Hi

I thought I bricked my own box today by putting a original image onto a clone and I couldn't get the dreamup working but then tried the mini flash button on the back of the box by holding it in and restarting the box and holding in the standby button and then this reloaded to boot, then reflashed and all is well thankfully

That is correct mate.

If you have a mini flashup button on your SE ( Not all have them) you do not need the above guide.

Simply power down.

Push and hold in the mini flashup button and apply power while keeping the mini flashup button pressed till you see a IP on the SE front screen.

Use that IP in your browser to flash as normal.
 
is there any possibility that this image will not work with my clone ???
 
when you switch the box on look at lcd it will say what sim it as
 
as your dm800se have mini flash button on the back if not use tut above

The wrong architechture error means you have tried to flash a image for one of the other DMM models.

Make sure you flash the correct image for your model and sim type.
