Hi

I just got my cable and am trying to download any code into a C139 (tracfone software, bought from usa on ebay).

This is what I get: $ ./osmocon -m c123 -p /dev/ttyS2 compal_dump.bin waiting for data got 7 bytes from modem, data looks like: 66 74 6d 74 6f 6f 6c Received FTMTOOL from phone, ramolader has aborted got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 65 got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 72 got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 72 got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 6f got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 72 ^C

From what I can tell the transfer mode and file doesn't matter at this stage. Any ideas?

not really. it might be the case that your software uses a different bootloader or the port is configured differently.

If I boot the phone and use 57600bps I get some prints and then AT returns OK, no other AT commands work.

I don't think the baud rate is the issue, as osmocon recognizes the 'ftmtool' from the phone, which is sent to the port _after_ the phone has had a timeout waiting for osmocon (or other software) to download some code into RAM.
