Hello everyone,

If any of you have a Arris modem such as the 820A, 860A, 852, 862G, etc and happen to have a locked bootloader. Do the following:

- Dump the flash with whatever you can use to dump a SPI flash.
- Load the backup into a hex editor.
- Search for "forceboot=1" (there will be a few instances of it throughout the flash)
- Modify "forceboot=1" to "forceboot=0"
- Save it.
- Reflash back.


Yes, change all instances of bootdelay=0 to bootdelay=5 on the Compal modem.


Shorted pin 8 to get into bootloader - thanks parker...

see part 2 "Flash firmware via serial cable (U-Boot)"

also you will need such tool

then download the firmware forceware 1.4b1 mod1

then read this http://www.haxorware.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=3025

also will be necessary to disable 4 downstream channels in the settings of forceware, because otherwise this version will work unstably (see tutorial)

Serial cable connector

---

upd: at the time when the modem is loading, it is necessary to short the eighth chip contact on the modem case as soon as the message appears
"Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0"
after this the loading will be interrupted
type
> printenv
then type
> setenv forceboot 0
> setenv bootdelay 5
> saveenv

then after rebooting the modem when the line appears
"Hit any key to stop autoboot: 5"
press SPACE bar

then see the part 2 "Flash firmware via serial cable (U-Boot)" in the manual https://ru.scribd.com/doc/62539505/SB621...emod-Guide#

so isee that its hard for midddle user?

no, a noob yes but middle no, this is basic modem hacking
it's hardly a full hard mod as theres no need to solder anything and all the tools needed to hack this are under $10
