Update firmware tool for EG800K module on Linux

Hi,

I am looking for a firmware update tool for the EG800K-EU/CN module for Linux (working on Raspberry PI). To upgrade the module via UART or USB (preferred). I found on this post
Updated firmware for EG800Q? the QDownloaderProj for Linux, but it seems to be more for the EG800Q module.

The question is, can I also use this tool for the EG800K module too? If not, can you provide me sources to another tool?

Best,
Sev

Thanks Herbert to pointing me the the QDownloader,

As far as I can see you need to provide a BIN/PAC file, in the latest firmware package I got (which is a ZIP compressed file) contains various files. There is a file named “firmware.bin”, is this the only file I need for upgrading?

What are the other files for?

  • bootloader.ubi
  • cp.bin
  • download.json
  • dsp.bin
  • EG800KEULCR07A05M04.json
  • firmware.bin
  • flasher.img
  • flashinfo.bin
  • fota.json
  • fuse.dat
  • partition.bin
  • preboot.img
  • ReliableData.bin
  • rf.bin
  • system.img

What also brings me to the question, is there some tool for Linux (like QFlash for Windows) which is able to flash the whole ZIP file for the EG800K?

@herbert.pan-Q is it also possible to get the latest source for Qflash-tool for Linux, regarding to the manual which can be found in the Quectel Download-Section?

I have sent you the user manual of QDloader via email. It is recommended that you refer to the manual document first
