Eos 400d ( Rebel XTI )

0xAF

Hi guys/gals, its been some time since i were around, and the NightlyBuilds (NB) became broken somehow.
I've upgraded the GCC to the latest version 4.6.0, and it seems to be working nicely now.
Sorry for the last days with broken NB, I hope that not so much ppl get affected by this (more than 100 downloads though)

So, now we have NB again, sorry for the late response on this.
Have a nice shooting with 400Plus 😉

Regular canon menu Beep -> On

I was thinking about sound when using custom time delay (with hack).

Anyone?

Anyone?

Right now, you can't do that.

iDentist

So, you're saying it will be possible in the future?

No; I'm just saying that it looks interesting and doable, so I will probably try to do it in a near future; but I cannot promise anything.

That would be very nice and useful.

Thanks in advance. 😀

And thanks also to everybody else who helps: that version, for example, contains a bugfix thanks to the detailed report someone posted. Oh, and lets all act as if 20111111-2 just never never existed, please? (I left some stupid testing code inside).

Hello,

I've just downloaded the latest build (20111111-3) and while the blue light flashes on boot (I think I am getting two flashes if that means anything, one short and one slightly longer), the hack does not appear to be active (pressing DP or DISP in the menu does not reveal the usual hack menus). I've tried 20111111-2 but that didn't work either. Dropping back to 20110904-1 works and previous to that I was using one from June I seem to recall. Does anyone know why it isn't working? If there's anything I can do to assist please let me know.

Thanks for all your hard work 😀

Please, have a look to the user guide: all the menus (there are several menus now) are where the shortcuts used to be; just press DP from the MAIN screen (not the MENU) to get to them.

Thank you very much, I can't actually believe I missed that! I was sure I'd re-read the instructions but somehow I clearly missed that bit. You're spot on, it works a treat. Now to re-read the rest of the user guide!

Thanks and sorry for being so rubbish!

Ok, so let's suppose that this is related to the FACTORY MENU, just suppose it; to activate that menu, or current code does:
[code]
EnterFactoryMode();
SleepTask(25);
ExitFactoryMode();
[/code]

This is: we go into FACTORY MODE (whatever that is) and then exit back. This means there is a FACTORY MODE, which we do not normally "see" as it is deactivated immediately. Perhaps your camera got somehow stuck into FACTORY MODE, and that is why it is acting that way.

But then, activating the FACTORY MENU from 400plus should revert back to the normal mode, I guess. I would try to install 400plus in an empty card (no MCTEST.BIN file, obviously) and activate the FACTORY MENU (just MENU + DP + DP). Then switch off, change to a fresh card, an try again with the computer.

just my two cents.

Hey eduperez

Well, I've got the same problem as described by Knatterman above. I reinstalled the 400plus hack again, but factory menu is present from the beginning, so going into the menu and pressing DP DP does nothing.
Did I misunderstand something there? I can't make the factory menu go away and I can't connect my camera to my pc anymore, help please?

Menus have changed in the latest release, please have a look to the user guide. Anyway, all entries related to factory mode are hidden now, so you'll need to revert to a previous release (see here: http://code.google.com/p/400plus/downloads/list?can=2&q=Release+Type%3DExecutable) to get out of the factory mode.

Hope this helps.

Why does my camera keep thinking the CF has less space than it does. It says I can take 416 pictures on a 16g card and thinks 10gb is full. Deleting the DCIM folder fixed the count before but today it did not.

*I manually had to make a 356CANON folder, it was creating 355CANON. Still weird it ties used space to folder name.

I've got a problem with my 400D.
My 400D was working fine with 400plus firmware. Everything was fine. But it suddenly broke.
The camera hangs (sometimes with white screen with dots, sometimes with black) when I press Print from "Home" screen, but AutoISO, Spot focus still works, when I press Print in standart ISO and focus selection screens. The camera blinks blue light on startup and then blue light fires until camera fully start.
Reinstalling of 1.1.1 firmware, testfir.fir, formating CF... nothing helps 🙁
Any ideas? :'(

Looks like 400plus is initializing properly, but fails to display the menus; and the menus only contain the literals and the settings. Since you formated the card, we can discard an error on the settings' file; so this smells like a problem with the literals.

First thing I would try is to delete the "languages.ini" file from the card, set the camera to "English", and see what happens. If that works, then I would guess the "languages.ini" file is somehow corrupted; 400plus is quite sensitive about that file, did you edit it yourself? otherwise, could you please try to download and copy it again? Perhaps even the original is buggy, what language are you using?

Hope this helps.

Set to English, deleted languages.ini. The same thing 🙁
Could something corrupt in the camera? Something went wrong with VxWorks?
I tried two different CFs.
And the main thing - it worked about two weeks when I just installed 400plus.

Update: I could edit "settings" file in Hiew hex-editor and set debug_on_poweron and logfile_mode options on. Here is my logfile: http://pastebin.com/DLbbWVEF
First record: I turn the camera on, swithed ISO by Jump button and turn it off.
Second record (unfinished): turn the camera on and and press Print button.
