  • dead 5620

    Please provide some information about the hard- and software used.


    Box type: 5620
    GUI (enigma1/enigma2): enigma1
    Firmware version: 1.08


    your question


    I got a very serious problem with my DM 5620. There were some sparks in the powerboard and then the box didn't boot just entered an endless "5600 boot" cycle. It did not respond to DreamUp and I could see nothing in Hyperterminal either. I took it to the service they fixed the power problem but could not do anything with the booting one. They also tried to load a bootloader by jtag but it did not respond. Finally, I was told the flash had died and no chance to repair the box.
    I would like to ask someone who has an unused, old, remaining in stock 5620 motherboard to sell it to me for a reasonable price.


    I appreciate any help

  • DM5620 sensitivity and frontend driver

    Please provide some information about the hard- and software used.


    Box type: Dreambox 5620
    GUI (enigma1/enigma2):
    Firmware version: cvs 1.09


    your question: Could you, please provide a new frontend driver for DM 5620 in order to improve the sensitivity for low SR channels? I tried to get some response to this before but no-one from DMM seemed interested in it. I tried several images and figured out that those based on firmware 1.06 had a much better sensitivity than the new ones. So the problem is just partly hardware based (we know the LG tuner is not the best one). The old images though suffer from instability, tuxtext problems and the nice new features (like cifs) don't work in them. I hope DMM programmers read this forum and will do something nice for all desperate 5620 owners.

  • Firmware für 5620s ?????

    Hi everyone,


    I hope I can write here in English. My German is very insufficient.
    My concern is also the tunerdriver. I don't know whether it's easy or not to fix the low sensitivity problem but one thing I noticed. My box is much more sensitive when I use the 106 firmware. So, if it is possible, DMM should publish a new release using the old tunerdriver but the rest of the firmware is the new one.
    Regarding the support, my humble opinion is that support doesn't end when the product is not made anymore. We paid a lot of money for the box so we expect a little attention for a while (for a couple of years). Or, if DMM doesn't want to deal with 5620 anymore, make the source code public and a Linux enthusiast will solve the problem. The tuner itself (LG-TDQF-001S) is not bad, other companies use it and it is quite sensitive.
