Issue #StatusSubjectModuleSubsystemWinCE OS

V4.6 (Release date: 2018-03-08)
The version 4.6 contains only one change in the bootloader, see issue #34332 below for details. The change is related to initial production programming at the factory only and doesn't affect normal usage. The WinCE image and BSP were not changed and therefore not rebuilt for 4.6. They stay at 4.5. Customers can continue to use their tested bootloader and image version as the issue fixed in 4.6 bootloader isn't critical and doesn't have any affect in normal boot mode.
WC-1230FixedBadBlock detection during initial production programming takes too longColibri PXA320, Colibri PXA310, Colibri PXA300 XT, Colibri PXA300BootloaderCE5, CE6

Description: The bootloader contains code which is used during initial programming at the factory only. In this code there was a bug which could have lead to timeouts during production depending on the content of the flashes coming from the flash manufacturer. This bug was fixed in the bootloader 4.6. This change doesn't have any impact on normal boot behavior and only changed the behavior during a special test mode during initial programming at the manufacturer.

V4.5 (Release date: 2015-06-19)
- WinCE 5 Updates: Installed Microsoft CE5 Updates until 2014M07
- WinCE 6 Updates: Installed Microsoft CE6 Updates until 2014M07
WC-1217FixedMAC Address and HW Version get overwritten by the UpdateTool in BSP V4.4 on Colibri PXA3xx modulesColibri PXA320, Colibri PXA310, Colibri PXA300 XT, Colibri PXA300ConfigBlockCE5, CE6

Description: A bug in Kernel V4.4 leads to overwritten MAC address and hardware version settings in the config block when using the UpdateTool to restore the config block. This is normally done, if you use a complete Flash backup to clone the Colibri module SW configuration in production process. Having modules with the same MAC address is only a problem if you are using these devices in the same Ethernet network.

Workaround: The following article describes the problem in detail and provides various solutions: http://developer.toradex.com/knowledge-base/colibri-pxa3xx-bsp-v4-4-update-tool-issue

V4.4 (Release date: 2015-04-14)
- WinCE 5 Updates: Installed Microsoft CE5 Updates until 2014M07
- WinCE 6 Updates: Installed Microsoft CE6 Updates until 2014M07

Description: The output sampling rate changes to 48KHz after a suspend resume cycle and could only be changed after a sound has been played.

WC-1268FixedDebug Message Buffer feature causes issues in Suspend/ResumeColibri PXA320, Colibri PXA310, Colibri PXA270, Colibri PXA300 XT, Colibri PXA300KernelCE5, CE6

Description: When the debug message buffer was enabled, which is the case by default, a freeze was possible after about 10 to 30 suspend/resume cycles.

Workaround: For BSP versions older than V4.4: Disable the debug message buffer in the registry (DbgMsgBufSize=0) see Debug Message Buffer description for details http://developer.toradex.com/knowledge-base/enable-the-debug-messages

WC-1266New FeatureRtcSync: Integrate latest RTC Sync ToolColibri PXA320, Colibri PXA310, Colibri PXA270, Colibri PXA300 XT, Colibri PXA300RTCCE5, CE6

Description: Add support for ST M41T00S RTC chip. Call SignalStarted API when done.

WC-1264New FeatureAdd Support for Spansion NAND FlashColibri PXA320Bootloader, Flash, KernelCE5, CE6

Description: Add support for the Spansion 8GBit NAND flash device. This flash could be used in the future as a replacement for the currently used Samsung Flashes. A PCN will be sent out to customers once we need to do this step.

WC-1263FixedImprove ConfigBlock concept and use a second copy of it in order to avoid config lossColibri PXA320, Colibri PXA310, Colibri PXA270, Colibri PXA300 XT, Colibri PXA300Bootloader, ConfigBlock, KernelCE5, CE6

Description: The config block could be lost if extensively used. This issue has only been seen at one customer so far and in special test-setups. We will use a second back-up copy of the config block in order to avoid the loss.

WC-1260FixedSDHC Card Detect bug with registry setting CardDetectGPIO=-1Colibri PXA320, Colibri PXA310, Colibri PXA270, Colibri PXA300 XT, Colibri PXA300SDIO/SD/MMCCE5, CE6

Description: The SD/SDIO registry setting CardDetectGPIO=-1 (card always inserted) didn't work.

Workaround: For BSPs older thatn V4.4: Use an unused GPIO for CardDetectGPIO and set it to the desired value by software in order to always detect an attached SD/SDIO card.

WC-1244New FeatureUse UpdateTool V5.8.0 with Support for new Spansion FlashColibri PXA320, Colibri PXA310, Colibri PXA270, Colibri PXA300 XT, Colibri PXA300FlashCE5, CE6

Description: The new RAM used on Colibri PXA270 V2.4C modules needs a different drive-strength setting.

Workaround: For customers using bootloaders older than V4.4, the settings can be adjusted in the config block. Please refer to our knowledge base article about this change: http://developer.toradex.com/knowledge-base/colibri-pxa270-v2-4c-ram-drive-strength-settings
