indiekiduk Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I would like a patch to modify the USB device product ID for: ScanSnap S1500: Product ID: 0x11a2 Vendor ID: 0x04c5 (Fujitsu Ltd.) To become: ScanSnap iX500: Product ID: 0x132b Vendor ID: 0x04c5 (Fujitsu Ltd.) So I can try to use the new 64bit drivers that don't support the older S1500's device ID. More info on the problem in the comments here 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illdev Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 (edited) That's funny, since a few days I need the exact same thing but for some other USB device! Please post all of your findings! I would very much appreciate that. One thing I've only recently (and therefore too late) found is https://github.com/slavaim/MacOSX-Kernel-Filter , but (public? ) development stopped in 2013 according to its readme. I can't seem to make it compile right now, maybe that's my own fault though. I need it to run on at least 10.13, better yet 10.11 min, but those are already too new. And even if that driver/injector (or whatever it truly is, I haven tested it yet) would work: I don't even know if that really supports changing the name of the device as the readme doesn't mention it. But I wildly guess it could do that as well, just look at its intense featureset. I've also found another question here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25994103/osx-change-product-id-to-usb-composite-device but no answers... There's also these docs: https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/DeviceDrivers/Conceptual/USBBook/USBDeviceInterfaces/USBDevInterfaces.html But damn, it's out of my league. I wouldn't know where to start. Edited December 7, 2018 by illdev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indiekiduk Posted December 7, 2018 Author Share Posted December 7, 2018 (edited) Thanks for the tip, I'm giving this a try https://gist.github.com/stefanocoding/923931ae84333e2db7d60aafbb5a4f7b edit: I think usb_modeswitch is for those 3G modems that can either be the modem or a storage device i.e. with the driver software usually on it. Says here "The program does not change the product ID. That's entirely up to the device.
