The Scream! and contributors, hold no responsibility if something goes wrong.
Just thought I would start a new thread so that the focus can on the NEW Home hub can be here and the older thread can remain vaild for the Earlier one.
Um, 1st comment. They...
I take it from the lack of words, that HUB version 1.5 can't be flashed?
Tried to flash and got an authorisation failure.
oh, well just have to wait and see,

Extract the standard config file from your hub, compare it to his modified one. Start with his config file and see if it works. That's what hacking is all about.
I've got a linux prompt on the homehub v1.5
Need help with squashfs to proceed.

pm or reply if you can help with the bt hh squashfs filesystem, can't create a valid one at the moment (can extract, but can't create).

Dawmat. I am wondering why on earth all went well and you managed to flash all 3 routers with the new CFE now you are getting read errors. Perhaps it's the JTAG interface or maybe the printer port settings? I don't believe either router is faulty as they all work. With regards to the CFE not retaining the Serial and the MAC addresses sadly that is the part of the CFE that had to be changed. In that block of data that contains the 3...
ms90210 Did you backed your previous CFE twice and the comparison of both backed up files was exactly the same? If that was not the case you may have an unreliable unbuffered JTAG cable and it flashed the CFE erroneously. If not, try the reflashing utility from Thomson SpeedTouch and reflash the whole firmware again. Remember there are 2 firmwares that you can try.
sorry, use this age for the 6.1.9.6 firmware http://www.inaudible.co.uk/temp/st7g/ its the one that ends with 6196.bli i think it begins with ZZNA The instructions etc are for linux so you may need gzip to unzip it but the updater and firmware are windoze compatible.
