Problem with v0.2.6

I've been running FreeSafe 0.2.5 since it was released. Soon after I noticed that 0.2.6 (the SHA-1 bugfix) was available. So, I uninstalled v0.2.5 and then installed 0.2.6 from one of the mirror servers.
Unfortunately, when I select the "About" option the version number shown on screen is 0.2.5. Not surprisingly, the SHA-1 one-time password option still won't work. Basically, what appears to be happening is that I'm downloading 0.2.5 labelled as 0.2.6. Just to make sure I downloaded FreeSafe v0.2.6 and installed it again - but the same thing happened. Has anyone else had this problem?
However, when
Hi,
Unfortunately the end of you message is missing ("However, when...."). Yes, unfortunately I forgot ablout the about dialog :) and it doesn't show the correct version number. I have to tweak the build script to insert the version number automagically into the about dialog and the MANIFEST.MF file. The manifest was wrong as well, I just corrected it a few days ago.
However, the SHA1 thingy works for me. I tested it in the emulator and I use it on my Nokia 9210. I just checked it. But I will double check it, as I don't use the version that's in the download section now (with the corrected manifest file, showing version 0.2.6). Though it should really make no differecne, I'll install the one downloaded from SF.
BTW how did you install it? Did you get it from the downloads section, or from the website?

Hi,
I have similar problem with OTP not working.
My version shows 0.2.6, I installed it from Files under 0.2.6 (jfreesafe.zip).
I can normaly add OTP entry, but no mater what
"Hash type" I use, I always get "Not implemented" after choosing "Calculate OTP", although I get Hex output of 4 words.
I'm not familiar with J2ME programming (just J2SE), so I didn't really dig into code yet, if you can help to solve this problem, otherwise I surely will compile my own version and patch it of course :))
Hi,
Well, well, that's a problem of missing documentation... :) Actually the OTP generation works for you as well. What's missing is the so called 'six words' output. There are two output formats for an OTP: the four four digit long hex numbers and the six words. They encode the same password and both has to be accepted by any OTP client at login time.
FreeSafe does not generate the six words output yet as it probably takes quite a bit of memory to store the dictionary. However, I'm thinking of adding an optional implementation (the dictionary will load if there is enough memory). But you still can use the HEX output, I'm using it as well (and actually favor it over the six words as you have less characters to type :) ).
Thanx, it works perfectly :)
I haven't examined S-Key doc in such a detail to that neat feature about hex input :O
