Yes, you can but you will need to flash the SSL just after flashing the image (before reboot), and then go on the driver folder to replace the driver bcm7xxx.ko.

Just after flashing the image, be sure you DON'T flash again the SSL, as it's already in the image and linked to the image itself (needs that specific one to work).

Flash first the SSL84J, then reboot the box. And flash finally the Japhar image (that already contains the SSL84J, so no need to flash it again after image).

Re: Question about DM800HDse OpenPLi image - 08/13/22 02:08 PM

Flash chips have some bad sectors (as HDDs etc).

But this one could be also related to a PSU that doesn't give enough power to the motherboard, to be able to write into the Flash chip (as 0x00000000 with all 000 means start address, and it's strange).

I solved the problem with japhar flasher and the extra option built into it, which has a repair of bad sectors and box again work good however, I found out that image for original DM 800HDse cannot be installed on a Japhar sim, despite being told here that it can, at least I didn't succeed

If you install an original image, you need to flash it, and prior to reboot, you need to flash the SSL84J. This done you will have to boot the box and replace the driver file in the driver folder,

in DM800HDseV2 the folder is : /lib/modules/3.2-dm800sev2/extra
and file to replace is : bcm7405.ko

On other boxes, it should be around the same (eg. dm800sev2 will be dm8000 or dm800se or dm500hd, etc), and the bcm file will always be a bcm7xxx.ko

I do exactly as you described but after flashing the image and then before rebooting I upload and ssl I get a green screen on the TV and no access to ftp. The receiver starts to load the image, the yellow bar on the display starts to move and after a while a green screen appears on the TV and everything stops.
i use DCC and FileZilla for ftp transfer

You must NOT flash the SSL after the image... as the image ALREADY has it inside.

Yes, I tried that, but then immediately after restarting, I get no ca found and box becomes unusable.
At the moment the receiver works with Open pli 7.3 star for japhar sim and it works well but the image is quite large and the flash is small and loads a lot and sometimes everything slows down and restarts itself, so I tried to upload a little bit small image to leave more free space in the memory.

Re: Question about DM800HDse OpenPLi image - 08/13/22 08:58 PM

If you get NO CA FOUND, it means the image you uploaded wasn't a Japhar image... only with Japhar images you must not again flash the SSL as it's already in the image.

With other images for other sims, you will naturally have to flash at the end the SSL for your sim, before rebooting.

I can't quite understand you. Maybe there's something small I'm not doing right to make it work. My question is now that the receiver is working with a Japhar sim image and I decided to try to install an image for the original DM 800HDse, what exactly should I do?

and I realized that I don't have to install ssl in the japhar image because it's already in it. But then how exactly do I fool the receiver and get it to work with an original image

Re: Question about DM800HDse OpenPLi image - 08/13/22 09:34 PM

If you want to install an original image you will have to do this :

1) Flash the original image to the box
2) Flash the SSL84J for Japhar
3) Turn off the box
4) Boot the box, and then with FTP replace the driver file (bcm7405.ko) in /lib/modules/3.2-dm800se/extra by the one from the patched drivers that is named as well bcm7405.ko

You will find for the DM800HDse (v1) the driver/ssl on the topic below,

I do everything exactly as described but it doesn't work. After the third option, the receiver starts to boot but gets to a green screen and I can't get to FTP to change the driver BCM 7xxx.ko

Yes, i tried to flash this image. https://openpli.org/download/dreambox/DM800+SE+HD
Because this image smaller in size compared to open pli 7.3 star

Re: Question about DM800HDse OpenPLi image - 08/14/22 03:10 PM

It should work fine, if the box doesn't want to boot... perhaps the original drivers are trying to stop you from patching them... could be.

If you have an original Sim / A8P, put it back, install the image and modify the bcm7xxx.ko file with the Japhar One. Do a backup of the image. This done, flash the SSL84J. Turn off the box and replace the A8P sim by the Japhar, and boot the box. It should work and be patched. Do a backup of the image (so you have it in Japhar version).

You have one here, OpenPLi 4.0 patched for Japhar,

Re: Question about DM800HDse OpenPLi image - 08/14/22 03:43 PM

Just posted the image you indicated (OpenPLi 4.0 20191216), that I patched as explained (Flashed the image, flashed the SSL, rebooted the box, and then replaced the bcm file). My DM800HDse box is with Japhar, so I done all as explained and it worked (No need of A8P, and drivers doesn't stuck the box if SSL is Japhar and drivers Original).

Re: Question about DM800HDse OpenPLi image - 08/14/22 03:43 PM

Thanks very much for the link of Open pli 4. I dont have A8P sim card. I will try image Open pli 4 from the link you posted
Did you make the image work directly with Japhar sim without having to change drivers and flash ssl? I have no problems with any image that is made to work with the Japhar sim.
Most likely your receiver is different than mine and that's why the image works for you. Mine is called Max 800 HDse and it's a clone with sim ferrari original.

The OpenPLi 4 that we published (20191216, as well as the previous from 2018) is built for the Japhar sim, you naturally need to have in your box a Japhar sim to have it working.

Your Max 800 HDse was based on Ferrari, but did you replaced the Ferrari to the Japhar Sim ?

This image is excellent. Best Japhar sim image I've come across so far. It is smaller in size and has enough free memory. I recommend it. Thanks a lot for sharing.
