debian and proxmark3

emada · 2014-03-12 17:28:17

So I got a old proxmark3 from a buddy of mine and im trying to use it in linux but it keeps coming up as HID device. I have black listed the device via a udev rule as it says in the setup guide now I am using the root user so I should not have to worry about group membership all i need to do is remove modem manager. Is that correct? Thank you for your time.

As you already said, your proxmark is using old USB HID protocol. If you want to run latest firmware, you need to reflash it with OLD software and NEW(USB CDC) bootrom.elf and fullimage.elf.
To do this, you need to find somewhere old flasher that understands HID protocol(before SVN r672) and latest firmware that you can compile yourself.

midnitesnake · 2014-03-15 08:50:17

whats happens if you don't push the button on the proxmark?

Which svn rev. do you use to flash that bootrom?

665

svn checkout -r 665 http://proxmark3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ proxmark3

vivat · 2014-03-15 16:01:35

OK, you should do this:
sudo ./path_to_old_r665/client/flasher -b ../path_to_latest_HEAD_svn_revision/bootrom/obj/bootrom.elf
Push the button and plug pm3 to USB port. If that doesn't help, replug it again.

ideas?

vivat · 2014-03-16 15:02:56

Something is wrong with your ARM toolchain. Did you follow the instructions?

midnitesnake · 2014-03-16 15:26:02

Have you followed the instructions on the wiki (https://code.google.com/p/proxmark3/wiki/Linux) on installing the ARM toolkit?

emada · 2014-03-16 16:24:08

ok i was able to fix the toolchain thank you. i thought i needed gcc-arm-none-eabi but turns out i didnt.

emada · 2014-03-16 16:26:35

do i need a older flasher?

midnitesnake · 2014-03-16 18:26:11

you need the old flasher with the new bootrom
think i used the following last year?
svn checkout -r 623 http://proxmark3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ proxmark3-old

623 worked but i still have the HID issue here is dmesg:
[101989.456330] usb 2-2: new full-speed USB device number 47 using uhci_hcd

however when i hold the button down and plug it in i get this in dmesg:
[102139.716360] hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 2

at this point i can connect using the proxmark bin but commands never return.and after a minute it clicks and i lose connection and this is in dmesg:

i got it. needed to also load the other new images with the new flasher after the bootloader
