15:10.55drummer10630cr2....you there?
15:15.59cr2_yes.
15:17.37drummer10630remember back in April you and pof were talking about the hermes wlan eeprom nand?
15:19.32cr2_yes.
15:20.10drummer10630did you ever experiment with dumping the complete nand from the Hermes?
15:20.14cr2_there is something strange linked to it, i.e. some sdio activity.
15:20.46cr2_no, because we get a lot of errors with the "standard" linux samsung NAND driver.
15:20.55drummer10630I see
15:21.43drummer10630you mean their reverse block and mfr id's?
15:21.57cr2_is it possible to do a full nand dump in wince ?
15:22.06cr2_hmm, maybe.
15:22.27cr2_the fact is that the linux driver does not work as expected.
15:23.01drummer10630seems that pof and oli did it with a special spl, then cloned a mac to prove the wlan concept
15:23.15cr2_the chip is detected as is it is, but then comes a message about the hw ECC problems and it's not possible to read the actual 512byte blocks.
15:23.52cr2_special spl may be just a workaround for the spl's own nand block driver.
15:24.07drummer10630seems they were able to rbmc the nand?
15:24.21cr2_i guess so.
15:24.35cr2_dumping spl is not a big problem.
15:24.54cr2_because you can dump its running copy from RAM
15:25.12cr2_and wince does not overwrite it in operation.
15:25.34drummer10630that is exactly what I need to do, but get stuck when I ned to flash my dead wlan nand, as I dont know the address to flash
15:26.05cr2_i don't remember if the RAM layout is documented in wiki, but it was spl+"dmesg buffer"+wince.
15:26.07cr2_ok.
15:26.38drummer10630its around offset 0x500CD800 or thereabouts but I dont know how to pinpoint it
15:27.30drummer10630the wiki memory map says offset 0x500CD800
15:27.35drummer10630opps
15:27.57drummer10630offset 0x500a000
15:28.04drummer106300
15:28.12cr2_i think that the right way is to make the linux driver work.
15:28.57drummer10630hmmmm, I am wondering if I flash it at offset 0x500CD800 with a 4000 size, I am goog to go?
15:29.13drummer10630*good
15:29.33cr2_hmm. i need to look at the wiki
15:32.03drummer10630my planned procedure is task 32, level=0, lnbs flash.nb 500a0000 task 8

15:33.23drummer10630does that seem right?
15:34.18drummer10630or actually lnb not lnbs
15:34.38*** join/#htc-linux Tjikkun (n=tjikkun@82-204-54-115.dsl.bbeyond.nl)
15:35.57cr2_this addr is not documented in the wiki.
15:36.06cr2_http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HermesMemoryMap
15:36.25cr2_i'm not really familiar with the spl addressing scheme.
15:36.42drummer10630did you read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299451&page=2 post #20 ?
15:36.58preditorHiya. First time in. Have installed and running Angstrom/GPE on Universal. Can someone help with getting the USB network connection up so that I can SSH into it please?
15:37.35cr2_preditor: ifup usb0
15:37.42cr2_drummer10630: no.
15:37.50preditorthanks cr2.
15:38.01drummer10630cr2..thats where pof posted his findings
15:38.34cr2_i'm reading
15:40.18cr2_This is on NAND, around offset 0x500CD800 (after SPL and before MainSplash).
15:40.40cr2_the 0x500xxx is just some internal spl addressing scheme.
15:41.10cr2_i wish we can document the translation to the "real" physical NAND addresses.
15:41.21drummer10630exactly
15:42.06cr2_btw.
15:42.09cr2_05/23/2006 23:57:46 [K :: KERNEL] HTC Nand Read!
15:42.10cr2_<PROTECTED>
15:42.28cr2_this stuff can be read in what i name 'dmesg buffer'.
15:42.48drummer10630one workaound is to dump wlan EEPROM from a working device using rbmc, the flash it to a non working wlan device
15:42.50cr2_i think it starts the 3MB DRAM offset.
15:43.04cr2_but the exact data is in the logs.
15:43.05preditorusb0 = 192.168.0.202, but I can't see anything on the desktop machine, no new network. Do I need to mknod the /dev/usb or something?
15:43.25cr2_drummer10630: agreed.
15:43.51drummer10630but I dont know how to use rmbc, or what command I need to use to flash it when I do get a full dump
15:43.52cr2_preditor: 'lsusb' on the desktop should show the device. do you see it ?
15:44.12cr2_drummer10630: ask pof. isn't it documented in wiki ?
15:44.48preditoryes, with SA-11x0
15:45.42drummer10630cr2....no its not, it just says 0x500a0000 on the memorymap page, and he cant post a procedure for cloning a mac cause its techincally illegal
15:45.57drummer10630to clone a mac
15:46.25cr2_preditor: /sbin/ifconfig usb0 on the desktop ?
15:46.28preditornothing is illegal unless you get caught
15:46.47drummer10630but I have flahed many SPLs using that method and "fake" memorey addreses and it works fine
15:47.33cr2_drummer10630: heh. why is replacing wlan addr is illegal ?
15:47.40cr2_what about bt ??
15:48.01preditorEthernet, HWaddr B6:96.... BCAST MULTI Metric 1 0packets in or out
15:48.03drummer10630cr2...not suew actually, but was told that by other prominent members
15:48.28preditori thought it was only imei changing that was verboten?
15:48.33drummer10630not the wlan address, but cloning another device's mac
15:49.07drummer10630if thats a legal distinction?
15:49.28cr2_i think it depends on your intentions.
15:49.40cr2_the mac addresses clash sometimes.
15:50.02preditora mac address is an individually identifying mark, but so many firmwares in routers do it that it can't be illegal to clone it.
15:50.15drummer10630I agree, mine is get my wlan working, and the chances of having the same mac as another person here in the Philippines is NONE
15:50.15cr2_unless htc uses mac=imei it should not be a problem.
15:50.59drummer10630cr2....can I ask if you have a hermes device with a working wlan?
15:51.45cr2_the vendor-specific commands for changing the bluetooth address are part of the bluez-utils package, and reflashing the network card eeproms tools were available since 1994
15:51.55cr2_drummer10630: yes.

15:52.44drummer10630cr2....it seems the patched bootloader Oli 2.30 is available on XDA FTP site...would you be willing to help me by doing a dump?
15:53.45cr2_i can dump whatever you like, but will not flash some undocumented binary code aka hacked spl.
15:53.56preditorso all the usual parts of usb0 are there, but missing an IP address
15:54.30cr2_preditor: ifconfig usb0 192.168.0.1 up
15:54.35cr2_on the host side.
15:55.20preditorthanks cr2. appreciate all your work, and your help
15:56.27drummer10630cr2...understood.....could you rbmc full NAND until you find the EEPROM signature?
15:57.37cr2_yes. tell me the commands.
15:58.26drummer10630cr2....hold on a sec
15:59.32cr2_actually i don't mind flashing something, but it should be a full-disclosure stuff, not some binary blob with a promise that it works.
16:01.31drummer10630gotcha....well you need to use a bootloader that will allow you access the nay part of the nand, like MFG

16:02.55drummer10630nay = any
16:03.46cr2_ok, that's a good reason to make the linux block driver work.
16:04.07drummer10630hee hee
16:04.09cr2_it should be dd if=/dev/mtd/* of=eeprom
16:04.10drummer10630yeah
16:04.34cr2_to override the stupid spl weirdness.
16:04.50drummer10630I'm such a novie linux user, I have more experience using MTTY with SPL
16:05.01drummer10630novie = novice
16:05.04cr2_it works on pxa272 and pxa263, so why not on s3c24xx.
16:05.12drummer10630( I cant spell tonight)
16:05.42cr2_i guess it's the s3c24xx mtd driver fault, but don't really have the expertise to fix it.
16:07.49drummer10630well unfortuntely for me, the only workaround at this point is the one I mentioned, and it requires the user with the good wlan and the user with the bad wlan to have MFG for the read/dump, and HardSPL for the flash
16:08.23drummer10630or buy a new motherboard...
