I have helped my friend to hack MSOX4000A.

[tabajaralabs]

Found it

How did I extracted the screen?
The file \secure\infiniivision\splashImage.bin is a planar BGR (not rgb, it is inverted) file with a 32 bytes header
Here it is, how I extracted the screen from a "virgin" scope:

I followed the USB-only guides in posts #2560 and #2562 on my DSOX3014T (with purchased 200MHz upgrade, no Eth jack). 

The 3000XSeriesT.7.31.2020012842_patched.ksx installed OK, but the next step to install v241_link_install.cab doesn't seem to work.  I just get error message on the scope screen: "Error: The file did not load correctly."

I tried the process twice with the same result.  I also tried a couple different link strings from this forum.
Ideas?

Well, both 2000A and 3000A scopes will be 10 years old in February 2021. Is there a successor coming?

[Bud]

If I remember correctly the password attempt always fails the first time. You may have to try twice before it'll let you in using Telnet.

I've seen this more then once in this thread, so here is the explanation for all of you:  this is a quirk of the Putty software that people often use for telnet connectivity.  It spits some garbage from the buffer first time you use it, so password entry always fails the first time. Use built-in Telnet utility in Windows and your authentication will be fine from the first try.

Edit: alternatively, if you still want to use Putty, after connecting to the scope press Enter, then proceed with entering the credentials.

I remember that question being asked many years back.

Did KS include a time bomb in the devices?

[Bud]

To a certain extent, possibly. There are digital certificates there that have expiry.

[MarkL]

I think it's pretty clear that the 3000T series is the replacement for the 3000A.  If I recall correctly, at one point the A and T even had the same price for the same combinations of channels, MSO option, and bandwidth.  Looking at it now, the T series is slightly cheaper and also has more decode and other licensable options.

The 3000A series can still be found by searching for it, but it does not appear on the main scope web page.  Amongst others, it now shows the 3000T along with the 2000A series

I'm not sure why they're continuing to sell the 3000A series.  It hasn't had any significant new features added to it for years and only a minor bug fix here and there.

To a certain extent, possibly. There are digital certificates there that have expiry.

I can only speak for the 3000A because I have one:  The purchased licenses do not expire.

[Bud]

I do not mean licences, i mean digital x509 certificates. There are a few Root ones from the Public Certificate Authorities and a few issued to Keysight , at least one for code signing.

Thank you all for the knowledge.
Another successful hacked DSO-x-2012A  using USB only . 
The trick is to have files in the main directory not in any sub folders. It fails every time when files are not in the main directory.

 
I followed these instructions from page 89  written by scribble - thank you man - much easier to have it all in one place.


Download Phillyflier's patched firmware from post #2167 on page 87
Download Luminax's license patch from post #1529 on page 62
Extract license patch, open cmd window (if using MS Windows), navigate to license patch folder and rename infiniivision.lnk to .txt
Edit infiniivision.txt and replace text in the file with Odessa's modification from post#2197 on page 88
80#infiniivisionLauncher.exe -l DIS -l MSO --perf -l BW20 -l SCPIPS -l CABLE -l VID
Save and rename file back to .lnk
Copy firmware file (rename from .ksx to .cab if current scope fireware is older than v2.41) to FAT32 formatted USB drive
Copy licence files (2x .cab files and .lnk file) to same USB drive

Now go to your scope, turn on and plug in USB drive to front USB port
Press [Utility] > File Explorer, select the firmware file (3000XSeries.02.50.2019022736_patched.cab); then, press Load File, wait for scope to load and reboot.
Check firmware has updated to v2.5, if successful continue
Press [Utility] > File Explorer, select v241_link_install.cab file; then, press Load File, wait for scope to load and reboot.

Today I received my 2002A from Ebay at 490 E.
I followed this instruction, and it worked perfectly. 5 minutes later I had a unlocked scope.
Thanks to all for the good work.

Electrolytic caps in the power supplies...?

  DSO-X 2004A  after updating  Version 2.60   port 23 for telnet is not possible. Port scanner do not find port 23 open for telnet.
  There is one port open which is 21 and if it is telnet then shows  below image:   

[PA0PBZ]

Port 21 is normally used for FTP, give it the ls command and see what happens
