Hello guys~

I'm a new comer, and I have decided to flash DD firmwares.

I just have a very simple question. If there are any MD5 for the firmwares?

How can I know my .bin and .chk is correct?

Thanks a lot!

I wish...BrainSlayer does not provide MD5 with his builds.

The Best you can do is download the file 3 times...verify the MD5 on all three downloads to verify the file downloaded correctly.

Sorry...I really wish there were MD5s also.

Laughing Yeah...This is a good idea. I think it can absolutely solve my question. Thanks a lot.

If there are any reasons the developer didn't provide MDs?

I just feel a little bit curious.

My guess is because there are SO MANY different builds, released frequently, and that they are BETA. But that is just my guess.

Eko was the only one to ever include MD5 keys....AFAIK....still...I wish they were included.
