Pali | Jonni, how is flashing CAL handled in harmattan? | 00:06 |
---|---|---|
Pali | and also backup? | 00:06 |
Pali | via softupd? | 00:06 |
Pali | or has for it NOLO some OPCODE? | 00:06 |
Jonni | its only allowed if you have R&D cert by default, although there are ways around it- | 00:07 |
Jonni | but yes in doftupd | 00:08 |
Jonni | softupd | 00:08 |
Pali | Jonni, I'm asking because I'd like to know if it is also possible on fremantle n90 | 00:09 |
Pali | *n900 | 00:09 |
Pali | where R&D cert is not used | 00:09 |
Jonni | I dont remember the details but I believe that in fremantle you can freely copy and restore cal | 00:10 |
Pali | it is possible from working maemo system | 00:10 |
Pali | but is there way how to restore it if I damage maemo system? | 00:10 |
*** liar has quit IRC | 00:12 | |
Jonni | afaik in fremantle you can always load custom kernel and initfs and just dd cal back in place. | 00:13 |
Pali | Jonni, will NOLO load kernel if CAL is damaged? | 00:19 |
Jonni | Pali: nope | 00:20 |
Pali | so then it is not possible to restore damaged CAL | 00:21 |
Jonni | only thing that runs is the bb5signed ape-algo kernel, so you can only restore cal on harmattan if you have r&d cert | 00:21 |
Jonni | well I havent tested external flasher boxes, so it might be that some JAF flasher or somethings would able to do some deeplevel hacks, but I doubt it | 00:23 |
Pali | Jonni, I mean fremantle n900 | 00:24 |
Jonni | ah on fremantle flasher -l -b -k mostlikely works | 00:25 |
Jonni | and that way you can restore the cal | 00:25 |
Pali | also when cal is damaged? will fremantle nolo boot kernel? | 00:25 |
Jonni | I would assume that, but I havent played enough with N900 to be sure. | 00:26 |
Pali | ok, I do not want to damage it, but I'd like be sure that I will be able to fix any SW error... | 00:27 |

juiceme | Jonni, ping | 07:31 |
Jonni | juiceme: pong | 07:31 |
juiceme | about that flash_erase, since that is the most dangerous thing, do you think it is even necessary? | 07:32 |
juiceme | What if I just create an ubifs system on mtd4, without flash_erase | 07:33 |
*** suy has joined #harmattan | 07:34 | |
juiceme | If I remove that command from the instructions, so that people do not accidentally erase their CAL | 07:34 |
Jonni | have to do some experiments before I can say if its necessary | 07:36 |
Hurrian | juiceme, not really your fault if they aim flash_erase at mtd1 | 07:36 |
Hurrian | or, even more stupidly, flash_eraseall. | 07:37 |
juiceme | Hurrian, :( | 07:37 |
juiceme | but still, I feel responsible if somebody does it by accident. | 07:37 |
Hurrian | juiceme, well, Linux's flash layer will take care of setting bits properly, but it's always good to erase it just once, to make sure everything's in order. | 07:38 |
juiceme | and more, as Jonni demonstrated yesterday, if you have ubifs attached on mtd4, and do a flash_erase, it will can possibly blow your CAL even as you give the correct commands (there is a bug somewhere...) | 07:39 |
Hurrian | also, tell the guy who's getting -EPERM to run those commands under devel-su, and not opensh. | 07:39 |
Hurrian | juiceme: holy crap, why | 07:39 |
juiceme | Hurrian, read back yesterday night's logs | 07:40 |
Hurrian | that's gotta be a kernel bug, or you're not passing the MTD partitions to kernel properly | 07:40 |
juiceme | could be a bug in the handling of the secure areas of nand, it should be no way possible to override the read-only bits | 07:41 |
Hurrian | juiceme: NAND being read-only is an artificial limitation of NOLO, iirc. | 07:42 |
Hurrian | and it's RO only to the OS. | 07:42 |
Hurrian | you can dd kernels onto mtd2 (or was it 3)? | 07:42 |
Hurrian | but flasher refuses to flash kernels because of some silly flag. | 07:43 |
juiceme | yes. altough this opens up intresting (yet dangerous) possibilities... | 07:43 |
Hurrian | juiceme: such as wiping out the NAND entirely? | 07:44 |
juiceme | :P | 07:44 |
juiceme | No, I was thinking generally of overriding the read-only bits | 07:45 |
*** VDVsx has quit IRC | 07:45 | |
Hurrian | juiceme, iirc on previous experiments on the N900 where someone wiped CAL, as long as there's a kernel on-device it still booted. | 07:46 |
juiceme | Another thing I was thinking about, after this disaster with flash_erase | 07:46 |
Hurrian | Well, BT and WIFI MAC addresses were wiped, but it boots. | 07:46 |
juiceme | Hurrian, N900 might be a differnt beast, maybe the bootloader works different way | 07:47 |
Hurrian | juiceme: maybe NOLO crashes because it can't properly read the ConF entries for serial number etc. to be passed to the kernel? | 07:47 |
juiceme | But, what I mean, maybe I should try to make the ubiboot loader start not from ubifs, but from initramfs. | 07:48 |
Hurrian | juiceme: and where do you put this initramfs? | 07:48 |
juiceme | That was my original goal, but it has some drawbacks, like not havin persistent storage | 07:48 |
Hurrian | juiceme: is the MOSLO partition on the N9 blanked? | 07:49 |
juiceme | so boot.conf at least needs to be stored on mmcblk0p2, for example | 07:49 |
juiceme | Hurrian, I would put my initramfs on mmcblk0p2 | 07:50 |
Hurrian | I thought an advantage of ubiboot was 'set it and forget it'? | 07:50 |
Hurrian | You could wipe the entire eMMC, and reflash from ubiboot, not ever touching Flasher again. | 07:51 |
juiceme | Actually I only need to change the command line parameters of the 1stboot kernel to load up the initramfs, like from /boot/ og mmcblk0p2 for example | 07:51 |
Hurrian | juiceme: it should probably be an option for users. | 07:52 |
*** juergbi has joined #harmattan | 07:52 | |
juiceme | Hurrian, set-and-forget, yes, but when you need to change kernels for example, you need to edit boot.conf | 07:52 |
Hurrian | Flash a kernel that loads from eMMC, or a slightly more bulletproof one that loads off mtd4. | 07:52 |
Hurrian | juiceme: emergency kernel could be stored on a different dir on ubifs, and points to mmcblk0p2 with init=/sbin/preinit | 07:53 |
juiceme | The only problem about using mtd4 is the flash_erase, I would not wish anyone to end up like Jonni with their device. (for most people it is their only N9...) | 07:54 |
Hurrian | With that, and a bz2 of Harmattan root stored, it might be possible to make "Downgrade disallowed" irrelevant. | 07:54 |
Hurrian | juiceme, about that, the mtd layer should probably be checked for bugfixes integrated in newer kernels. | 07:55 |
juiceme | Hurrian, now I get what you mean :) | 07:55 |
Hurrian | because I'm pretty sure that's a bug. | 07:56 |
juiceme | It's highly likely. somehow the flash_erase command leaked over the partition boundaries, something that should not ever happen. | 07:57 |
Hurrian | yep. | 07:57 |
*** emong has joined #harmattan | 07:59 | |
*** lmoura_ has quit IRC | 08:03 | |
Jonni | it might be that I still was on secure mode when I did flash erase on mtd4, maybe I should have triggered open mode first and then do the commands | 08:05 |
Jonni | as in openmode cal would have been better protected | 08:05 |
juiceme | Had you recently reflashed your device to factory settings? | 08:06 |

Jonni | juiceme: and that experimented failed as this devices mtd4 is readonly, most likely too many ecc errors have triggered ro bit. There is a reason why mtd4 was not used in final product :) | 10:00 |
juiceme | Okay, seems I need to create another option at least for the people having difficulties with mtd4 use. | 10:01 |
Jonni | ie I would prefer seeing ubiboot version that uses mmcblk0p3 as exporting that partition is not that important, its enough to export 1,2,4 | 10:01 |
juiceme | That would most likey be creating a initramfs based version, booting off a file on mmcblk0p2 | 10:02 |
Jonni | well that works too :) | 10:02 |
juiceme | well yes, that is the other option. | 10:02 |
juiceme | so there are three alternatives to do it :) | 10:02 |
juiceme | as the whole bootFS is only 14MB, it can be put to a lot of places :) | 10:03 |
Hurrian | juiceme: one more alternative: appending an initramfs onto the kernel image. | 10:03 |
juiceme | Hurrian, that sounds nice also, but it would then be stored on NAND also, right? | 10:04 |
juiceme | is there space enough to do that? | 10:04 |
Hurrian | juiceme, but it'd be flashed once using flasher, which is known to be bretty safe | 10:04 |
juiceme | true | 10:04 |
juiceme | Jonni, Yesterday you told me that CAL is mtd2, but that partition is labeled as "kernel" | 10:05 |
Jonni | cal is mtd1, I just tupoed | 10:05 |
juiceme | if it is so, where is the kernel stored? | 10:05 |
Jonni | mtd2 is the kernel | 10:05 |
juiceme | ah, thouhgt so :) | 10:06 |

thedead1440 | the open mode issue is basically when using N9QTweak and installing unrestricted system-ui and the related applets, the app would close after maybe 2 or 3 applets being installed | 15:09 |
*** SfietKonstantin has quit IRC | 15:09 | |
thedead1440 | this is mainly due to a soft refresh (restarting of status bar) being conducted by either N9QTweak after each applet's installation or for some applets its in their postinst to do a soft refresh | 15:10 |
*** wirwe has quit IRC | 15:10 | |
thedead1440 | the same thing when done using inception tends not to exit mid-way thru the installation process hence the myth that open mode is the cause for app crashes | 15:11 |
*** jluisn has quit IRC | 15:12 | |
thedead1440 | around 1.5-2.5months ago this issue was solved in N9QTweak but again re-introduced as the solved method didn't work always. N9QTweak simply does dpkg -i /path/to/deb for each applet so its the unrestricted sys-ui and the frequent soft refreshes to blame instead of open mode /per se/ | 15:12 |

Hurrian | oh, on an unrelated side note, it seems that the failed writes to CAL area are likely related to WiFi radio adjusting parameters. | 15:29 |
ladoga | i learned it from some random post by hurrian. I actually thought removing aegis mounts was merely cosmetic | 15:30 |
thedead1440 | Hurrian: didn't know that. Btw does 1 bad block in mtd4 swap mean anything? My dmesg gives: "mtdswap: Enabling MTD swap on device 4, size 422144 KB, 183 spare, 1 bad blocks" | 15:31 |
Hurrian | thedead1440: meh, usual life of a NAND flash. | 15:31 |
Hurrian | got one on my N900, zero on my N9 so far, but I have ECC corrections every time I attach mtd4 to ubi0. | 15:32 |
thedead1440 | Seems its time to retire this N9 :( | 15:32 |
Hurrian | thedead1440, not so fast. | 15:32 |
thedead1440 | Hurrian: my power button is really unstable; moving the phone a bit and it reboots | 15:33 |
Hurrian | wow. | 15:33 |
Hurrian | It shorts the button for that long? | 15:33 |
thedead1440 | that's the one i was referring to above; the repair shop says S$120 to fix it when i bet he knows shit about it | 15:34 |
Hurrian | thedead1440: you may, in the future, due to swap, burn out the area occupied by mtd4, but everything /should/ still work. | 15:34 |
thedead1440 | i printed the whole service manual (levels 1,2,3) and took for his reference too but bloody fsker wants $120 | 15:34 |
Hurrian | thedead1440: the part to be replaced probably isn't worth US$5. | 15:34 |
thedead1440 | exactly | 15:34 |
thedead1440 | Doc says its most probably just requiring a cleaning of dirt/dust | 15:35 |
thedead1440 | hmm i wonder if rd-mode allows the disabling of power button functionality | 15:35 |
*** wirwe has joined #harmattan | 15:35 | |
Hurrian | thedead1440: disable the button in board config | 15:35 |
thedead1440 | in /etc/mce/mce.ini ? | 15:36 |
thedead1440 | i disabled it there | 15:36 |
thedead1440 | but when in LPM it toggles the lockscreen and still switches off | 15:36 |
Hurrian | No, in the kernel's config. | 15:36 |
thedead1440 | oh how do i do that? | 15:36 |

thedead1440 | Hurrian: adding twl4030_pwrbutton to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf is sufficient right? it seems not to work now :D :D | 15:55 |
Hurrian | It's sufficient. | 15:55 |
thedead1440 | thanks for this idea ;) now its not too urgent to get it repaired :D | 15:55 |
DocScrutinizer05 | disabling hw powerbutton completely doesn't work | 16:02 |
DocScrutinizer05 | if system/kernel ignores powerbutton completely, standard hw shutdown function will kick in afaik | 16:03 |
Hurrian | DocScrutinizer05, well, it gives thedead1440 around 5 more seconds before shutdown is initiated. | 16:04 |
*** trigpoint_n9___ has quit IRC | 16:04 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | otherwise no way to powerdown/reset a hung system | 16:04 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yes, that's true | 16:04 |
Hurrian | instead of the roughly 2-3 seconds press needed to shutdown Harmattan | 16:04 |
*** trigpoint_n9___ has joined #harmattan | 16:04 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | hw shutdown is 8s iirc | 16:04 |
DocScrutinizer05 | but honestly I wonder if that helps | 16:05 |
thedead1440 | so even if the module is blacklisted it still can reboot? | 16:05 |
DocScrutinizer05 | hw shutdown is sw independant | 16:06 |
Hurrian | thedead1440, if the OS doesn't explicitly prevent TWL4030 from shutting down, yes, but it'll take a longer press on the button to shut down. | 16:06 |
thedead1440 | now can the OS explicitly prevent it other than blacklisting the module? | 16:06 |
thedead1440 | s/now/how/ | 16:06 |
infobot | thedead1440 meant: how can the OS explicitly prevent it other than blacklisting the module? | 16:06 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yes, it can reset the timer before it expires | 16:06 |
DocScrutinizer05 | sort of watchdog | 16:07 |
thedead1440 | hmm so a watchdog monitors the twl4030_pwrbutton and resets it every few seconds? | 16:07 |
DocScrutinizer05 | you press and hold powerbutton -> 8s timer starts -> when exoirng, it does hw shutdown | 16:07 |
DocScrutinizer05 | sw can reste that timer | 16:08 |
thedead1440 | yup just tried it; it restarts with a 8s press | 16:08 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it can reset but not stop / disable it | 16:09 |
thedead1440 | how would the reset occur? | 16:09 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I2C command to twl4030 iirc | 16:09 |
DocScrutinizer05 | done somewhere in kernel | 16:10 |
thedead1440 | is there some kind of command for it? something that while sleep 7; do xxx; done can monitor? | 16:10 |
thedead1440 | oh i2c; so i would need i2ctools? | 16:10 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yep, probably | 16:10 |
DocScrutinizer05 | though I guess the kernel driver for hw powerbutton will lock that addr on i2c-bus | 16:11 |
DocScrutinizer05 | so i2cset can't access it | 16:11 |
thedead1440 | DocScrutinizer05: is there any way to assign the power button's full functionality (incl 8s turn off) to one of the volume keys? | 16:12 |
Hurrian | thedead1440: you can assign the OS-level function, but not the 8s shutdown. | 16:15 |
thedead1440 | Hurrian: i assigned the vol up for unlocking the screen but yeah the 8s turn off is the main thing | 16:15 |
DocScrutinizer05 | thedead1440: no, probably not | 16:16 |
Hurrian | thedead1440: try your N9 out for a day, and see how often it restarts with an 8s timeout for shutdown instead of 2s. | 16:16 |
DocScrutinizer05 | since 8s off is a function in tel4030, not in CPU | 16:16 |
thedead1440 | Hurrian: will do that; hopefully i get a capable repair shop tomorrow. Will go to Nokia Care too just in case they are of some help | 16:17 |
thedead1440 | hmm even though i added twl4030_pwrbutton to blacklist.conf it still loads at boot-up. | 16:20 |
Hurrian | thedead1440: rm the module ;) | 16:22 |
Hurrian | Replace it with a 0length file. | 16:22 |
thedead1440 | i did a modprobe -r on it for now | 16:23 |
thedead1440 | if its fixed tomorrow i'll need it again anyway :D | 16:23 |
*** hardaker has joined #harmattan | 16:23 | |
*** Morpog_Mobile has quit IRC | 16:24 | |
thedead1440 | thanks to you and DocScrutinizer05 :) | 16:24 |
DocScrutinizer05 | 2s, 8s. Seems not much difference for a hw problem | 16:25 |
thedead1440 | yup but it now needs to be pressed in for 8s. its not pressed in that bad. anyway i'll see if someone is charging a reasonable amount to open and clean it otherwise i'll give it to nokia care who'll most probably take 2-3weeks | 16:27 |
Hurrian | thedead1440: don't shut it down by pressing for 8s, that's a forced shutdown, and may corrupt your FSes. | 16:28 |
Hurrian | If you've got unrestricted systemui, just install the power button applet. | 16:28 |
thedead1440 | Hurrian: yeah i don't require shutdown anyway. I did the test just to be sure if it does shut down that way. I've the power applet and of course shutdown -n is good enough | 16:29 |
