Bad news from magic lantern for 7D

Loic, did you just fabricate the little story in your original post?

That certainly sounds like it, there's no information that he provided that hasn't already been there all along. The original post sounds like complete speculation. It looks like he read something about ML currently not working with 7D and came up with the Canon conspiracy theory.
 
Closing this until more definitive info is available. Gotta be careful posting this stuff like it's fact when it's just assumptions. That's what canon rumors is for.
 
Reopening this now, Trammell posted about his progress.

[FONT=Courier, Monospaced]I really, really need to update the wiki with the current 7D status.
My minor edit to the FAQ has started an enormous amount of

[FONT=Courier, Monospaced]That is exactly the problem. "ARM Indy" believes it might be due to
the second DIGIC. He might be right; the shutdown code in the
flasher appears to do a sio_write() with some command (unknown what
is contains) as part of the abort process. It might be that we need
to shutdown the second CPU before jumping back into the boot loader
at 0xFFFF0000.[/FONT]
An update or two to the wiki, would also do a world of good in other fronts. It's bound to get others, like B. Cole, interested in solving the riddle and being carried by the crowd while chanting their name. It would also get more donations going their way to be able to focus more of their time.
 
They must not know the secret code - to access the diagnostic menu you have to do the following:

On the Joystick:

Up,Up
Down,Down
Left,Right
Left,Right
ISO
WB
SET
START

We gotta help these guys as much as we can, right? :cheesy:

Yeah i would apologize then delete this thread or change title and be more careful in the future.
I thought that its over with magic lantern and thats it for 7D because of this thread so please dont get overexcited about everything new you read on internets,or at least dont make up stories.

There is good news actually because this guy on googlegroups wants to help him with custom firmware.
