Most useful image for genuine Dreambox 800

[hist]

I would appreciate your recommendation of an image for a genuine Dreambox 800 HD. Which one is - among so many - most advanced, most useful (with options), practical (ease of use) and efficient regarding quality of video & graphics?

I have just flashed with Nabilo Blackhole_DM800_07. From the site I downloaded it, it said is the newest version, but PC File Manager shows NFI file date from 2009, so I doubt is the newest one.

its 76C bootloader so if you are on 76D you must immediately flash the 76D bootloader after flashing with this image using the web browser method

flash with this image, do not reboot
open another tab/window with the IP of your DM800
choose firmware upgrade
browse to the 76D ssl file and upload that (you can download the 76D SSL file here:

click on reboot
all done

this image does not contain cams etc to install CCcam just press green button, then press yellow button for Addon, then choose Addons Download Manager,
then choose Dream Elite E2 Image Cams, then choose the required version of CCcam and download and install it, then ftp over your CCcam,cfg file to the /etc folder

As long you have genuine box, i think u should go for Gemini 5.10
it is the easiest to use

the edg nemesis 2.2 svn078 image is very stable
and you also load there edgextra2.1 url for all the
downloads from the extra server and it's even better
with the sharman glass skin

I wish to thank Blizzard442 for his recommendation of Phoenix Blackhole, to iKay for recommending Gemini 5.10, to Markshore for directing me towards Peter Pan image and thanks to Benny for recommending Nemesis. I will now look in more details to all your recommendations. I really appreciate your contribution. Big thank you, good guys!

After flashing "no CA found"

I am back to report bad news. I took advice and flashed my genuine DM800 to Dream elite image (see recommendation above) and on reboot I am stack at "no CA found". I understand this is a problem with bootloader.

In my box I have found Bootloader No 59 from previous Nabilo BlackHole image. How I can upgrade to Bootloader No 76, needed for Dream Elite Blackhole to function properly?

I already tried some suggestions like flashing with browser and with Dreamup enforcer, but still no result. I need a reliable method to do it.

How old is this box and does it say on a label anywhere what sim version it is, no59 awfully odd/old perhaps sim 2.00?

Date of manufacture is 2008.

Solution

After noticing that Dream Elite image I flashed to my DM800 came with Bootloader 76c, I searched for the same image with Bootloader 76d as that number was stuck on the small screen (exact message was: "sim 201 team Boot #76D error no CA Found").

When I found Phoenix image SSL76D... I flashed again with Dreamup with Enforcer. On reboot DM800 came back to life, fully functioning! Conclusion is: there was a Bootloader conflict between version 76c and 76d.

Perhaps this information will be helpful in two ways - to pay extra attention what Bootloader you have and what you want to load. If it is already too late, then you know you need to re-flash the image with appropriate image and Bootloader version as indicated on your DM800 small screen.

Did you follow the post #2 in particular this bit

its 76C bootloader so if you are on 76D you must immediately flash the 76D bootloader after flashing with this image using the web browser method

you should have flashed the second file in post number 2 AFTER the first one otherwise you will get exactly the problem you had, so in fairness the image is fine (ive used it on one of mine with no issues PROVIDING you flash the second file BEFORE rebooting after the 1st !!!!!!
There isnt a conflict as such between the 2 but without flashing the 2nd file over this is where the problem arose,

FFS The guy got a genuine box and people recommending clone images. Op you need too download original images only. Pheonix 76c/d is clone image. You now need dreamup and serial cable to fix your genuine box

And an image for genuine dm800 also. There does exist a pheonix image for genuine but it hard to find. I try to link you later today

Original Images for dm800

do not put any patch on over the image , just flash original image , NO76C/D NEEDED

Just a thought but whos to say it is 100% genuine, ive seen many people say they have genuine box only to later find out its a snide.
