Nokia Dbox2

Hey Fekker

Thanks for the help - much appreciated. I will go tinker now..

 

hi im using comando six but cannot get any channes to come up ive selected my area done service scan several times it finds 188 transponders but never any channels, is there something im doing wrong or could there be a problem with my dbox? ive also tried sporter image to no luc and ive read comando 6 is a good one to use, any sugestions welcome...

 

Have you tried "Bruteforce" and "Fast Scan" set to OFF?

You could always get a services.xml file for your area and FTP it into your DBox.

 

just a little note,
my mate borrowed a box, he's been in his flat for 6 years now, never had t/w, plugged the box to the t/w wall connector that the previous tennants had, and it worked, full channels
this was done with a dreambox, so i presume any box will work.

I managed to find the settings for the audio in the menu under Main Menu, Settings, Audio, Volume control = ost

I dont know what ost actually is but now the volume is the same as my other pace box and can be controlled by the remote.

I hope this might be of some use to someone.

Incidentally, is there a guide anywhere to the menu options anywhere online as some of the abbreviations are a bit obscure.

Replies appreciated

 

Please forgive my newbie post, however i would like to know if you have to pay for N=L for a basic package before you can hook up a dbox2? and also is there any way of them knowing that you have de srambled the channels to get it for free?

 

You need a live feed into your proberty, broadband or a basic package will do. They will not know because the box will not talk back to them like a rented box.

 

HI all. I bought a nokia dbox2 and it worked for a week. I messed with controls and channels went blank. I managed (finally) to flash image (given to me by seller as "original image") using command centre. I got Kein System and having trawled through endless forums and tweaking my settings I still can't flash an image using IFA. Please help me as I am slowly going crazy and this dbox is taking over my life.

 

You have probably flashed the wrong image type, you need to make sure you choose the correct one for your box. Nokia DBox2 will be a 2X image whereas Sagem or Philips can be a 1X or 2X image box.

Look here at the last post for instructions.

Well i have broadband at the moment so how do i get the tv signal is it from the other coax connector on the N=L box? Or do i need to split the broadband cable?

 

Split the broadband cable.

 

Thanks for your advice. I'm now getting "Lade Software" now when I try to flash an image. Any ideas? Thanks again!

 

That means it's "LOADING SOFTWARE", does it keep saying that? or does it complete?

 

Hi Fekker. I gave up after about half an hour. Below is what I got in the dialogue box. When it got to the last line nothing happened for ages and I gave up.

i live in leicester, i am willing to help, if you PM me i will guide you through.

 

Sometimes the IFA prog doesn't tell you it's finished. Can you get any prog's, does the box display a startup screen, menus? Are you flashing a correct image (1X image to 1X box, 2x image to 2X box)?

Remember that you have to close IFA before you reboot the DBox or it will go into "LADE SOFTWARE" again and can cause a "KEIN SYSTEM" message and you have to start again.

Download IFA, it has command centre within it and automatically sets Command Centre up for you to correctly flash your DBox.
