Hi, im having some problems in software only, that i describe bellow in my log:

-FTDI based interface sold by tronix (vendor link on your site), usb2 to serial adaptor ( model TRX1227, CHIPSET FT232R ) -gnuarm&osmocom compiled from source on debian stable as per osmocom without a single problem. -ran osmocom from su (tried user as well), as instructed and as follows:

$ ./osmocon -p /dev/ttyUSB0 -m c123xor ../../target/firmware/board/compal_e88/loader.compalram.bin

output: whenever power button was pressed, all i got was some aparently random hex…(no expert on phone flashing here) with no getting to PROMPT1:

"root@box:/home/box/osmocomm/osmocom-bb/src/host/osmocon# sudo ./osmocon -p /dev/ttyUSB0 -m c123 ../../target/firmware/board/compal_e88/loader.compalram.bin got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 00 . got 2 bytes from modem, data looks like: 00 00 .. got 3 bytes from modem, data looks like: 72 82 bf r.. got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 00 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 00 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 00 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 00 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: a6 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 51 Q got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: d2 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 51 Q got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: b2 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: a4 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 00 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 00 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 4d M got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: a3 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 00 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 00 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 00 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 00 . got 1 bytes from modem, data looks like: 00 .

"

Same output, (maybe with a few more presses) in hex, using gtkterm@115200baud,8bit,nopar,1stop:

" 00 F1 00 72 82 BF 7D FD 7F 00 A6 51 D2 51 B2 A4 12 00 4D A3 A3 68 23 00 00 00 F1 00 72 82 BF 7D FD 7F 00 A6 51 D2 51 A4 A4 12 00 4D A3 A3 68 23 00 00 00 F1 00 72 82 BF 7D FD 7F 00 A6 51 D2 51 B2 A4 12 00 4D A3 A3 64 23 00 00 00 F1 00 72 82 BF 7D FD 7F 00 A6 51 D2 51 A4 A4 12 00 4D A3 A3 64 23 00 00 00 F1 00 72 82 BF 7D FD 7F 00 A6 51 D2 51 B2 A4 12 00 4D A3 A3 48 23 00 00 00 F1 00 72 82 BF 7D FD 7F 00 A6 51 D2 51 B2 A4 12 00 4D A3 A3 64 23 00 00 00 F1 00 72 82 BF 7D FD 7F 00 A6 51 D2 51 B4 A4 12 00 4D A3 A3 48 23 00 00 00 F1 00 72 82 BF 7D FD 7F 00 A6 51 D2 51 A4 A4 12 00 4D A3 A3 48 23 00 00 " -/dev/USB0 permission check - good, even chmoded 777&chown on rc.local. -cable check: thought txd was broken, but wasnt. checked from linux with a led stuck to the txd end of the jack, echo "whatever" > /dev/ttyUSB0, led did flash. -chances i put are: osmocom dependent on some specific C123 firmware? some kind of hidden compilation complication? some kind of ftdi eeprom config/bitrate/parity config missing for osmocom?

I hope i have managed to be concise enough. Great work guys.
