Require compatible firmware for Solid HD S2 3000 Full HD box

[rmg_hrr]

This is a popular brand in India, but current software has few limitations such as not supporting BISS key, DiseqC 1.1 not supported.
Can sombody provide compatible firmware for this box and tools which can backup the .abs (allcode) in case restore requires.

I tried with EromUpgrade.exe did not connect and ALI Editor extractSTB-> PC was also ended up incomplete.
Only UDF and DDf are extracting with ALI Editor.
It appears that the box is based on M3602 chip.

need a full dump to analyze
try using ali loader v2.0.0c

That screen looks almost identical to Manhattan

 

[Mr Tony]

the back panel looks like a MH too

 

[rmg_hrr]

hi, can you give me which version of MH it resembles and firmware link?
This STB does not contain any CA card slot and Ether net port.
Any remote key press sequence available to enable some hidden features like BISS key or DiseqC 1.1?

Is this firmware safe to use? I still don't have original backup, so haven't tried

http://www.4shared.com/file/Lc-KdfnH/solid.html ( believed to be bisskey enabled firmware for this box)
How to extract .abs out of it?

 

[rmg_hrr]

I dont have the dump, but have upgrade believed to be bisskey enabled check this link

http://www.4shared.com/file/Lc-KdfnH/solid.html

This is not working with usb option and giving data too large.

RS232 did not try as I don have restore file yet.

 

[xtgold]

I get invalid link

 

[rmg_hrr]

Added file attachement

I will try it on my openbox s10 later today

 

[rmg_hrr]

Ok Thanks,

Today using OpenBox S16 loader I am able to extract my current STB (original software ) all parts like maincode, bootloader.abs, *m2v, udf, ddf etc
but can not extract/save ALL Code chunk, it fails.

So still I don't have any full proof backup for my STB to do experiments.

Attaching all the parts for comparison, is it possible to recreate Allcode.abs using these?

 

[xtgold]

there is a program called dividir originally for opticum firmware that would split firmware into the individual chunks,and it came with a batch file for putting the chunks back together into 1 file.The batch file would have to be tweaked to match the original solid file names instead of the opticum chunk names/sizes/locations.
The solid firmware won't boot on my openbox s10 so it's of limited potential.

 

[xtgold]

couldn't get any of it to boot on my openbox.
the hardware must be too different or it must have some protection preventing it from booting.

 

[xtgold]

firmware with 128k size bootloaders are rare.

 

[rmg_hrr]

which boot loader, you verified? the one in SOLID.bin or the one which I uploaded as parts zip file. are they both having same 128kb size?

Or is it the S16 loader which i used extract parts padded boot loader to make it 128kb?

 

[xtgold]

hex editor shows both as 128k
Bootloaders were 2 different revs.
One was rev dvbs2_0.1.0 the other was 01.0.0
Many firmwares won't boot on the openbox,so I wasn't too surprised.
In most cases they have to be smt with --- in the rev and 64k size

dishtracking has a full dump posted this morning by somebody there
