Nokia Dbox2

dbox well its been sitting in the loft for 7 months till my 13 year old son came across it and asked what it was. when i told him and the problem with the image file he went to google and asked for help which took him to this site. after buying a sertain crossover cable (2.50) he read part devil 1916. i said it would not work as it is a sagem dbox 2 he flashed the box with a sportster image and scand the box and to my suprise hey presto it acturally works what a xmas box that was thanx

 

your box sounds like its lost its image file and dosent matter how much you scan it , it will not come back as you have got to flash the chip inside do you know how to flash!!! i mean the box.

 

i have the idiots guide but dont know how to send it to you as i am new here

 

Hi everybody sorry if this has been mentioned earlier but I`ve looked and can`t see it anywhere. When watching the dbox2 I can see another programme very slightly in the background. I have tried moving the dbox from my other things ie pvr and dvd player but it doesn`t seem to make any difference. Also I have a 3db attenuator in line with the f connector to the dbox2. Any ideas would be welcome. Cheers and all the best

 

Can someone email me the idiots guide. PM me and i'll send you my email addy.

I pm'd bluemoon but I got no reply as yet.

Cheers

There's a lot of good info in the guides posted by benifa.
reccomend new users read them.

 

Great guide benifa.

Can someone post me a link to where I can download DBOX2-IMAGEFLASHINGASSISTENT listed in the guide.

I have a box working at present but there is a block on the top right hand of the screen. Hopefully flashing it will sort the problem or I will need to send it back.

Cheers
Robert

 

Found it. Sorry!

 

All,

I suddenly thought that some who are new to the Dbox may mistakenly assume that I wrote the guides I posted - I didn't! In fact, I'm a newbie myself. The guides I uploaded are all written by other people, and the credit is due to them entirely. I simply came across them along the way, and put them together for convenience..

 

Nope it says on the guides who wrote them but cheers for posting them!

 

HIya guys.. FIRST POSTING here. Could anyone help. On 1st Jan i woke to find all the channels except the terestial ones (like BBC1 ITV) were not working - just a blank screen. I tried RE scanning but no luck. I could only view the BBC and ITV CH4...but no sports etc..
Does anyone have any help/ suggestions experience??
many thanks

Download this:

Then read the one called BeginnersGuide. It tell you how to flash the box. The image you have on it is probably faulty/outdated.

 

thanks dude - BUT it says i need a password for encryted fine.??

the password is

so you think the problem where i cant view SKY sports/ movies or the other subscription channels is due to the image and it needs re-flashing -

Read the posts on this page of the thread for a link to the image.

 

Just for info i updated from commando 5 to 6 and am not impressed. I have two dboxes one running 5 and one running 6 and 5 is far more stable. I think there are a few bugs in 6 still so i would advise people to wait a while till 6 is all sorted. Problems include channels freezing menu's freezing and the box will shutdown sometimes by itself.

 

i have a box that is rebooting by itslf. i have flashed the 1.75 uk image on it but still no joy has anyone got a newer uk image and whats the difference between
Cryo_Sportster_Pro_1.02_Ultra1.4b_2x.img and
Sportsters1.75(2x).img
thanks in advance
Cheers,
K

 

I have a Nokia Dbox2 (NTL) and its saying that its 'waiting for time' can it be fixed, I have tried Sportster and commando to no avail. What do you think?
