Compatibility HP un2400 Mobile Broadband Module with CF-19 MK1

Hi All,
I want to know if it's possible to use Qalcomm (T77Z039.01 LF REV:08L9) HP un2400 Mobile Broadband Module in my Panasonic CF-19EH203TW (MK1) OS Windows SP3.

If yes let me how to do it , the driver i should install , the dip switch configuration ...

Thanks for your help.

Best regards

 

Very doubtful without a lot of work. I never had any luck with anything other than a Panasonic one.
Spend the extra and get one from a Panasonic.

 

Hello,

See my other thread related to PID/VID values. All Gobi 1000 and Gobi 2000 modules are in terms of hardware the same. The only difference I saw are the related NV Items. So change them and make the card usable for the OEM you need or change it to Generic Qualcomm one.

 

Link to other thread please.

A clarification from my side not to have confusions/interpretations between readers:
Gobi 1000 modules are all the same just with a different PID/VID and some have also the manufacturer values also different.

Gobi 2000 modules are all the same just with a different PID/VID and some have also the manufacturer values also different.

The NV Items I described in the other thread can be changed. After change the modules will be recognized correctly the the respective laptop vendor.

I hope I described it correctly

 

Just to assist others, Can you list some of the tools and maybe a very basic instruction set on how to edit the NV values?
Just trying to keep it simple as in the future many, many of these questions will be ask over and over.

 

Hello Shawn,

NV Items can be edited on all Qualcomm chips, it doesn't matter if the chip is in a phone or modem.
Editing NV Items can also bring some new frequency bands or other features which were disabled by the vendor, like GPS for example.

Main tools for doing this are the official Qualcomm tools QPST and QXDM but also you can find many cellphone repair shops on the internet selling different flashing boxes and dongles that can repair/flash/read/write the Qualcomm chips.

There are no free tools as far as I know to do this so you need to find a friend/colleague/shop that can help you or you can buy them from the vendor directly. NOTE: Editing the NV items can brick the device if it is done wrongly. If it is a modem is not a big deal since they are cheap but bricking a new generation phone will be costly.

You can read more about NV Items for Qualcomm chips on the xdadeveloper's forums.
Let me know if you need more details.

Regards

 

Hello Shawn,

BTW: The same fix can also be done on the wifi cards. The difference between wwan and wifi is that wwan is using USB bus and the wifi cards the pci/pcie bus.

On the PCI/PCIe bus you have a VID/PID but also a SUB-VID/SUB-PID. I saw different combinations when VID/PID is the original vendor and the OEM is the SUB-VID/PID but also sometimes the VID/PID equals SUB-VID/PID.

For example the intel wifi cards in laptops have the VID intel and SUB-VID HP/Lenovo/etc.

So there maybe a way but if it's going to cost to have it done then it's best to look for a Panasonic one. I have seen them for $20-$40.00 .

 

That's true. The idea is to re-use the hardware if you have it since it is the same just with a small sw modification. Telco providers have the tools I mentioned so if you know someone with access to those tools you can have the values replaced for your Gobi modules.

Apart from the old Gobi 1000 and Gobi 2000 you can have the new LTE capable modules. Not sure if they can work in core 2 duo CF-19 and CF-30.

Those modules can be modified via AT commands to match the VID/PID with your laptop OEM.

I am taking about the new Sierra Wireless EM/MC77xx modules.

Below is the example with the sequence to adapt the values. I couldn't find the same for the old Gobi modules. If someone has access to the AT commands of the old Gobi modules maybe there is a way to do it without commercial tools I mentions.
ATI
AT!ENTERCND="A710" -->> A710 is the default password in case it was not changed but from my experience it is the same on different OEMs
AT!UDINFO?
AT!UDVID=ABCD
AT!UDPID=EF12,EF12
AT!RESET

I don't have any MC77xx to check if they work in the CF-30 and CF-19 but if you have access to one you can try it.

Panasonic VID/PID can be seen in the .INF driver files or if the module is from another OEM you can change it at least to the Generic Sierra/Qualcomm values.

Hello all ,
Thank you all for your answers.
so if i understands the Qualcomm card is not compatible with my CF-19EH203TW (MK1) OS Windows XP SP3 and I need to make some software modification.
please give me the exact model of Mobile Broadband Module that can walk on my CF-19EH203TW (MK1) OS Windows XP SP3 . Thank you.

Actually Card

Will this help (Gobi 1000 and Gobi 2000 AT commands)?

I'm using DFS CDMA Tool for my modems/phones. It's free for home users.

 

Hello

Thanks for your help but:
Did you have tutorial to make it because i don't understand how to make it , i should modify what exactly.

thanks

 

How do you communicate with modem/diagnostic device when the drivers are not installed or can't be started?
I understand it that way you have to install Lenovo Gobi modem into the compatible Lenovo laptop, unlock it with AT commands and install to Panasonic. Right?

 

Hello BaRRmaley

I haven't LENOVO Laptop , I directly insert the modem in Panasonic CF19EH203TW and try to install Gobi 1000 driver.

I need a tutorial for unlock the modem.

Thanks

 

This is something we don't have. Our members use the one made for Toughbooks only. I know other brands are cheaper but they just don't work. As Shawn said in his first post buy a Toughbook card. This question has been asked many times since I have been a member here...almost 7 years and it always comes down to buying a Toughbook card.

 

Hi toughasnails
Well noted ,

Please give me the exact characteristic of the WWAN card a should buy for my Panasonic CF-19EH203TW MK1 with XP Professionnal SP3

I don't want to face this issue again.

Thanks for your feedback.

Best Regards
