[SOLVED]Exlink Failure
Posted: Wed Mar 13, 2013 9:56 pm
Hello
i made a Exlink cable using a TTL-232R-3V3 from FTDI Chip http://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Documen ... CABLES.pdf and considering the wire connexion
i did solder to get the result
meaning i put RX on 5 (yellow) and TXD on orange (4) and GND on 1 (black):
My soldering skills are not that good but i think its ok (gonna post a pic soon)
Once in a terminal i launch :
Terminal is waiting for text input or output.
Bad thing is that nothing is ever displayed ... whatever I shutdown and power on the tv terminal stay blank.
making short circuit between TX and GND while cu binary is waiting send plenty of ???0??????????? to the terminal.
I don't know if i have this cable working and cant have an exploitable debug output
by the way Debug mode for the RS232 port is enabled in service menu
I am tryng on a C series UE32C60000RWXZF but got same behavior on MD40B TV (LH40MEBPLGC/EN) (the model i definitely want to hack)
Could someone much more knowledgeable give me a hand ?
thx you
