Hack to fix the "Error retrieving DMS drive id" with PMM 3.92 problem
« on: May 18, 2008, 10:20:10 pm »
I originally posted this solution in the original thread where I did some investigation, but I thought this deserved it's own top-level thread.

I came up with a hack to eliminate the "Error retrieving DMS drive ID" problem!  8)

I've been using 3.76 since I put the 120G Samsung in my DMS, since 3.92 didn't work.  Today, I accidentally ran 3.92 - and it 'updated' my database before it got this error.  After that, running 3.76 told me my database was out of date... so I had a reason to try and fix this.

Going back to my original traces, I saw that 'DeviceDMS.dll' contained the code that was checking the device ID. I started with comparing the version in 3.76 and 3.92, and I saw that after the list of drive models in the data segment, there was a list of 'other' vendors.  In comparing the lists, I saw this difference between the two (at about offset 779936):
3.76                                3.92
Fujitsu MHT2020AT                   Fujitsu MHT2020AT
FUJITSU MHT2020AT                   FUJITSU MHT2020AT
Fujitsu MHS2020AT                   Fujitsu MHS2020AT
FUJITSU MHS2020AT                   FUJITSU MHS2020AT
PhatNois e DMS                      PhatNois e DMS
PHATNOIS E DMS                      PHATNOIS E DMS
PHATNOISE DMS                       PHATNOISE DMS
eUSB                                eUSB
Compact                             Compact
EPSON                               EPSON
Canon                               Canon
USB Drive                           USB Drive
USB DRIVE                           USB DRIVE
Card Reader                         Card Reader
Maxtor                              Maxtor
LEXAR                               LEXAR
Storage                             Storage
HITACHI                             HITACHI
Generic                             Generic
Sony                                SONY
SanDisk                             Sony
Samsung                             SanDisk
                                    SAMSUNG
                                    Samsung
                                    SigmaTelMSCN
Going back to the drive properties, I saw that the drive was listed as 'SAMSUNG HM121HC' - and then I noticed that there was no capital 'SAMSUNG' in 3.76 (which worked), but only 3.92 (which didn't work). So, I opened the 3.92 copy of DeviceDMS.dll in a binary editor (actually, I used VIM), and changed the new 'SAMSUNG' to read 'XAMSUNG' -- and now 3.92 starts and finds my DMS without a problem! ;D

This looks interesting!  I personally haven't had the drive ID issue but others have.  Hopefully they are watching this.

If we can get further confirmation your approach works, I'll integrate it into the hack tools.

Nice find!

That seems backwards... you're saying if it IS in the list it doesn't work?

Backwards or not, it works!

I also have a Samsung drive, 160GB in my case, that I could not previously use with 3.92.  Used VMI to change "SAMSUNG" to "XAMSUNG" exactly as jlv wrote, and can now use 3.92, no problem.

Kudos to jlv!

(Hmm...noticing Western Digital is not listed, and wondering if adding that as an entry would have any impact on the WD 250GB drive issues....)

If you can get it added, and get it working let me know.
I'll see what can be done to 'automate' things my end.

According to this, NOT being listed would be a GOOD thing...  perhaps those are the drives it tries to retrieve some ID from?  I should try screwing up ALL the entries to see if that works too...

Well it does seem odd if this is an exclusion list, because it has the PhatNoise entries that get reported back as the drive IDs for my DMS and I don't get any problems with my original DMS.

Perhaps that list is split in two somehow...

I think this is both an inclusion and exclusion list.  Bearing in mind that I know nothing about dlls or hex/text editors, nonetheless in VIM one can see a difference between certain entries (not in the capitalization but in the ^@^@ thingies), suggesting that some are there to be included (e.g. Phatnoise DMS, Toshiba) and some are there to be excluded.  This would explain why changing SAMSUNG to XAMSUNG allows the drive to work.

(BTW I tried to add Western Digital or WDC to see if it had any effect, but all it did was corrupt the dll.  Again, I don't know what I am doing anyway.)

You're right they are referenced in two different subroutines:

I didn't include the whole list of strings. There are a number of specific disk models listed (like the "Fujitsu MHT2020AT"), followed by what would obviously be USB device names.  After that looks like the list of excluded drive vendors.

Yes, it become clear from sbingner's disassembly that this is what it is.  Thanks!

(BTW I tried to add Western Digital or WDC to see if it had any effect, but all it did was corrupt the dll.  Again, I don't know what I am doing anyway.)
If you want that to work, make sure leave a valid set of NUL terminators.  These strings are packed in the DLL's data segment, and they are padded to 8 bytes.  That's why 'SONY' has four NULs (0x00 or ^@) after it, while 'Generic' has only 1 NUL.  If you really want to try your test, try changing 'Storage' to Western' or 'IBM' to 'WDC'.  That makes it so you don't have to add/remove NULs.

(if you use VIM, make sure to do a ":set binary" before writing the file).

If you're trying to MAKE it work by adding it, I would suggest replacing one of the TOP strings, maybe one of the Fijitsu ones...

The lower ones it had to be removed for it to work, so I wouldn't expect changing "Storage" to "Western" or "IBM" to "WDC" would help

Yes, trying to make it work.  I know it should be one of the top strings, but don't know how to do it without screwing up other values.  Whatever, I don't think this dll is the root of the problem with the WD 250, other WD drives work fine.  Just wishful thinkin'...

If you mean this problem:

Update for anyone else who might be interested in using a 250GB DMS:
...
3.92 gives the "error retrieving DMS ID" that also happens with some other drives, and just won't work.
...
3.76 seems to work at first, but then I get write delay errors and the phtsys partition disappears.
I would guess that the first problem could be overcome by the right change in this dll, but the later problem you still need to resolve. (did the update to the tools help?)

What is the model id string that is returned for the drive? I.e., from Device manager->Disk Drives.  I'm guessing it's something like "WDC WD2500BEVE-00WZT0".  If so, you would change the DLL like this:

Code: [Select]
Toshiba MK6021GAS...TOSHIBA MK6021GAS...Toshiba MK6015MAP...
Toshiba MK6021GAS...WDC WD2500BEVE-00WZT0.shiba MK6015MAP...
Where the .'s represent NUL characters.  Notice that this eats into the next string (to the code, the actual next string would become '0', which shouldn't matter).  The key thing is to keep the exact same overall length -thus, 3 NULs become just one, and you overwrite the next string.

In VIM (where a NUL is shown as a ^@ and entered by hitting either Ctrl-Q Ctrl-2 or Ctrl-V Ctrl-2) this would look like:
Code: [Select]
Toshiba MK6021GAS^@^@^@TOSHIBA MK6021GAS^@^@^@Toshiba MK6015MAP^@^@^@
Toshiba MK6021GAS^@^@^@WDC WD2500BEVE-00WZT0^@shiba MK6015MAP^@^@^@

But I also see that there is no exclusion entry for WD (or WDC) at all, so I wonder why it doesn't just work.

Can you post the modified dll? Good find!

Edit: Used VIM to change SAMSUNG to XAMSUNG and all is well. Love being able to modify the voice prompts in PMM.

WOW!

I have a SAMSUNG 120GB Drive and had to use 3.76, but wished I could use 3.92

Using your info and absolutely no idea what I was doing...well maybe a little

I found and downloaded a VIM editor (had no idea what it was or how to use it)

Installed PMM 3.92 and before reboot...

Found the DeviceDMS.dll in the phatnoise program file and opened it with the VIM editor

Scrolled down about 95% of the way and found SAMSUNG...changed it to XAMSUNG (had to copy a capital "X" from my notepad, highlighted the "S" and then Pasted the "X" over it and then saved the change...didn't know how to change it otherwise since reading instructions takes too much time for me)

Rebooted and ran PMM 3.92 and then added the 120GB DMS storage unit and it worked like a charm

THANK YOU!!!

I would like to indicate that the Hex Editing as mentioned above worked for me.  I was having the same error after hacking my Audi A4 Phatbox today.  The hack applied correctly to the PB, and I then removed my original 20GB drive from the cartridge and replaced it with a 40gb drive.

After formatting the new drive using DMS HackTools v2.12, the drive would not be recognized by Phatnoise Media Manager v3.92.  I would get the Error Retrieving Disk ID.  My new 40gb drive was a Hitachi, while the original 20gb drive was a Fujitsu.

I was able to use Hex Workshop to search for and replace the string "HITACHI" with "XITACHI" in the DeviceDMS.dll on two different PMediaA v3.92 installations, and they will both now recognize and load files to the new 40gb drive.

Well, this hack didn't work for me.  :(
I have to add that everything was working fine; my setup is a 120 Samsung and PMM 3.92 with USB 1 cradle.

So it was OK, but slow as hell. I decided to buy a USB 2 external housing and put my hard drive into that for large updates and use the slow one for small changes.

Then started this drive ID problem.
I thought easy; just change to XASMSUNG. -> No joy.
OK, found a list of USB storage adapter ID's in the DLL. Changed one of them to match mine. Didn't work. (but it does check the number. I erased my device id USB\VID_05AB&PID_0031, then tried the original cradle and PMM started with the drive ID problem)

I could use PMM 3.7, but it doesn't support AAC and the dynamic playlist creation is not working well.
Ended up using PMM 3.7 for just coping all the MP3 files to the DMS with USB 2. Install 3.92 and use USB 1 to fix playlists and copy the missing AAC files.

Anyone has a USB 2 cradle for sale in Europe?

That's odd. I tried it with the forthcoming PhatHack Cradle and reported on it over here.
