General about testing
Phone operating modes
Phone has three different modes for testing/repairing phone. Modes can be selected with
suitable resistors connected to BSI- and BTEMP- lines as following:
Table 1: Mode selection resistors
The MCU software enters automatically to local or test mode at start-up if correspond-
ing resistors are connected.
Note! Baseband doesn't wake up automatically when the battery voltage is connected
(normal mode). Power can be switched on by
• Pressing the power key
• connecting a charger
• RC-alarm function
In the local and test mode the baseband can be controlled through MBUS or FBUS (FBUS
is recommended) connections by a Phoenix service software.
Mode BSI- resistor BTEMP- resistor Remarks
Normal 68k 47k
Local 560_ (<1k_) What ever
Test 3.3k (> 1k) 560_ (<1k_) Recommended with baseband testing. Same as
local mode, but making a phone call is possible.

Baseband Troubleshooting
Note: ESN and IMEI has to re-written to phone If UEM is replaced. This can be
done only in Central Service.
The Baseband Troubleshooting instructions consists of the following topics:
•Powerup
• Flash programming
•Audio
•Earpiece
•Microphone
• Charging
• Accessory detection
• Data cable
•Sleepclock
• User interface
•Display
•Lights
•Buzzer
•Vibra

• Power up faults
Power up sequence
UEM acts as a HW master during start up
• Vbatt limits: 2.1V for internal state machine, 3V triggering whole startup
• Regulator sequencing

•Hw "core" regulators "on": Vio, Vcore, VR3, Vflash1
•These regulators are supplying the processors, memory, chip interfaces and
clock source in RF
• Reset releasing delay
•Supply voltages stabilize to their UEM hw default values
•RFCLK grows to full swing
•Core is ready to run but waiting for PURX release
• Reset releasing
•UPP releases the SLEEPX up to "non sleep" -state to prevent the UEM switching
the regulators "OFF"
MCU starts running the Bootstrap Code
•written in stone/ UPP internal ROM
•the program checks if there exists any reason for FDL mode (Flash Down Load)
•If there exists executable code in FLASH and there exists no reason for FDL, the
MCU starts running the MCU program from FLASH.
MCU runs the FLASH MCU code
•the phone initialization, user interfaces, internal blocks etc
•Core regulator voltage setting for required DSP speed
•Initializes the DSP and concerning hw
•Releases DSP reset -> DSP starts running
Note: In the figure below RF_Clk frequency appears to be lower than 19.2MHz
because of too low oscilloscope sampling frequency (2kS/s).

1 Power key pressed
• After 20ms UEM enters RESET MODE if VBAT>Vmstr+
2 2) VFLASH1, Vana, Vcore, Vio and VR3 goes high.
• VCTCXO enabled by VR3 -> RFClk 19.2 MHz running.
3 Purx released
• Purx released by UEM, UEMINT goes high for 100 ms and about
500ms RFCLK will change 13MHz (GSM mode), SleepX goes high and
UEM starts feeding SleepClk (32 KHz) to UPP. NOTE! Sleepclock starts
running in crystal circuitry (B200) immediately when battery voltage is
supplied.
4 Software running
• Default value for Vcore is 1.5 volts and if software is running Vcore will
rise to 1.8 volts.
• Cbus (1.00MHz/GSM and 1.08MHz/TDMA) clock starts running.

Phone does not start up normally or does not stay on
Note! In case of power up faults, it's not possible to force phone on by disabling watch-
dog. Instead, measurements should be done immediately when power key pressed or
when battery voltage connected to phone (local/test mode).
The easist way to check if software is running when phone takes abnormal amount of
current is to measure cbusclk and Vcore.
Dbus clock (programmable 9.72MHz TDMA, 13MHz GSM) is not automatically visible on
test and local mode.

•FBUSTX(serial data to phone),
•FBUSRX(serial data from phone),
•MBUS(serial clock for FBUSRX)
•VPP(External flashing voltage for speed up flashing)
• Also BSI line is used when initializing flashing (battery connector)
• When phone is powered (VBAT>3V ) MBUS and FBUSTX lines are pulled up inter-
nally by phone.
• Prommer sends command to UEM, using FBUSRX, to enter Flash-mode. During
the sending of this command prommer keeps BSI line high and MBUS is used as a
serial clock.
• When Flash-mode command is acknowledged UEM enters Flash-mode and
releases reset (PURX) to MCU.
• After reset is released UPP checks if there is a request for Bootstrap code (that
resides in UPP ROM).
• Request for Bootstrap is MBUS pulled down by Prommer. (If bootstrap is not
requested, bootstrap code jumps to FLASH SW.)
• If Bootstrap code is requested UPP enters Flash-mode and sets FbusTX to '0' as
acknowledgement to prommer. This is an indication that UPP can run, at least,
the fixed Bootstrap code – although not able to run FLASH code. UPP then sends
an UPP-ID to prommer via FBUSTX line.
• After prommer has received UPP-ID it sends corresponding Secondary Boot Code
to phone via FBUSRX. Secondary Boot Code, when run in UPP, requests UPP to
send information to prommer about flash type and other HW related parameters
about the device to be flashed.
• Prommer then sends the Algorithm Code corresponding to the HW parameters
and this algorithm, when run in UPP, takes over handling the MCUSW transfer to
Flash.
• 12 volts can be supplied to Vpp (by prommer) to speedup flashing.
• FLASH Program includes a package of MCU and DSP software and all default
parameters for the phone. The tuning values will be added/rewritten during
Flash/Alignment phase.

Audio failures
In case of audio failures there are three possibilities to check audio lines.
1 Make a phone call against tester and check audios.
2 In case of earpiece/XMIC fail: Feed 1Khz signal to XMIC line and measure signal
from earpiece line. Audio test box JBA-8 is needed. Audio loop (Audio test/Ext In

audios only through UEM. In this case UPP is not used.
