    Flashing Image With FlashFXP

    Just wondering if it is possible to flash a new image onto my nokia dbox2 using FlashFXP. If so can someone give me detailed instructions please and also what image would be best suited.

    First thing you need to do is make sure you have the right image for your box. 1x or 2x chip.Then set up a network between the box and your pc.FTP the new image to your Dbox into the tmp folder.Once its there you can close fxp down.

    On dbox derpending on what image your using find the option to update software. Settings maybe... Write/back up one partition......, flash without bootloader... Choose image....and thats about it really

    Today's report is black and white.The Liverpool fans were not the cause of the disaster.
    The panel has quite simply found 'no evidence' in support of allegations of 'exceptional levels of drunkenness, ticketlessness or violence among Liverpool fans' and 'no evidence that fans had conspired to arrive late at the stadium' and 'no evidence that they stole from the dead and dying'.

          Does it take a while for the box to reboot after flashing?

            When flashing is complete it gives a message telling you this, then the dbox reboots into new image.

                if you have no back up of services ( which i forgot to say to back up.....oops )
                Then do a slow scan and you should get channels back.Or get a copy of services for your area and ftp them to dbox.

                  Too late now, but if you saved the previous image and the tux folder.
                  Before putting on new image.
                  Then if the new image isn't good enough you can quickly return to the old image. Also the files that are needed are in the tux file and can be extracted and
                  transfered to the new image. Tux folder is less than 1Mb

                      Hi ema. are you asking how to connect your dbox without a router?

                      If this is the case you need a crossover network cable (RJ45 crossover). It must be a crossover type and not a normal network cable. It goes from your network card on your PC/laptop to the network connector on the back of your dbox

                      have a look at this thread
                      hi guys whats the easiest way to try and connect my dream box to my computer . i have been told to get a cross over ethernet cable . not too sure on what do after that lol . im not too sure on how to do it and everyone was a great help with the keys and things so thought i should be at least trying to have a go at trying


                      Once you have the cable you can connect using the instructions in the guide here and an FTP program
                      right ive seen too many people thinking that they need to add a new image, nothing is further from the truth, you only need to add the new fix file to your old image. now im presuming that some people might find the idea of flash fxp (ftp) a bit daunting if they have not used it before so heres a little help. this is based


                      PS I think you can also use a null modem cable and some software but I am not familiar with this method. One of the other guys will help you out. Just ask
