Patch unlocks additional channels depending on country code:

Another patch for networking - not the best, but indicates channels available

before (purposefully changed the Region to US for this pic):

after setting the Region to JP (Japan):

Good opportunity for me to learn how to patch a file.

With the patches you have created above with the differences, can you provide an example of how to patch the respective files?

winter_soldier · January 17, 2016

patch binary isn't on the pineapple you may have it installed on you linux host (or 'apt-get install build-essetenial' should do it).

Hopefully Darren/Seb will mainstream these patches for ease of use?

First download the required folder via ssh/scp (for example Configuration):

local$ scp -r root@pineapple:/pineapple/modules/Configuration .

assuming you copied the configuration patch to config.patch in a directory outside Configuration

local$ cd Configuration
local$ patch -p1 < ../config.patch

(if it borks for whatever reason due to paths) just ensure its the right file e.g.. Configuration/api/module.php

Then re-upload the patched binaries back to the pineapple

local$ scp -r Configuration root@pineapple:/pineapple/modules/

Cool thanks will do!. I don't have my nano yet. So i'm on ubuntu anyways. I'll patch it there and move the updated files when I get it to the pineapple

Hi, I'm getting following error while patching module.html file:

File to patch: module.html
patching file module.html
Hunk #1 succeeded at 43 (offset 1 line).
patch unexpectedly ends in middle of line
patch: **** malformed patch at line 142:

And no Region-buttons appear under configuration :sad:

Using Tetra with 1.02 firmware (I believe, the software should be the same for both Nano and Tetra?)

Edited March 19, 2016 by flipflop

winter_soldier · June 22, 2016

Im short on time at the moment, I'll need to look into the tetra to see what the difference is?

think someone ordered one in the office, hopefully it will arrive in the next few weeks? else its slaving over a firmware image?
