Please help me compile u-boot support 16MB flash for Dlink DIR 615 E4
I find DIR 615 E4 orginal source form here . https://www.dropbox.com/s/qu8gcm2uoq2lb … 512.tar.gz
Toolchain: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qsy5om9jj8mq2 … olchain.bz
http://texnikk.blogspot.com/2014/02/dir … b-mod.html
Thanks in advance
Help me please
Why do you think you need custom u-boot? Normally, OpenWRT supports 16M flash out of the box. Have you tried it?
U-boot, however, will probably only "see" the default 4MB, so if you want to be able to write over 4MB with u-boot, then you need to modify it. But that should not be necessary to run OpenWRT.
I use flash programmer ch341a, i back up full 4MB flash, then i put in to 16MB, i type command df -h, it show not enough 16MB. Could you help me
As far as I understand, you had OpenWRT on the 4M flash, you copied that flash contents to the beginning of the 16M flash, and soldered it in. Not ideal, but could work in the end. I hope you have the 4M flash backup somewhere, you need the ART partition (your router is Atheros, right?)
Would you post the output of
df -h
cat /proc/mtd
dmesg | grep "0x00"
or perhaps
dmesg | grep "\""

Thank you very much your answer. Yes, my router is atheros. I will post output on tuesday.

Yes, it true, my 4MB flash is mx25l3205d. I replace with winbond 16MB W25Q128FVSSIG, OS cannot detect enough 16MB, it still 4MB.

The kernel log that you posted -- was it with the original 4MB Macronix flash, or your new Winbond flash? If it was with the original flash, then post a log with the current Winbond flash.
yes the kernel log i posted was the original 4MB Macronix flash.
The winbond kernel log is here

...This is different from my tp-link atheros based devices, where the command line is simply ignored.
So indeed you need to modify u-boot. Cannot help you here, sorry. I don't have any such device. And the info on the (russian) site http://texnikk.blogspot.com/2014/02/dir … b-mod.html is, let's say, not particularly user friendly. (Yet the patches there still hint at what has to be changed in u-boot code.)
Incidentally, you seem to be using some custom OpenWRT build. Maybe stick with a standard build (AA or BB RC3 at the moment).
Thank you so much your reply. I will use usb for more storge

Isn't the link to the uboot available on the site?
Isn't the link to the uboot available on the site?
yes, uboot have on the site, i flash on my 16MB flash, but can not boot. I use flash programmer.
I had a tp-link this is how I upgraded to 16MB without moding uboot.
Backup the art.
Copy the entire 4MB inage to disk.
Flash the inage to 16MB chip.
Compile a 16MB image unprotect art
Flash the sysupgrade using web interface.
The art will be missing.
mtd write the art to flash do not reboot.
flash the 16MB image with art protected.
I also have tp-link wr740n, I upgrade to 16MB flash very easy with CH341A programmer.
Please help me compile u-boot support 16MB flash for Dlink DIR 615 E4
I find DIR 615 E4 orginal source form here . https://www.dropbox.com/s/qu8gcm2uoq2lb … 512.tar.gz
Toolchain: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qsy5om9jj8mq2 … olchain.bz
http://texnikk.blogspot.com/2014/02/dir … b-mod.htmlThanks in advance
Help me please!
Loader here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/lnn7jqueytwlx … 4M-RAM.bin
(from http://texnikk.blogspot.com), flash it in u-boot partition.
http://texnikk.blogspot.com/.
Thanks him so much! I successfull ugrade 16MB flash for Dlink DIR615 E4.
I flash loader using SPI flash programmer then:
1. Connect to router's UART through Windows Hyperterminal.
2. Then boot to "ar7240> " prompt. Here you should type "loady" command.
3. Then in Hyperterminal menu you should choose "Transfer," and then "Send File." Choose openwrt image. Select Protocol = Y-Modem. Press "Send".
4. Wait until file transfeer will be completed
5. In bootloader prompt issue "erase 0xbf050000 +0xFA0000"
6. In bootloader prompt issue " cp.b 0x81000000 0xbf050000 <size_of_firmware>"
7. Reboot
