Changelog

4.2 2024/07/08

• Systemwipe message has been edited to convey a bigger sense of danger when using the wipe script.
• Generate save index (#91, #96)
  • This fixes the black screen issue.
• Keep the aging save (and index it) (#97, #99).
  • This fixes battery issues after a system wipe.
  • On a lite system, this would have previously caused the battery to charge to unsafe levels. If you have previously ran the systemwipe script on a lite, you cannot run this script again to fix this.

4.1.1 2023/10/11

• This is actually just v4.1.0-b1, with 2 changes.
  • @bleck9999 added that the power and volume buttons can always be used as up/down/a.
    • The keyboard is also now fixed with just power/volume controls.
• The firmwaredump script no longer automatically tries to read the firmware.

4.1.0-b1 2023/07/29

• Upgrade BDK to Lockpick-RCM 1.19.10.
• New keydump strategy, hopefully mitigating pkg1 hotfixes.
• Thanks a lot to @JeffVi for helping me port the Lockpick_RCM BDK to TegraExplorer!
• Thanks a lot to @lucasaf04 for testing this on an oled console for me.

v4.0.1-hotfix4 2023/02/22

• Hotfix for key dumping on firmware 16.0.0, brought to you by @FlyingBananaTree (again).
• Edit: yes this also works on 16.0.2.

v4.0.1-hotfix3 2022/10/12

• Hotfix for key dumping on firmware 15.0.0, brought to you by @FlyingBananaTree.
• Edit: Yes this also works on 15.0.1.

v4.0.1-hotfix2 2022/03/23

• This is a hotfix to support fw 14.0.0, added by @dezem. Thanks.

v4.0.1-hotfix 2022/01/24

• This is a hotfix of TE 4.0.1 that contains the new PKG1 of 13.2.1. I'm still working on a proper release.

v4.0.1 2021/09/16

• Guess i lied a few releases back and i do still have to update it sometimes. Also fixes #51.
• (Edit: yes this also supports 13.1.0 and 13.2.0.)

v4.0.0 2021/08/02

• This release implements the 3rd iteration of TegraScript. The big new features are save management and members. See the docs for all the juicy details. TegraScript v2 scripts are not compatible.

Changes:

• TegraScript v3.
• Embedded scripts.
• The firmware dump script has been replaced by an embedded script, which also shows the actual firmware version now.
• A System wipe (factory reset) script is also embedded into TegraExplorer now.
• Scripts put in sd:/TegraExplorer/scripts now show up in the main menu.
• Compiling with the SCRIPT_ONLY define will allow you to embed more scripts due to more space.
• Probably more that i forgot.
• This release wouldn't have been possible without the help of @bleck9999 and @maddiethecafebabe. Big thanks to them.

Fill changelog can be found here.
