ArmDebugger

ArmDebugger is a powerful debugger for Siemens phones by Chaos.

For more information, read the README.txt in the archive or the discussion on the forum.

CGSN Patch

To use the debugger, you need to install a special patch called the CGSN Patch. This patch implements a special protocol for the debugger to work via the serial port. The patch can be automatically generated using ArmDebugger.

Follow these steps:

  1. Run ArmDebugger.exe
  2. Open Tools -> Generate CGSN Patch
  3. Select your fullflash.bin
  4. Apply the generated patch using V-Klay

Configuration Examples

If your phone is not yet defined in devices.ini, you need to create your own config section.

This is usually done by copying the section for a similar model and replacing MallocAddress with the correct address of the malloc() function.

Example for NSG/ELKA​

EL71, E71, M72 (proto), CL61 (proto), C0F1 (proto), C81, M81, S68

You need to replace:

  • SIEMENS:C81:51 — with your model and firmware version
  • Siemens C81 fw51 — with your model and firmware version
  • MallocAddress = 0xA0094B5C — with the correct malloc() address
[SIEMENS:C81:51]
Name = Siemens C81 fw51

BootROMaddress = 0x400000;
BootROMsize = 0x100000;

FlashAddress = 0xa0000000;
FlashSize = 0x04000000;

IntRAM1address = 0x0;
IntRAM1size = 0x4000;

IntRAM2address = 0x80000;
IntRAM2size = 0x18000;

ExtRAMaddress = 0xa8000000;

VMalloc3size=0x01000000
VMalloc4address=0xaD000000
VMalloc4size=0x01000000

MiscSpaceaddress=0xc0000000
MiscSpacesize=0x00100000

IOaddress = 0xf0000000
IOsize = 0x10000000

UseRAM = 0x89000

MallocAddress = 0xA0094B5C ; CHANGE THIS
MallocPages = 100

Example for old NSG​

S75, SL75

You need to replace:

  • SIEMENS:S75:52 — with your model and firmware version
  • Siemens S75 fw52 — with your model and firmware version
  • MallocAddress = 0xA0094B5C — with the correct malloc() address
  • FlashSize = 0x04000000 — with the required FLASH size (e.g., 0x6000000 for SL75)
[SIEMENS:S75:52]
Name = Siemens S75 fw52

BootROMaddress = 0x400000
BootROMsize = 0x100000

FlashAddress = 0xa0000000
FlashSize = 0x04000000

IntRAM1address = 0x0
IntRAM1size = 0x4000

IntRAM2address = 0x80000
IntRAM2size = 0x18000

ExtRAMaddress = 0xa8000000
ExtRAMsize = 0x01000000

IOaddress = 0xf0000000
IOsize = 0x10000000

UseRAM = 0x89000

MallocAddress = 0xA0094B5C ; CHANGE THIS
MallocPages = 300

Example for SG​

S75, SL75, CX75, M75, SK65, CX70, C65, CX65, M65, S65, SL65, ME75, CF75, C75, C72

You need to replace:

  • SIEMENS:C75:22 — with your model and firmware version
  • Siemens C75 fw22 — with your model and firmware version
  • MallocAddress = 0xA0203C24 — with the correct malloc() address
  • FlashSize = 0x2000000 — with the required FLASH size (e.g., 0x4000000 for SK65)
  • ExtRAMsize = 0x800000 — with the required RAM size (e.g., 0x1000000 for SK65 or CX75)
