Pinout of laser driver for CPRI SFP+ module – GN1157

Posted on October 15, 2022 by Kamil (aka. v3l0c1r4pt0r)
semtech gn1157

On one of the usual sources of weird electronics I came across quiet unusual SFP+ module and could not resist buying it to see how it works. For now I was unable to make it work, but at least I made few photos of its internals. It turned out its main part is obscure chip made by Semtech and described as GN1157, which serves as laser diode driver. Obviously obtaining datasheet is impossible even in China. However, thanks to being able to see the board, I was able to reverse engineer some part of its pinout. Continue reading “Pinout of laser driver for CPRI SFP+ module – GN1157” →

Peugeot 407 rain sensor pinout

Posted on August 3, 2020 - August 3, 2020 by Kamil (aka. v3l0c1r4pt0r)
Paugeot 407 rain sensor

I had a project in mind featuring rain sensor, present in Peugeot 407 car, among others, probably. However, reality is that it is on my todo list for years now and I don’t think I will do it ever. But, I already bought the sensor in the past and it was lying in my drawer. So why not to disassemble it and figure out the pinout.

Identification

To be precise in what I am talking about, here are some magic values, I know about this thing:

  1. Manufacturer: Bosch
  2. Part number: 1 397 212
  3. Another number: 96 524 903 80
  4. Peugeot part number: 6405 CW

New VCI+A-BT (DS150E) ST-Link pinout

Posted on August 7, 2019 - August 8, 2019 by Kamil (aka. v3l0c1r4pt0r)
DS150E

This device could easily be found at the Chinese sellers. They advertise them as DS150E. Under the hood there is nice STM32 and STM8 pair. One is present on main PCB (in my case TCS MAIN V6.0), the other on relay board (TCS+RELAY V3.0). Both chips have their ST-Link headers broken out. If one want to read/write the firmware installed in internal flash, it should be as easy as connecting few of these pins. Continue reading “New VCI+A-BT (DS150E) ST-Link pinout” →

UART pinout for noname spy camera

Posted on November 3, 2018 - October 6, 2019 by Kamil (aka. v3l0c1r4pt0r)
HD camera

HB-WIFI-Z6 - front
Front side of the main board

As I wrote few months ago, I bought tiny WiFi camera, advertised as a spy camera or nannycam. This week, I decided to work on the topic a bit. However, due to some serious failure, I alarmed on Twitter, I was not able to connect to its WiFi hotspot anymore. Therefore I had to use UART to recover it from backup. Below you can find parameters needed to connect to this cam. At first however I want to present any identification numbers, that might be useful to confirm it is the same device, as it has no real name.

Identification

HD camera - overview
Device overview (rubber package already stripped from PCB)

As can be seen in picture on the right, the device consists of main PCB, camera with tape cable, battery pack and optional USB cable for charging. To be able to reach UART header, I had to strip the rubber package from main board. Below I was able to see two identification strings:

  1. HB-WIFI-Z6 – this is most likely the name of the board, unfortunately neither Google or even Taobao does not know it
  2. MS-ME198407 – this is very interesting, as it seems to mean some internal name of laptop computer (don’t know who is the vendor)

Furthermore on camera tape there is one more magic string – HY-OV9712-6. After first dash it seems to be oh – not to be confused with zero). How do I know it? Because OV9712 is model name of camera optics made by OmniVision and it more or less matches the parameters of the camera.

Last batch of IDs is, at first processor name and vendor, which is quite unusual at least outside China – T10 made by Ingenic, which appear to produce MIPS cores and dev boards for it. Also I can see in logs the board should be called ISVP, which is not necessarily true – see Google. At last cpuinfo says that system type is mango, which appear to be fairly common in cheap Chinese cameras. Continue reading “UART pinout for noname spy camera” →

[Import]Airlive WN-151ARM UART pinout & root access

Posted on September 4, 2017 - September 7, 2017 by Kamil (aka. v3l0c1r4pt0r)

NOTE: This post was imported from my previous blog – v3l0c1r4pt0r.tk. It was originally published on 24th November 2015.

Airlive WN-151ARM pinout

For curious ones. Here is pinout of serial connection. As you can see UART pins are at J4 header (should have pin 4 labeled and 1 be square).

J4 header
Num. Function
1 VCC
2 RX
3 TX
4 GND

Edit: Oh, and one more thing: goldpin header, you see in the picture is soldered by me, so do not be surprised if you have to hold wires all the time during the transmission.

Root access

There is also possibility to gain root access without removing the cover and possibly voiding the warranty. You have to connect to router’s AP and enter

http://192.168.1.254/system_command.htm

into your browser (panel authentication required). Now you can execute any command you want with root privileges! So let’s type

/usr/sbin/utelnetd -d &

into Console command field and press Execute button. If everything went well, you should now be able to connect to your router using telnet at its default TCP port 23. After that you should see BusyBox banner and command prompt.

It is worth noting that this hidden console cannot be accessed by unauthorized person, so only router administrator can use this (in theory, in practice there are surely a lot of routers using default credentials and security of httpd binary is unknown).
