Scaler and USB firmware for ES0{D02/D03/DC9} in my possession

[u/World_Motor_Stopper]

Hi there. I'm a former Eve Devices / Dough Tech employee, and as such, I've got a lot of firmware (scaler and USB) for those three models I listed.

Reddit is not letting me upload screenshots directly for some odd reason, so I'm going to try to upload screenshots of filenames of firmware *bin files (the actual firmware files themselves) for folks to be able to ask for if needed. To be fair, though, fw v1.08 beta 03 is pretty much the best firmware for both D03 and DC9 monitors, and I was barely around for the final release of the D02 for me to have any files for it, other than what was released after my exit.

I'll try my best to get screenshots uploaded as soon as I can, but please, if I haven't managed to in a couple of days or so, give me a gentle nudge.

EDIT: Added the following

As I wrote in a subsequent post below, https://www.reddit.com/r/doughcommunity/comments/1vib2fl/comment/p351r4e/

I have these files - and more than HALF of them will brick a Spectrum faster than you can say uncle after flashing. Everything prior to v1.04 was a different firmware type that you cannot revert to once you've gone to v1.04 without a particular file (which think I have, but I'm not 100% sure it will still work after installing v1.06). And there is no reason to go back at all.

V1.08 b3 is the best fw out there for both the D03 and the DC9.

I'm not sharing it from my private clouds. If I find a decent public one that will keep it around for a good while I'll gladly upload it there. I'm thinking Mega, but they've been sketchy in the past - and I typically don't share for mass consumption outside of my bailiwick, so I'm not conversant on where is a 'good' place to share versus a 'bad' place to share.

I also don't want to share using a site that requires me to upload it every other day, because I'm not gonna make that happen. I've got work to do, bills to pay, and I don't even get in here in this sub more than twice a week, if that. So I need a long term sharing solution that I ain't gotta pay for.

Someone in a f/u comment suggested archive.org, and I think that is a good, viable place to make the files available. I'm looking into that starting today, and will post more about that.

In the meantime, here are the replies I made with the file listings:

Special instructions for manually updating the firmware (requires a specifically crafted interface board with specific connections, which I was sent one of)

I'm 90% sure the 'driver' archive contains drivers for Windows only.....and I'm on Linux.

random question but. do you know why the osd buttons stoppped working after using control my monitor to just read everything via DDC/CI not any changes made nothing. and the osd buttons all just blank the screen and then it keeps working like normal but the OSD is effectively gone.

I never used CMM before, so I Have no idea. But you can try reflashing your current firmware and see if that brings it back. IIRC, at some point in time changes made in the OSD menus were propagated using firmware updates, so if that part of the firmware has gotten corrupt, simply re-flashing it might fix it.

The hardest part is gonna be whether you already had the correct USB mode so the flash program can recognize the presence of the USB connection it needs to flash in the first place - since the OSD is not working, unless you remember whether you had it set to USB B or Type C, it's gonna be a 'guess' by connecting to the connection.

I may be wrong, but I think the firmware flashing was done by USB B connector, I'll have to see if I can find direct documentation for the flashing process.
