PowerShot SX210 IS - Porting Thread

Ahh the fun starts....

It appears to have a different key and iv then past versions.  Anyone know of any recent cameras with new key/iv that I should try?

It also appears a new set of dancing bits are in use.

Anyone could make a firmware dump? so we can start playing

Software dumping dosnt seem to work as HarpoMa said

Due to timeline maybe advances in the SD1400IS http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php/topic,5034.0.html could help
or the SD3500IS

Someone has any clue, of how to get the firmware?

I got a SX210 a few days ago as well, have either of you been able to find the LED addresses? Or do the problems HarpoMa refers to keep from being able to do that yet?

Until we find a way to get the camera to respond we are stuck.  It is my opinion that the dancing bits have changed which means we cannot get a working image to run. 

Just means we need to wait and see if anyone else gets one of the new cameras to respond....

How does one generally find out what the dancing bits need to be changed to? Just a bunch of trial/error changing of the bits until it works or is there a way to shortcut to less than just brute force?

It appears the following cameras may be similar to the SX210 based on release dates:

2010-02-08
---
SX210 IS
SD3500 IS / IXUS 210
SD1400 IS / IXUS 130
SD1300 IS / IXUS 105

2010-01-05
---
A3100 IS
A3000 IS
A495
A490

I briefly checked the chdk wiki and none appear to have dumps yet but I haven't search the forum.

If canon actually changed both diskboot and FI2 encoding simultaneously, things could get difficult. Might be stalled until a firmware update comes out for one of the affected cameras.

Another option would be to look for exploitable flaws in existing firmwares that can be triggered from something on the SD card.

There's too many combinations to brute force, given that you have to put a new DISKBOOT on the card each time.
Don't forget what the H stands for.

A495

I briefly checked the chdk wiki and none appear to have dumps yet but I haven't search the forum.

I can confirm that the A495 also is not "working".
The ver.req/vers.req info display is not working anymore on the A495.
I discovered the P-ID of this camera via the usb-id and tryd to create a PS.FI2 file with d3 or d4 keys,
but the camera does not accept this "firmware-update", shows only a error.
Also no success getting a diskboot.bin file  (led blinker software/modified udumper) running
with dancingbits encoding 1/2/3.

So i also guess that canon changed the keys&dancingbits values for the cameras released in 2010.

This could end up pretty bad as unless I missed one they haven't updated any camera since the G10 on Feb 10 2009 and generally don't seem to update cameras unless they have major problems.

Is there any other way around the issue without having to wait for a firmware update?

I've tried some brute force based on prior dancing bit "patterns".  To date no success since it takes a bit of time for each attempt.  My first subset is 250 files in size.  :(  

I've contemplated trying to find an alternate vector but I don't know where to begin really.  If it was plausable (ie someone had the method of trying) I would either connect the ARM debug pins to something or try to read the eeprom directly.  I don't know how to do either of these possibilities.

I'm wondering if one could speed up the brute force by using an eye-fi card but as I don't have one I don't know yet.  If one could change the file remotely it would greatly speed up the brute force.  After all it's only a 8 factorial.  LOL - 40k plus tries.
