Plug your Didj in and then go to Disk Management, depending on what version of Windows it should be something like:Īdministrative Tools > Computer Management > Disk Management The letter you pick doesn't matter, as long as it doesn't conflict with something else. You'll need to assign the Didj's USB drive a letter as LFConnect will have assigned it a directory mount point instead. You many want to look into: Disabling LFConnect Autostart Didj Otherwise these commandsĮxtract archive or clone git repo to a location of your choice.

If not, when it prompts you for a driver, use the Windows update service.įor mounting and creating images, you might try cygwin with mtd_utils or whatĮver is available for deaing with ubi/jffs2 files.

If LFConnect is installed, or previously was, this is already installed.

Mtd_utils, For mounting/creating JFFS2 and UBI images.įor LeapPad2 and GS, a patch is required for the larger NAND units. Included for Windows, common on many Linux distrosĬheck your distro, these are probably standard includes. Windows requires pyreadline be installed or run. Python 2.6/2.7 - No special modules needed for Linux. Although Surgeon, which is a recovery image for everything but Didj, seems to remain Networking based.

v1, prior to this update, used USB Networking, v2 uses a USB Mass Storage interface. Specific to Explorer and LeapPad1 is v1 or v2, Around November of 2012 LeapFrog issued an updated firmware that drastically changed how the devices interacted with the host computer. 'The Rest' in this document will here on be in regards to what ever devices that haven't been specifically detailled in that particular section. LeapPad2 references the second generation tablet and GS to the second gen handheld. Naming, Explorer is used universally to describe the first hand held device after the Didj, and LeapPad1, for the first tablet based device. From my understanding, this should work fine on the newer devices, as the process is the same. Support, this has been tested on an Explorer and LeapPad1, with parts of the code tested on a LeapPad2. Updating your firmware or in anyway messing with your device's Operating System files can cause a broken device, enter at your own risk. Plus a variety of other handy development tools. It allows file navigation on the device, uploading and downloading files, along with updating firmware. Is a Python 2.6/2.7 based Open Source version of LeapFrog Connect.

There seems to be a lot of issue with newer Linux distributions, its known to work on Debian 7, but there seems to have been some changes made, that break core functionality in other distros.Īs of now, MaI am finished with the project, as other things have come up and I can't keep up with the changes.
