new crack?

You guys are great! Whew, that was scary...
iiewpie was right about ExMenu0.
Using Alex's decryption code, I created a decrypted firmware
file
from e3kr111.fir. Then I hexedited it and changed
the byte at offset 121CBDh (first byte of ExMenu0) to 1,
ran it through the decrypter, and put it into my 300D.
Sure enough, a secret menu came out!
On the 3rd, there is a new item at the bottom called "Color"
when you select it, a very strange menu comes up that looks like
it's for calibration or something. It has 2 boxes and
AEB/AF/AE/ISO.
when you hit the arrow buttons some other information appears.
I'm
afraid to hit the Set button for fear of messing up some
internal
settings of the camera. Too bad it doesn't do what we wanted,
but
interesting nevertheless.

One thing that surprises me is that the firmware loader doesn't
even
compute a checksum to make sure the firmware image isn't
corrupted!
 
i've not tested what the color menu actually does yet, but i've got a modified version of the firmware that activates it. i'll send details of the byte changes when i a free minute.
 
I know of its existance but can anyone tell what it does??

Could it be for calibration purposes ? if so, could you calibrate front/back focus ?
 
They say its working well. I could not even dare to install the one with CF functions only. Any experience with the newer firmware ? I especially wonder ISO 3200 ?
do you know anythinf about new crack that activates color menu?
 
where can i download chnged firmware?
they say nothing in yahoo-group bout this
they only poin on the bytes to be changed...

ok. i've a whole bunch of different firmwares in the directory so i hope this is the right one:
