Finally   :)
A build that's showing progress. I can not wait until I get to try this out.

For the meantime if you don't have the dev build for M50, I'd just be patient and wait for the contributors to work their magic. I really wish that I could help speed things up but I can't speak/read/write C. Only if this was WebScript language :) but until then, I'm not going to bother anyone until there's a broken link to download this FW :D good job devs, keep up the great work

Yes that one as well. Which reminds me, I need to upload that video of me attempting the downgrade. Like I mentioned in a different thread: my m50 utilize wireless EOS utility. You can connect via usb "but" you can not write/alter the mounted card. Not sure if this is something that canon is beginning to implement in their new FW.

Hello guys, I'm still new here, but would like to try Magic Lantern on my M50, unfortunately I installed version 1.0.3. Can I downgrade the version to 1.0.1 or 1.0.2? Does anybody have experiences with it?

Best regards

TBH looks like we'd have to wait until the devs have had time to look into a fix to downgrade. As of now some guys are obviously working on the m50 code but they are far from the looking into a fix if the m50 downgrade ability has truly been locked at 1.0.3. With all the other cameras running ML, all attention is apparently focused on getting stable builds for those cameras.

If it makes you feel better, I too own an m50 on v1.0.3. I too am unable to downgrade. I too want to try out ML but the only code for this camera is not even a complete build. I'm not sure if I want to sell this thing and get something older, attempt to compile a code of my own (dangerous) or just be patient and await for an official port of ML on m50.

After all, I love this camera. I love the footprint, build quality & internals. I think it would be a monster of a camera when the time comes. In regards downgrade options, I have not yet found one that works. I've tried every available lead :'(

Sorry for the late response, been editing video since April 19 :-X as soon as I get room in between edits, I will post the video. Currently doing post  :'(



*edit: one more thing, should I use a smaller sd card? It seems 16gb formats as fat32 and 32gb formats as exfat. Do you think this would be a reason to why I am unable to downgrade and or install ML? Reason being, when I flash ML Bootable disk, my ML bin file initiates a dump. Even when camera is in off position, lights flash, camera starts and it begins to dump to card. After process complete. I take out put back in the battery, close the door; camera starts to dump again. It's weird but I will record it as well

In regards to tried everything, yes I mean:

* attempt downgrade via EOS utility. once I reach the end of the file transfer, I arrive to a screen that does not initiate the update/downgrade. After a while, my camera shutdown. Upon awakening, I go to menu and attempt downgrade and arrive to older firmware error. Also in my EOS utility, USB functions are disabled as the camera transfer via WiFi. (V1.0.3)  locks the ability to downgrade. I am not able to see the WFT option in my EOS utility. EOS utility v2 does not detect my camera and it opens v3.

*I format card, reset custom buttons and manually load v1.0.2 to sd card, I still get the same older firmware detected error

In regards to why I want to downgrade: yes I would like to test drive the limited version ML. Just to reference the code and see if I can help out "or" by the good graces of the camera gods: an official test version is released 😬

I have a M50 tho 😬 I tried all available options but nothing works. ML for this camera is not yet released and I am using version 1.0.3 😫
#7
Sorry for crashing the discussion, but I was wondering if anyone had any insight on how to downgrade firmware on a different camera? ie. My camera is giving me an older firmware version error (blah, blah, blah 😑)
#8
Same thing here on my M50. I can not get past the screen that says remove battery. FWIW I made the mistake of upgrading my firmware from 1.0.2 to 1.0.3 before discovering ML. I've tried to downgrade but my camera keep giving the old firmware error and I can not go back to 1.0.2. I'm able to start camera on eosDisk and I'm even able to run the firmware dump.fir (which generates rom dump) but no action on ML nor when I try to downgrade.
