there are two HW revisions for wlan and BT. so it looks you have the newer already. different FW file is needed and 'patchram' needs one more parameter when loading firmware. we were discussing it with Rabeeh on IRC so try IRC log.
@belese
here it is http://server.vijge.net/static/cubox/irclog/201404/cubox-20140424.html . search for 'patchram'
so currently we miss 4330 firmware which needs to be loaded the same way as for 4329, but with addition of parameter "--enable_lpm"
when you try and confirm it, I will add to kernel package.
ok so i only need to test with patchram and kernel parameter, i believe i have to recompile the kernel. will try soon, when my pc resurect.
Edit : i've tried also with bcm4330.hcd as it should be, but result is the same as below. as i've a 4330 :
cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc0/mmc0\:0001/mmc0\:0001\:1/device
0x4330
i've tried this command
xbian@cubox ~ $ sudo ./brcm_patchram_plus -d --patchram /lib/firmware/brcm/bcm4329.hcd --baudrate 3000000 --use_baudrate_for_download /dev/ttymxc3 --enable_hci --enable_lpm
option patchram with arg /lib/firmware/brcm/bcm4329.hcd
option baudrate with arg 3000000
option use_baudrate_for_download
option enable_hci
option enable_lpm
/dev/ttymxc3
writing
01 03 0c 00
writing
01 03 0c 00
and it loop always like this. i've downloaded the file from your post on cubox-i forum (first post link)
maybe related to this thread? http://archlinuxarm.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7042&p=39946 i'm on Linux cubox 3.10.30+ #468 SMP Thu Jun 5 14:31:18 CEST 2014 armv7l GNU/Linux
@belese
by default there is patchram process started from JOB module-init-tools (currently for 4329 rev). have you killed that process before you tried changed parameter and another FW file ?
@belese
and this has nothing with kernel itself. you don't need to recompile. patchram binary is the same, only should be called with that parameter as addition to the parameters for 4329.
and of course you should not use /lib/firmware/brcm/bcm4329.hcd but /lib/firmware/brcm/bcm4330.hcd
Hi i didn't stop the service, but i kill the process, i see of course my error, and use the bcm4330. but with no luck. i've tried a lot of solution yesterday. None was working, will try to change the job to load the 4330 intsead 4329.
ok i manage to make it work, (but kill process is no suffisant, i need to comment line in job file) with this command :
brcm_patchram_plus -d --patchram /lib/firmware/brcm/bcm4330.hcd --baudrate 3000000 --use_baudrate_for_download /dev/ttxc3 --enable_hci --no2bytes --enable_lpm --tosleep=50000
and after hciconfig device up
will do a push request later, they have a auto detect script on arch linux, will adapt for xbian.
this work on command line but if i change line in job file with mine it doesn't work, i've no time now to check more, but when i check log, seems thes script is run more than one time. will look deeper later
patchram process needs to stay running in the background. it is not simple one-shot FW uploader.
I added auto detect (based on /sys/devices/soc0/soc.1/2100000.aips-bus/2190000.usdhc/mmc_host/mmc0/mmc0:0001/mm c0:0001:1/device) and moved FW loading to "imx6-bluetooth" job (part of kernel package). you can try installing linux-image-3.10.30-armmp ver 1.0.8 ?
(btw: is in the command "/dev/ttxc3" a typo or correct? the usual is "/dev/ttymxc3" and I changed to that - adapt and let me know if necessary).
I let patchram running in background, i've done many test, and create a job file just for test. (who run patchram and some bt command)
i can reproduce the problem easily, j just add a sleep 5 between patchram and next command, and it'll finished in timeout. if i add sleep 2, command work (but next one will be in timeout too)
of course /dev/ttxc3 is a typo, i tried with the pull request i submit, and a special job file to test.
will try with kernel you mentionned.
i've tried with version you have mentionned, i've seen your script, but it's the same problem.
i've done some search, and have seen this problem reported. and not sure someone has a 4330 working, i don't remember to have see a report for a working 4330. i've play a bit with the tosleep, because some time with it, the command just after (i the 5 sec) goes in timeout too, but sometimes it's ok. without the otpion tosleep, first command (in that 5 sec) work all time i've done the test (but require a reboot each time, so it's looong to test).
but don't find anything.
something cut bt after 5 sec, as before everything i've test work (make discoverable, scan)
as the 4330 add bt4 support who is low power, is it not possible there's something that put bt in some kind of sleep, i don't find something like this but i don't know enouqh about linux low level
jump to IRC and approach JNETTLET or RABEEH

it's fixed, i just try the last cubox image, and bluetooth was working. at least for bcm4330.
the problem looks like this one : http://imx.solid-run.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=461&start=10
