      One month after buying my clone dm800 I had to have the tuner replaced . I also own a clone dm600 and a genuine dm600 but clone dm600 will not run the latest Open Pli image whereas my genuine dm600 is fine so I have to agree with Opsmonkey.

        The old clones used to overheat.. The newer ones have a fan in.. If you are that bothered buy a laptop cooler and put the box on top of that

          I dont agree i have a genuine dm800 and i used to have to use it on the side because it got so hot i thought it was going to catch on fire, i bout a dreamcooler for it and the genuine was fine, a few months after i bought the clone L3 witch was good but signal wernet brilliant, and last week after i bought the new dm800pro for a friend i bought myself one and sold my old clone this week on ebay, and i goto say the signal is better than genuine and it runs cool

              Hi,

              dm800s box is perfect.
              Also lots of support on all the forms.
              Easy to use.

                  i've had a good read and would like to flash black hole i've found 2 NabiloBlackHole_DM800_ss69-modified.nfi
                  and NabiloBlackHole_DM800_011G2.nfi

                    The ss69 will be too old for your boot loader and I have never heard of 011G2. The last image I flashed on my clone dm800 was a a Dreamelite sim 2.0.1 s76.

                      If this is the one you got doesn't it come already with the image pre-installed?

                            You need to flash an image that is sim 2.01. 76c bootloader compatible. If you flash it with an older bootloader then you will need to flash the 76c flash back onto your box otherwise you will end up with CA error. See attached not tried this myself so read carefully before you attempt anything on your box.
