Subject: Video: how to upgrade your IOIO to support Bluetooth

I made an instructional video to walk through the upgrade process required
in order to enable Bluetooth on your IOIO!

Access from this page:
https://github.com/ytai/ioio/wiki/IOIO-Over-Bluetooth

or directly from YouTube:
http://youtu.be/eUKAPP63QtU

Please try to watch carefully and read the page above before asking any
questions. If something still doesn't work for you, I'll be happy to help.
Note that this is *potentially not the final release*, as I'm not 100% done
testing. See the "Caveats" section on the page above in order to adjust
your expectations. However, this release is *probably in pretty good shape*.

I agree. There currently isn't.
I chose to publish a video first, as it is more accessible to many people,
required less work for me, and will probably generate less questions :D
But I do plan to add a written guide on that same Wiki page soon.

HI Ytai,

I tried to follow your video, but I keep seeing the following error message:
The attached IOIO is running a application firmware version that is not
compatible with the programmer. Expecting version IOIO0200 or higher.

I am using one 3-month old IOIO board that is never upgraded as the
programmer to program a new IOIO board I ordered few days ago. Any
suggestion for me to proceed the firmware upgrade or any information I need
to look into?

Thanks a lot!

Subject: Re: Video: how to upgrade your IOIO to support Bluetooth

You first need to upgrade the application firmware on your "programmer
IOIO". This is done by downloading the App-IOIO0300 application firmware,
starring it, and power-cycling the programmer IOIO. The yellow LED should
light up for a little longer than usual and then everything should work.
However, as I mention on the video, some Android devices which have been
messed around with by the OEM or the carrier do not handle this function
(application firmware programming) well. If this is your case, try to get
your hands on another Android just for this specific part. It is a one-time
process (until the next time there's an app-firmware upgrade).

Subject: Re: Video: how to upgrade your IOIO to support Bluetooth

Hi Ytai,

I was very excited to see the bluetooth capability demonstrated. I ordered
two more IOIO boards (now I have 3) a new bluetooth dongle and decided to
replicate your results. My setup is identical to yours right down to the
Parrot AR Drone battery :). Following the video step-by-step everything
went very smoothly. I connected the new IOIO, it recognized the board
(everything green), then wrote and verified the firmware.

The problem I'm having is that the board doesn't seem to have anything on
it afterward. When I reset the power and plug it the USB connection on the
phone, logcat doesn't report any usb/adb connection. It appears to be dead.

When I re-wire it back up to the programmer IOIO, it recognizes the board
again (everything is green again) and once again I can write and verify the
firmware update without issue. I've done this several times have tried
writing all 3 bootloaders but none seem to show any signs of life.

Do you have any suggestions for what I can try to bring the IOIO board back
to life.

Needless to say I never got bluetooth working.

I haven't tried the 3rd IOIO board for fear of cooking it as well.

Thanks for your assistance. I think you're doing an incredible job on the
hardware and supporting and building the IOIO community. Great work!

- James

Hi James,
This may be a result of using the wrong firmware version.
Make sure you use the Boot-0300-App-0310 bundle.
Reset the programmed board after programming. Disconnect it completely from
the programmer, power it and connect it to the Android. Notice whether the
charging icon and/or the debug icon on the Android turn on. Also notice
what's happening with the yellow LED on the IOIO.
Let me know the results and we can continue to investigate.

Hi Ytai,
I tried again and got it working. As it turns out, it was the power
adjustment screw on the IOIO board. It was turned too low.
When I connected the updated IOIO to my phone and slowly turned up the
adjustment, the USB/ADB lit up on the phone and I was in business.
From there I was able to plug in a bluetooth dongle and pair the IOIO
with my phone. I tried 3 different dongles and they all seemed to
pair.
I'm a bit embarrassed that I didn't think to try that before. I never
had to touch the charging adjustment on my original IOIO board.
Thanks for your help. This should be fun.

Subject: Re: Video: how to upgrade your IOIO to support Bluetooth

In your video you connect programmer 38 to target 38, programmer 37 to
target 37.

On my pair of first-gen sparkfun boards (chip id 128) this results in
"unknown target connected".

Going from this post:
https://groups.google.com/forum/?pli=1#!searchin/ioio-users/bootloade...

I connected programmer 38 to target 36, and programmer 37 to target 35.  It
now detects the target properly and can program the firmware.

I'm not sure where the discrepancy lies, but hopefully this can help other
users.

Both should work (assuming, you also connection programmer 36 to target
mclr too).
Chances are that you have wiring / soldering problems. Is that possible?

Used the same wires and flashed in both directions (dev1 flashing dev2,
re-cable, dev2 flashing dev1) with no problems on 36,35.  I get "unknown
target connected" for 38,37 with programmer hosted on either device,
switching the RST pin of course.

Solder joints all look clean, whacked them with some flux and reheated them
to be safe, and since dev1 and dev2 work reflexively it wouldn't indicate
to me that they have an electrical problem - if 37/38 were bad on one
device I'd expect it to fail when acting as the programmer.

These are from the very first run of sparkfun pre-order boards.

Strange... AFAIK, SparkFun themselves use pins 38/37 for programming. But
anyway, can't argue with the fact that it solved your problem...
Thanks for sharing this info, maybe there's something I'm overlooking and
this will help others fix a similar problem!

I don't mean to sound like I haven't read the IOIO wiki because I have read
just about every page. Do I absolutely need 2 IOIO boards, PIC programmer,
an android device, bluetooth dongle, and a computer to acheive bluetooth
functionality? Could it be done with one PIC programmer and 1 IOIO?

Sorry if that wasn't clear:
You need *either* a second IOIO *or* a programmer. So it seems like you are
good to go.
Download the hex bundle from the Downloads page, use SPRK0015 or 16
according to your board , connect the programmer (mclr, 3.3V, GND, 38, 37)
and GO.

Subject: Re: Video: how to upgrade your IOIO to support Bluetooth

Hey Ytai,

Because I have an HTC Thunderbolt, I borrowed my wife's HTC Evo 4g and
successfully ran the HelloIOIO app via USB so I know her phone works. But I
want to put the bluetooth firmware on the IOIO so I bought another IOIO. I
successfully flashed the new bootloader app onto the 'programmer' IOIO. I
know this because I first flashed the Blink app and when I flashed back to
IOIO0300, the blinking stopped.

Here's where things start to go wrong. If I have my phone plugged into the
IOIO via USB, I hang after selecting '>Programmer>Select'. However, if I
unplug the phone, I can hit 'Select' and select the
'Boot-IOIO0300-App-IOIO0310' app and I select 'Sprk0016'. I then plug the
phone back in and it just hangs on 'Waiting for target'. I'm assuming I
shouldn't be unplugging my phone at any point during this process but the
IOIO Manager app just hangs if I don't.

Not sure where to go from here.

   - I've uninstalled and reinstalled all of the QR Code files as well as
   the IOIO Manager.
   - I've also made sure that the pot is turned all of the way up on both
   IOIO's.
   - One IOIO is powered by a 5v wall wart while the other is powered by a
   9 volt battery.
   - 38 > 38, 37 > 37 and 36 to target mclr (reset)

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Eric

"Waiting for target" is good. It means that IOIOManager was able to
communicate with your programmer IOIO and is waiting for the target IOIO to
be connected.
Did you remember to share a common ground between the IOIOs?
Also, better power them from the same supply, just in case both supplies
don't get along.

Thanks so much for the quick reply Ytai. I got one of the two working at
least through USB. I'll do the same process tomorrow morning for the other.
There's something I probably missed on that one. I can't get the bluetooth
working though; I'm banking on my BT Kensington Dongle. It's pretty old (
+2 yrs) and may not be 2.0. So tomorrow, I'm going to see if I can track
down one that you recommend and see if that works.

Thanks again for your time. Very much appreciated.

BTW, since you are able to program, my current recommendation is to use the
release candidate firmware. It looks pretty good and I'll soon release it
officially.

Hi Ytai,

I am facing similar problem: "waiting for target". I waited for some
minutes but nothing happened. My IOIO bootloader is 0100 and firmware 0300.
I re-installed the IOIO manager and re-filled the library. The blink
bootloader worked fine. I used Galaxy Tab 10.1 (Honeycomb) to program it
(before I used Froyo 2.2 but hang).

Do you have any suggestion?

Thank you in advanced.
