Welcome

Result

With the hack in place, I decided to update my program to be able to write pngs to the display. With a little mplayer-magic in place, I got this result. The movie is streamed over USB, the sound comes from the PC. The framerate is about 8fps.

I have packed together the program and firmware-hack together in an easy-to-use package for Linux-machines. Download it here. Instructions are contained in the README-file, and I'd appreciate a mail if it works for you. Please note that the software can't modify the pictures stored on the device yet, perhaps I'll add that when I have the time.

I found one of these at my childhood home and thought I remembered this article. I tried to get it running on this frame (vr3) with no luck (the firmware update doesn't seem to persist). So I decided to buy a frame on Ebay and I got that one working. It's a coby_dp152, so it wasn't supported but it was easy enough to get it working. I pushed a repo with all the versions of the code to github, for posterity. https://github.com/Grazfather/st2205tool

bluehash, the phack message writing works on stock. I'm not sure you ever managed to get the custom firmware working at all.

Also have various types including the mentioned AX206 based units. Its worth mentioning that the ones using the 29LV800 theoretically could be swapped out with the pin compatible 29LV640 found in some old routers and thus could be reprogrammed using one of these frames. The trick would be to boot it first then swap the chip. Also worth doing, clone the existing firmware and double the storage capacity.

Hi, I've Rollei KC DPF and I discover it has AppoTech AX206 or something OTP so can not be reprogrammed etc. I find 12c64 EEPROM onboard. What about emulate EEPROM with PIC etc. and when cpu tries read picture data, send any picture (or data screen) emulated? Any idea how cpu reads data and picture format for emulating? Thanx.

Nice hack. I've seen in stores another kind of "digital photo frame" which is more advanced than this toy, they cost about $50 Canadian and are ~7", with full colour display and SD card slot. They sit on a shelf and display photos from the SD card. I always figured for the price, they'd be great to hack to function as a monitor... probably not very good refresh rate, and you'd have to rig your own connection (maybe one of those wifi-enabled SD cards?), but great for displaying a terminal or status display, and probably can be hacked by a firmware update file placed on the card once you know how. (Maybe some have USB too, I dunno...)

Awesome. Great potential. I\'ve always wanted a tiny screen I can pack to run off a box straight from a bag rather than use a laptop which is more expensive to repair, buy parts for, more annoying to dismantle, and is less flexible for upgrades and power. If you\'re going to use a socket, may as well use a box, if you can save tons of space and cash for a portable screen, all the better. A bit more development for better fps (USB3 or Intel Flash maybe? Modded ports?), and you could use it for a lot of things. Always handy having a small screen for other info too, such as PC tmp, fan cycles, etc. Thanks for info ^_^

It's quite easy pairing up MPlayer (built with st2205) and linux-uvc. You should visit "our" wiki (at http://picframe.spritesserver.nl/wiki/index.php/Main_Page ) - there you'll find every bit of information you need.

I'm very interested in the applications of this hack for hobby model building; there are numerous possibilities for it as miniature model computer lcd screens or as a digital billboard in dioramas. I've been thinking of adapting an old razor cell phone to do this; but a solution using a cheap $15 keychain is a lot more attractive. I have purchased a Coby DP-151 with this in mind but the software it runs on is terrible to say the least. This had killed my hopes for the little device, at least until I found this project. As much as I hate to impose, is there any possibility of making it Coby friendly (or possibly even windows compatible)? Thanks for any feedback on this.

wael: Most photo frame devices (including this one) are usb peripherals. You need a USB master to control them, so to do what you are asking requires a USB webcam, computer, and the photo frame. If you wanted something portable you could go for one of the routers running OpenWrt as the controlling computer. See http://wiki.openwrt.org/TableOfHardware for a list of devices supporting OpenWrt with two USB ports. My favourite is the BR-6104KP. It has a low spec but is extremely cheap. I have setup a site with information: http://linux-adm5120.sourceforge.net/, and I'm sure I will eventually get around to doing something like what you are talking about.

It looks like my mod sends too little bytes to your device. Interesting. If it displays twice, I guess it wants to receive 24-bit color information, but only uses 12 bits of them? Interesting. Let's continue the work on your Coby device on the wiki. By the way, you could solder a switch to your battery to turn it off easily.

r0tw4ng wrote at 20 Jan 2008, 2.59:

Bert M - very cool of you to do that! FWIW, while it works better than the previous version, it doesn't work properly. When I use phack.sh to upload the supplied test image, the image is displayed twice on the LCD - in the upper-left and upper-right fourths of the display. The image isn't garbled - I can clearly read it - but it appears to be grayscale. The bottom half of the LCD still displays the sample image that came on the Coby. This process seems to confuse the Coby; after the upload, it seemingly resets the USB connection and refuses to accept bus address offers. I have to wait for the battery to discharge so the microcontroller resets before it will behave sensibly again. I tried it twice; same result. Interestingly, I noticed that immediately after the test image is displayed (twice, at quarter size), the backlight dims by roughly 50%.

r0tw4ng wrote at 18 Jan 2008, 3.06:

Pete, thanks for the info. Are you saying that I can simply convert the sample image to 12bpp and the utility should work with the Coby? Or will the utility need to be modified to do 12bpp for the Coby?

Pete wrote at 18 Jan 2008, 2.58:

Sprite, can I ask what disassembler you used? I looked all over and couldn't find an open source 65c02 disassembler that offered more than the most very basic of features. Understanding the firmware would be so much easier if I could find a disassembler that would use the values from your symbols.def at least :) r0tw4ng: the Coby DP-151 defaults to 12 bits per pixel for the display, and I guess the Tom-Tec that he wrote the hack for originally starts out in 16bpp mode. The hardware is capable of either, I guess the people who wrote the firmwares just chose differently. The options are basically either to put the device into 16bpp mode or to send it 12bpp image data.

r0tw4ng wrote at 17 Jan 2008, 23.52:

Received my Coby DP-151 today. I used the scripts in the v1.2 package linked here. The firmware was backed up successfully, the device was detected and the hacked firmware installed. The test image bit wrote "Eeeeeek!" at the top of the display, leaving part of the original sample image at the bottom. I wasn't sure if this was what it was supposed to do or not. I used the phack script to upload the sample PNG to the unit. The top half of the screen says "T IT IT I" and under that, text goes all the way across. It looks like several words on top of one another; no letters are clearly distinguishable, but I think I see ORK and NG in there. The bottom third of the screen shows part of an example image from Coby. I guess the device is waiting for more data to be written; it's totally unresponsive now. I tried various combinations of buttons, hoping it might reset, but it doesn't. Guess I'll let it sit overnight and run the battery down. If you have any suggestions as to how to proceed, I'm all ears. Thanks for your work on this - it's very cool. I'd like to get it to work.

Bert M wrote at 16 Jan 2008, 18.37:

Niels: PA0, PA1 and PA2 are most likely to be pushbutton inputs, according to the info on the datasheet of the controller (available here: http://www.sitronix.com.tw/sitronix/SASpecDoc.nsf/FileDownload/ST2205U734074/$FILE/ST2205U_datasheet_v1.0.pdf): it states PA0~7 are "Keyboard scan signal (return line)". A debug interface should be present at ICE1~6, but I guess there are no PCB lines connected to them. By the way: where is the firmware located? In the external flash chip or in the controller itself? I guess it is located in the flash chip, because the firmware is 64K, and the controller has only 16K of ROM. If that is true, one could quite easily (well, not that easily, ofcourse) modify the firmware in the flash, after bricking, because it does have accessible pins.

Niels wrote at 16 Jan 2008, 16.08:

Sprite: that's a pretty good idea. I've opened up my device and found some test pads, named VDD, GND and PA0, PA1, PA2. I suspect it's a debug interface, and maybe it'll allow us to flash the firmware directly, giving us a chance to unbrick the thing if we make a mistake :) Picture: http://elektron.ewi.tudelft.nl/~brouwe25/IMG_1942.JPG

Sprite_tm wrote at 16 Jan 2008, 10.39:

Niels: If you do that, you may want to add a switch to the highest address line of the flash so you can choose to make it permanently high. That way, you can use the normal firmware to flash your own code to the locations after 1M into the flash, flick the switch, and reset into your own code. If you mess something up, you still have the original routines to bring the device back from the dead.

Found all of the parts OK, creaded a new spec file, assembled the hack source all looked ok.... Ran the hackfw.sh script again, aborted before uploading, it patched the firmware OK. Disassembled that, and it all appears to make sense. I can see where the new code is inserted, where the diversion is planted, and how it does the old stuff if no new stuff is requested.... So, ran the hackfw.sh script one more time, this time went through with the firmware upload. Device screen goes black, it reboots when disconnected. Reconnect it and choose upload mode, use phack -l to upload an image and it just goes black. It comes back on when disconnected, so it's not a brick, and phack recognizes it as hacked, but the image doesn't display.... BTW, I can put the original firmware back in, and then phack -l has no effect, so I know the hacked firmware is playing with the LCD controller.... Any ideas?... Any chance of putting the other firmwares up for download so I can see if there is another difference with this AV Labs device?

Any chance of interfacing this with a non-USB microcontroller? This would be nice as a cheap user interface or debugger interface for cheap and simple embedded systems. The datasheet for the ST2205U says it has a UART, so that could be used to interface the microcontroller. This could be a really cheap data logging and display device. Since I live in the Netherlands, I might pick up one or two to fiddle with. Somebody said Intertoys has them?

Oh snap, really good job! Thank you so much!

Exactly what I was thinking when I found them in a shop, so I snagged one as well, but was a bit intimidated by the glob-top package. Thanks a bunch! I'll give it a try!

So it i'm reading this correctly, you have essentially got a really tiny (like maby wristwatch sized) lcd monitor? i can think of some interesting uses for something like that.

Looks nice, where did you actually get it from/what make is it?

Nice job on that one! The 'Intertoys'folder from November contained that thing as well. It caught my attention too ;) Never too old to play with those kind of toys. See you in the STORES!
