    I flashed 3 boxes with hadmads image. 2 working perfectly. the other one is a bit hit and mis.. doesn't always unscramble the channels. I think I might have damaged the the box, I tried to FTP the fix on this one 1st. I deleted some file by mistake. ( Can't believe myself ) and I am now wondering what steps to take. A factory reset and then re-flash maybe? Any advice would be appreciated. Big thank you to hadmad for making the fix easy for us gobshites. :)

    reset then reflashed with hadmads image. Still the same.. hit and miss... most stations unscrambled but some work sometimes and othertimes they don't. I have no idea why... still a lot better than a dead box though :)

    had given up all hope of the box ever working again until i saw the flurry of posts on the forum while i was away for a few weeks. just reflashed box with new image (thanks to step by step intructions for a novice given to me last time by markarman which i kept..thanks again markarman) and hey presto i'm up and running again. Have the same problem with a few channels (rte 2 and channel 4 strangely enough) not coming in but just change channel and change back again seems to work.... happy days
    so big thanx to all involved getting it back up and running again, especially for the simplified image version from rapidshare, as the other seemed like a foreign language to a novice like me. I am going to be sooo popular amongst all my friends who have one!! thanks again guys

    Messed up a dreambox by ftp'ing an image to "tmp" folder . Now i get nothing on a tv screen or p.c. screen, wont connect to dream up , flashfxp or filezilla,the only life that seems to be in it, is the green light on front , which also does not respond to the remote.
    anyone any suggestions.

    Or have i killed it ???

    i followed this instruction on another thread,
    as the box wouldn't connect to dreamup via null modem ,but would connect to flash fxp by router cable..
