WOO! I got it.

Well, sorta.

It's not nearly as bad as I thought it was - that was just the difference
between the the firmware data in the file the site gave Stephen and the
firmware in the file the site gave me. I don't understand why they're
difference since both remotes end up the same, but whatever - they're not
the same.

I had assumed they were the same since the results were the same and thus
had lots of diff that wasn't necessary.

All it takes is updating the first 6 bytes. If I take a file from the
website, update the first 6 bytes with the first 6 bytes of my firmware and
then use it to update my remote, it works like a charm.

That makes this pretty easy. I should have a patch whipped up shortly.
