Error loading firmware onto Motorola C115.
by Ravi Sharan 08 May '14

08 May '14

Hi, I am trying out osmocom-bb with the Motorla C115. I have compiled libosmocore as a shared library and osmocom successfully. Also, I have compiled a "arm-none'eabi" cross toolchain from scratch. I get the following error: $ osmocon -p /dev/ttyUSB0 -m c123 ~/osmocom-bb/src/target/firmware/board/compal_e88/hello_world.compalram.bin got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 00 . got 2 bytes from modem, data looks like: 00 00 .. got 4 bytes from modem, data looks like: 1b f6 02 00 .... got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 41 A got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 01 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 40 @ Received PROMPT1 from phone, responding with CMD read_file(/home/ravi/osmocom-bb/src/target/firmware/board/compal_e88/hello_world.compalram.bin): file_size=25184, hdr_len=4, dnload_len=25191 got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 1b . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: f6 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 02 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 00 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 41 A got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 02 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 43 C Received PROMPT2 from phone, starting download handle_write(): 4096 bytes (4096/25191) handle_write(): 4096 bytes (8192/25191) handle_write(): 4096 bytes (12288/25191) handle_write(): 4096 bytes (16384/25191) handle_write(): 4096 bytes (20480/25191) handle_write(): 4096 bytes (24576/25191) handle_write(): 615 bytes (25191/25191) handle_write(): finished got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 1b . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: f6 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 02 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 00 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 45 E got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 53 S got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 16 .

Or can it be that my device is refusing connection with osmocon ? Thanks in advance. Ravi Sharan

Useful article on patching Nokia DCT4+ firmware
by Andrew Tipton 06 May '14

06 May '14

Hi folks, Came across this article in the latest PoC||GTFO journal describing (part of) the process for patching firmware on Nokia DCT4+ phones. The good stuff is pages 22-29 of this file: http://openwall.info/wiki/_media/people/solar/pocorgtfo03.pdf Alas, this does not appear to permit patching the first 1MB of firmware, so may not be helpful for OsmocomBB. But perhaps someone with more time on their hands can take this and run with it... Cheers, -Andrew

Frame Structure and Multiframe questions
by R M 26 Apr '14

26 Apr '14

Hi, I am trying to understand the Multiframe structure in GSM. Here is my question: Lets say that in a particular cell, only two GSM frequencies are available to cater to all the traffic. FB is the frequency of the beacon channel and FT is the frequency of the traffic channel. FBT0 is having the following configuration FCCH + SCH + BCCH + CCCH. Now a phone which is in this cell, gets paged for an incoming SMS. The phone responds to the paging request and gets an immediate assignment. The immediate assignment assigns it a channel with the following configuration: FTT2 and channel multiplexing is SDCCH/8 + SACCH/8. Now how does the phone know the multiframe structure of FTT2 ? In other words how does the phone know how long it has to wait, so that it can transmit in the right time-slot ? The same question applies to the BTS if we are talking about down-link ? Is there a relation between the multiframe structure of FBT0 and FTT2 ? Thanks and Regards, R M

Re: strange crashes in current main branch
by Christophe Devine 24 Apr '14

Quick heads up: I finally ended up using a LM 317T to lower the output voltage to ~4V, using R1=220, R2=550 and a 1uF capacitor, plus a OTB battery pcb. The phone doesn't get as hot as before, and the "battery" powers without delay. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByHQWL5Q6bSwTWo3ZnBHTS1KeXc/edit?usp=shari… https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByHQWL5Q6bSwM1FPeS1iVlBYX3M/edit?usp=shari…

Tim, Following your advice, I disassembled a battery, and directly connected the output of a 3.6v motorola charger to gnd and positive side of the charging pcb (of course the lithium cell is completely disconnected). See pictures below, gnd is the middle pad whereas the positive pad is on the left. When doing so be careful not to heat or pierce the lithium battery, and afterwards put some tape to ensure electrical isolation: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByHQWL5Q6bSwOHVPNlV5T2ZyZndLZmwtMF9JQ2V0eH… https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByHQWL5Q6bSwTGNfeUFOVFM5cldPNFZ3djMyMmlSNV… https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByHQWL5Q6bSwUm9XUnBOcU5SRFg4T3VpNEFZOUFHaU… The result appears to work although strangely sometimes after unplugging the charger for some time and replugging it the microcontroller on the pcb will not wake up. However it does immediately wake up if I measure the current between the + and - output with a basic multimeter, but with the black probe on the + and the red probe on the - (other way does not work). There's probably something I'm missing here, but it's not that big a deal. Maybe this is caused by a quirk in the microcontroller, as I've tried the same procedure on a new compatible battery (branded "OTB", see http://pmcdn.priceminister.com/photo/926610349.jpg) and it doesn't have this problem, the microcontroller wakes up immediately and powers the phone. The voltage might be a bit too high, but the phone seems to work fine (firmware reports a full battery - also it gets slightly hotter).

arm-elf-gcc
by Ahmad Jan 15 Apr '14

15 Apr '14

While installing osmocom-bb, i came across the "building the source" section. It says in later part that: " If your GCC binary that produces ARM code is not called *arm-elf-gcc* you will need to invoke the following statement and provide the basename of the toolchain with the ending *-*" cd src make -e CROSS_TOOL_PREFIX=arm-OTHER_NAME- How can i find out that my GCC binary is called as *arm-elf-gcc *or something else?

Error: no such instruction: `eor %edx,%r15d,%r15d,ror'
by Ahmad Jan 15 Apr '14

15 Apr '14

Hi... I m trying to install osmocom-bb using following link: http://bb.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/Software/GettingStarted First of all i installed the Dependencies for the host. Then for target dependencies, i build my own toolchain using following: http://bb.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/GnuArmToolchain This toolchain building processes ended up saying: "Build complete! Add /home/arslan/dir/install/bin to your PATH to make arm-elf-gcc and friends accessible directly." (i don't know building my own toolchain is necessary or not). Then i went back for building osmocom-bb There i came across getting and updating the source. But in building the source section, what it says is: " Compiling both the target and the host code will happen with the following command. It assumes that the *arm-elf-gcc* is* inside the current path.*" I didn't understand it as my current path is osmocom-bb and there is no arm-elf-gcc Can anyone tell me what does it mean? Anyways, i just ignored it and went on executing the following command cd src/ make So i ended up with an error saying: /home/arslan/osmocom-bb/src/target/firmware/include/asm/swab.h:32: Error: no such instruction: `eor %edx,%r15d,%r15d,ror' make[4]: *** [gsmtap_util.lo] Error 1 I tried to figure it out from Internet. It really didn't work out. M stuck at this point. Can anyone help me resolving this problem?
