Re: HG612 Firmwares [Aug 2014 - New HW version] (Updated 9 Aug)

Where can I download the latest firmware for openreach HG612 V100R001C01B028SP10? As mine is old firmware: A2pv6C030b.d22g

Please go to the very first post in this thread and take the link that Wolfy has provided.

Yes but wrong model version?

bcm96368MVWG_fs_kernel_HG612V100R001C01B030SP06_unlocked

bcm96368MVWG_fs_kernel_HG612V100R001C01B030SP08_unlocked

Mine is EchoLife HG612 Ver.B V100R001C01B028SP10_unlocked (need firmware with SP10)

Newer modem driver that potentially improves performance.

I had to try this out - it's added 3MB raw download speed to my connection, can't complain!

Many thanks!

I've updated my HG612 and stability wise it seems fine - though I seem to have suddenly developed a line fault today from about 13:30. Noise on the line - confirmed using the BT quiet line test via hard wired handset connected to the "Test" socket. Also my sync has dropped from a stable ~58Mb to a lowly 33Mb (User: Starman mydslstats) and I've got to wait until Monday for an Openreach engineer to hopefully do another pair swap like they did 18 months ago when this happened last time.

The only issue I've noted via the web GUI is the lack of a "Online Duration" in Status > WAN > Network, and "DSL Up Time" in Status > WAN > xDSL. Seems to be reported fine via telnet.

I wonder if Kitz or Eric would be able to split out the recent additions to this thread (which are straying away from the topic of Howlingwolf's firmware images) into a thread of their own?  :-\

Are we going to need a new HW firmware for G.Inp/vector support, or don't we know yet?

Hi guys.

I'm currently running the version ending SP06. What changes are in the SP08 version, and is it worth upgrading?

If I do upgrade, I've seen people mentioning not to upgrade it through the GUI. Can anyone provide a link to the proper instructions?

Thanks.

G.IMP is running on my modem now using the 08 firmware from Wolf. So i would say for G.IMP no :) (I posted my stats in the G.IMP thread in the news section)

Let me say this, once again! There are two separate types of firmware image. To flash via the:
  • Broadcom bootloader
  • GUI
The images provided by Howllingwolf and, previously, Asbokid are of the first type. Any attempt to flash with them via the GUI is a NOP (a no-op, a no-operation).

The proper instructions to flash the device with a different firmware image is exactly the same as that initially used to unlock the device. Just substitute the name of the firmware image that you wish to use for the name of the image in the above unlocking instructions.

Thanks 😊

I see people mentioning the SP10 firmware but on the repository I can only see the source code for that firmware. Are people compiling their own version of this firmware or is there a file?

Thanks

SP06 is the initial unlocked fw
SP08 is the later unlocked fw after Opernreach upgraded the fw
SP10 is the source released by Huawei and Openreach to satisfy Copyleft requirements
