thanks for the quick reply
sorry not au fait with the terminology
ftp?
var/keys?
where will i get the rom7 fix?
do i use a null modem cable?
i did d/l laky-pro-1 cp1&2 they came up as an image file any idea what they are for?
cheers
 
You dont have to have a null modem cable a network cable will do fine.
Download image flashing assistant from hallenberg.com and flash over the image you downloaded.
Laky pro already has the new au rom files as far as i remember so you wont have to bother about that.
Make sure you flash the right image if your box is a nokia it will be a 2x if it is sagem it could be either but the new version of IFA will tell you.

From personal experience I would recommend the latest blade or andromeda images as laky gave me problems.

One more thing make sure you select evocam once your up and runnig for the AU to work.
Good luck.

thanks,
i have a null modem cable can i use that or is it a network cable i need ?
where do i find blade or andromeda ?
so just open the ifa and flash the image over to the box and that should do it ?
sorry to ask so many questions but i dont want to bugger it for him !!
.cheers..
 
hi got the rom7 file how do you ftp it cheers

Don't be a lazy fooker m8, there's plenty of info available on the www.

Google a nice piece of work called PT-1' helpfile...........everyone who owns a dbox2 should have it since it explains everything you will ever need to know about the dbox2........including how to FTP
 
thxs rodboy guess iam in wrong place for help

You are in the best place for help mate, I've explained what to do but I am fooked if I am going to give you a tutorial on how to FTP when there are so many different clients available, all with slightly different routines............the next part is down to you my friend

PS the thumbs down is for losers mate......don't insult me !!!!

it's the right place - just don't expect to be spoon fed. if you spent 5 seconds looking at 1 of the million guides on here and educating yourself a little bit, you'd get a lot further and a lot more respect.

you just want free telly with zero effort. jog on.

Hi

You`re in the right place m8.You`l get the help you need but you got to help yourself by doing searches and reading up, you`l be surprised at what you`l learn just by reading related posts etc. If you get stuck after post your prob and people will help you.

Regards

No hard feelings mate, but make no mistake, this is where you want to be !!!

Post for help and you'll get it, maybe just pointers at first..........there's too many people come and go when in trouble and never offer anything back to the forum........make sure to come back and help others once you are fixed.

all the best
