Hi xthuan, OK, There are 2 lights: One that is steady red (pwr?) one that is blue and flashes approx. every 3 sec. What do they show? The blue light was at a time flashing rather fast. torben
so the gsm model which is paining me is on the picture
Heeey , i have the same module and i'm at the very early phase of wiring it to the PC to enable communication , have you figured out how ?

The red light indicates the power, and blue light stands for mainly for connecting actions -- e.g., finding network, sending data, etc.

A good news is that, your board is the regular GA6 instead of the GA6-B, which means, you can use the aforementioned tutorial to flash the GA6 module to aithinker-A6 firmware.

Hi, I have to connect hSerOut to U-TXD and hSerIn to U-RXD t make the AT commands work. Is that normal?. torben

Normally should be MCU_Tx - GSM_URx & MCU_Rx - GSM_UTx.
Helloo, did anyone happen to be using python to send AT-commands to the module through the usb-ttl converter ? if yes what library ? (windows OS) .thanks in advance
Also what IDE that i can use (if i'm not using arduino ) ,to configure the module with AT-commands ? through the usb-ttl .
Thanks all you Guys for this great info and Help
@xthuan GA6-B chip is not the same as GA6 Chip,
GA6: RDA88X9CL
GA6-B : RDA8955L
Hai, i tried to flash my IOT-GA6 using that Ai thinker tools but no port detected... i used the old tools and the new one, its just same... no port detected but in device manager my port actually detected ... and i can send AT command so i think my port just working fine, but why Ai Thinker tools can't detect my port? i used FTDI and USB to TTL, and the result is still same... Any Solution?
Hi everyone I'm new with this. Is there solution for this issue? my one is IOT-GA6-B and Ai-thinker can't find the port to communicate with the board. I'm using the following pins: HTX HRX GND VCC Tanks in advance.

Unfortunately still no solution on that. The GA6-B is quite problematic.

you may need to consider using another module like sim800 or sim900. I've done with GA6-B with no solution at all and change to another gsm module
Thanks very much
I’m giving up as well.

I managed to communicate with mine it might sound weird, but it worked for me; use; Vcc_in -----------------5v U_RXD --------------- RX U_TXD---------------- TX GND--------------------GND You might require ATCommandTester-master to track the baud
Thanks I’ll try

Hi everyone. Has anyone succeeded with GA6-B? I need to do a project with a GSM chip at 3.3v, already discarding SIM800L and similar boards. I was testing A6 from Ai-Thinker and it works correctly, but I need the MINI version. My supplier is only able to get this version of GOOUUU TECH and I am afraid that it will not work.
Unfortunately not a luck at all. I gave up. Bought this it works in UK without need of update.

Any success with GA6-B? I get AT OK , SMS Ready, CREG+ 2 then +3 but after 7-8 sec the module restarts with POWER_ON on terminal. Is there any solution? The LEDs dims from it full glow after initial 7-8sec. Any idea how to make it work? Will the 4700UF cap at the Vcc fix it, I read it someone had it fixed that way?
I know nothing about that module, but I know a smooth steady power supply can solve a huge number of issues.
I hope this will help someone.
I was struggling to get the TCP connection to work. Eventually I succeeded, here is what I did:
2 big problems are: spaces/whitespaces and newlines.... what a pain....
After sorting those out I was able to get my data sent to a php script I wrote to store the data.
I have included the code for an example testing_GPRS.cpp in a zip file included. It only uses SoftwareSerial.h testing_GPRS.zip
Hi Cale-Torino, Very interesting. I hope this can help with a project I've put aside and get it up and running. Thank you for sharing
Hi All, I am using GA6-B with pic16 mcu and I am able to receive the startup cmd from the module but when I reguest AT cmd or any other I don't get any response but echo of my request is seen on GA6 TX pin. I have tried the module on PC directly with FTDI and it respond as expected but not with the pic controller. I also tried using level converter from 3.7v to 3v but doesn't work (capture on TX pin of GA6-B) Please help if anyone knows about it.
ATE0 command had to be sent to turn off echo. Now it's ok.
Can anyone help me with iot ga6-b module? i dont connect what port of gsm go where in arduino uno? and what will be the code for this?? please help me....i have a project on password based door lock system with gsm... and i cant find any solution for it....please help @Cale-Torino please help me if u can....

Howsit, use this tester ATCommandTester to see if the module is working with the sim card. Connect TX,RX,5V,GND to a device like a FTDI FT232 Micro USB to Serial to communicate via the COM port on the computer. If it's working properly then go to these links below for more info:
Also since the COVID-19 nonsense I had some time to make a website for small interesting programs and projects etc. You can check it out at https://tutorials.techrad.co.za
I just add to it sometimes so it's not an official thing yet... maybe in future.

Brother, i have become succesful getting 2 light in the IOT GA6//1 light is full on and the other is blink in every 2 seconds///BUT i dont get any AT commend or response by it...what should i do for getting AT command?????i have try your code ...but not working.... @Cale-Torino my new connection Arduino uno <-> IOT GA6_b mini-GSM 5V(direct arduino uno r3) <-> VCC GND <-> G 13 <-> UTX 12<-> URX please response
iot ga6 b is a worse model...dont use it...i tried my best...but result no success at all...i buy sim900A now...so who ever read this topic...make it sure that its a bad model....for connecting with arduino uno r3
Hello. If anyone still has firmware from A6, please share, otherwise all links to the wiki do not work
A6_V03.03.20161229019H03.afw.zip
I have this version used on: Jun 2018
Thanks
Hello,
This not really an issue but a solution for these who bought IOT-GA6 from GOOUUU TECH. You could reflash the firmware with the AI-THINKER A6 firmware. I just do it and confirm this is working!
please look at:
http://wiki.ai-thinker.com
you will find tool and latest A6 firmware (use google translation if like me you couldn't read chinese!)
Have Fun!
