKING OFF THE COVER, IT WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY.

Hello,

I've receive yesterday one DM800SE.

I've try to flash by firefox a new image because my box don't work fine.

Now i've no ca found...

I'll try to use the usb cable to fix this problem, thank you for many informations about this pb on this thread.

Firstly big thanks to Maddogs who pmed me this solution he got form another forum. I just tested it and it works

To cleaify to everyone, the dm800 showing No CA Error is NOt, I stress NOT a hardware fault, but a software problem. A lot of people are having to spend money returning their units to supplier due to getting this error, which is cause by us either putting wrong image on the box or by us updating the software. So hopefully this will save you the money in shipping back.

No CA Error is cause by the 2nd stage bootloader becomming courpted. Either by you flashing an image which does not have timebomb removed or by updating an timbomb removed image via the software update which will put the timebomb on the box and courpt the bootloader. (so dont update your image!!!)
I have done the 2nd solution myself and know this to be a fact as this software fix has fixed my box.

So let me introduce you to: DM800 Clone Serial Flash Enforcer

'' DM800 Clone Serial Flash Enforcer
Made by and inconjuction with the Clone manufacturers!

Use if DreamUp will not connect to your 800 Clone.
read pdf files inside. ''

here is two solution
No ca found by 2nd stage loader
This can be done in 2 ways.

1) You have to have a working dreambox.
2) DM800_repair, you alter dreamup to be able to use greyed buttons.
Now for the first sollution.
1) Connect working dreambox DM600/DM800.
2) Open dreamup, press connect.
3) When dreambox is found by dreamup, insert Null-Modem cable in
the broken dreambox.
4) Press flash button, and chose a firmware.
5) The flash progress will probably hang, its OK.
6) Open dreamup again, connect the broken box, press connect.
7) If all went ok, you can now flash box again, (Use only serial
communication)


Now for the second sollution
1) Connect broken dreambox DM600/DM800
2) Open dreamup, press connect.
3) When you see second loader error popup, just press ok.
4) Open http://www.gsmsweden.com/forhike/sat...stage_pack.rar
5) Drag DM800_repair in front of dreamup, and press dream multimedia logo.
6) Now press the greyed Flash button, and chose firmware.
7) The flash progress will probably hang, its OK.
8) Open dreamup again, connect the broken box, press connect.
9) If all went ok, you can now flash box again, (Use only serial
communication)

Remember rep to maddogs for finding it, and of course the maker of it.

NO CAM FOUND

Would any working dreambox do like a 500s

[tixx]

do these fixes work on clones as well as original boxes? Just tried flashing mine and have gotten the same message.

Im not sure if its a clone box or not though.

[odbc]

I tried the Dreambox OPtiFlash Enigma2 EDition, but i did not get it to run on win 7. I think i have to rely on DreamUP

[Araaf]

DreamUP and sunray flashup not working for me.

I've tried to fix the 'No CA found' message on my Dreambox 500SE HD clone, but without luck. I will now try the Optiflash Enigma2 one. Hopefully this will succeed...

[lexkam]

I didnt knew I had a clone until I got the CA error. Did not buy it myself, it was a gift and the buyer thougt he bought the real deal.
Now lets try to fix this! hope it wil work, to be continued...

I got it fixed. I found out, I didn't have a sim1, sim2 or ferrari sim card but an E-Star Sim in my DM800 clone (had to take it apart to check the sim)
After downloading the E-star tools DreamUp version, the E-star Image Converter (for converting original DM800 images) and the right SSL files.
Flashing the thing with the SSL and Image was easy, no "TO BIG" errors and no more CA ERRORS!

Installing CCcam was the next problem but turned out easy as well; just put the cccam.tar.gz file in the "/temp" directory on your Dreambox with "Dreambox Controle Center" and install it by using the "Blue Panel" (and point out the location to /temp)

the link for the no CA fix is down - does anyone have this file available?

I have just found something simalar and uploaded it here
Digital Kaos - Downloads - DreamUP Patched dm800 clone

[kadnor]

i just pressed on the sims with my finger , the receiver came to life once its booted. There i glued the simm 2.01 firmly . its been workin for 3 months now.

Dm800SE Sim2.10 SSL84B clone was working smoothly. Butby tyring to flash a D-Eli 3.0 enigma 2v 3.2.1 . We used sunray Flash Up, to add other plugins , which is missing in that image.
Now after booting, I got a blue light on the front screen. No further progress.
What are necessary steps to take and what tools I shall require.
The NEW box has reached me only 3 weeks ago.
I refuse to think that it is dead, there may be a way out
from the ICU unit.

Would be most grateful if you would kindly extend your technical assistance.
Thanks in advance.
