How to Flash the Japhar Sim to OS v6 ?

1) Download the Archive (RAR file) of the Box version. See links below.

2) Extract the files from it and you will have 3 different ways to flash the Sim to the new Japhar OS v6.

BEFORE APPLYING THE SIM OS UPGRADE BE SURE ALL CAM ARE DEACTIVATED !
Set CAM to "Common Interface" mode.

Best TIP : Install brand new image OpenPLi for Sim Upgrade via JAM.

a) Use JAM 5.x, leaving the sim in the box and launching the LIVE upgrade of the sim Japhar in the box.
- Select the first option of JAM : "Japhar addons Manager Come To Our FORUM"
- Select then the box sim upgrade : "Japhar Sim Card Flashing DMxxxxx v6"
- Let the box flash the sim itself, with 2 reboots and at least 5 minutes of work to do the whole job.

Remark : The JAM way to work will need to have a Kernel 3.2 image, like OpenPLi installed in the box (NOT Kernel 2.6).

OR

b) Install the ipk file (same as the one from JAM), that will reflash the box with 2 reboots and 5+ minutes for the job. AGAIN you need a Kernel 3.2 image here for the ipk to be successful (only for DM800HD Kernel 2.6).

OR

c) Get the .bat, .exe and .nc3 files in your PC, and with a GCR2 Programmer to flash the sim directly with your PC. You could need to launch the .bat file twice as on XP once is enough, but Win7+ it will need two as the second will show a lot of numbers and be a successful second pass programming.

3) You will have now your Sim compatible with all images v6, and for DM800HDpvr/DM800HDseV1/DM8000HD will be compatible with v3-v5 images. For DM800HDseV2 images v6 will work BUT NOT v5 that will need flashing the new SSL89-v6.

Can I boot with Ferrari sim, hot replace to Japhar white card ( without OS, not flashed) and use 1 or 2 method?

With way 2a, you don't need to replace the sim (it stays inside the box with no need of removal). Just important is to install first the OpenVision image with Kernel 3.2, and launch the JAM options/upgrade as described. Only for DM800HDpvr Kernel 2.6 is OK for upgrade.

I must reject old sim... I ask not for me.
Also, I upgraded my sim in old openPli4 v15 on dm8000

The only way to flash the sim if you remove it from the box is to flash it with GCR/PCSC programmer with the option 2c.

Options 2a and 2b, will reflash the sim in the DM Sim socket on the motherboard (Will need to work a Kernel 3.2 image, only for DM800HD a Kernel 2.6).

Thx for clarificaton! And very nice job!

Ok, thanks!

"b) Install the ipk file (same as the one from JAM), that will reflash the box with 2 reboots and 5+ minutes for the job. AGAIN you need a Kernel 3.2 image here for the ipk to be successful (only for DM800HD Kernel 2.6)."

Does it mean I can Flash DM800PVR with kernel 2.6.18?

Yes you can flash the sim Japhar (v3 or v5) to OS v6 having a Kernel 2.6 only on DM800HDpvr, BUT remember to turn off the CAM if you have a Cam working, changing to Common Interface or no Cam.

Hello
something not very clear to me on DM800SeV2
To have V5 images work, you need of course to first flash SSL89-v6
then Flash OS6 with different options
But then you still need to upgrade drivers to make image V5 work or not ?
Thx
