Yocto 3.4: Bugfixes

This release is a flashable package based on the following repos:

COMPATIBILITY:

  • Pinephone
  • Pinephone Pro
  • Quectel EG25 based MiniPCIe cards (make sure you enable USB audio if you want to make a call)

ADSP Firmware:

Depending on your carrier, some firmware versions will work better than others. You can check your current ADSP firmware version by sending the "AT+QGMR" AT command. If in doubt, version 01.002.01.002 is the default if you used the recovery repo. I've been using version 003 for months without issues (and improvements in data handling) but some users have reported problems making VoLTE calls with it, so pick whatever works best for you (or don't change it at all if it worked fine before)

Flashing it:

  1. Open a root terminal and run: echo -ne "AT+QFASTBOOT\r" > /dev/ttyUSB2 to enter fastboot mode
  2. Run fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.ubi && fastboot reboot

CHANGELOG

  • Bugfix on custom alert tones, when the alerting indication comes more than once per call it would try to spawn a new thread while the previous was running, triggering a crash when trying to open the same PCM device more than once
  • Support for commands AT+DMESG (dump kernel log via serial) and AT+OQLOG (dump Openqti log via serial)

NOTES:

  • When using a Pinephone Pro, make sure you enable USB persist:
    • In /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/80-modem-eg25.rules
    • ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", DRIVERS=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", ATTRS{idVendor}=="2c7c", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0125", ATTR{power/persist}="1"

Inside the compressed tar file there's a file containing the SHA sums for the files included inside.

Installation instructions:

  1. Get required tools: you need adb and fastboot
  2. Grab a copy of the firmware, and, optionally, a recovery firmware (https://github.com/Biktorgj/quectel_eg25_recovery)
  3. Run the flashall script bundled in the package as root. If something fails, flash manually
  4. After you flashed everything, the modem should come back automatically after 14-18 seconds

Something went wrong?

CHANGELOG

  • Local / Custom alert tone support. If your carrier doesn't send a dialing indication tone in VoLTE you can enable this setting to have a tone generated for you (you can also customize it, instructions here
  • Cleaned up AT Command server, and added initial support for extended replies

  2. Run fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.ubi && fastboot reboot

CHANGELOG

  • Pinephone Pro: Fixed bug where external codec's PLL would always be set to 2048000 Hz instead of whatever was needed for the desired sampling rate. This removes the metallic sound when using rates > 8K
  • Pinephone Pro: Allow runtime sampling rate changing without distortion
  • Pinephone Pro modem codec support. If the external codec is detected, the firmware will autoconfigure it and set audio sampling rate to 48KHz, so VoLTE HD calls get the audio quality they deserve.
    NOTES:
  • When using a Pinephone Pro, make sure you enable USB persist:
    • In /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/80-modem-eg25.rules

CHANGELOG

  • Removed the debug message flooding openqti.log while suspended
  • I' ve spent 3 months chasing bugs everywhere to reduce the number of resets. While not perfect, static tests got me up to 700 suspend-resume cycles without getting a USB reset (then Phosh crashed forcing me to reboot), so definitely an upgrade over both stock and previous versions
  • Updated Yocto to version 3.4

This release is a flashable package based on the following repos:

Make sure you also:

CHANGELOG

  • EG25-Manager kills the modem when the serial AT interface doesn't respond in time. That seems like the missing puzzle piece to make the modem rock solid
  • Dirty re-register code has been added back, but now it doesn't trigger a port reset, it just silently closes the orphaned client connections and allows the host to proceed again. This brings reconnection times down from about 30 seconds to about 10.

Make sure you also:

CHANGELOG

This updated is a cleaned up version of 0.3.9 with all the fixes derived from the 0.3.9 a/b/c/d tests

  • Removed dirty re-register code from tracking
  • Max active clients set to 18. This allows ModemManager to be registered twice without being rejected by the modem. Enough to not cause too many problems, and should cut soft resets to half
  • Removed DTR monitor and rely only on current provided by the pinephone when deciding if transfers are available. This is much more reliable than any other tested methods
  • Remove LPM notifications to SMD
  • Removed some more LPM logging messages in the kernel that weren't needed
