I have no display. Please help.

Afternoon all. I have a nokia dbox 2 that i have messed up. When it turns on, there is no image and no dispay on the lcd screen. Its as if nothing happens. I have tried to use the ifa assistant but it is not working. I have read through a lot of threads and I can't figure out what to do.

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Ifa is the only way
If the box has nothing on the Display
It may Be goosed
Keep Trying IFA.................Paul

 

Thanks Paul.

Do you think I would have a better chance if I used a null modem cable?

thanks

JR

 

So they reackon
But cant remember the last time i needed one .......Paul

 

I have tried to IFA about a hundred times now and NO LUCK!

I still have no display on the lcd screen and nothing comes up on the television when it turns on. Is there anyone out there that has had a similar problem and fix it? At this stage I am willing to do anything, including opening up the box if needs be.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Which messages do you get from IFA.

 

Unfortunately absolutely nothing. When I try and IFA nothing happens. The status bar that should slowly move across the screen doesn't even come up.

 

What do you get on the display of the dbox.
If nothing what did you do to get such a behavior.

 

It happened about a year ago. I think I tried to FTP a new image on to the box using windows XP and I managed to mess it up. I now have no display on the box (or lcd screen) at this stage and i have no idea what to do.

 

Doesent look good mate ,wot area you in
A Null modem may help the Course..................Paul

 

Maybe the fuse in the power plug or power plug adapter is gone.

 

I dont think thats the problem because the light comes on on the lcd display but just no writing of any sort.

 

You can try to flash the dbox via the emergency flash method with null modem cable only and hyperterminal.

 

How would I go about doing that, thanks in advance.

 

In my oponion
It sounds lke its f**ked
You need to have some one in your area with d box knowledge
Have a look at it ..............Paul

 

There is a howto in the stickies at the digital-kaos forum.

 

Evening Gents!

I just tried the HyperTherminal but no dice. When I set up the connection and turned on the dbox absolutely nothing changed on screen, The flashing curser never budged.

Any further suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

 

If the connection setup is right and you get absolute nothing it looks like the box is dead.
Maybe the cpu is gone or such thing else.
