Ran the latest Phat Hack wizard. Got this error message:
"It would appear the patch failed on your PhatBox, please join the PhatHack Community forums [http://forum.phathack.com] and post the contents of the file PHTSYS/logfile.txt
Patch was not applied or failed to start, there is no patchverify.log"
Sequence of events:
Wizard indicated this was not the original DMS, clicked "Next" anyway. After getting the "remove DMS" message I couldn't find any area to click in thew wizard to stop the DMS, so I tried to do it through "my computer" but th edrive did not show up. Removed it, put it in the box, radio now indicates there is no Phatnoise drive. Put cartridge back in cradle, restarted wizard, got the message above.
Here's my Patch Log:

When the patch runs, you hear several audio tracks, telling you essentially the hack is about to run.
Did you hear those?
If so, after the one saying the hack is about to run, you should hear a separate voice announcing the hack has run, and if you didn't hear that it's possible you have a hacked box already, although to confirm that you'll need to use the latest version tools that I've not yet finished.
However if you didn't hear the first set of announcements, then you may need to be sure you have switched your PhatBox to run in Playlist mode.
-
Thanks for gettign back to me promptly.
I did not hear tones or voices (other than the ones in my head ;)). The radio seemed to be looking for the box but not finding it. How do I set it to run in Playlist mode?
-
Okay, so when you applied the patch, the box stopped working?
If so, you probably tried to do two things at once (apply the patch and a firmware update for example) and that is a combination that will never work (and impossible to test for).
Concentrate on getting the DMS working again (use the DMS tools to apply non-hacked firmware), and once you have the DMS working again, then apply the patch.
If you don't know how to set the box to run in playlist mode (the default mode) then you probably don't need to know (until you've got things working nicely), and is also dependent on the head unit.
-
Okay, re-booted the box and applied the patch, but get this message when I put the DMS in the cradle and restarted PhatHack tools:
It would appear the patch failed on your PhatBox, please join the PhatHack Community forums [http://forum.phathack.com] and post the contents of the file PHTSYS/logfile.txt

-
*** Edited, because it hurts my eyes and wasn't relevant ***
-
Okay, I'm going to take a copy of those results because there's obviously a logic flaw somewhere there.
You're box is indeed not hacked, the 'Failure:' entries in the log indicate this.
Reboot the box a few more times to see if this log changes, if not, then I think you need to try the ramdisk.sig corruption approach.
-
When you say "reboot the box", I assume I need to then re-insert the DMS and run the hack files again?
-
Yes... :)
-
Obviously I'm challenging your assertion that anyone with rudimentary computer skills can run the patch!! ;D
I'll report back after a few reboots.
-
Ah, to the contrary you are successfully applying and running the patch - but it is not taking. :D
And one wouldn't expect everyone to understand the flow, or the reasons/causes for this (I myself am not fully versed in such reasons!)
Unfortunately these things happen, and sometimes it does take a few goes before it applies, and on the odd occasion the ramdisk.sig corruption techniques appears to solve the problem. There are others with better knowledge of the actual patch than I, I just wrote the little bit that makes it easy to apply the relevant parts to the DMS.
Good luck, I'm sure we'll get you there one way or another :)
-
Okay, so here's the latest:
I re-booted and at first I got the opening announcement, but then the head unit would shut off. The first couple of times this occurred I would get the opening announcement each time. Then I re-booted and the head unit now does not recognize that the box is there. So I put the DMS in the cradle, ran dmstools and got this message:
The wizard has confirmed the Patch succeeded!!

The hack had already been applied.
DMS files restored successfully. You can now prepare a new DMS for use in your newly patched PhatBox/Keg.
I'll post the phtlog separately.
-
Hmmmm. computer now says it cannot read the logfile.
-
It might delete the log file after successful confirmation....I don't recall if that's the case or not.
But the log file speaks the truth.
You now have a hacked box, congratulations! :D
-
Guess I'm halfway home, then! Do I need to reformat my DMS or somesuch?
-
Nope, your DMS doesn't need to be touched. Carry on using it if you so wish, or look at setting up the new one if you intend to replace the disk.
-
Okay, so I loaded my DMS on PMM, then did the save and eject and it's back to playing music again.
Thanks for the help; much appreciated!
