Got two HD Fox T2 units to upgrade.
Both on firmware 1.02.29, both on loader L7.27, unit A Micom 7.61, unit B Micom 7.66.
On unit A:
Tried 1.03.02_mod_3.13 and failed with two different USB devices. Eventually I remembered I had problems updating mine and had to rename HD_FOX_T2_upgrade.hdf to HD_FOX_T2_UPGRADE.hdf before it would work. So I did so again and it all worked successfully.
Interestingly, Humax's instructions say it has to be called hd_fox_t2_upgrade.hdf, and that is what their file is called, so why is the CF (wrongly?) using mixed case?
On unit B:
Tried the all upper case variation without success on both USB devices. If I plug the USB stick in, it just doesn't detect it - the Data Storage item in the menus is greyed out. If I plug an SSD via SATA-USB adapter in, the Data Storage item is OK, but I still can't load firmware from it.
Haven't yet tried all lower case with the latter (job for tomorrow now), but does anyone have any ideas what to do next if it fails? I guess I could rummage for another USB stick - the ones I have readily accessible are both the same type (but have always worked eventually).
Do I guess correctly that the Micom difference is not significant?
