Hello,
I’m trying to upgrade the firmware of my EM05-CE module using the QFirehose tool, but I’m running into some issues.
When I run the command:
./QFirehose -f ./EM05CEFAR01A04M4G
I get the following error:
find_firehose_mbn fail to find firehose mbn file in ./EM05CEFAR01A04M4G
After checking the firmware folder, I noticed that it doesn’t contain the update/firehose subdirectory or the update/firehose/prog_firehose_xxx.mbn file. While I understand that the md5.txt check can be skipped using the -n option, the update/firehose/prog_firehose_xxx.mbn file is essential for the upgrade process and cannot be bypassed.
I compared this firmware package with those of newer modules, and it seems the folder structure for EM05-CE is quite different. This raises the question: is this really the correct firmware package for QFirehose?
I found someone experiencing the same issue here: Linux version of qfirehose · Issue #2 · nippynetworks/qfirehose · GitHub
So I’m wondering:
- Does this firmware require an older version of QFirehose?(current version QFirehose_Linux_and_Android_V1.4.21 and QFirehose_Linux_Android_V1.4.17)
- Or should I be using a different tool altogether to flash it?
Due to some environment limitations, I’m unable to use QFlash, so I’d really appreciate any help or suggestions you can offer.
