5 resistors of 100 Ohms at 2,3.4.5 and 11 pin 25 pin male connector These labels are 1,2,4,5,6 tags that go on board Dream, you do not revolt it is not correct labels soldering those points, but my own label as indicated in Fig. On the other side to connect a 15-25 and this wire goes to the board Dream at no. 16 or to ground.

And it goes as indicated in figure, with very short holding soldering iron at these points because it is very easy to know how to come off, and then you will need to solder the SMD resistors, so that it does not keep as short soldering iron. When it all together, connect the 25 pin male connector on the extension serial cable 25pin / 25 pin m / f to the PC LPT port, you can now include the power to dream.

If the Chinese copy of your Dream suffered from the “bomb” then you will Shine on Dream no LEDs. This procedure requires repeated switching on and off the receiver dream to revive the process started, it is enough to click on the info.bat to verify that the tuner is working and what is the MAC address in the “dead” dream, and it will be written: As can be seen in it is the correct MAC address DreamMultimedije 00 09 34 01 a4 3f, it is because this process has been revived, and this is just repeated that it could be PrintScreen-at After pressing any key, the screen disappears, and now you can run write flash, then click on 2alps.bat: Flash-Gel takes about 2 min. And it shows you the percentage. This file is 2alps.bat. MAC address 00 09 34 01 4d 1f, it can at will change if you rename the file 2alps.bat 2alps.txt and open it with ultra editor, change the MAC address, and only the second half, as it must be among the first DMM 00 09 34 the other half can be any combination of 0-9 and AF.

To save and then rename again to 2alps.bat. This change does not have to work unless you have a local area network 2 Dream with the same MAC address, then one needs to address in this way to edit.

May 16, 2010 dreambox rs-232 commands Hi guys. * If the aspect ratio has changed since last time, create a command to the scaler and write it to the serial port.

After 100% you get this message: Btw, if you have an older copy of the Chinese Dream with Philips tuner, which you showed info.bat Then you use 3philips.bat. If you was Jtagging the DM500S you would end up reflashing putting another image on the box.

If you want to just recover or reset the password see these: Tool: Windows Utility to remove all Dreambox passwords How to: Delete password from Dreambox using TuxBox Commander How to guide: Changing a Dreamboxs password using DreamBox Control Center (DCC) How to guide: Reseting Dreambox Root password How to guide: Change the password on the Dreambox receiver. How to reset your Dreambox password using remote control Guide: Remove the password from Dreambox,with tuxbox Commander How to reset DreamBox password Theres a few more around the site, check the Dreambox section might be some of use in there, or clones like the EagleBox im sure we had guides for that too in the same password situation •. Greeting people, I have a problem with dreambox 500s a few days ago we stuck dream just a picture race in cubes. Turn on, turn off, only bright green light.

Try to flash the means of serial cable, PC will not connect Unfold the dream, since it is not a new feature there is no guarantee. Previous owner have worked with him I do not know generally not nice to put the jack or whatever the one that goes with the serial port on the plate.

Put a half rather than the whole as more fix it right again will not. I decide to try this with the lpt jtag Alem ride shining a red light the second time red 3 4 5 time red.. Try open info.bat lights up green. Obvious mac address alps tuner and are more open 2alps.bat finish all that you listed disconnected try again bright green just does not want to lights up. Try again 2alps.bat the same. I took some time for this message otherwise’m interested percent of you said that on XP sp3 reluctant to see that not percent is at my right sp3 not at all, or as in my case? Still like to add that I tried on xp sp2 64 edition is on it will not go to 2alps.bat just throw error Greetings to all forum.

My english is very bad •.

A how to guide on, how to repair the Dream Multimedia DreamBox model 5600 satellite receiver, using JTAG & serial (RS232) connections in case of flash failure, bricking, updates gone bad etc. Recovering the Dreambox (October 2009) My Dreambox 5600 stopped working one day. On poweron, it was displaying something like: “5600 boot” on the front panel indicatior, and then four dashes “- – - -”, and then nothing was happening, and nothing was displaying on the TV screen. The image was an old Gemini 2.90 of 2006. (Surely enough, I will never use a Gemini image ever again, after what these guys’ software had done to people’s boxes, but that’s a different story).

Here’s what I did to recover mine: 1. Connecting to the serial console The first step was to figure the exact details of my problem. To do that, I had to connect the dream to a serial console (in other words, to connect RS-232 port of the box to a serial port of a PC). I first tried to connect to a very old IBM ThinkPad T600. That didn’t seem to work. Looked like the serial port wasn’t working on the laptop, and the IBM setup utility wouldn’t let me get to the BIOS settings to fix that.

The ‘tpctl’ utility which could help me change the BIOS settings refused to compile on this old Slackware 9 system. Not wasting any more time with the laptop, I connected to the serial port of my desktop instead. The old desktop was also running Slackware 9. ‘dmesg’ reported the following serial ports: ttyS00 at 0x03f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A ttyS03 at 0x02e8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A S3 was the modem: /dev/modem ->ttyS3 So, I used /dev/ttyS0 to connect with minicom. Ran ‘minicom -s’ and used the following settings (googled them): 115200 N81 HW FlowCtrl off Then I exited to minicom and switched on the dream, here’s the boot log: Dreambox DM5620 loaded at: 005416C relocated to: 004416C board data at: 005216C relocated to: 00451DC zimage at: 004058D1 00501553 avail ram: 0050000 Linux/PPC load: console=null root=/dev/mtdblock5 rootfstype=squashfs ro Uncompressing Linuxdone.

Now booting the kernel and that was it, the dream was hanging there forever, with four dashes on display on the front panel: “- – - -”. Trying DreamUp Now that I had the dream connected via serial console, I wanted to take a chance with DreamUp (normally I don’t use it to reflash the box). I downloaded the Linux version and was able to run it on the desktop (Slackware 9), it said “Connected. Now switch on the dreambox”.

Well, the box was indeed switched on but DreamUp was not connecting. Note: The version of DreamUp that I had, refused to run on a newer Slackware 12 system despite being statically linked: $ file DreamUP_Linux_1_3_beta DreamUP_Linux_1_3_beta: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (GNU/Linux), statically linked, stripped $./DreamUP_Linux_1_3_beta./DreamUP_Linux_1_3_beta: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/libgdk_pixbuf.so.2: invalid ELF header (Update: well, just now I actually bothered to *read* the error message about the invalid ELF header.

Looked at the file in question and saw that it was a link pointing to the wrong place. Fixed the link, and DreamUp runs OK now.) 3. Checking JTAG Having got no luck with DreamUp, I opened the box, found the JTAG connector on the board and connected it to the paraller port of my laptop with a JTAG cable that I had. The cable was from Ebay and the description boasted about ‘working for most Sat receivers’ but with mine it just didn’t work. Prior to going and looking for a different cable, I decided to explore other options. One of them was the network boot.

Getting to the boot menu of the dreambox. Googled the instructions, connected to serial console, switched on the dream. Since I could get to the boot menu and instruct the box to boot via NFS, I attempted to build an official dreambox image and try to boot it. I was using the following sequence (the complete build instructions are available in Google): $ mkdir tuxbox-cvs $ cd tuxbox-cvs $ export CVS_RSH=ssh $ cvs -d anoncvs@cvs.tuxbox.org:/cvs/tuxbox -z3 co -P -rdreambox.

$ cd cdk $./prepare dm56*0 $ make checkout $ make dreamboximage_root $ make rebuild-flash $ make flash-compress The expected build result would have been the file ‘complete.img’ in /tuxbox-cvs/root/cdkflash. However, on both my systems ‘make dreamboximage_root’ resulted in error: On Slackware 9, it broke because the ‘sed’ was too old: sed: file. Line 21: Unknown command: “Q” I checked the problematic sed command on my other laptop (Slackware 12), and it worked.
