There was more but I lost them.

Hi,
I have purchased modified E4 and it is great, so much better than my seek thermal xr or standard version. It would be perfect if it does not reset every few power ups with message that device has unsupported software for personal learning. Is there any way to make this stop appearing? It take longer to boot when it happen and reset all the settings too.
Cheers

You had a nerve to buy a camera that clearly said was not for resell?
Longer boot and settings reset have nothing to do with the modification. It seems you describing the normal camera behaviour when it goes to Sleep vs Power Off. Short press on the power button puts camera to Sleep, and it wakes up fast (this is wake up, not boot). If the camera stays in Sleep for several hours it will power itself down, and next press of the power button will cause it to boot. Also long press on the power button (~6sec) will power the camera off (not Sleep). Some settings like camera mode may reset during boot but not all as you say. If hou have settings like time/date or C/F reset you may have a problem with your camera ( modification has nothing to do with that)

Hi peeps. I aquired a second hand E4 with 2.11.0 firmware and of course one reason to get that exact model, was to hack it.
I looked around, and saw that first post by mike refers me to this post regarding how to go about it:
https://www.eevblog.com/forum/thermal-imaging/flir-e4-thermal-imaging-camera-teardown/msg921880/#msg921880I downloaded the FLIR_E4_2.11.0_hack.zip from 2lps and followed the guide on
fubar.grI tried doing the hack on an old laptop with a clean install of Windows XP SP3 (32 Bit)
Enabling RNDIS went perfect, and I did a full backup of it's filesystem with Filezilla afterwards.
Trying to apply the FLIRreshack fails, though
= CONNECT TO FTP
= CREATING BACKUP DIR backup-20180310203728
= RETR /FlashBFS/system/common_dll.dll
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "apply.py", line 90, in <module>
assert found, "UNKNOWN %s: digest/len is %s" % (name, h)
AssertionError: UNKNOWN common_dll.dll: digest/len is a852f8b2c161b925545204b18f
8622c446ff0a024ed4fd76ef2953283a38a99b
As the camera is second hand i don't know about it's "upgrade-history". It did came with Calibration certificate stating
March 10, 2014, so it's quite an old model i have.
Anyone here that can kick me in the right direction on how to approach this?
Thanks in advance!

If you can provide the hardware version details from the camera information page, it will help us determine which firmware your camera shipped with. Someone may have installed 2.11 as part of a failed hack attempt. We have seen this before and such can cause issues with applying an automated upgrade.

Hello. I have a flir e6 upgraded camera and I lost the original file and I would like to make firmware 3.9 to apply the bud upgrade (medical pallets, time lapse, etc.) The installed FW is 1.22.0. Can anyone help with the original backup?

Zapro,
I have checked on your camera.
It was calibrated on 11 March 2014 and contained Firmware 1.22 at the time of calibration. Your camera should be upgradable using the standard firmware 1.22 process.
Kind Regards
Fraser

Thanks for replying. The camera is already upgraded (2014 using TIConfig) but I want to install Bud upgrade.I read that I should install the original software (which I do not have), upgrade to 3.12, downgrade to 3.9 and I just upgrade Bud. If I upgrade Bud's to the already upgraded camera, are not I likely to block it?

Misu,
Sorry I was replying to a previous question in this thread from Zapro regarding difficulty in upgrading a camera.
With your camera I am sadly unable to comment as upgrading it to firmware 3.9 is not something I am familiar with.

Hi again.
I installed a fresh version of Windows 7 32bit on a laptop today- trying windows 7 this time, because maybe there was something awry with that XP ...
I followed the guide over at Fubar.gr and used the FLIR_E4_2.11.0_hack.7z pack here from EEVBLOG, and everything goes to plan (Enabling RNDIS, Backing up all data with Filezilla)
But, progress fails at "Flirreshack" once again.
= CONNECT TO FTP
= CREATING BACKUP DIR backup-20180322212511
= RETR /FlashBFS/system/common_dll.dll
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "apply.py", line 90, in <module>
assert found, "UNKNOWN %s: digest/len is %s" % (name, h)
AssertionError: UNKNOWN common_dll.dll: digest/len is a852f8b2c161b925545204b18f
8622c446ff0a024ed4fd76ef2953283a38a99b
Byte-for-byte, it's the exact same error as i got on the XP-machine.
As i'm no expert on Python, nor ever coded any of it, i have no idea of where to go look.
Now what? Anything simple i may have overlooked?
Thanks,
Per.

Hi,
I have applied the resolution and menu hack from Fubar:s guide about a year ago and as I connected the camera to my pc after a long time I noticed Flir Tools was suggesting an update which I didn't make but was wondering if there is a newer hacked version after the 26 Dec 2016 update that Mike has posted on the first page.
Thanks Oscar

Yes it can be hacked. Look at the first post in this long thread for the required links. Firmware 2.1 has issues so I recommend that you upgrade it to firmware 2.3, but no higher version, then hack it as a FW2.3 camera. Someone on here can hopefully provide the version 2.3 firmware file, as FLIR no longer offer it.

Can I use FLIRInstallNet.exe to run the Z3comb_v2.3.0.fif?
Because eFLIRInstall.exe will not run on windows 7 32 bit.
I'm trying downgrade 2.11.0 to 2.3.0 because the dll’s are different for the 2.11 hack.
