It comes as an installer application, which means you have to install the QFlash Tool on your computer to use it. Then, download and extract the tool on your Windows computer and run the setup file to complete the installation process.
It allows you to install or flash the stock firmware on devices running on Qualcomm Chipset. All you need to have is the correct firmware of your Qualcomm Device > Launch the Tool > Click on Load Content > Locate the Firmware on your computer > Click on Download Content to begin Flashing.
QFlash Application is compatible with all versions of Windows OS, including Windows XP to Windows 11 (x32 or x64 bit). If in case you were looking for the latest version of the QFlash Application, then use the following links to get it on your computer:
[*] Alternative Tool: We have shared a bunch of tools that also allow you to flash or install stock firmware on Qualcomm Devices. You can check them all from our Qualcomm Tool section.
Sorry to be a bother on top of it all but would you mind sending me the link to the qflash tool and if you do have access or resources the firmware for the
M95 FA-03-STD
M95FAR02A05 CHIPSET
SR:MP86610B6000959
I would like to know if there are command line parameters available for QFlash, so an automation of the flash procedure would be possible. In my opinion it is quite annoing over the gui, so it would be nice if there would be a way like qflash.exe com3 115200 mycfgfile.cfg
My thought was to use it as command line tool for a full fw update for a standard fw release from quectel like when i use QFlash tool - but this tool seems not very easy to do firmware automation durring manufacturing.
hi,
I am facing timeout error when I am trying to upload a program to my MC60 quectel module.
I am just trying to fetch data from a gps example code through platform io in vscode, but not able to upload it please provide any help or suggestions , Thank you
yes , to get the chip in to bootloader I have to fuse w1 together and its our own developed board using mc60 module, i have programmed it with q flasher official software but now when i am trying it with platform io its not uploading.
I am using a FTDI programmer YP-05 to upload the code in this module
Try commenting in that issue you mean, and use the QFlash application in the meantime. PlatformIO generates the firmware / program bin file in the .pio\ folder of the project, you should be able to upload that through the program.
yes , i am able to upload my program with qflash but not with platformio , but i can open serial monitor on platformio after uploading my program with qflash , this is strange just the upload function not working .
I have a cellular modem connected to my micro-controller that uses AT commands for setting up its network and publishing MQTT messages to a remote broker server. But doing so requires a sequence of about a dozen or so AT commands. I will post them below. Many of these codes are modem specific, but each distinct command terminates with \r\n when using a serial connection to the microcontroller.
After all of the configuration is done PDP context, SSL, MQTT, credentials the message can be published to the remote broker server. Unlike the other AT commands though the manual says enter the publish command which looks something like this to me:
then the command line moves to a new line. Then enter the MQTT message and press control+Z to send. I have verified this works when connected serially to the modem from my computer and using the modem manufacturer's serial connection software to send the AT commands. Their route does work inside their software (which doesn't require \r\n\ at the end of each command from the user).
So far all of my code works except when it's time to publish a MQTT message I just get "ERROR". I can publish when I connect to the modem directly and follow the manual's steps but just not with the micro-controller. Does anyone have any ideas on how to get this working?
Write your self a little program that reads characters from the Serial Monitor and prints their numeric value back to the Serial Monitor. Run the program and type control+Z then 'enter'. That should tell you the numeric ASCII code for control+Z.
Hello man, I was interested in this project since I am doing something similar but I am complete beginner so I wanted to ask you if you could send me the whole code of yours? So i know how to send the commands properly.
This is the function that I use to send AT commands and read the feedback. It is difficult for me to send entire code as it is full of ip addresses and other stuff. The function seems to work good for my use case.
Yeah I understand that. Thank you very kindly for this function tho. I have to send AT commands via Arduino to Quectel modul and use MQTT for data transfer in the end so this thread is very helpful. Also what exactly is Serial2? Is that a Software serial or what communicatiopn exactly is that.
Ah I see, it is very relevant then. I am using Quectel BG95 module. To answer your question about Serial2, you will need two serial connections. The first will be for display purposes, so you know what's going on, the second will be for sending commands back and forth. So in my case the main serial connection is the connection used for firmware upload. The Serial2 is a hardwired connection to different TXD and RXD gpios
Thank you for explanation. The problem is that I need to send AT commands via Arduino UNO to Quectel BC68 and I have only one Serial so I am using Software serial but I have already tried your function at it is working. Will also try something similar with the MQTT publish since I need to input Ctrl+Z as well. Anyways thank you once again.
I always use the latter the first I believe will require ctr+z. Also if you connect directly to the quectel module using their software tool (Qcom or Qflash can't remember the name) you will need to do the ctr+z
