The folders are (most probably) alright. But even if the server is responding with a not chunked HTTP/1.1 response, every hub between the server and the client might chunk the response, because a HTTP/1.1 client is supposed to parse a chunked response. That's why v2.3.20 is only a workaround. We need the server to response with a HTTP/1.0 response to a 1.0 request, or we have to be able to parse a much more complicated 1.1 response.

+Al_Nafuur Posted April 23 Author Share Posted April 23 😞 In my experience, this is an understatement: Quote ChatGPT can make mistakes. Consider checking important information Even for such "simple" things like parsing a chunked http response in C you can't really use ChatGPT: https://chat.openai.com/share/8b50e31f-e341-4386-b9e3-7eedecb8c91b You really have to know your stuff and what to look for to get a good result from ChatGPT. In the end you will invest more time than with doing your research and your code yourself.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capellão Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 @Al_Nafuur Would it be possible to enable updating firmware versions by adding the new version "firmware.bin" within the "My ROMs" directory? This way you could update the cartridges without the need for the STM32CubeProgrammer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This way you could update the cartridges without the need for the STM32CubeProgrammer. 🤔 this look like a good idea. Some of the Brazilian PlusCart Duo users have used the static firmware update on the temporary message page. For devices that are not on the firmware beta tester group this will result in flashing the latest (v2.3.17) PlusCart firmware. By doing this these users have lost their SD-Card support. Uploading and flashing the PlusCart Duo firmware via their "My ROMs" folder would be an easy way to get back the SD-Card support. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I flashed my plus cart with 2.3.18 and it works well with the non-elf banking schemes. The elf based ones are coming back with an error. I think it may download a little different than the other schemes and could require a similar workaround too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have just uploaded a new beta firmware (v2.3.21). This version should fix the loading of file lists greater than 2 pages. @MarcoJ, @ZackAttack @Prizrak and all other beta testers. If you have extra files and folders apart from the "My ROMs" folder in your root directory, then the firmware update will most likely fail. You will have to move the files to your "My ROMs" folder or disconnect (toggle status to not confirmed) your PlusCart from your PlusStore account temporarily for the update to work. https://plusstore.firmaplus.de/index.php/apps/pluscart/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm presuming only PlusCarts post 2.3.18 will work like this? I have one back at 2.3.15 which won't update even with the Status toggled to "No". Will I need to USB upgrade that one first?

With v2.3.15 you should get the "PlusStore Down" message with the update option. I can see in the logs that your PlusCart is requesting all parts of the firmware, but it doesn't come back with v2.3.21 then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But on 2.3.18 I don't see an option to upgrade to newer versions. I am considering removing all the files off my main page and place them in "my roms" instead, but this will break many share folders.

The v2.3.18 you are using is PlusStore Nr. #1286 and was not in the beta test group. I have just added it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, that gave the ability to download the update. Initially I tried it with the PlusCart being connected to the PlusStore, and it failed as expected. I then toggled to make it not connected and rebooted the pluscart. However, when downloading the wifi update this time, it also failed.
