After the module has been connected to the host via USB cable, the corresponding USB virtual ports will be displayed. The UART ports and the descriptors of corresponding USB virtual ports on the host system are listed as below. l e t l c a e i t u n Q ide f n o C ttyUSB0------DM Port ttyUSB1------NEMA Port ttyUSB2------AT Port ttyUSB3------Modem Port ttyUSB4------Wireless Ethernet Adapter Port NOTE The descriptors of USB virtual ports listed above are under the assumption that the host is not connected with other USB virtual devices. It is suggested that the host is only connected with Quectel modules when upgrading.

The firmware can be upgraded via DM port, AT port or modem port which is virtualized by USB driver, or via UART port directly. l e t l c a e i t u n Q ide f n o C Put the QFlash tool and the firmware package file into one directory of the host system. For example, the current directory is workplace and firmware package file is EC25EFAR02A04V03M4G, please switch to the workplace directory first, and then run the QFlash tool by following command. ./QFlash –f EC25EFAR02A04V03M4G –p ttyUSB0 There are two methods to upgrade the firmware. One is normal method, and the other is fastboot. NOTE Due to the complex operating environment on Linux and Android systems, sometimes customers have to compile source codes under their own development environment to generate the QFlash tool. In this case, customers need to contact Quectel Technical Support to apply for the source codes to run the QFlash. 4.1. Upgrade Firmware by Normal Method Run QFlash by following command: ./QFlash –f –p ttyUSB0 –m 1 The upgrading process is shown as below: Figure 1: Upgrading Process by Normal Method EC25&EC21&EC20 R2.0_QFlash_Linux&Android_User_Guide Confidential / Released 8 / 10 LTE Module Series EC25&EC21&EC20 R2.0 QFlash Linux&Android User Guide If the prompt in the following red box shows up, then the firmware is upgraded successfully. l e t l c a e i t u n Q ide f n o C Figure 2: Firmware is Upgraded Successfully by Normal Method 4.2. Upgrade Firmware by Fastboot Run QFlash by following command: ./QFlash –f –p ttyUSB0 –m 0 The upgrading process is shown as below: Figure 3: Upgrading Process by Fastboot EC25&EC21&EC20 R2.0_QFlash_Linux&Android_User_Guide Confidential / Released 9 / 10 LTE Module Series EC25&EC21&EC20 R2.0 QFlash Linux&Android User Guide If the prompt in the following red box shows up, then the firmware is upgraded successfully. l e t l c a e i t u n Q ide f n o C Figure 4: Firmware is Upgraded Successfully by Fastboot EC25&EC21&EC20 R2.0_QFlash_Linux&Android_User_Guide Confidential / Released 10 / 10
