Hi,
Can someone confirm if the steps described in http://bb.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/flashing are still valid, as I can’t find “loader.e88loader.bin”. I’m using sylvain/testing branch.
Best regards, Robert,

Probably not.
And unless you know how to recover things with JTAG or have a lot of spare phones and you're ready to brick a bunch of them, I wouldn't even attempt flashing.
Both the code and the instructions related to it are pretty much unmaintained / untested and use at your own risk.
Cheers,
Sylvain
As Sylvain said you probably want to use quite a bit of caution to not brick phones. That said, I added some changes a while ago locally (not in the repo) to flash my c139 phone and haven't gotten any bricks yet (cross fingers). I was working on getting nuttx-bb flashed as a sole app on the phone, debugging startup problems and re-flashing repeatedly.
YMMV of course.
I don't think my changes are terribly interesting but can dig them up if you get stuck.
Probably you need to add some memory config and build targets to make the loader for e88? That is similar to some of my changes.

The problem is that I didn’t find the required file “loader.e88loader.bin”. Should I use another branch for this purpose? Also I think that I already bricked my C118.
Best regards, Robert,

I'll take a look at my code. Can you send a log of any data you get over the serial port when you turn on the phone? What makes you think you bricked the phone? What steps did you take and at which point did you think the phone was bricked?

I can’t turn ON my phone anymore. I had everything working fine until the final step in the following: $ host/osmocon/osmoload funlock 0x000000 0x10000 $ host/osmocon/osmoload ferase 0x000000 0x10000 $ host/osmocon/osmoload fprogram 0 0x000000 compal_loader.bin $ host/osmocon/osmoload fprogram 0 0x002000 target/firmware/board/compal_e88/loader.e88loader.bin I used loader.highram.bin instead of loader.e88loader.bin. I didn’t get any errors even after this step but then I couldn’t do anything with the phone.
Best regards, Robert,
