Current GSM firmware version can't make reflashing harder (was: Re: [QTE 4.4.3] Determining which version of GSM firmware I have.)

If you really used the recommended way (ROM bootloader, no flow control), then i see no reasonable way (except magic) how a particular firmware version can cause problems for reflashing. Moreover, if you were able to downgrade, you could have upgraded just as well. So, to me both the wiki report as well as your words look like the result of some misunderstanding, not as a description of an existing issue. -- Be free, use free (http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html) software! mailto:fercer...@gmail.com ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

[QTE 4.4.3] Determining which version of GSM firmware I have.
Hi All, I am currently running QT Extended 4.4.3 and I was wondering how I can determine which GSM firmware I have? I read that moko11 is the appropriate version to use. I don't actually have any echo problems but I thought it prudent to run the latest GSM firmware but first I want to see what I have.

Please have a look at: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/GSM/Flashing The page describes how to check if the update went fine. That prints the current firmware version string.

Re: [QTE 4.4.3] Determining which version of GSM firmware I have.
It did for me - absolutely refused to upgrade in every way I tried until I downgraded (as per the wiki page) and then the upgrade worked fine. This happened with moko10 and trying to upgrade to moko11 - yes doesnt make sense, but the fact I ran into it, and the wiki page had a fix that specifically mentioned it means its a real problem.

Re: [QTE 4.4.3] Determining which version of GSM firmware I have.
I have just upgraded using the sd card method from moko10 to moko11 without issues on both my brother's phone and mine, so maybe it's some sort of corner case W.Kenworthy escribió: It did for me - absolutely refused to upgrade in every way I tried until I downgraded (as per the wiki page) and then the upgrade worked fine.
