 To get the UART enabled at boot with the stock bootloader:
10 57 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
* Power the phone off and remove the battery
11
* Put a battery in
12 62 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
* Hold the select button
13 57 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
* Plug the UART
14 70 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
* Release the select button
15
To get the UART enabled at boot with the Replicant 6.0 kernel and the stock bootloader, see the "DHylands_SGS2_Console":https://wiki.mozilla.org/DHylands_SGS2_Console page on the mozilla wiki. | At some point the boot procedure switches to the modem UART, it's probably some linux driver doing that |

To increase verbosity during boot:
20
* Power off the phone and remove the battery
21
* Put a battery in
22
* Press the hold the volume-down button
23
* Plug the UART and wait for the first lines to be printed
24
* Release the volume-down button |/2. It gives a shell once Replicant 6 has booted |

fn8. Works, as it was tested on the device. TODO: measure the voltage, as lower UART voltages often works with higher voltage levels.

fn9. Works, as it was tested on the device. TODO: look the official reference in the driver for it.
