@drummer10630

I realise what this thread is about. But every time I search for assistance with my issue this is one of the threads that appears - bound to happen since I'm searching on "WLAN" and "Wifi" as my search terms.

Since it is not relevant to my issue, and anyone else who has this issue, I thought it would be a good place to ask for advice about where I could find help with my issue.

As I clearly stated I did not have issues prior to upgrading to WM6 so as far as I'm concerned the problem is in one way or another directly related to upgrading. Also since I have 3 or 4 other devices currently using the same AP and it was working on my Hermes prior to upgrading I would like to discuss this in a forum familiar with these devices and potential upgrade issues.

So instead of just ignoring the fact that I have already acknowledged what this thread is about and re-stating the obvious ("EEPROM EEPROM" - I've read the entire thread a dozen times and am not under any illusion as to what Pof and Olipro are working to resolve), how about you just say that you're not aware of any other threads that may be able to help.

I will start a new thread with the information I have provided so as not to upset those working on the EEPROM issue.

Alrighty then...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] chrisvor:
I have heard of lnbs and I can read up on it if you want me to test anything... The reason I hooked-up on XDA-devs initially was because I completely effed-up by hermes, and my superCID setting was screwed-up, so I couldn't run the lnbs commands.

But I *did* run some "erase" commands in my efforts to revive my machine, which probably erased the MAC address and whatever else.

I'm not "electronic engineering" technical, but I am an experienced programmer (on pc's though, not on ppc's), so I will probably be able to get around mtty commands and such, so if you have something I can test (that will not totally eff-up my ppc) pls go ahead and let me know.

Okay so I dig more on the WLAN Chip used for Hermes, It's TI chip, it's driver always have ACX100 string on it. From one of post they mentioned that the the LAN EEPROM/MAC Address is somewhere between SPL and the MainSplash.

Then I dig into SPL NB, this is what I found. BAsically it's the offset of the ACX100 string in the SPL file

ROM 1.34 SPL

I'm not sure this will help but is there someone outthere with good WLAN is kind enough to DUMP the whole NAND content for us to try to upload to the NAND of the Dead WLAN to give it a shot?

Hi,

What ROM with WM5 you flash back to your hermes to be able to get back the Wifi?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] chrisvor:
An erased/corrupted EEPROM will NOT be fixed by any kind of Windows ROM upgrade/downgrade.

Apparently his problem was not related to what we are experiencing, but rather he tried an early version of WM6 rom which had issues with the Wi-Fi (being dropped, unable to connect etc - but NOT unable to "enable")
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] laikos:
HI Chris,

I Apart from having EEPROM Signature FF FF FF FF FF, I also have 1 bad block in my ROM. Might this one have something to do with the cause that contribute to the Dead WLAN?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] drummer10630:
Mine doesn't even report past Block 0xC(12) using info 8, (maybe that's due to the bootloader I am using?), and I have the dead wlan too.

I have an Orange m3100, Herm100 with SPL 1.09 and IPL 1.01 WM5 using latest AKU 3.3.1 rom from Orange UK. This persistant dead WLAN issue is due to the fact that the wlan MAC address was flashed onto the NAND from the factory (Samsung?, Texas Instruments?, HTC?). It isn't something that gets written anew upon RUU flashing, or upgrading/downgrading. Once it gets erased, the only options are:

1. unsolder and replace the chip

2. replace the motherboard

3. replace the unit

4. clone another's MAC by flashing the NAND (if you can figure out the method)

5. wait for pof and/or olipro to post a solution
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] laikos:
I have experience with Desktop Motherboard, if the EEPROM is corrupted it is easy for fix. We got the utility to write only the LAN EEPROM (or can even edit it on the fly). So I suppose that HTC should have that kind of utility too. Else the manufacturing line should have In-Circuit-Tester that can do the trick as well. I saw from the Hermes Service Manual that they have MicroSD card w/ HTC Test Utility on it. I wonder if someone had their hand on the utility. The option you have are

1. unsolder and replace the chip <- which chip?

2. replace the motherboard <- cost almost same price as the unit last I check here

3. replace the unit <- I bought mine 2nd Hand. Also I'm 10,000KM away from the place I bought it.

4. clone another's MAC by flashing the NAND (if you can figure out the method) <- This is the best option. Coz MAC address can be clone (although there are suppose to be unique), Is there utility that can write to random location in the NAND?

5. wait for pof and/or olipro to post a solution <- patiently waiting for them
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] drummer10630:
@laikos...here is the (very mysterious) procedure you can try:

1) see which is the EEPROM signature on a working device (task 37 ff)

2) patch the bootloader to allow rbmc at any address

3) rbmc full NAND until you find the EEPROM signature

4) patch the bootloader to allow lnb at any address

5) dump wlan EEPROM from a working device using rbmc

6) flash it on a wifi-dead deivce using lnb

This is on NAND, around offset 0x500CD800 (after SPL and before MainSplash).

So it seems like these MIGHT be the steps...

1. find someone to dump their working wlan eeprom into an .nb file using rbmc commands in MTTY (using SPL 2.30 Oli?) better read up on rbmc commands first.

2. flash the .nb file to your non-working wlan device (non-working device must have bootloader HardSPL v7, or 2.30. I think (?) the commands would be task 32, level=0, lnb (filename.nb) 500a0000, task 8

As I see it you are facing several problems...

1. users might be reluctant to dump and share their MAC eeprom with you, as any abuse or illegal activity using that MAC address could be traced back to the original owner.

2. technically, cloning a MAC address is deemed illegal, due to the possibilities of #1.

3. asking someone to flash their device with a bootloader that allows rbmc, and lnb at any address (2.30 oli?) is asking them to flash an unknown (to most of us) binary code to their device, no disrespect to olipro.

4. flashing the non-working wlan device with this new data, without ensuring the exact address and other contents (backup CID, serial number) within the 4000 size, could lead to other malfunctions

Sorry to be so vague, but there is not much info available...TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK

I have a Tytn (dead wifi) and a 8525. I'm willing to try this but have very little experience with mtty. Is there any way you cold help with some step by step instructions?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] laikos:
I suppose if you can rbmc at any location, the donor can give us the 4000 bytes we need. Also if they know thier MAC Address they can put FF into it and we can hex edit it. I can throw you guys lots of Mac Address because in our test lab we've got tons of IntelPro Lan Card we are going to scrap and it has valid Mac Address.

I've not able to find SPL 2.30 in this case though. Any download location?

Would you be our 4000 bytes donor?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] drummer10630:
@laikos...Since I have a dead wlan, I don't have the eeprom data to dump either. But if you read http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=299451&page=2 at posts #20, #22, and #24 you can see how Pof and Olipro discovered it.

I would also read this http://irclog.iclem.net/?chan=htc-linux&month=4&day=26 for more information.

SPL 2.30 is on the XDA FTP site in the Hermes/Hard_SPL folder.

@GenesysLV...the details with the exact steps have not been posted. I am simply doing some research of earlier posts...That being said, I would recommend you wait until someone successfully does it, and posts the "method".

@tigersim303....please feel free to make a new post regarding your problem, as hijacking this thread and taking it off topic is not appropriate nor likely to get you any assistance, since those with a similar problem to yours, will not neccessarily be reading this thread.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] laikos:
Okay, so I got SPL 2.3, I tried to rbmc my NAND but it seems it does not get anywhere. Can someone point out where it goes wrong?

<code>

IPL-1.0

SPL-2.30.Olipro

</code>

It stuck there then nothing happen. There's no test.nb created too :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] drummer10630:
I'm not an expert, but since you have a dead wlan, and that part of your eeprom is erased, you don't have any data at the address you specified.

The idea is to have the user with a working wlan to rbmc HIS eeprom.

Even if you did have a working wlan, you should rbmc the whole nand first (according to what pof posted), and I can see by your post, you didn't input any password, nor "set 1e 1" commands, which I think are mandatory, unless somehow the 2.30 SPL bypasses the need...?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] laikos:
Thanks drummer,

Looks like "set 1e 1" is mandatory. So I got 2 different MTTY.EXE here, 1 with a serial cable icon and the other one is MFC icon. Looks like nothing happen still on the one with Serial Cable icon. (Connect using \\WCES01USB01) but when I use the other mtty (Connect using USB) it spits the text to the screen and never write it into file. Look like I will need a USB Monitor to capture the data, but how can I be sure the data is correct after I do the capturing and converting.

Wifi Problem

Hi People !!!

I was reading the Topic because I have killed my wifi too, but on my wizard. I have started the Radio ROM Update over Windows Vista and it crashed the update process. After that my Wifi was dead :(

I was despite when I saw that there are more people with the same problem and that to solution has not been found, so I decided to download the last official update from Vodafone (I am by Vodafone, and my wizard is VPA Compact II).

I wanted to put CID and Lock back, put last update from Vodafone and tell that it happend after the update by Vodafone has crashed (not radio update), and send it back to service :D

As I have replaced my WM6 with WM5 from official Vodafone, the Mac address was back, and I could activate my WLAN Again !!!!!

So, it is worth of a try, get your Providers Original Roms and try the downgrade to wm5.

Wish you all much luck in fixing your Wifi Problems, and finding the solution.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] drummer10630:
@laikos...What commands did you use this time? BTW, you DO understand that since you have a non-working wlan, as in erased from the eeprom, you won't find anything you can use to reflash your device to enable the wlan when you rbmc that part of your NAND, right? I have no idea about the output of USB mon as to the nature of it's data, or whether or not in can be or needs to be converted...Seems to me, if that was a viable solution, pof or olipro would have mentioned it. I think it just comes down to getting the commands exactly right, and having the correct code from a working device.

@armink...glad you resolved your wlan problem. After reading that another member did the same thing you did, I too flashed my device with the official rom from Orange, since I have an m3100, but it didn't fix mine. Tried it twice, no joy.

Changing MAC Adress

I found this post about changing the mac adress, I don't really understand it but I think it may help, if someone could make a program with an easy to use GUI that would greatly be appreciated since my wifi hasnt been working since around January

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=292146&highlight=eeprom
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] laikos:
I've managed to rmbc at any other address but yes, the offset for the EEPROM is blank. Seems like not only the MAC Address is gone but the whole LAN EEPROM portion is gone.

@armink, may I have the link for the ROM you are using, I would give it a try though mine is hermes.

So now it down to 2 issue:

1. Get a rbmc of the WHOLE hermes, NAND content,

2. How to get rbmc to save the dump to a file

Which if issue 2 is resolved we probably can hand typed the necessary EEPROM content or copy the EEPROM content from some sources into the NAND dump and flash it back to the device.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] drummer10630:
Well, we have made some progress. We finally figured out how to get SPL 2.30 oli onto the device. We had to follow the MrVanx's downgrade SPL guide to get it back to SPL 1.04, then convert 2.30 from an .nb file to an .nbh file using Dutty's nbh tool, then ran the custom RUUwrapper using "force SSPL" (only) to flash the phone.

Then we got a USB Monitor export of rbmc thru MTTY. That wasn't easy, and the nand was never saved in a file (as rbmc is SUPPOSED to do). We ended up with a less then perfect file, but it has the MAC signature info on it.

So now we have this ANSI text file which we will need to convert to binary, and try to gleen out the nonsense data in the file, and make it the right size for flashing.

Man, the more I work on this, the more I respect the senior members here and programmers everywhere. This has not been easy. Once we get a successful flash of the wlan section of the eeprom, we will post the procedure. If only I had studied Unix in school...

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] rob-ix:
Isn't there a Linux tool floating around somewhere that performs the same functions as MTTY but on Linux? I remember it using a while back. This should allow output without the ANSI

Can this ANSI file be posted? I'm sure the stripping the ANSI out can easily be done through awk/sed/perl.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] laikos:
I've got the binary version of the WLAN EEPROM already, however still don't know at which offset it is suppose to be at. Does anyone knows the exact location of the it in the NAND?

Also, in my opinion, theming the quicksettings drawer

(and maybe other pure black/white backgrounds)

like the power/advanced reboot menu, would look great.

Good day gentlemen. I have been using CM12 nightlies since CM released them on my G900-W8. I am wondering if there is a way somehow to tell my phone to use my own network operator when it is available.

EX: I am with Videotron, however my phone connects to Rogers all the time, even though Rogers is not as strong as videotron in some areas, I don't get charged, but still annoys the crap out of me.

Is there a way to tell it to auto select videotron or to change something in the config file in order to force it to use videotron unless it is not available? An app maybe? A little searching brought me nothing so I come to the greatest community on the face of the internet, help me! :)

Hi all,

Long time no speak. :)

I've currently run into a problem with my music players my phone and was wondering what I can do to fix it. The problem is my seekbar. It's been acting pretty weird recently, like when I want to start a song from the middle it won't fast forward the time I need to be. I could drag the cursor all the way to the middle of a song and it would only play from maybe 10 secs the beginning. I can literally take the cursor, move it to just before the end of a song and it would play beyond the time when it's supposed end. It's pretty broken for rewinding as well. Anyone got advice or troubleshooting steps for me to follow?

The problem looks to be on a few files and my USB died last night. I guess that means the file may have been corrupted by the USB cord.
