now iam connected
what to do next?
installing the  new funnel cfe ? or first take out the ram and put the new 2x 16 mb in?

what is about the r317 r314 ...... soldering the points together?

so freunde jetzt habe ich das mit dem jtag und gleich mal versucht -backup:cfe hat geklappt

ihr müsst mir nur noch schnell erklären wie das genau geht
set sdram_init=0x0002
sdram_config=0x0033
sdram_ncdl=0x0000 (don't forget to commit)

oder muss ich das so eingeben
-flash:nvram set sdram_init=0x0002   ?

will nichts kaputt mach

oder gleich die neue cfe druf machen?

Please stick to English in this Forum!

You can flash the CFE using JTAG right away. Use the normal shell, or CFE commands to set nvram variables ("nvram set xxx=yyy"). After setting the variables enter "nvram commit" to save the settings.

/T

That are you mine? After CFE.bin flash i have no accsess to the router. i use jtag and tftp under WinXP. What ist dous mine CFE command? Help.

sorry for english

Please try the following

1. power down SE505
2. press reset button and power on SE505 (hold button pressed all the time for at least 15 seconds)

Doing this CFE will reset NVRAM to default values. Normally your SE505 should run now.

Do you have a serial console connected?

Funnel

I am so sorry. It is not your error. it is my. i have dd-wrt installed. and this not good for your CFE. Router have restarted every 2 seconds. Look at this(if it help)

but new CFE work and you are ROCK!!! i have Openwrt installed and it is work perfekt.

i installed this chips MT48LC16M8A2  -75 E  (16mb)

but they did not registered

i tryed an 8 mb chip from an old sinus 1054 and it worked good
now i have 16 mb

Hi run in some probs after upgrading the RAM.
I used one Hynix HY57V561620BT-H (4x4Mx16bit, from datasheet) to replace the original SDRAM chip.
After booting I just get 16MByte RAM.
Has anyone an idea?

I just soldered 2x32MB RAM to my SE505 and I got the CFE (ftp://funnel.homelinux.net/se505/cfe/cfez_64.bin) but I never found HOW TO flash it. So how to flash this CFE?

i manage to flash cfe using instructions on http://myantihero.net/openwrt/cfe.php cos standard HairyDairyMaid4.8 for win32 dont do the job ...
but fallowing the guide there was md5sum checksum error on my device ... i think it flash wrong (256kb wrt54g cfe vs. 128kb se505 cfe)
but wait ... connect your console and press reset and plug power cord and u will see (i hope:) )

now need figure it out how to boot my se505v2 without reset button... any clue?
maybe some environment variable was lost

my jtag works fine right now .Now need flash content :] any one have it ? e-mail me

I just soldered two Infineon HYB39S256160DT-8 / 16x16MB SDRAM chips to my SE505 and installed funnels CFE.
Works like a charm ...

sdram_config=0x0033
sdram_refresh=0x8040
sdram_ncdl=0x20541
sdram_init=0x0008

Welcome
Can someone help my?
I have chcip Hynix HY57V641620HG I want to add/replace this chip in siemens se505 v2?
It is possible?
What parameters (sdram_init, sdram_config sdram_ncdl=0) I must write to cfe?

Sorry for my English.

how can i modify your cfe's MAC address to my router MAC

(Last edited by muziling on 28 Jul 2009, 16:18)

Hi Funnel!

may i remind you of your promise? :-) I'd like to adapt the default nvram-values to my devices, so i will have to compile my own CFE. with the kernel 2.6 rising in openwrt, a reset to default values forces me to flash an old openwrt first to have nvram tools.

I would like to make a custom CFE for all of my se's, to have the maximum ammount of RAM an the right MAC-addresses hardcoded in the default nvram values...

hi
i have 2x m-tec tts7616b8e-6 from 4chip 128Mb TwinMOS SDR on my SE505v2 and i have problem getting it work @ 64Mb.Memory seems to be 16Mx16bit and i use funnel CFE
I dont have datasheet for this chip .Still i manage to get them working by using sdram_init=0x000A @ 32Mb
when i set sdram_init=0x0008 ,router wont boot.At sdram_init=0x0002 (funnel's default in CFE) i have 16Mb so seems it use both chips .Any clue? bad soldering (only single chip working) ? wrong memory organization ?

Hi axc27 and all the others,

I haven't visited this forum for a long long time (my SE505 is just running and running, no need for any kind of maintenance). From now on you can find my CFE patch here:

ftp://ftp.funnel.homelinux.net/se505/cf … _patch.tgz

I hope it's useful for you.

Regards
Funnel

Thaks for wyour work Funnel!

same applies to me: long time didn't modify my router, they are working like charm.
one is mounted on the roof of my house in an outdoor case giving me my internet connection with a 24dB Grid (32MB RAM),
one is playing lastfm streams allmost everytime i am at home (32MB RAM, USB audio and old 128MB USB storage as /, mpd and lastfm proxy)
and one did my my NAT-router (64MB RAM, old 128MB USB storage as /, usb-parallel serving my old laserjet and esniper with esf frontend) (exchanged two weeks ago with a WGT634U to have an atheros WLAN with multiSSID).
two of the running 24/7 without problems!

A few weeks ago i started playing with the se505 again and thought of building an individual cfe for them with the right default parameters.

I tried your diff against the siemens sources, but i get several rejects i cannot resolve myself... i took Release 3.02.03 and Release 3.01.05 (the content of 6the cfe folder is identical)
http://download.gigaset.com/repository/ … _02_03.tgz
http://gigaset.com/repository/1221/1221 … .01.05.zip
summarized on this site:
http://gigaset.com/shc/0,1935,hq_en_0_1 … rN,00.html

could it be that you made a diff aginst an laredy modified version?
I do not have a file cfe/cfe/include/nvram_default.h wich should be changed.
and in cfe/cfe/main/cfe_main.c i cannot find the position for the Hunks #1 to #3 witch fail... (actually i couldn't find the unmodified line " xprintf("Resetting NVRAM to default\n"); " in any file in the source...)
file shared/sbsdram.S also gives problems in Hunk #4, #5 and #7.

could you give me a link to the originalsource you made the diff against or make the diff against a fresh siemens source (link above)?

Thanks,

axc27

Hi axc27,

I created a new patch against a fresh installed se505_open_src_3_02_03.tgz, you can find it here:

ftp://ftp.funnel.homelinux.net/se505/cf … _02_03.tgz

I think this should work for you.

Regards
Funnel

Thank you very much, Funnel!

this one works perfectly, i just flashed my customized CFE!

now i do not have to reenter the macs after nvram reset.

axc27

hi funnel and axc27,
I tried 4 differents cfe's for my SE505's: the original one, the funnel one and others two (belkinFD7230-4 and BCRM947xx).
All the three originals ones detect 8M or 16M (8M+8M) and the yours only 8Mb every time.
I installed on board 32Mb as 16M+16M, and to see all 32Mb, I have to set "sdram_init=0x0008".  Every others wrong values I try to insert, they make the router booting with 8Mb of ram value.

Could it be possible to autodetect the RAM value?
I think about the situation when 2 months far from now or more I'll need to reset the router/routers and I'll have to mount the serial cable for change the sdram_init value (if I'll remember how to do it!!!) because with 8Mb the router won't boot with the most firmwares that I could install and I won't be able to set that value throught telnet or via command using the firmware pages because the firmware won't boot.

about funnel CFE:
I like very mutch the memtest command so I can be sure the RAM mod is working properly, but I don't like that it lacks of the tftp server so if I need to change the firmware because it can't boot I won't be able doing it (if the firmware don't boot for example);
the tftp server was very usefull in those situation and I really love it because the only thing I really need to be working, is the bootloader.
I'm speaking about a situation when I've not all instruments in my hands to repair it, so not serial cable, not jtag...and having the tftp working right, should be the best and simple way to repair a disaster.

I read about the patch but I don't understand how can I use it. Is it a patch to apply to the bootloader? Is it a patch to apply to the souce code? How Can I apply it? For people that don't know or isn't able to compile it, could it be possible that anyone of you, would do this for me/the comunity?

Hope to heard about you hearly, and hope not to have bottered you, asking you for support without say thanks to you before for your job: should be the first thing ever, also if I focused about the post about my trouble.
thanks for your attention.

hello funnel

I compile out file cfez.bin ,size is 116,407 bytes
but  funnel's cfe which download from ftp is 129,171 bytes

Am the reason is difference hndtools-mipsel lib ? I use version 3.2.3.

Hi muziling,

if you use a different toolchain than I'm doing you will most probably get a bin with different size. Just test it and see if it works.

Funnel

Could you please tell me, can I use J2 (TTL?) interface instead of J7 (JTAG) in order to upload CFE?
I overclocked CPU and it was epic fail for my unit. Now I can't boot. I don't have JTAG cable, but I can buy TTL-COM converter (based on MAX232 chip).
Siemens SE505 V2.
Thanks.

If you can't boot at all JTAG is your last chance. For me a unbuffered cable at parallel port works fine, all you need are 4 resistors.

Ok, tjtag utility now recognize Broadcom chip.
Could you please help me? What should I do next?

I downloaded original SE505 V2 CFE, but trying to backup mine at first.

And then stuck.
Is it normal that "Processor did NOT enter Debug Mode!"?
Or should I start -flash:cfe without backup?
