(No SYSCFG found) Please ask for help". Could you help me? 16:31 < benedikt93> I can't really help you, but did you adapt all the 0x800c80 addresses in the commands? 16:36 < benedikt93> otherwise, this would lead to a thrashed sysconfig 16:37 < tsvetkov> in my case this address was 0x8028A60 16:44 < TheSeven> btw, those commands are lacking a zero in that number -.- 16:44 < TheSeven> tsvetkov: so you're sure that you used the same address for all those commands? and executed them in the right order? 16:45 < benedikt93> won't leading zeroes be added anymore? 16:45 < TheSeven> benedikt93: not a leading one 16:45 < TheSeven> tsvetkov: can you run the memalign command again and then the readbooflash command, but with 0 instead of 0x1000? 16:45 < TheSeven> and then emcore.py downloadfile
0x1000 test.bin 16:46 < TheSeven> and look at the contents of that file 16:49 < tsvetkov> 0 should be insted both 0x1000? 16:49 < TheSeven> no, only the first one 16:55 < tsvetkov> and what I should see? 17:20 < TheSeven> well, what is in that file? 17:20 < TheSeven> does it start with gfCS? 17:23 < tsvetkov> what is gfCS? 17:23 < TheSeven> 4 letters 17:24 < tsvetkov> no this file start with E..E 17:24 < TheSeven> so apparently you're the first ipod classic user who trashed his sysinfo data by fooling with emcore.py 17:25 < tsvetkov> and what i should do? 17:26 < TheSeven> do you still have the norflash.bak file? 17:26 < TheSeven> (in case that was created during the initial installation) 17:27 < tsvetkov> no I install iloader with instruction for Windows 17:28 < TheSeven> so did it create a /iLoader/norflash.bak file during installation? 17:29 < tsvetkov> no 17:29 < TheSeven> that's bad then 17:30 < TheSeven> can you do the following? 17:30 < TheSeven> emcore.py memalign 0x10 0x2000 17:31 < tsvetkov> yes 17:31 < TheSeven> emcore.py readbootflash 0

Stuff like hradware revision and the serial number are stored there 17:50 < tsvetkov> but if be able change serial and hardware revision? 17:58 < TheSeven> tsvetkov: http://www.datafilehost.com/download-d65f8dc9.html 17:58 < TheSeven> try flashing that to address zero of your bootflash 17:58 < TheSeven> that's about the closest we can get 17:59 < TheSeven> the other data in there is unique to each device, so we can't recreate them 18:00 < TheSeven> i tried to guess the hardware revision, i'm not sure if that's 100% safe 18:00 < tsvetkov> could you write some instruction 18:01 < tsvetkov> and i have ipod classic 160 thin 18:02 < TheSeven> emcore.py uploadfile sysinfo-classic-fake.bin 18:02 < TheSeven> emcore.py writebootflash 0

Could anyone give me a suggestion? 23:13 < TheSeven> Zulkaroth: based on which instructions? 23:14 < Zulkaroth> http://www.freemyipod.org/wiki/EmCORE_Installation/iPodClassic/DFUiTunes 23:14 < TheSeven> that wizard thing i just slammed into the wiki like 10 minutes ago? funny :) 23:14 < Zulkaroth> so would you recommend I wait until later to try it? 23:15 < TheSeven> hm, i'd like to get this sorted out as other people might be hitting that as well 23:15 < TheSeven> were there any other weirdnesses during the process? 23:15 < Zulkaroth> No 23:15 < Zulkaroth> Do you this it has anything to do with me using 64-bit windows? 23:16 < Zulkaroth> As in, do you think the driver for 64-bit windows is incorrect? 23:16 < TheSeven> no, the driver seems to work fine for me, and I'm using win7 64bit as well 23:16 < Zulkaroth> ok 23:16 < TheSeven> however i'm not using that exact version of the driver 23:17 < Zulkaroth> ok. If it helps, windows recommends the driver "Apple Recovery (DFU) USB driver" 23:17 < TheSeven> does that "incorrect parameter" thing happen during the installation or afterwards? 23:18 < Zulkaroth> It rejects the driver installation 23:18 < TheSeven> this smells like the winusb or wdf coinstallers are broken, but i thought i had fixed that long ago 23:20 < Zulkaroth> would you like to fix that and let me try again later? 23:20 < TheSeven> i just tried it, and it didn't happen for me :/ 23:21 < TheSeven> however this PC hasn't ever seen itunes so far, so that might have an influence 23:21 < Zulkaroth> ok. I'm fairly experienced with computers, so don't be afraid to tech-talk to me, but I am completely inexperienced in C/ASM [the only language I'm fluent in is python] 23:23 < TheSeven> btw, were the other instructions (steps, button texts etc.) accurate? 23:23 < Zulkaroth> yes. 23:23 < TheSeven> ok, so i guessed the english versions right :) 23:23 < Zulkaroth> Are you using AMD or Intel, and do you think that's relevent? (I'm on i7-940) 23:23 < TheSeven> i'm on i7-620M, and I don't think this is relevant at all 23:24 < Zulkaroth> ok 23:24 < Zulkaroth> I'm just not experienced with drivers 23:25 < TheSeven> what you might want to try is going to c:\program files (x86)\common files\apple\apple mobile device support\drivers or something and getting that inf file in there out of the way 23:25 < TheSeven> then, check if there's a copy of it in c:\windows\inf called oem*.inf 23:25 < TheSeven> then completely uninstall that device, unplug and replug your ipod, and try to install our driver again 23:26 < Zulkaroth> ok. Actually, I have something that might help. When it entered DFU, it automatically set the driver to an apple one; that could have effected it. 23:27 < TheSeven> that's what i'm trying to get around by killing that inf file :) 23:28 < Zulkaroth> I can't find either a file or a folder named "drivers". Should I be looking for an .inf file in the general area that appears to be a set of apple drivers? Will renaming it be sufficent or would I need to delete it? 23:29 < TheSeven> changing the file name extension should prevent windows from finding it 23:29 < TheSeven> and one of them is certainly in common files\apple somewhere 23:30 < Zulkaroth> there are many oem*.inf files. which should i rename 23:31 < TheSeven> the one that contains the relevant strings ("Apple Recovery (DFU) USB driver" and similar stuff) 23:31 < Zulkaroth> should I use windows search for that? 23:33 < TheSeven> i'm not sure if that one even looks at the content of inf files 23:33 < TheSeven> you can try of course :) 23:34 < Zulkaroth> true. btw i found an apple driver in "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers", usbaapl64.inf (also .cat .sys and .dll) 23:38 < TheSeven> yeah, that's what i meant 23:39 < TheSeven> a copy of that will probably hang around as an oem*.inf as well 23:39 < TheSeven> you can try to catch it by its size 23:39 < Zulkaroth> thats what i'm doing :p 23:40 < Zulkaroth> is the ? (as in oem?.inf) the same for every computer that has the driver?
