JTAG

According a to a friendly source, the JTAG pins shown in post #XX is arranged into the Huawei (?) standard of 10 pads in line. Here's a picture of the JTAG pins of the E173.

Similarly, in the E589, the pins have the following functions:

[SIZE=2]-----------------------------------------------
pin IEEE 1149.1 Function
-----------------------------------------------
1. VREF [Reference Voltage (Vref/Vcc)]
2. TCK Test Clock
3. GND [Ground]
4. TMS Test Mode Select
5. TDI Test Data In
6. TDO Test Data Out
7. RTCK [Return TCK]
8. TRST Test Reset
9. NRST [Target CPU reset (nRST)]
10. ? <unknown>
-----------------------------------------------[/SIZE]

The pins are numbered and read from right-to-left in the E589 picture.

using as USB modem via RNDIS

Hi Guys,

Your contribution is awesome!

Did someone figure out how to use the modem via USB? for instance to plug into LAN router

Manufacturer says it only charges via USB and can not be used as USB modem, but I guess RNDIS is there and it is a matter of AT commands to activate it?

Thanks in advance for any ideas
[Hardware Hacking General] Anto.gj:
I was asking myself the same question. I am using it for online gaming and i am pretty sure pings would be better if i managed to connect it via usb.

(yeah, don't laugh please, i have no access to wired connection and that is quite a serious issue :/ )

Oh, by the way, i just wanted to say thank you for this awesome thread, keep up the good work.
[Hardware Hacking General] E:V:A:
I'm sure it would be possible, but since Huawei have completely forgotten about this embarrassingly poorly designed and supported device, it's not likely we'll ever see any such possibilities, unless we can create our own firmware or hack up some other solution. We certainly connect via debug (with QPST and QXDM) without any problems, so all functionality should be there. And the shi77y Huawei Mobile Partner also kind of works...

When I have more time I'll look into unlocking the EFS and try to rebuild it, perhaps with Gobi Sources. But that is a very long time project! Feel free to help look into it, if you have any time, interest or skills!

In order to do this, we need to understand how to re-build the radio part of the embedded system. They're not running *nix based OS here, so it's hard to know what to do, as I have nearly no experience in non linux based devices.
[Hardware Hacking General] ayongkot:
i successfully flashed 2 different firmware from the russian website int his forum but i don't know how to flash the one with sdimage.bin. is there any software to flash this?
[Hardware Hacking General] E:V:A:
I'm sure there is, so let us know when you find it.

The theory is that you put that image on your SD card and then put your router into download mode, by pressing some key combinations during start. If that doesn't work, you can send some AT commands while connected by USB, to put it into that mode, but then you'll probably (?) have to disconnect before reboot. Perhaps it says something in you manual about that?

But if you already flashed the firmware, you don't need it. It seem to be just a redundant way of flashing when/if stuck in download mode, and interface doesn't work as expected etc.

[Hardware Hacking General] Surge1223:
Is there a thread on this? Unfortunately the gobi sources available right now are outdated and require patching so I built a linux kernel module (GobiSerial.ko) by modifying GobiSerial.c to work with devices that have 3 4+ linux kernel and added some things from my devices kernel source drivers. The driver works but I havent experimented with it much. After finding some more recent gobi documentation and finding modem procedures im going to recompile after making changes.

e5776s-32

Hi, I have a bunch of these mifi things. Have opened one up but am unable to identify any of the ic's other than some basic descriptions such as one of them being an lte/4G power amplifier. Most hisilicon.

I was hoping to be able to get some form of Linux based system or at least a way to get custom code into these. Open wrt would be ideal.

Does anybody have any idea as to spec, cpu, memory etc? I can provide photos of the pcb, ic's etc.

I notice it has a set of pads looking very similar to those posted earlier in this thread so suspect they are jtag. Will try to confirm.

The usb is not just for charging, Enumerates as a client. Maybe has otg hw and can function as host if lucky.
[Hardware Hacking General] dan2003:
So here are pics of each side. As you can see, very similar jtag(?) Pads. Also the same arrangement of 5 pads that maybe uart(s). But no qualcom branded packages.

I'll probe the 5 pads to see if they look like uart, see if any firm of console / bootloader is accessible.

I'll also try playing with the jtag interface to see if can gather anything from that. One of the chips looks like emmc which I can maybe dump and analyse.
[Hardware Hacking General] E:V:A:
@dan2003 : Hi Dan, unfortunately your device is completley different from the E589, as yours is based on HiSilicon chips and not Qualcomm as this thread is mostly about. I suggest you go to GSMforums and ask around there, or open a new thread here at XDA, but I can tell you, there are very little MiFi related help to find and get here.

But your project sound both interesting and quite doable.

I've heard of people running servers etc on same device as yours.

Good Luck & Cheers!
[Hardware Hacking General] dan2003:
Thanks for the pointer, I had a look over at GSM-Forum but can't find much info there either. However I decided to have a peep at the content of the German firmware file and looks like have hit the jackpot. It seems to already be running some form of linux, looking for a way in. Will start a new post if I find anything useful.

[Hardware Hacking General] nayheyshun:
Fascinating read, personally I've been through heck trying to research QC based devices for SDR uses and general curiosity. Sadly with little to no success, recently I've been working on sniffing/spoofing the rf handshakes between a similar QC based device and it's WAN. It's nice to see someone else perusing a similar goal.
[Hardware Hacking General] starbucks2010:
Hello,

Can you please give some more details about what have you installed from hack pack to get all those ports? How did you connect with Putty (speed, port, etc)?

I have an E5776 and I can get only "PC UI Interface (COM17)" and Huawei SD Storage. No GPS or diagnostic ports.

Does "B151 HiSilicon UE agent" tells you something? If yes, do you know from where ca I install it?

Thank you.

Connect E589 via usb

Hi E:V:A!

A very interesting thread You have started and filled here. This really seams like a device full of opportunities.

I hope the end is not reached on this thread.

May I ad that by connecting my E589u-12 to a Asus WL-520GU Router through usb it started working as a cabel-router automatically. It is not recognized but works like a charm. I discovered it by connecting it for charging and when the wifi connection failed the computer was connected through cabel on another router in the home network. As my attention only for then was for the internal network it took me a while to discover when the "homework" was done that the network cabel was still plugged in, although I was out on the net and my wifi automatically disabled in the laptop. So the Huawei E589u-12 only needs to be treated as local router and cabel-modem to get going. The Asus WL520GU has capabilities to connect an usb-network printer as I have read from the short logs. So there are some sensing on the usb connector. Firmware is quite old. 3.0.14. I guess the E589 truly exposed itself as a router.

Cheers Sven.

Hi!

I have a Huawei E589-12U router connected via USB (power only) to Hui Fei RK3188 car unit.

Is it possible to make the router Power on when USB powered? (turning the ignition on)?

Now when powered, it starts up, shows Huawei logo, and after a few seconds, it shows battery charging icon. That's it.

That is completely unconvenient when the router is used in car. I need to open the glove department, find the inconvenient power button, press it for 5 seconds until the router starts to power on, close the glove department, each time after I get into car after more than a few hours (battery runs out in the router).

How can I make the router power on automaticallly as soon as it gets power from the USB port?

It should be only a matter of 1 line of code to be executed on power, I guess.

Some time ago I found a post with someone saying he took out the battery from the router, thus forcing it to power on when powered instead of just charging the battery. But I cannot find this post any more to verify this.

Olso, I would prefer to leave the battery in the router, just force it to start when powered. Thus, when I turn of the car ignition after driving, the router would remain on until it runs out of the battery power again.

Could you please help me archieve this?

Thank you in advance!

2 internal RF connectors you mentioned is called as ANTENNA SWITCH I guess! (https://www.murata.com/en-us/products/connector/switchconnector)

The RF circuit and ANT characteristics can be measured by mounting in an RF transmission line.

The internally built-in mechanical switch separates the RF circuit and ANT circuit, so that the circuit can be measured without any mutual effect using a dedicated probe

it's not a RF connectors it's Switch for technicians to test the modem with and without antenna! isn't it?:confused:

Thanks to everyone who contributed!

I recently bought this used on the classifieds and have been experiencing very slow browsing speeds on it. With the same sim card in my phone I'm able to get close to 100mbps, but with the modem I'm nearing 20mbps at best when outside.

I thought about a firmware upgrade and ultimately managed to find the correct firmware package (albeit old, 2 versions above mine. v.13 to v.15) and I've updated it. It asks for a password when updating, which you can generate free with a piece of small software.

I'll test the modem in the following days to see if the speed improves with the new firmware.

Also considering buying an external antenna but don't know which ones are compatible or if I will be able to source one in my country of residence (Romania).

However, when I connect my phone to my PC, it won't open my SD card.

It's charging properly, and the PC recognises it as E10i, but when I enter the partition that my phone is, it shows a folder called SD card. When I double click it, it's just loading and it won't open it. I've tried on 2 different PC's and nothing.

Hello friends, developers and users, i dont think i have got the permission to even ask this of u but still have gathered my courage.

This time i am speaking for the MMX A110 community,although this is the Xperia Z community and i shouldn't post it here

Our device can run CM10.1 but we do not have the kernal sources.

So i humbly ask of u to please help us by signing this petition:

https://www.change.org/en-IN/petitions/micromax-informatics-ltd-

MMX is not like Sony and doesnt even release their kernal, but the A110 is a good device and i wish to help the developers in anyway i can even if by begging

I will post this in Samsung and HTC device threads also but Xperia is a large community and we would like ur help. Thank U for listening to me.

Who am I to say all this?

Just a kid with brain full of ideas and simple dream to make device better than manufacturers stock rom

Why am I posting it here?

Becoz this way interaction between the developers and users of diffrent community will be more and we will help everyone that way and in the end our devices will benefit better from it.
