Die Erstellung des 7170 Alien Firmware für 7112 klappt, aber nach dem Flashen macht die Box ein Dauerreboot.

Das Draufspielen eines 7113 Firmware auf 7112 funktioniert hingegen einwandfrei. Hier sollte man jedoch ein Patch anbieten, dass die Festnetztelefonie verschwinden lässt, da die 7112 nur Internettelefonnie kann.

Die .config fehlt. Aber auch mit der wird dir vermutlich keiner der Entwickler helfen können, weil keiner so eine uralte Hardware hat. Musst du selbst rausfinden, woran es liegt. Dies zum einen durch den Vergleich der original-Firmware mit der alien-Firmware - vielleicht wurde was übersehen. Und zum anderen anhand der Einschätzung wie weit die Box beim Booten kommt, dies anhand der Zeit bzw. LED-Verhalten.

Bootet ca. 65 Sekunden, bevor es neu startet und WLAN-LED ist auch an.

@Sebijk:
I'm not sure, what's your native language, if you're really from NZL ... that's why I'll write in English to avoid misunderstandings.

If you try to read #152 (comment) yourself, do you notice something?

If not, a little hint: No-one wants to READ the content of your .config file in a comment, at least that's not the primary intention / usage.

What do you think, is the usual way to deal with a foreign .config file? Correct ... it gets downloaded to the own system and gets viewed with some kind of text viewer program or even with mconf, which is the whole magic behind make menuconfig.

But how could anybody download YOUR .config file from the comment above? Do you really think, someone would use copy & paste to get the content from your comment to an own text file?

Short: Please consider to edit the comment above once again ... remove the "inline configuration" and attach a file version of this data.

To attach a file, you may drag & drop it to your input area or click on "selecting" on the footer above the "Comment" button to get a "select a file to attach" dialog.

But the file can't be "hidden" - that means, it's name is not allowed to start with a dot and therefore you have to rename your .config file first - best use config.txt as name.

Hello,

i put the content in a file.

I found out, that problem is only when i choosed the international version. If i choose the german version, it works. But the german version support only Annex B.

Are you sure, that your device was set to the correct branding (usually it's avme for the international version) prior to next reboot, after you've installed the new image?

If the device starts without problems using the german version, it usually has a "branding" (value of firmware_version from the "urlader environment" - may be read with GETENV command from FTP session) of avm or 1und1. The latter is more expectable, 'cause the 7112 was built (afaik) only as an OEM version for the german provider 1&1.

If you want to install a firmware with a different branding, you have to set the right value in this environment accordingly.

If you're steadily switching between avme and avm during your experiments and you did not mention it in the problem report, simply forget this hint.

Yes, i changed that also to avme.
