    Default DM500S BLANK AFTER INSTALLING PLi IMAGE

    Hello mates.. Im so much confused after uploading PLi firmware (pli-jade3-dm500-20090627-6494.zip) into my DM500s. Screen shows nothing and remains blue which means as if nothing is connected to a TV (A/V inputs)
    what shall i do to get my 500s back to life? do i need any other firmware to revert it? if so which is the firmware to use and how?
    Will so much appreciate if some one can give a hand.

    Thanks in advance
    Nash

    nash, don't take this wrong way, but you did unzip the file before you uploaded it to the dreambox ?

    I assume, you have tried unpluging waiting a few mins, powering it back up too ?

    OK, you must have a null modem cable and a copy of dreamup universal ? so you should be able to just reflash the box, maybe re-download your image file, just to make sure it is ok too.

    there was another "gotya" and that is you have to unplug the serail cable from the back of the box after the reflash otherwise it halted awaiting on serial I/O stuff

    I'd often rebooted with the null modem cable connected. hmmm

    I've had a similar problem on enigma 2 (DM800) clones.. Never had a problem with Pli Jade 3 on a DM500 clone before though.

    Anyway, I was able to flash to Jade 2 and it worked fine.
