DP301-13 single TSOP reprogramed- NOW NOTHING?

[PEA]

1- cut trace
2- made vid-mod using a 9 volt battery
3- cleaned TSOP and EPROM
4- reprogramed with TSOP and EPROM from bank
(same build config. and others)
5- removed battery and connected jumper again

6- read with Jkeys- all looks OK. shows IRD number and Box Keys
7- no response from receiver. No green light!
8- checked voltage and confirmed that there is 3.30 vdc

Any ideas??

From what I have read here in the vidmod how-to and did myself you want twelve volts.

I have never heard of using a nine volt battery before.

Is it a dp301-013 reciever?

If so you did undo the ground from the two pads on the bottom or top when you j-taged didn't you that could be the problem?

I have never been able to write to the TSOP chip on a dp301-013 without the two pads grounded.

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, a 9 volt battery works fine. The TSOP cleaned fine
and programed fine. The receiver, when Jtaged shows
IRD number AND box keys!

Must be some other problem.

Still need other suggestions. Thanks.

im having a simialer problem, are you sure the eprom wrote correctly, mine did that and when I tried to reprogram everthing i get an error writing epprom at 0%, I believe some how maybe the eeprom chip have been damaged, mine also still shows the right box keys and every thing so im sure the tsop is ok. I am going to try and learn to use wall and see if it helps. if so I will post back so you will know.
btw if anyone can tell the way to program the epprom with wall, it would help me alot.
if that does noy work im going to try an onboard programer for the eeprom chip.
as soon as I know something I will post back

3- cleaned TSOP and EPROM..........How you clean EEPROM??

7- no response from receiver. No green light!.....Light should just flash on for a few seconds when first plugged in with no card installed .

8- checked voltage and confirmed that there is 3.30 vdc..........3.3v where, the spot or SB35 or both??

i was wondering about #3 myself but did not want to ask

[PEA]

Hey guys,

Thanks for the response.

Sorry about the mistake on cleaning the EPROM. Not possible
using Jkeys. I just programed over the original.

No light. Not even for a few seconds!

Checked the voltage at SB35 only. Where is the "spot?" Does the
3.30 vdc need to be there also?

By-the-way, IRD and boxkey numbers are from the new TSOP
programed info. This makes me believe that ALL of the info was
corectly programed. This info is contained in the last few hundred
bytes- right?

[BirdieMod]

IRD boxkey build info is all in the last locked sector so your mod should have worked.
Did you unground pad one or R79? It will not turn on with those grounded.

[sukh77]

Why did you use the flash from bank?
What was wrong with yours?
What did you edit in flashedit?
What did you save the virgin eeprom as?
What did you put in the box that popped up when you created the virgin eeprom?

1- I used flash from the bank because I lost the original
2- I didn't use flashedit because the flash that i used contained both
IRD and boxkey info. It was not a virgin eeprom I suspect because of
the info contained
3- I used the EPROM info that was included with the TSOP info

For BIRDIE-- yes, I ungrounded pad R79

I have modified many DP301-10. I clone them all to the same TSOP/EPROM,
never had a problem. This one is driving me crazy. Becomming a fixation for
me!

[skinerd]

Get a virgin DAHA virgin flash file, edit your numbers into it, make a DAHD virgin eeprom, both with flashedit, then load both....

OK- I loaded a virgin flash and modified it using flashedit. Now my
receiver will have the green light on for about 8 seconds and then it
goes off.

Tried to find a virgin EPROM but no luck. Using flashedit2.0vs2 I tried to
open another EPROM that I found at a TSOP bank. It will not open! I
used the dropdown menu to show "EPROM", loaded the EPROM in the
open window and pressed OPEN. Nothing happins. Any more ideas?

I appreciate your responses and think that I am getting close. Excuse
my learning curve though this thread will certainly help others.

When you open a file in flashedit to change your numbers, there is an option in the save menu, "save as", then "virgin eeprom", then name it something you will remember, flash edit will then ask for the config of the board, I always use a DAHA flash and a DAHD eeprom,........but make a xxxD eeprom for what ever flash you used.

First, I would like to thank all those that have helped. Your input
was invaluable! I have learned to use FlashEdit. Great program.

I have made a TSOP flash for DASA which was the orignal one used
on my receiver. The only difference is that the orginal software version
was P204 and mine is P200. I don't think that there should be any
practical difference. I also built a DASD EPROM which is the build configuration
on the motherboard.

Applied both the new TSOP and EPROM to the receiver. NO problem!
Checked 7FFFFFAC and confirmed that the address was 0000.

Removed all modifications, ungrounded R79, attached jumper and
confirmed that there was 3.30 vdc present at the proper points.

Disconnected JTAG and pluged in the receiver. Green light for 8 seconds
and then nothing??????

I hate to admit defeat but this one is driving me crazy. Just out of ideas.
Seems that everything is working as it should but no joy. If anyone has
any more ideas I would be happy to try them. Otherwise I am going to
trash the DP301-13 and admit that I was beaten. That SUCKS!

[Crazy1_79]

Put a card in it! LOL j/k the create a dasa eeprom as well although that shouldn't matter, try erasing sector 48 on flash one and restream, see if you can force a update. don't put a card in the receiver when you update.

[sukh77]

The tsop you got it was a single tsop bin right? What # file did you download.
Now make sure in flashedit the App Area CS and Proper App Area CS match.
Also make sure the Bootstrap and Bootstrap CS match.
IRD# should be 00 XXXX XXXX Make up 8 digit number and replace with X's You have to have zero's in front.
Now make 16 digit boxkeys.
Don't change anything else
Save as personal dump
Go back and save virgin eeprom.

Answer the questions also.

Answer the questions also.

1- Single TSOP from another site
2- App Area and proper App Area CS do match
3- Bootstrap and Bootstrap CS do match
4- IRD # is the original
5- box keys are the original
6- Save as a personal dump--- DONE
7- Save virgin EPROM------------DONE

SUKH77- Thanks to you I have learned to use FlashEdit. I believe that
everything is being done correctly at my end but you never know.

[sukh77]

What do you mean original? From the file or original from your IRD.

Also which file # did you download.

1- I used the original IRD number and the original box keys that
was assigned to the receiver. I had originally programed a card
and was able to extract the information from it. This all strated
because there was a lock on PPV and porn :-(

2- R0055XX38XX-301.013-18DB-DASA-10E-P200

[skinerd]

If you will PM me your receiver number, boxkeys, and an e-mail adddress, I'll send a DAHA tsop and DAHD eeprom that I assure you will work in ANY single tsop 301-013.

[sukh77]

There u go letting him take the easy way out. JK. Long as it works that's all that matters. Skinerd u still using that 510 file I sent u.

[EMC510]

Well here my 2 cents on this 301-013. If you get the green light to turn on than off. Let it sit for 10-20 min. with everything hook up to the sat, and the tv. My does that but after the wait, everything work fine. So give that a try.

[BirdieMod]

I agree, Hook it up, I bet once the sat cable is connected it turns on. Later builds like DASA seem to do this.

Latest TSOP and Eprom build was from #96 on this sites
"bank". It is a DASA file at NP203. Same results.

Left the receiver attached to the satalite antenna for 3
hours as suggested. No change. Still only getting the green
light for 8 seconds on card in/out or AC plug out/in.

I will wait for SUKH's files before trying anything else.

Thanks again for all of the support.

[sukh77]

U meant skinerd not me. Skinerd said he will provide u with the file. Did u pM him the info he asked.

Did u try to power up the IRD using the remote after the led/light goes out.

sukh, sorry. I was mistaken. It was actually SKINERD that offered
the files. Yes, I have sent him a PM and I am waiting for his response
now.

I have tried to reset the receiver using the remote but no response.

Thanks for hanging in there with me. Hate to have this receiver be the
first that I couldn't repair.
