Is it still the case that you have to renew the hack as soon as you load new firmware onto the scope?
If so, then nothing has changed in the last 5 years...

HI mate,
Not sure if you know yet, but now YOU CAN UPGRADE THE SCOPE AND HAVE ALL THE OPTIONS AND IT'S PERMANENT.
Go to the links in the first post to the Cloud and you'll find the files there and the PDF that explains it all, it's not hard
and many people have done it, You just need to know which model you have and that will determined which script you use to upgrade.

if you have 70MHz Model you use   
rigol_kg2.py

if you have 100MHz Model you use
rigol_kg2_3_000.py

we've worked out a lot of the problems and it seems like it full steam ahead now

Hey Martin,

yes, you still have to use the patch after every update.

UDPATE :   NO NOT ANYMORE
We now have a PERMANENT SOLUTION, we are not using the Dr Mefist0 Patch method, but instead
the DrMefist0 FULLY LICENSED Method,   It totally works

Initially we had some problems with the 1 script where some people who had Models that WERE NOT
MSO5072
MSO5074
were having issues and the script wasn't completing.

WE'VE FIXED THAT. there are now 2 scripts  1 for the 70MHz and 1 for the 100MHz Models  Including MSO5000BND Bundle options.

after you do this, You won't have to patch again... EVER !!!
Just upgrade as new official firmware files become available, Nothing to worry about.

That said, applying the original update following a firmware update is very straightforward; not at all a bind and keeps the MSO5000 fully featured.

Back on topic - Martin, thanks for the additional videos man, will work through them.

His question was not how easy it was.

With Rigol DS1000Z you applied the licenses and after that scope was unlocked and you didn't have to patch anything ever again, even if you loaded new firmware.
So his question was very on the topic, and he asked it because he wanted to keep up...

So answer to his question is : Yes, every time you load new firmware you need to patch up again, but process was made to be very easy, so it is not a problem. But you need to patch up every time,  it is not one time job as it was on a Z machine..

Hi Mate, Just touching base
Have you upgraded to the FULLY LICENSED METHOD YET ?
if you're still on the patch method.  Revist the URL in post 1 for the Cloud,  there is a PDF that explains everything.

I was just wondering if there was a published 'hack'/upgrade for a Rigol MSO5072 with Firmware 01.03.02.02.  I was just about to follow the guide for 01.03.00.03 and then realized - I should stop! 

Many thanks

Hi mate
Just in case you were still wondering, We've had a few advancements

1. THE UPGRADE for the MSO5000  Now works beautifully

2. Not only MSO5000 but MSO5100 and MSO5200

3. Many people have upgraded with success

4. There was only a small number of people that got an Assertion Error.
    BUT I RECENTLY FIXED THAT AS WELL.

NEW UPDATE : MSO8000 Is now also do-able and very possibly MSO7000.
        Also, 2 new scripts have been created for MSO5000 to cater for various scenario's

it's full steam ahead now.
