Hi everybody!
I have a Simpad SL4 and I installed the Ångström Distribution with opie on it.
I want to install more software like a webbrowser, but there is not much space left on the flash memory. I found on opensimpad.org that it is possible to upgrade the flash.
Is there anybody who has upgraded the simpad to 64 MB flash? Does it work?
Where can I get a compatible flash chip for my simpad to upgrade it?

Hi, did you try out to remove your home parition [1]?
It should be possible to get the chips at memphis.ag. They can find a matching chip for you.
The main problem is that you need to rewrite some stuff of the bootloader. There is some code for the adresses of the chip. Maybe you also need to change a line or two at the kernel -I cannot remember and have no source to look at here
If you get the prices for the chips please post them here.
An alternative would be the mmc/sd mod, but the driver for it is currently broken
I hope I will find some time to make the mmc/sd mod and for looking at the source
best regards
mr nice.

I wrote a mail to memphis.ag and from there I got a datasheet about compatible flash chips.
The 256 mbit flash chips are known as JS28F256J3D-95
I ordered 4 pieces at www.conrad.de as special order. They are trying to get the chips somewhere. It could take 4 weeks ago.
When I've more information I'll report!

Hi Burn
did you ever remove some smd chips? I have read different upgrade actions ... simpad and asus wlhdd ... any all of them are note very happy of there work ...
Heating is difficult to remove old ones and never the less it is to add new chips inside :-) ... hope to her of you with a positve feedback and happy smile :-)
Now I got my sd cardslot and bt module for trying to add it to my simpad :-) ... doing some pictures if its ready ...

Update:
Conrad could not make me an offer for the chips, but I found them at digikey [1] for 23,79 € for one chip and I ordered and got them! :-)
Next step is to remove the old flash chips. This could be very difficult for me, but I will try it!
I'll report when it's done.

Hi Burn,
good luck ...

Hey everybody,
I did it!!
This weekend I upgraded my Simpad to 32 MB flash. You will find a (german) report and pictures on my blog (http://www.normen-huehn.de/2009/08/simpad-mit-64-mb-flash-speicher/).
But now, after installing the Siemens Bootloader with the JTAG tool, I've a problem with upgrading the bootloader. After powering on the simpad, the serial console shows that:
PBL V2.4 20.07.2001
Booting internal PBL image...

[/ ]
The slash is turning round, but nothing else happens. I can't upgrade the bootloader with serload. Has anybody an idea what I've to do?

Hey,
I think I was a little confused. I would upgrade the flash to 64 MB not to 32 MB. So something other must be wrong
At this time: Upgrade failed. But I don't give up!
So long,

Hi, you can flash this [1] hh.org bootldr. You are right in your blog the jtag tools are only capable to recognize one chip. urjtag [2] can use both chips. the hh.org loader has hardcoded addresses to use the second chip. so you may not be able to use bootldr to flash an image but you shuld be able to boot a kernel from an cf card. or flash the image with urjtag. but it may be neccessary to update the adresses in bootldr an kernel.
best regards

btw. because of university stuff i am not able to read the forum frequently. but i can try to help a bit but cannot promise

Hey mr_nice,
with urjtag the command "detectflash" needs a parameter. I can use detectflash 0 and detectflash 1. Only 0 and 1 work, some other numbers gives an errors, so I think the output is for the first and for the second flash chip

Done.Urjtag knows the Chip! "28F256J3A" The other jtag tool only said "Chip: Unknown (0x1D)!"
After flashing the bootloader there is this output on the serial console:

hm, the good news is you can flash the flash now. the bad news bootldr cannot handle it :/
i don't know what is the latest version of bootldr for the simpad I once saved this one [1]
Slims and I tried to port uboot [2] [5] and redboot (Slims alone) [3] [4] to the simpad but both are not stable but maybe easier to patch for you.
For all 3 you will need to write a patch for the flash.
uboot is the most common on other devices nowerdays.

Exciting stuff!

Status report: after some problems installing a cross compiler to build a new uboot bootloader, I did some compiling tests. But at this time my selfmade bootloader doesn't work.
After pressing the power button on the simpad, the background-light of the display shortly lights up, but there is no output on the serial console.
I don't give up!

hi,
In theory you should only need to replace [1] those lines (simpad.h).
#define PHYS_FLASH_SIZE 0x02000000 /* 32 MB */
#define PHYS_FLASH_BANK_SIZE 0x01000000 /* 16 MB Banks */
#define PHYS_FLASH_SECT_SIZE 0x00020000 /* 128 KB sectors */
here [2] is a short description about how I build the loader a year ago
happy hacking

I updated the U-Boot loader. This should autodetect FLASH and RAM size. Current GIT is on:

Thanks for the update
Do you have a simpad with the a flash mod?
I hope I find some time to test the loader (currently uni is eating all my time )
If you like to further hack at the uboot front - adding some wake up code would be awesome!

nice you did a kernel update
I realy hope to be able to find some time to test it :/
Did you try to sleep/wake up the simpad with uboot?

jochen, it seems that your u-boot image works also with my flash upgrade!

jochen, it seems that your u-boot image works also with my flash upgrade!
Great. Except for the "too many flash sectors" error. I'll have a look if this limit can be raised using the config options.
But it would be to easy, so there ist directly the next problem: I think, that one or both of the RAM-Chips are damaged
I think this might be an easy one. The DRAM refresh parameters are set up for a (fixed!) 32MB RAM size. It seems to work for 16MB as well, but definitely not for 64MB.
I guess the read errors are from a non-refreshed DRAM line. So this refresh parameter setting needs improvement (possibly a dynamic setting based on the probed RAM size).
Thanks,
Jochen

Thanks for the update
Do you have a simpad with the a flash mod?
I hope I find some time to test the loader (currently uni is eating all my time )
If you like to further hack at the uboot front - adding some wake up code would be awesome!
Finally, I had some time hacking on this again. Suspend/Resume is functional right now.
Thanks,
Jochen
