[00:00:04] it's too early for itunes then [00:00:24] use our driver, as described [00:00:39] [23:05:06] extract it somewhere, then in device manager, right click the apple recoveryy usb device, select Update driver software, then "Browse...", "let me pick..." (the bottom-most option), then Have disk [00:00:39] [23:05:37] point it to the folder where you extracted the zip, and choose "iPod Classic/Nano3G Bootrom DFU" [00:01:12] then follow the other steps [00:02:29] i'm going to be away for a while, brb [00:05:51] btw: there's a bit of discussion about the problems that the guy has restoring, but his ipod was broken somehow so you can skip this [00:06:17] at the end of that, there's a message from me, saying: and for the logs, the last command is: xxxxxx [00:06:31] you need to run that after you're done with the previous steps [00:10:39] fml "could not find specified dfu device [00:16:35] what exactly is listed in the device manager? [00:16:50] unknown device [00:17:30] try updating the driver on that, pointing it to the one that user890104 instructed you to [00:17:38] will do now [00:18:16] windows was unable to install your unknown device [00:18:53] uninstalled it now its showing up as ipod recovery [00:23:29] theseven as of right now I have a soft-bricked device.... I cannot restore my ipod classic in itunes because it cannot contact the ipod software recovery server [00:23:40] That's why Im trying to restore this way [00:24:02] hm... last time I messed with this, itunes 9.2.1 worked just fine, while newer versions had problems [00:24:23] yeah I install 9.2.1 and it failed [00:24:32] however, given the WTF and FIRMWARE DFU binaries as well as the big IPSW file, you can manually restore it [00:24:50] for that you will have to get these drivers working though [00:25:19] how would I do that though? it keeps saying could not specified dfu device [00:25:25] could not find* [00:25:31] not quite sure what user890104 was trying to instruct you to do (I'd have to read the backlog) [00:25:48] he gave me this http://files.freemyipod.org/~user890104/freemyipod/logs/20131010-restore-ipod-classic-without-itunes.txt [00:25:52] but maybe zadig could be a viable alternative for the drivers, if he's trying to make you use ipoddfu.py [00:26:29] yes, looks like he's going for the non-itunes route [00:26:47] is there another way because itunes couldnt work? [00:26:50] in that case, assuming you have python and pyusb already set up, grab zadig and let that one build a driver for you [00:27:02] no clue what that is [00:27:28] http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/libwdi/zadig/zadig_v2.0.1.160.7z?r=http%3A%2F%2Fsourceforge.net%2Fprojects%2Flibwdi%2Ffiles%2Fzadig%2F&ts=1398979643&use_mirror=optimate [00:28:28] So i just run this? [00:29:15] yes [00:29:21] and install driver? [00:30:41] alright the driver was install successfully [00:31:33] now try ipoddfu again [00:32:06] See i don't know what that is, the commands right'? [00:32:33] just try again whatever failed before you fixed the driver [00:33:47] getting this http://gyazo.com/6a7b364e48ec7509d09170af782d02b8 [00:36:42] despite the device now showing properly in the device manager? [00:37:16] showing as ipod recovery [00:38:14] what's the device instance path? (on the last tab) [00:39:15] USB\VID_05AC&PID_1247\87020000000001 [00:40:01] 1247... hm... let me look that up [00:40:38] classic 3G WTF mode. hm. [00:40:54] so something (itunes?) already did the first step for you [00:41:14] I uninstalled itunes lol [00:41:29] ...but didn't reboot the ipod after that. doesn't matter though. [00:41:32] go straight for the FIRMWARE step instead of WTF [00:41:42] now why doesn't it find it... [00:41:43] where would that be. [00:42:11] ignore the Python3\python.exe ipoddfu\ipoddfu.py WTF.x1223.RELEASE.dfu [00:42:17] should i Install itunes and see if it can recover it? [00:42:19] and skip to Python3\python.exe ipoddfu\ipoddfu.py FIRMWARE.x1241.RELEASE.dfu [00:42:31] alright [00:42:47] we still have the problem that ipoddfu doesn't find the ipod though [00:42:55] yup [00:42:55] what kind of driver did you let zadig use? [00:43:01] I think it presents you with multiple options [00:43:24] winusb v6.1 [00:43:39] which other options do you have? [00:44:02] libusb libusb-win 32 [00:44:12] try libusb win32 [00:44:26] alright installing now [00:44:55] installed successfully [00:45:23] Python3\python.exe ipoddfu\ipoddfu.py FIRMWARE.x1241.RELEASE.dfu ? [00:47:38] showing as ipod recovery "This device is not configured correctly. (Code 1)" [00:53:46] Am I screwed? lol [00:58:34] hm [00:58:38] whatever code1 means [00:59:28] Bleh D; [00:59:34] * TheSeven needs a windows expert to deal with this [00:59:56] I fucked up my ipod lol cant even recover it D: [01:00:08] maybe if i installed windows again it can restore it? [01:00:12] itunes* [01:02:46] I think i'll just come back tomorrow or something [01:02:55] been trying to deal with this for 2 hours :( [01:40:24] <[Saint]> Assuming you can get it into DFU mode (hardware controlled), and you have iTunes installed, then yes, you can recover this device. [01:40:38] <[Saint]> iTunes isn't even strictly necessary, but, its the easiest method. [02:20:31] well, unless itunes is just broken, as it seems to be the case here [02:20:49] with not even 9.2.1 restoring it properly, complaining about server problems [02:23:52] *** Joins: rod_ (558b0356@gateway/web/freenode/ip.85.139.3.86) [02:27:50] kkk [02:28:12] hi, i was trying to rockbox my ipod classic [02:28:59] stuck on - Eject that volume - nothing happens after that [02:29:14] sorry about my english [02:30:21] I've a quarter of the ipod's screen black, and anthe other 3/4 with the apple in the middle......
