I have a failed hack, tried the disconnect several times. I got the opening message every time, but after about one or two reboots it started playing my playlist, but choppy. I backed up the dms before I tried anything and I have the files. How can I manually put them back to restore my DMS. Do I need to reflash the phatbox too? Any help is appreciated!
-
Run the DMS tools, to perform a 'firmware upgrade'.
Select the correct firmware version for your box (the one already installed on your box) and ensure the option 'Install non-hacked firmware' is checked, and the option 'Reflash box' is unchecked.
Post a copy of any log files you have too... your box may actually already be hacked?
-
Thanks for the reply! I have attached the wizard log file. The phatbox is now working un-hacked but I would like to get it hacked:)
-
Attached! see, one person on the boards is smart enough to find the "attach" button instead of pasting EVERYTHING inline.
I'd give you a prize but I can't think of anything, you want a title?
-
Sure, just call me "wolfie the attacher" :)
-
Attach button...?
Sorry if this is a bit off-topic, but in 3.5 years on here I have never seen an attach button. Nor have I ever seen any attachments to any messages - including the one above.
So - am I blind, stupid, missing a few marbles, or some combination of the three? ???
-
You are with me Les, I've seen the option and attachments before in the past... but for some reason I've gotten lost somewhere. Could be an IE issue?
-
I normally use Firefox (3.0.5 currently) but have also tried IE 7 and makes no difference - just can't see it.
Where should I see it...?
-
Looks like there is a Javascript error, possibly causing this problem.
I've tried every single theme, and none show the attachments, so I guess it's no co-incidence.
Time for an update uncle Sam! ;)

Guys, when writing a post, to the bottom left of the text box there are "additional options." Expand that option. See it now?
-
I don't think adding the option is an issue.... it's seeing the attachment that is.
I never see attachments that have alledgedly been added to a post :(

...which gives me these options....

Nothing about attachments... >:(
Maybe I'm just loosing it... ;D

Did someone deliberately lock this topic? ;) Unlocked.....

I was wondering why this was locked, though we're well off the original topic.
Anyway, Les and Stuart, under "additional options" when either replying or posting a new topic, I have these options (which show up the same in Firefox and IE7 under XP and Vista at home, and even on my woefully outdated work computer):
Notify me of replies.
Return to this topic.
Don't use smileys.
Attach: (with a "browse" button to locate the file for attachment)
I can also see the attached file in wolfie's post.
What I do NOT have are the options to lock, sticky, or move the topic, which leads me to believe that it is not browser or java issue, but a moderator issue, since you guys are both moderators and I am not. Possibly Sam forgot to code in the line for attachments for mods.
-
That's possibly true :)
But the attachment doesn't appear against the post either....

Ooops! It might have been me pressing buttons with my eyes closed... (looking for attach)
Definitely loosing it...
