I'm considering using the patched firmware to get my scope options licensed as my scope still won't accept any license keys anymore... Am I correct in saying that the patched firmware is actually a fw for the non-A version, patched to run on the A version, accepting the non-A licenses generated by riglol? will the licenses stay on the scope after reverting back to the original 02.01.00.03 firmware? Are there any downsides to using this approach compared to using the rigup way? |

Anyways, the SOLE purpose of the patched firmware is to extract the private key on a DS2072A. Once you have the priv key, you can restore everything to factory original by restoring original firmware. After that you have your paws on the private key, plonk that into your favorite keygen to generate license keys. Those license keys should then be viable for a DS2072A with original firmware and also viable for a DS2072A with patched firmware. Again, once you have the private key for your particular scope you can use rigol original firmware. And the big-ass disclaimer is that I don't own a DS2072A, but try more or less to keep up with this thread. :P |

I was referring to the firmware on gotroot.ca/rigol by the name of "(patched)", not the license dump one.. |

The second one is used to circumvent the need for A-version keys on that firmware version only. The former is obviously better since the keys will work on official firmware as well, whereas it seems to me that the latter needs someone to patch every new firmware version. |

Hi there, I,m recently discovered this impresive forum, and it is one of the best forums about electronics I even seen, so congratulations for your job. My post is because I, thinking about to buy a Rigol DS1074Z, and my question is if the keygen fror DS2000 could be valid also for this DSO, or if there is someone who is working on it. Thanks Icaro |
