HOW TO WORK WITH SEMC ODM PHONES

basics

semc odm phones divide on two big branch:

obsolete cheap phones,where each phone has own loader and approach
j110,j120,j210,j220,z300,k200,k220,etc

that phones not have anything common with semc structure.

and current generation, so-called S1 phones - they based on ti chipsets, st-ericsson (former philips) chipsets
j132,z320,t250,w302,f305,s312,w100,w150,etc.

that phones has good semc structure: color,cid (aid), signatures,etc

FLASHING OF SEMC S1-BASED ODM PHONES

1. select correct model
2. use com/ufs/usb as interface
3. check "signed mode"
3. add to firmware area needed firmware files
4. press flash

notes:
some old locosto s1 phones does not support usb as interface

if you want flash brown firmware or readout, step 3 will be:
3. check "signed mode","alternative security bypass"


about SEMC S1 ODM files structure:

1. neptune-based (w302,s302,f305) , ST-Ericsson-based (w100,w150)

firmware contain 3 required parts:

- main (ex: R1BA017_1207_9123_GENERIC_HS_YG_RED.software)
- fs (ex: R1BA017_1207_9132_FS_ADRIATIC_HS_YG_RED.software)
- customization (ex: R6A_F305_CDF_1215_9665__FS__Entel_PCS_CL.software)
you need flash all 3 files to get phone working with desired langugaes.

F305, S302, W302 SW flash should be done without memory card inserted.
If the memory card is inserted during flash the flash can fail.

If you encounter this problem,the phone does not startup correctly after flash, please wait 2-3 minutes
then reinsert the battery and start the phone again.
The phone should now start normally and the SW has been correctly updated.
Please note that the SW is flashed correctly and this will not cause any future startup problem.
