x5-initializer --- Initializer for Snapdragon X5 LTE modems to use them in Linux.

Set of scripts and programs for initialize Snapdragon X5 LTE modems.

Content:

  • udev.d - UDEV scripts for configure modem to provide QMI interface
  • copy_firmware.sh - Script to flash new firmware to modem

Required dependencies:

x5_initializer is an initializer for Qualcomm X5 LTE modems. This device is half-unconfigured after startup and require to flash fresh firmware and upload and select appropriate configuration. The copy_firmware.sh script do exactly that job: it flash fresh firmware and selects appropriate configuration.

Now you need the modem firmware. This can be obtained from a Windows install - alternatively it may be possible to download from your vendor's site and extracted with wine. On my install, these files could be found in a C:\Program Files (x86)\HP lt4120 Snapdragon X5 LTE\Image directory.

Please don't ask me for firmware. It's copyright Qualcomm and I can't redistribute it.
