Finding hardware revision
From Openmoko
For all methods, you will need to login via USB Networking or otherwise SSH into your FreeRunner, and find the hardware revision using one of the following methods:
/proc/cpuinfo
root@om-gta02:~# cat /proc/cpuinfo . . . Hardware : GTA02 Revision : 0350
The line that says "Revision" is the one you want. The "03" means it's a FreeRunner, and the "05" indicates the hardware revision, in this case revision 05.
Caution: may be wrong for hardware versions earlier than 05, or for u-boot earlier than about June, 2008.
Using libgsmd-tool
root@om-gta02:~# libgsmd-tool -m shell libgsm-tool - (C) 2006-2007 by Harald Welte and Openmoko, Inc. This program is Free Software and has ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY rv # # Get revision revision: "HW: GTA02BV5, GSM: gsm_ac_gp_fd_pu_em_cph_ds_vc_cal35_ri_36_amd8_ts0-Moko8"
FSO
If your are running fso, you can use mickeyterm and the at+cgmr command. Or you can use mdbus, like this:
root@om-gta01:~# mdbus -s org.freesmartphone.ogsmd /org/freesmartphone/GSM/Device org.freesmartphone.GSM.Device.GetInfo
The result will be something like this:
/org/freesmartphone/GSM/Device: GetInfo -> dbus.Dictionary({dbus.String(u'imei'): dbus.String(u'nnnnnnnnnnnnnnn', variant_level=1), dbus.String(u'model'): dbus.String(u'Neo1973 GTA01 Embedded GSM Modem', variant_level=1), dbus.String(u'revision'): dbus.String(u'HW: GTA01Bv4, GSM: gsm_ac_gp_fd_pu_em_cph_ds_vc_cal35_ri_36_amd8_ts0-Moko1', variant_level=1), dbus.String(u'manufacturer'): dbus.String(u'FIC/OpenMoko', variant_level=1)}, signature=dbus.Signature('sv'))
Where 'nnnnnnnnnnnnnnn' is you IMEI.
