I would appreciate your understading on the quoted question.

Hello, here you go...

See that the .pdf attached is a little newer than yours. It shows that the flash loader tool uses .cla files to upgrade.

I have to tell you I can´t make it work, it always give an error after the message "Flash Loader downloaded in RAM". The error is "err 506", and I can´t find what it´s. Please let me know if it works for you !! Lucky for you...

Hello Coleagues,
I can finally make it work !! It was just a problem of data rate, it was selected "1152000" instead of "115200"....Unbelievable, but I have lost 1 day because of this !!

By the way, does anybody have a Firmware version "1137b07SIM900b32_ST" ?
 

Does anyone have this flash version:

1137B06SIM900D64_ST

Thanks.
 

Kosh - can you confirm the firmware rev please? There are no 1137B06... versions on the Simcom FTP site. They go from 1137B05.. to 1137B07...
 
I've got that version. Also got the B07 and B08 versions.

Thanks.
 

Hi fmp

on the Sim900 EVB there is a switch called "Download" which is in parallel with the PWRKEY. This must be on otherwise you get various errors including the err 506. See attached file SIM900-EVB_v1.01_DL.pdf. Basically just short the PWRKEY inpit on the SIM900 to ground while downloading.

I use Revision:1137B07SIM900M64_ST. I found on this thread. Before update sim900 is xxxxB05SIM900XXX_ST. I have 2 sim900 in this release. Other I not sure. It's waiting for process not on pcb.
After update, I can fix problem on AT+CREG to register sim to provider. Some time, On XXXB05 I wait 1 minute to register. I think, SIM900 found some problem. So SIM900 retry in 1 munute.
In my application ( prepaid mobile topup machine ) use 3 sim switch to SIM900 for 3 operator. It take many switch on/off. more many problem on new AT+CREG to register sim.
 

here is the version you need Chaltana. Please let me know if I can assist you further
