e5180 Huawei Cube (Mobily KSA)

[bumerz]

Hello dear friends ! Can you help me please ? I need Huawei E5180As-22 usbsafeE5180As.bin and E5180As-22.exe firmware Thx.

[robertblanco]

you can ask Valdemaras to convert a E5180As-22 firmware.bin to the dgtks format and try flashing with the huawei firmware writer from dc.

where did you get a e5180 .exe firmware file ? never seen any of those. send me the file and i try it with an e5180s-22 device of mine

[robertblanco]

the E5180As-22 should be nearly the same as the E5180s-22 device except of the special provider firmware, so the usbsafe loader should work as well.

try the gui version of balong usb downloader and have a look if the modem drivers switch from 1 to 2 in device manager. then afterwards flashing should do ok.

[robertblanco]

and of course you have to boot short first ... no led's should light on ... before using balong usb downloader

Hello!
Where can I find driver for it?
Thx
Steward

[bumerz]

USB driver ? for flashing ?

[Steward]

Finally, I unlocked it. But I hardresetted and I unpluged the power supply during the procedure. Now, only the lights are on, and the dc sw says

DC - Unlocker 2 Client 1.00.1396

Detecting modem :

selection :
manufacturer - Huawei modems
model - Auto detect (recommended)

Found Applications port COM279
Found Diagnostics port COM281

Device is in download mode, need restart!

What is now?

[robertblanco]

try flashing with the e5180s-22 firmware.exe

[Steward]

Where can I find this exe file?

an what does it mean?

"you have to boot short first, without external power and usb."

[robertblanco]

look at the attached picture above. connect the boot pin to ground e.g. with a tweezer with no power or usb. then connect insert usb - no lights should go on

check device manager if there is just one huawei modem entry - use balong usb downloader with the usbloader for the e5180s

[Steward]

Ok, I understand. But where can I find the needed files?

[robertblanco]

have a look at your private messages ...

[robertblanco]

balong usb downloader .... look at google

[Steward]

Thank you your uploading. Find the 2 photos attached. Nothing happen.

[robertblanco]

don‘t understand your problem

describe it. from the pictures i can‘t see what‘s wrong

in device manager the modem entrys are ok

[Steward]

The process stucks at this. I can't read what happen because of strange and unreadable characters. Nothing happens.

[robertblanco]

try flashing the device just using the flashing exe

[robertblanco]

or try using the reset pin hole (located near the sim card slot) in a 2 try - before flashing

[Steward]

There are 2 bin file in the sw folder? I choose the usbloader.bin, 30-40 minutes and the progress bar finished, but nothing signs me what is the next, finished, or something.

[robertblanco]

normally it takes just some seconds. and of course - just if the boot short method worked - no lights on and just one modem entry

you are not doing it like described. try reading carefully

don‘t know either - if it will work with such high comport numbers

try doing it on a fresh win installation
haven‘t even tried it on xp like yours

[Steward]

Ok, I already changed the pc, now the comports 10-11-12. If I choose the usbloader bin, it takes 10 seconds , and the progress bar ends, but after nothing. If I push "load" again then the progress bar starts again, and it takes 30-40. The question is, the total flashing process is only 10 second? What is about the larger bin file in the folder?
