Flashing the Neo GSM modem

This is a Wiki that explains how to upgrade the GSM modem firmware of the Neo.

Hardware

And I thought that we were waiting on Sean to give mechanical legs to the Neo. I was so literally wrong !

System

They are closing in on a fix to the GSM-noise buzz issue on the hardware mailing list. This may make it on the A7 hardware revision.

The kernel guys are trying to switch from the "stable" to the stable-tracking branch, which is updated more frequently. [ http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/openmoko-kernel/2008-November/006238.html around Nov. 2nd]:

  • NAND/ECC kernel issues are supposedly solved by this patch.
  • Glamo GPIO not working on resume somehow leading to WSOD
  • warnings from WLAN driver about "warn_on_slowpath" are gone
  • breakage on Accel

replacement of the Atheros SDIO stack underneath the WLAN driver with the Linux SDIO stack is planned but not scheduled.
