I want to connect my HDR Fox T2 via a WiFi dongle as cable would be difficult. I see the RA3070 chipset is stated as compatible, but would the 5370 work as well? It is to do with size of dongle in front slot so it doesn't protrude too much. Thanks.
UPDATE - I have managed to get hold of a very good condition Hummy locally and have it up and running. Today I tried swapping components to check what was happening and have deduced that it is the main board that is the problem. I transferred the power supply from my original Hummy to the new...
Really puzzled by this. The first time I tried they were all .txt files. Admittedly the last time it was a .zip file bit I didn't rename it so here is a zip file renamed to .txt Does that work?
Thank you - I have wondered if this was the problem but because I do not have a scope, I can't really see what is happening. May be worth a punt on an eBay purchase assuming it doesn't have the same problem!
I hope I have now attached the relevant files. I have copied the disk diagnostics...
Thank you all for your patience with my confused post! However I hope the following does not confuse any further!
I have had a chance to take a further look today. The following is happening.
I have now upgraded to, what I think is the latest CFW - 1.03.12_mod_3.13
On startup - from power on...
I think that about sums it up. Although I suspect the firmware issue is a red herring, because using the older stock version made things work, I will still try a methodical working through different versions, just to satisfy my curiosity. I will also re-try the alternative Sata HDD. But I will...
Thanks - I probably need to re-read the original articles and work through methodically again, which is what I had begun to do but was getting nowhere until I went back to 1.02.07. As mentioned above, it may well be that the firmware is a red herring but having got only one of them to work, it...
Yes I am aware of the articles which was where I started, but having established I can get the thing going using 1.02.07, I think I need to work through some of the other updates again to see if they will work. However your last comment about board switching components makes the most sense as...
I've tried HDR_FOX_T2_1.02.20_mod_3.13k, HDR_FOX_T2_1.02.32_mod_3.13, HDR_FOX_T2_1.02.32_mod_3.13d, HDR_FOX_T2_1.03.12_mod_3.13. I have also tried the system flush HDR_FOX_T2_system_flush - in fact I think I started there as I suspected a firmware issue. All of these resulted in the same boot...
I've measured the pins out from the psu to the main board and they read as follows, (all voltages to chassis) starting at the blue wire.
Blue 12.25 v
12.25 v

6.57-6.7 v (varies),

The voltages on the 4 pin connector to the HDD show yellow 12.19 v, and red a...
I am new to this forum and a not very qualified electronics DIYer (I trained in electronics 40+ years ago and then left the profession for something completely different) so please forgive me fumbling around on this! And sorry if this has been tackled before but I haven't found an exact link to...
