iOS Baseband Tools

https://github.com/posixninja/BBTool
https://github.com/posixninja/DLOADTool
https://github.com/posixninja/DBLTool
https://github.com/posixninja/iOSUSBEnum

Description:

These are just some little tools I made for interfacing with the Qualcomm baseband in iOS. They should work on iPhone4s and iPhone5 (although I've only tested them on iPhone4s CDMA).

Setup:

To build these tools you need Xcode with the iOS SDK, and iOSOpenDev installed and setup (http://www.iosopendev.com/). In the terminal switch the each directory and type "xcodebuild" to build the tool.

Usage:

Before you can use any of the tools (other than iOSUSBEnum) you should first upload CommCenter so it won't interfere. First SSH onto the device and type the following command to unload CommCenter.

launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.CommCenter.plist

Once CommCenter is uploaded you can type "iosusbenum" to verify that the Qualcomm baseband is no longer showing up in the device list. Since the baseband no longer has any internal flash to store the baseband firmware, all the firmware is located on the device filesystem. To access these firmware files you first need to unzip them. To do this type

(for 6.x)
cd /usr/local/standalone/firmware/Baseband/Trek
unzip Trek-personalized.zip

(for 5.x)
cd /usr/standalone/firmware/Trek
unzip Trek-personalized.zip

After the firmware has been unzipped you'll see a few different files. The important ones are bbticket.der, dbl.mbn, osbl.mbn, and amss.mbn. Next you need to use bbtool to tell the device to enter DLOAD mode (basically baseband's bootrom or DFU mode). Type

bbtool enter-dload

You can then verify the device has entered DLOAD mode by using "iosusbenum" once again, you should see something like this.

Device Name: QHSUSB_DLOAD

Product ID: 0x9008

Once you've verified the baseband is in DLOAD mode you can then just DLOADTool to boot the device into DBL (or SAH) mode. Depending on where your baseband firmware files are at just send the following command.

dloadtool -f /usr/local/standalone/firmware/Baseband/Trek/dbl.mbn

You should see a bunch of send and recv messages followed by "Closing Interface". Now the device should be in DBL mode. You can verify this by using "iosusbenum" once again. You should see output that looks similar to

Device Name: Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM
Vendor ID: 0x5c6

			Length: 0x7

			Max Packet Size: 0x200
			Interval: 0x20

Now that the device is in DBL mode you can use DBLTool to continue to boot the baseband up to it's normal operating mode. To do this you must pass the path to bbticket, osbl, and amss into DBLTool using the following command.

dbltool -b /usr/local/standalone/firmware/Baseband/Trek/bbticket.der -o /usr/local/standalone/firmware/Baseband/Trek/osbl.mbn -a /usr/local/standalone/firmware/Baseband/Trek/amss.mbn

You should see a bunch of send and recvs once again followed by "Closing Interface". AMSS usually takes a little while to load, but after about 10-20 seconds, you can verify the baseband has fully booted up without the help of CommCenter by using "iosusbenum" once again. There are a bunch of interfaces in AMSS mode, but you should get output similar to the following.

There you have it. You've successfully used the tools to boot up the baseband without any help from CommCenter. If you want to shutdown the baseband again or if you had problems during any of the steps just use "bbtool reset" to reset the baseband and try again. I will try to finish up my QMITool and DIAGTool for sending commands to the baseband shortly as well as documenting what each interface exposed by AMSS is used for.

Thanks for the interest!!
