Hello,

i have the "idrive" Wifi HDD. This HDD is made by Power 7 Technology in China.

This is the Same Manufactorer as for the RAV Power, Lenovo F800, Medion etc.

My Problem is that the Firmware is 2.000.008 and i want to upgrade it to the Lenovo

Firmware 2.000.064. So there i must edit the Header to do something. When i try without

modifieing the header i get message "wrong File Format".

I have three Header but not the original.

Really simple question although I have'nt been able to suss it. I want to use the bridge function with a wireless network which requires a username and pass. Where can I enter a username?

TIA

Hi all. I'm a new member and have the RP-WD01 at 2.000.158 firmware. I have, downloaded as they arrived, the 2.000.004, 014, 020 and a strange 2.000.030.030 firmware.

I can share them if somebody needs them...

some question for You..

1) should I upgrade? If yes, to what firmware?

2) I too, need a way to log in to a wifi that requires username and password on a web page.. how do I do this?

3) I too, need a way to log in to a wifi that requires username and password on a web page and then click through the Terms of Service.. how?

It seems on the WD03 advanced user guide, that I found and download, that the WD03 can do that, hop also the WD01..

Thanks to who will answer

Regards
[Nexus 10 Accessories] steve8x8:
This makes me curious since the latest fw I could download from RP's site is 2.000.030 for the WD01. Can you provide some details?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] fra_dta:
Yes, what detais do You need? If I knew how to look into the firmware file I would extract more info

Great device. I got it via amazon.de for $34.

Browser access is convenient, and any external HDD / SD card can be accessed via SMB on Mac, Ubuntu, Android and iOS (Goodreader or other SMB client app), as long as it is FAT or NTFS formatted. So no separate iOS or Android app is necessary. Unfortunately, ext3/4 or HFS+ is not supported (the latter I use for Time Machine backups).

And it lacks the more secure SSH as well.

And it can be used as a Wifi repeater, when on travel you can keep the same SSID on your devices the only thing you have to do is fill in the new SSID / password of the local wifi hotspot in the device via browser access, or connect it with a network cable when wired network is available. This also disables others in e.g. a guesthouse to access your subnet.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] fra_dta:
How could You connect it to a wired network? Maybe You are talking about RP-WD02 or 03, not 01
[Nexus 10 Accessories] steve8x8:
Never mind - I found a way to unpack the whole thing, which consists of a full OS to be run just to flash the new FW.

fwfile=${1:-`ls ?.???.???.??? | tail -n1`}
lines=`head -n20 $fwfile | grep ^SKIP= | cut -d= -f2`
# extract script
head -n$(($lines-1)) $fwfile >$fwfile.sh
skip=`cat $fwfile.sh | wc -c`
# extract compressed ext2
dd if=$fwfile of=$fwfile.ext2fs.gz bs=$skip skip=1
# uncompress
gunzip $fwfile.ext2fs.gz
# unpack
mkdir -p a $fwfile.ext2tree
ssh root "cd \"`pwd`\"; mount -r $fwfile.ext2fs a; rsync -avx a/. $fwfile.ext2tree/; umount a"
rmdir a
# get rootfs
cp -p $fwfile.ext2tree/firmware/rootfs $fwfile.rootfs
unsquashfs -d $fwfile-squashfs-root $fwfile.rootfs

To unpack the rootfs one needs a special version of the unsquashfs utility that knows about LZMA compression and byte-ordering.

[Nexus 10 Accessories] steve8x8:
I'd like to ask owners of WD01 and WD03 (or similar ones, like the F800) devices for a favour:

When you run

/usr/sbin/pioctl internet 2

from the telnet commandline, which LED blinks?

Does the same command, with "3" instead of "2", turn off the blinking? Does "4" switch on something else ("5" for off)?

What if you replace "internet" with "wifi" or "status"? (Same procedures.)

Please tell me which device, and which FW revision (ideally, show me the whole content of /etc/firmware).

You may find an improved https://github.com/steve8x8/filehub-config soon!

Thanks, S
[Nexus 10 Accessories] steve8x8:
I'm currently looking into a HAME MPR-A1 (or rather, a clone of that, labelled "Aukey PB-W2", 4 MB flash, 16 MB RAM) - which is a powerbank, a network router/bridge *and*, what's more important, 3G capable (you've got to connect a 3G modem to its USB port). If the WD had the ability to drive a 3G modem, it would be the perfect device - with some more tweaks to the firmware, obviously.

OTOH, the HAME/Aukey doesn't mount a USB pendrive, which makes poking around in the firmware a bit tedious (in particular because the installed busybox is a very minimal one, and so are the kernel modules).

There is a device which is pretty close to the WD-02 (01, 03) in terms of features, and which comes with 3G capability: the UIS700HD. I'm not sure whether (a) FW for that device would work on ours, (b) one might steal driver modules and executables from over there. But it might be worth a second and third look. Anyone with a bit more spare time to spend?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] munecito:
Hello.

Here in Australia Aldi has released some WIFI/LAN Hard Drive under their Medion marquee.

As far as I can see the firmware in these drives is based on the same firmware that the Ravpower rp-WD01 and 02 run but with some slight changes.

The drives are shipped with the 2.000.024 firmware but there is a 2.000.026 firmware available in the Medion webpage.

https://www.medion.com/au/service/_lightbox/software.php?msn=50051282&prod=MEDION%20LIFE%20S89044%20%28MD%2087890%29%20AU

I have also found a sourcecode in the medion germany webpage if someone wants to have a look. Or tinker a bit with it.

http://www.medion.com/de/service/_lightbox/quellcode_details.php?did=14463

Now. What I would like to know is if you guys think these hard drives can be hacked to backup directly from an Eye-fi card, or from a Wi-fi enable camera (Canon 6d, Sony A7Rii)? Similar to the what the people from http://www.hackseagatesatellite.com/ http://www.hackwifidrive.com/ have done.

Because if it is possible I would go and buy a few more drives before they sell out.

Cheers,
[Nexus 10 Accessories] steve8x8:
The FW version number looks promising indeed, but the EXE file cannot be unpacked on my non-Windows platform :( are you sure about the correspoding RP model (which should be the WD03, I presume - but that one's still at .024)?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] munecito:
I am not sure about the corresponding number but the managing software is the same and even the android apps are interchangeable so I have a pretty big hunch they are all the same thing with slight differences.

For example the aldi unit doesn't have a card port and the female USB A port on the side, appaently doesn't interface with the computer and it is only a power output to recharge external devices.

Here are the contents of the .026 firmware if you want to have a look:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0smfVDAAZleeTBiX0dFYXlLdWc/view?usp=sharing
[Nexus 10 Accessories] steve8x8:
Thanks for providing the unpacked fw.

It doesn't seem to be an update to the latest WD03 fw because it contains a few files timestamped Oct '13 - but from a first glance everything looks very familiar. That means that the "filehub-config" tricks should work. root shell is valid, and telnet should be available.

You should be aware that this firmware probably has an "/usr/sbin/au" auto-update daemon running (the same that comes with WD02 .020 firmware but different from the WD03 ones). I'm not sure how to interpret this... IIRC the IP address can be read from /tmp
[Nexus 10 Accessories] munecito:
No worries.

One more question. Can you use any of the WD versions to broadcast any wifi while it is charging the battery? My medion is refusing to let me access the contents of the hard drive while it is connected to any usb.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] munecito:
I think it didn't like a sony xperia phone charger or being charged from the laptop while using it. But it was fine with its own charger
[Nexus 10 Accessories] munecito:
Well. Because I can't keep my hands still I managed to open the medion wifi drive to see its guts.

I'm thinking ssd now that it is open to make it vibration proof so I can use it on the go, make it faster and maybe to save a little battery while at it.

This is what I found inside.

And this is a page I found with what looks like the same unit but with a different branding

Now I wonder what are those free connections on the board? there is a free 4 pin port and a 6 pin port
[Nexus 10 Accessories] steve8x8:
Lots of Qs :)

- USB: when the device detects a USB host it may become a USB slave device (good to access local storage via USB mass storage mode). There's a way to avoid this: don't use a *data* cable, use a *charger' cable instead. My RavPower WD02 has a power switch: it's a USB device only if turned off.

- 4-pin connector: This looks like a serial port. Power (3.3V?) at one end, TxD, RxD, GND, not necessarily in this order.

- 6-pin connector: No idea, JTAG would be bigger, I suppose.

What I don't get from the image: does this one have an internal disk or not? The lower part looks like a battery, not a disk?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] munecito:
It did have a disk in it. a 2.5" Toshiba MQ01ABD100 of very recent built.

I have swapped it for an SSD so I can use it in the car and to do backups while driving/flying without fear of spinning disk getting damage due to vibrations.

It does work with the charger but it need to be its own. If I try with phone ones it won't broadcast wifi at the same time.

Pity this "enclosure" (technically it isn't an enclosure as it comes preloaded with a disk, but I opened it and replaced the disk) doesn't seem to be UASP compatible but I am not that concerned because I won't have an OS installed in it.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] amohdfazil:
I've updated the device firmware from .14 to .20 but the Blue led of WiFi is ON (not blinking) and I can't connect because I can't find the filehub on networks.

I have tried the device reset through button but nothing happen.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] -X5-:
Does anyone have the newest firmware for the WD03? I'm actually on .016 and can't find a download on the official website.

Edit:

Added the fw .020 in the attachment.

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 6P mit Tapatalk
[Nexus 10 Accessories] steve8x8:
Thank you, I didn't know this before. It's from June 2015; .024 came in August. The firmware file (unpacked) is rather large, 9047684 bytes... .024 is smaller than that.

.020 seemed to be the last available version for the WD02 device - it might be instructive to compare both .020 versions for WD02 and WD03.

Too bad RAVpower don't offer firmware downloads anymore - and I even missed the GPL sources :(

Here you have the latest from RAVPower:

[Nexus 10 Accessories] dh350nwo:
In my case I connect to the net via my Evo3d. I do not have a standard WiFi connection. So since my N10 is tethered how would the Rav disk be utilized?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] krash183:
Same thing.... The evo is a mobile hot spot with a said and password. Set it up via the Web interface or mobile app. So you would be using two hot spots to connect to each other
[Nexus 10 Accessories] wptski:
Got a reply from Rav Power. The manual is wrong, a solid green light means a full charge.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] dh350nwo:
Thanks (button hit), next question is would you use this over an OTG cable, or would you get both? I have a number of thumb drives of varying sizes, but this appears to be an all in one solution allowing thumb drive use along with portable hard drives.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] krash183:
I have both i got my otgs for a dollar a piece Vi ebay. I even got a y cable otg so i can supply power to devices that need more power than the micro usb can supply
[Nexus 10 Accessories] krash183:
Now that is how I figure it would work but I'll try it later today to make sure
[Nexus 10 Accessories] wptski:
Looks like I'll be getting mine on Friday but since it's a FedEx Smartpost which is FedEx>USPS, it could be Saturday.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Explore3:
FYI - It is on sale at Newegg.com for $40 from a third party. I think a number of similar units will come on the market shortly. However, I picked up one of these.

PS If you need warranty service, newegg is insisting on having the original box.

PPS I posted this in a couple of other threads. I have no connection with the firm. It is a good price for a very interesting product.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] wptski:
Got my RavPower today. While charging with the blinking green LED, waiting for it to go solid, it didn't! It turns off when full or seems so. Gosh, they really know their product don't they?

Did the firmware update also after first getting it set up and working. A bit of confusion after that as ES File Explorer couldn't find the device. A reboot of the N10, deleting it from WiFi and installing it again took care of the problem.

Nice little device. One issue I have but the N10 is the same way as the micro-USB is upside down if you ask me. Got a new cellphone yesterday and it's the other way. On the RavPower the USB is upside down as a flash drive with a light, puts it out of sight.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Ken401:
It goes out for me to. I had noticed they told you otherwise. At least I know mine works like others.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] mhoward223:
Does this act like a dlna media server as well.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] wptski:
Didn't install MobileFun on the N10 just used ES File Explorer. I tried the MobileFun PC app and it finds nothing at all! Might be something in the configuration??

EDIT: Just to clarify, this is a desktop PC and not a notebook/laptop with built in WiFi. Maybe that's the reason for not working?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] krash183:
A computer needs a wifi adapter to find the wifi disk. Does is connect to the Internet via wifi or a ethernet cat5 cable?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] krash183:
I believe dlna uses samba connections but don't hold me to that. Thinking more I'm not to sure......
[Nexus 10 Accessories] wptski:
It connects via a ethernet CAT5 cable but my so-called Gateway(U-verse router like device) has the WiFi. I use SAMBA all the time to the PC from my N10 but of course, it has WiFi. There may be a way by changing the setup in one or both but is it worth the trouble? There is something in the manual about connecting directly to a router also.

---------- Post added at 01:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:35 PM ----------

I have EMIT which is HTTP live streaming.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] krash183:
No the computer itself needs a wifi adapter. Yeah you can samba from the n10 to the pc cuz it's like n10>router>pc. What you're trying to do is pc>wire to router> wireless to wifi disk. You can't bridge the router and wifi disk and try to get to the other side. Makes sense?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] krash183:
Well if you set up your computer as a media server for ps3 or xbox. The ps3 connects via dlna to it but you can connect via samba to the computer from android devices
[Nexus 10 Accessories] wptski:
Yeah, no problem from Android to the RavPower or PC using SAMBA.

An interesting tidbit. My Samsung TV with WiFi which can connect to my PC doesn't show the RavPower as a source input.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] krash183:
What ssid is it connected to? Your router or can it not find the wifi disk during scanning for ssid?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] wptski:
My router. It has a Source Input list on which the PC appears. There isn't any scan function. I tried it a second time because I didn't have the RavPower ON before turning the TV ON, still nothing.

Just like now, I selected TV and it errored because my PC was in sleep mode.

Have to look into this more.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] krash183:
Yeah it has to connect to the wifi disk ssid to be able to connect via samba
[Nexus 10 Accessories] wptski:
I pulled the WiFi adapter, started the TV, checked the network which failed, powered the RavPower, checked the network and it found nothing. If you go into the RP setup and Internet. There is a Scan button, press it, nothing is found.

There is Samsung Allshare which is DLNA which requires an app for the PC and Android device. There is also a special TV setup procedure also but I've never tried Allshare.

The Samsung WiFi adapter wasn't made for PC use so there isn't any drivers but I pulled out my old XP laptop, chased drivers, chip sets, edited a inf file for a LinkSys adapter and got it to work. It finds the RavPower so the Samsung TV must block anything but a router from being seen.

Did you use the MobileFun app on your laptop test?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] wptski:
There is another option for a dual pane file manager. Total Commander with the added LAN add-on and it's FREE. I didn't know that there was a Android version of TC and I've been using TC on my PC's, CE device, etc. for years.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] krash183:
Wow that's kew... But already paid for solid explorer with the 25 dollar credit from when the nexus 7 was first released. It also has the ability to connect to cloud storage like Dropbox, box and skydrive
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Ken401:
Awesome! One of the best kept secrets!
[Nexus 10 Accessories] wptski:
I got a problem with it right now. Any file that is moved/copied from my local or N10 to the WiFi Disk can't be deleted but no problem with ES File Explorer doing that. If I go into the LAN properties and back, it works one time "only"! Very strange but I'm in contact with the Dev right now.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] krash183:
With tc or solid explorer?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] wptski:
TC and it's getting more confusing by the minute also. It seems to be all about sequence and timing.

I just copied a file from local to LAN, tried to delete and it failed. Retried every 15 seconds for one minute, it failed every time but wait one minute and it works! Go figure.....
[Nexus 10 Accessories] wptski:
Interesting, I just installed Solid Explorer and it does the same exact thing! Wait a bit and it works. Very strange.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] krash183:
Yeah some delay.... Not a big deal for me. You can speed up the process by closing the app via recent apps and swiping. Then reopening it up
[Nexus 10 Accessories] wptski:
This file operation is probably something nobody would ever do. I was just playing around when I stumbled upon it.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] wptski:
Do you happen to use McAfee Mobile Security? The Dev mentioned that virus protection might be the issue and I'm using McAfee.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] krash183:
lookout....ill try deleting it
[Nexus 10 Accessories] wptski:
I told the Dev that I had McAfee but also had a link to the RavPower and the following is his response.

These devices usually have a slow processor, so I guess that they first write the file to a RAM cache and then write it to the disk/stick. Just be patient and wait until the device is ready.

It's fast enough to play videos I've tried without any problems at all.

I tried it with an old laptop running XP and can't get it to work but it may be just something I'm doing wrong. The funny thing is that I can access my W7 desktop PC no problem on the XP laptop. MobileFun doesn't work with XP so maybe it's a OS issue or something has to be changed, somewhere? It's not something that I really need just something I just tried to see if it would work.
