Downloaded 2.8. Ran Setup. Started it up. Clicked on the Run Hack Wizard. It stopped at Step 5. Can't load PhatSig.dll because it isn't found. :(
My apologies, not sure how that one has slipped through. I've re-uploaded v2.8 with the additional DLL in the installer.
Please re-install and try again. Thanks for the report!
That fixed that. This is definitely an easier way to hack the box. Even got the nice voice telling me the box had been unlocked. Thank you.
Tried the create new DMS function. It partitions and formats the drive. That is all. No firmware files copied. Nothing at all on the partitions. Tried with and without the reflash option checked. ??? Should there be more?
Message at lower right says "DMS firware update completed successfully" but the log shows...
Drive preparation successful. Downloading firmware files...

Thanks for confirming the fix Glen. I'm aware of the download issue and am working closely with someone on this one offline. The problem is the firmware is failing to download.
I now have the reason for the failure:

Not quite sure what is going on here, as far as the code is concerned this should be being coped with:
Try
wr = CType(FileWebRequest.Create(_sourceURL), FileWebRequest)
resp = CType(wr.GetResponse(), FileWebResponse)
Catch ex As Exception
wr = CType(FileWebRequest.Create(_sourceURL), HttpWebRequest)
resp = CType(wr.GetResponse(), HttpWebResponse)
End Try
I guess it could be:
wr = CType(FileWebRequest.Create(_sourceURL), HttpWebRequest)
...performing an incorrect typecast - but why I'm not seeing that in the dev. environment is beyond me!
I'm going to try changing it to:
wr = CType(HttpWebRequest.Create(_sourceURL), HttpWebRequest)
and if it doesn't break in the dev. environment then I'll throw it back for testing.
I managed to reproduce this on a virtual machine, and turns out it was the wrong version of DMS.dll in the installer.
(I should have paid more attention to the 'duplicate exists' warnings ;))
Subject to the two people I've sent debug version links to, 2.9 will be available soon (also fixes an issue with 'Update Firmware')....
