Title: Not possible to completely uninstall magic lantern from 5D Mark III?
Post by: Mei Lewis on May 28, 2013, 03:52:10 PM
I think it's not possible, but would like to know for sure either way.

I definitely think anyone considering installing Magic Lantern for the first time should be told if there's no way to do a complete uninstall.

---------------------

I've been trying for several days now to remove all traces of the RAW video version of Magic Lantern from my 5D Mark III.
It's easy to delete the ML files from any given CF card, and straightforward to use EOScard to stop a CF card being bootable, but I can find no way to disable the bootflag in the camera.

I've searched these forums pretty thoroughly and spoken to a few people on here, but AFAIK no one knows how to disable the bootflag on the MKIII, so no one knows how to uninstall ML fully.

This thread "HOW ML START (or why it doesn't boot topic) & Restore Camera Settings"
http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=2522.0 (http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=2522.0)
explains how ML and the bootflag works in terms of install.

It gives a method to uninstall ML:
1. Start the firmware update procedure (with battery full, no accessory, M mode...) from canon menu and wait the green text.
2. change mode on the dial and wait the white text.
3. Restart camera, clear settings and Custom Func. and format card, low level (NOTE: you will lose also your pics of course).

But that method doesn't work on the MKIII as far as I can tell, because in point (1) it never gets to the point where there's green text on a black screen.
(http://wiki.magiclantern.fm/_media/success.png)

The wiki page gives no more help, because I think it's referring to the same method:
http://wiki.magiclantern.fm/faq#how_do_i_uninstall_it (http://wiki.magiclantern.fm/faq#how_do_i_uninstall_it)



a1ex suggests disabling the bootflag on a 60d on this thread http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=5594.0 (http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=5594.0)

Mikkel S. says on this thread http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=3852.0 (http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=3852.0)
Quote"I put the 1.1.3 firmware from Canon (5D300113.FIR) on a blank card and turned on the camera."
but he's not sure if that really disabled the bootflag or not and it definitely doesn't for me.


I've now tried every combination of ML, ML+Canon and just canon .fir files on bootable and non-bootable cards, but none of them get me to the green text on black screen that I think is required to disable the bootflag.


-------------------


I've used ML on my 5D2 (two of them) for several years, and I've been using the alpha Mk3 software for many months, without any problems.

My preffered method with the MK3 is to run the ML Alpha from the SD slot, using the CF slot to store pictures and movies.
I can leave the 5D2 ML files on all my CF cards, and this way can share CF cards between cameras. With the bootflag permanently enable in my mk3 that no longer works.

I also have an Eye-Fi card, and the ML wiki makes me think this now won't work reliably.

Can't you just update to firmware 1.21 and ML is no longer there?  Or should the title be "not possible to reverse the bootflag option"?

Post by: scrax on May 28, 2013, 06:44:18 PM
How did you enabled the boot flag first?
I suppose there is a fir for that, have you tried to run it twice? I suppose that second time it will toggle bootflag off.
maybe Alex knows better

The title is "completely un-install" because that's what I want to be able to do. The bit that's not possible is is turning the bootflag off, as far as I can tell.

There's a .fir file on the card that I used to install/run magic lantern. That's the firmware it's running right?
And I run it by doing  a firmware update?

Doesn't do anything, never get to the green on black screen.

Same for me. On the 5d3 there are no green instructions after ML firmware update that I normally see on the 5d2 and 550d.

I just assumed this was because the 5d3 version we have all been using didn't follow the typical stable builds technique for installation etc.

I think in one of the earlier posts (10/5/2013 or so) it mentioned flashing the stable 5d2 build of the time, then merging with the .fir, ml, autoexec files from a 5d3 mod that Lourenco had posted.

I'm sorry, but that is about the best I can recall regarding my initial install.

The forums have become quite full of very similar threads that lack clear "camera specific" titles, particularly the 5d2 and 5d3 threads. It's highly possible that readers are misinterpreting some of the instructions.

Ok , from what i can understand using the alpha should not enable the bootflag, you load ML manually with the firmware update menu and ML is not .bin it's .fir (signed)
Loading the fir that way will not need the bootflag enabled.

but there are some .fir for developers that will enable the bootflag, are you sure you didn't load them also?

That's correct, the green screen install procedure is only for 2.3 release and the camera it supports. Alpha have different way based on current port status.
Keep in mind that to load a .fir from the firmware update menu bootflag isn't needed but the fir must be signed right.

If mk3 is hanging with a card from mk2+ML the bootflag is probably on

what happen with a bootable card without ML on it?
Title: Re: Not possible to completely uninstall magic lantern from 5D Mark III?
Post by: Levinson on May 29, 2013, 02:06:10 PM
Thanks Scrax & Renato.

To the best of my memory, some info in one of Lourenco's threads stated that the card must be boot enabled, the most recent version of ML for 5d2 copied onto it, then some files replaced with 5d3 specific files.

I have been replacing files with the newer build files ever since.

Would the white ML text that appears upon turning the camera on reveal any clues?
Title: Re: Not possible to completely uninstall magic lantern from 5D Mark III?
Post by: Levinson on May 29, 2013, 02:10:06 PM
I've just removed my SD that has the ML files on it, and simply left my formatted CF card in there, and all appears to be functioning as a Canon firmware without any trace of ML, including the firmware name - is it safe to say there was never any boot flag enabled?

In the past, on the 5d2, if I simply formatted the card, the camera appeared to function typically canon, but would have a slight delay (about 1 second) when waking up after it went into power save (sleep), while normally it would wake instantly upon a button press. A proper deactivation cured the delay. Would it be that the camera was searching for files before it woke?

Is a bootable memory card enough to have ML find it's files automatically upon boot? I thought the boot flag would have been necessary.

My 5d3 has been loading ML automatically upon boot.

Thanks for your help guys :) It hasn't been a problem for me yet anyway as I've been happy with ML functionality.

Post by: scrax on May 29, 2013, 05:15:08 PM
if you make your formatted card bootable with EOSboot for example and camera get stuck you have the bootflag on, if it loads with a formatted card doesn't mean that the bootflag is off.

With a bootable card and no .bin on it camera will hang with bootflag ON or load as usual with bootflag OFF
Title: Re: Not possible to completely uninstall magic lantern from 5D Mark III?
Post by: Levinson on May 29, 2013, 11:32:15 PM
Sorry Scrax, I don't quite follow.

Do you mean that a formatted card, made bootable using Eoscard, with no ML files present, should make the camera lock up, or at least not function correctly?

That is how my camera behaves - so I'm guessing there is a boot flag on in my camera.

So, I guess the trick is still..... how to disable it?

There's no problem with the camera.

The only 'symptom' it has is the bootflag is enabled and it seems to be impossible to turn it off. But I don't think it's unique to my camera because as far as I can tell no one else has managed to turn off the bootflag once enabled on their 5d3 either.

I can't turn off the bootflag because to do so it seems I need to get to the green on black screen - which I can't do.

Yes, you understood right, I think too that you have the bootflag on, to turn it off you need a fir for that but I don't know if there is one yet.

I've been using the ordinary Alpha, versions 3 I think, for several months, since the time it came out, and that has always work as you're describing - it doesn't enable bootflag and every time I wanted to use it I had to go through the firmware update procedure.

I know it doesn't enable the bootflag because throughout that time I was using CF cards interchangeably between my 5d2 and my mark 3, and the CF cards all had 5d2 Magic Lantern on. As the MK3 bootflag was not set that was never an issue. I rar 5d3ML alpha from SD when needed.

That changed when I tried the RAW enabled version.
I followed the EOS HAD instructions from here:
http://www.eoshd.com/content/10352/easier-5d-mark-iii-raw-guide-in-4-steps
which directed me to download magic lantern from here:
http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=5413.0
That's the nightly builds thread.

The actual zip I used was "Magic Lantern May 19 e91e2bc.zip" but I imagine the other nightly builds behave the same way, right?

If I'm following how this is all working I think you're right there scrax. I can't find a method or a .fir that will turn the bootflag off.

So if I were to just do a regular reformat of the CF card with the 5D3 RAW firmware on it does that mean ML is still on the camera? Just wanted to ask because before installing ML RAW on my 5D3 I forgot to format it in EXFAT. Because of it I cannot record more than 4GB in the RAW_REC MODULE. If I were to format the CF card in EXFAT to enable more than 4GB recording in RAW, would I have to do anything different in installing ML RAW again in that card? Any help is great.

If you want to re-format the card then that's fine. Just make sure you make the card bootable before you copy the ML files to the card otherwise it ML won't load. You should do the same for any other cards you want to use with ML. Formatting a card does not affect or remover the bootflag on the camera. To do this you have to run the original ML fir that you used to install it. When you do that you will see the same "success" screen you saw when you first set the bootflag but you will notice at the bottom instructions on removing it (by changing to either Av or Tv etc while the success screen is showing).

I'm pretty sure that piece of information is NOT correct. The whole point of this thread is that what you suggest DOES NOT WORK for the 5d3.

For anyone interested it is enough to format in EXFAT the card on which you are recording. Then if you have ML in a second card (SD or CF) you have not to format it.  ::)

I'm having this bootflag issue, too. I had the official Alpha 3 running fine. When I tried to install a nightly build to get the RAW module working, things went awry. When I turn it on, it soon announces the loading of the bootflag along with a smile. The firmware reads as 1.1.3-ml-v2.3.NEXT. When I hit the Trash button, no Magic Lantern menus come up.

I wouldn't mine not being able to uninstall the flag, if Magic Lantern was working, but it's not.

Anyone out there who has this bootflag issue, but has Magic Lantern working?


UPDATE: I kept fiddling (worried about bricking camera with each step), but finally got everything working.
Steps I took:
1) I deleted all the ML files from the SD card. and replaced them with the official 5diii alpha build files.
2) I started up the 5diii with the Alpha 3 on the SD card. The Alpha 3 ML started working again on the 5diii.
3) Then I copied Canon firmware 1.1.3 onto the SD card. I was able to 'update' the 5diii firmware to 1.1.3. (i don't remember every step in that or if there were any issues).
4) then i carefully followed the guide at planet5D -- http://www.cinema5d.com/news/?p=17898 (http://www.cinema5d.com/news/?p=17898)
5) and it worked. the bootflag issue disappeared!

CONCLUSION: I think tried to simply update the Alpha 3 to the latest build. Maybe this is what's been happening to others. Good luck!!

My solution to uninstall ML & remove bootFlag on 5DIII
I try the ML RAW Video on my friend's 5DIII,it works well,and then I should revert it.
Here is my method(I use CF card only, SD card not used):
1.With a Magic Lantern card, launch the V1.2.1 Canon Firmware Update process and follow the instructions on-screen, let the update complete;
2.Reboot Camera, Format CF card;
3.With a Formatted CF, launch the V1.1.3 Canon Firmware Update process and follow the instructions on-screen, let the update complete;
4.Now the bootFlag is removed.

The Documentation says "Re-installing Canon firmware will not remove Magic Lantern", but it works on my 5DIII. ???
And may you can launch the V1.1.3 Canon Firmware Update process with a ML card directly!But I have not try this, after all, flash the Firmware is a dangerous operation, these things already scare me a lot! :o

Thanks Berlinchan, but that doesn't seem to work.

I just tried your method of updating and then downgrading the canon firmware and it didn't work. The boot flag is definitely still set on my camera!

I had the same issue. I had Magic Lantern Alpha 1 (or 2?) installed on the SD card of my 5D3. But I didn't install Magic Lantern (I totally forgot that I had it installed already). I did a format in the camera of the SD card. I just applied the EOScard.exe bootflag and dropped the Magic Lantern latest build from Lourenco on it. It bootted the camera and the smiley appeared. But after that, nothing happened after pushing the trash button. The firmware indicated the correct Magic Lantern one. But going to the firmware update and trying to push the Set button (to enter the firmware menu) didn't function. Somehow the Set button (or middle push button of the joystick) didn't function and I got scared (I wasn't able to format the card either). Removing the SD card would cause the camera to ask for a card with firmware on it...

Thanks to lostfeliz I did kind of the same.

I formatted my SD card on my computer. I downloaded the old Alpha version, and put it on the SD card. I started the camera and Magic Lantern Alpha 1 was installed and functional, phew!
But the bootflag was still there. So now I uninstalled Magic Lantern the "correct way" from the Firmware update menu. I removed the card. Trying to get rid of the bootflag, I put another (non bootable aka normal) SD card in it. I formatted it in camera. I put it on my computer and put the normal 1.1.3 Canon firmware on it. Put it in the camera, and run the firmware update (it recognized it). After that, the camera was fully functional, but without Magic Lantern of course. I didn't see the bootflag smiley anymore. Nice!

However, I kind of felt that starting the camera was slower after that. And, also when the camera was in standby mode, it was annoyingly slower to come back from standby. It takes around 1,5 - 2 seconds. That was quicker before. So I'm still not sure if the bootflag is totally gone...

From here, I wanted to see if I could manage to get the SD card with Magic lantern Alpha 1 working, and yes without problems (and not bootable). After that I wanted to see if ML with a latest build was working, but without the bootable SD card. And there is where I got stuck again. Firmware update works, but hitting the trash button did not show the ML menu.

So no raw video for me yet... And that's a pity! By the way, I have got raw video working on my 5D2... So I'm familiar with it...

Hi Balb0wa,

How long is the startup time of the camera now with ML?  I'd really like to try out the raw histogram in photo (non-live view) mode but not being able to disable the boot flag and restore the camera to its previous state is holding me back.

Thanks,

Ron

dont try it,  seriously , the camera is dead slow to boot up , with the bootflag on, i wish i had never touched it.

i dont thing the magic guys are bothered about it, and you get shot down on here if you mention it.

before pressing the shutter button, the camera would come on in less than half a second, now its like 2 seconds, if you want a quick shot, you can forget it, the moment has gone.

im thinking of sending mine to canon uk, and never touching a magic lantern build again.

i dont understand, if they knew how to enable the flag, surely the command to disable is opposite?

Hello,

I agree that this is a major anoyance and I missed a few shots because of it.

I really hope that final version of ML for 5D Mark III will improve this "lag" or offer a method to properly remove ML if not needed.

In the meantime I will keep on trying the delightful features distilled by ML team.

Thanks again and keep on improving our Canon gears!

You all ran experimental alpha versions of a software with explicit warnings... alex has said it before in multiple threads that you will have to wait for a way to disable the boot flag because as of now there is no SAFE way to do it.

who in there right mind would spend upwards of 3 grand on a camera and then test experimental code on it.

It comes down to greed ... you want a camera that will do what a $15,000 red will do handed to you in the form of magic lantern.

If your gonna bitch about it, you should have been patient and let others test it and get the bugs worked out of it before trying it on your own camera.

I wouldn't worry about it guys ... they'll get it fixed before long.  So, you miss a shot or two waiting for your camera to boot.
