Hi Andrew, I still got a problem creating speedtch-1.bin and speedtouch-2.bin. I copied everything to my /home/georges map: libatm1, firmware-extractor.tar and SpeedTouch330_firmware_3012.zip Now when I run:
unzip SpeedTouch330_firmware_3012.zip && ./firmware-extractor KQD6_3.012 in a terminal only the KQD6_3.012 and ZZZL_3.012 files are created and no speedt*.bins. I guess I must be doing something terribly wrong, but what...? I deleted the firmware zip file and KQD6_3.012 and ZZZL_3.012 files from /home/georges. I now unzipped the firmware first (under windows) and only copied the KQD6_3.012 file to /home/georges. then I ran: ./firmware-extractor KQD6_3.012 This gave the following message: bash: ./firmware-extractor: Unknown file or folder So I guess somehow the firmware- extractor is not recognized as an executable object. What to do next? Hope to hear from you soon.
