It was successfully tested on Lekensteyn's +T650 device. + +The tool is created using reverse engineering on the [official Logitech firmware +updater][1] and a virtual, fake [Logitech Unifying Receiver device in QEMU][2]. +It may therefore not work in certain edge cases although I have tried my best to +match the behavior of the firmware updater. See also the comments in +`fw-update.c`. The custom QEMU sources are based on v2.2.0, with +v2.2.0-76-g5ac86ef being the latest version which was used for REing ("unifying: +acknowledge device when entering LTx"). + +If the DFU (Device Firmware Updater) process is generic to all Logitech devices, +then this tool could be modified to handle other devices as well. As of now +(December 2014), it contains some hard-coded details. + +Feel free to risk your device by trying this tool, it worked for me, but YMMV. + +## Building +This tool depends on an experimental ltunify library. The expected directory +layout is: + + - ltunify: https://git.lekensteyn.nl/ltunify.git, branch refactor-lib, tested + with commit 1b3247bc573314e4b05ce5bc60cf9f14c93228a5 + - ltunify/t650-dfu: this repository, tested with commit + 4cc4c75708811d8ef54edd2384b14d00b736c874 + + cd ltunify/lib + make + cd ../t650-dfu + make + +This should produce a `fw-update` binary (tested with Clang 3.5.0). + +## Usage +The command is used as follows: + + ./fw-update /dev/hidrawX device_index flash-file + +Example for my T650 device which is paired on index 2 (use `ltunify list` to +find out the index): + + ./fw-update /dev/hidraw1 2 RQM_041_001_00038.bin + +## Copyright +The `RQM_041_001_00038.bin` firmware blob is from Logitech.
