Rooting Toon (or boxx)

[Knol010]

Thank you. I got another toon that was root for me. That ssh password I can change with command passwd.

Thank you. I got another toon that was root for me. That ssh password I can change with command passwd.

That is because some other rooted toons still have the modified busybox on them (http://files.domoticaforum.eu/uploads/T ... r4_qb2.ipk) which contains the passwd command. I never advice to install this busybox as there are situations which it will brick your Toon.

For the Toon1 there is the cron package (you can find it on http://files.domoticaforum.eu/index.php ... on/ipk/qb2 ). Crontab is on a linux system used for timed tasks https://www.computerhope.com/unix/ucrontab.htm

Hi,
As you can see I`m new to this forum. Also a Toon user. Currently I have Toon (Not Rooted) on the wall.
I bought one from Marktplaats and was determined to root this one. Ans use this one in a other room. Haven't worked that one out yet.
First have to root the toon. So I have a RBPI 4 connected the JTAG dupont cables according this ehoco.nl/toon-openmaken-en-de-seriele-k ... ansluiten/
So I started up the RBPI and executed the following command : "sudo python . --jtag-available --jtag-hardware rpi3" but I`m receiving an error right away.
"
INFO:__main__:Starting up...
INFO:__main__:Written private and public key pair to ./id_rsa and ./id_rsa.pub, respectively
CRITICAL:__main__:[Errno 2] could not open port /dev/serial0: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/dev/serial0'
"
The console was connected to my windows computer, so I assumed that the console should be connected to the RBPI rebooted the Pi and try`d again. Still no sigaar.
with lusb the FT232RL is clearly available. Am I missing a step!?

Why do you quote that ehoco website? He isn't part of this forum and only copy pastes from us
You need to check https://github.com/ToonSoftwareCollective/ToonRooter or the official creator https://github.com/martenjacobs/ToonRooter for the manual of the ToonRooter script.

And then, since the last update the script detects a RPI4 so you don't need --jtag-hardware rpi3 (which doesn't work anyways).
Serial0 should be the default serial port on the pinheaders.
And I think you forgot to read in the README "Then make sure the serial port on the Pi is enabled and the serial console is disabled using raspi_config and reboot if necessary. "

@TheHogNL
I can see why this is frustrating. I had no idea. Sorry for that. If you want me to remove it, just let me know.

I was working the whole afternoon and better part of the evening to root my Toon, Did allot of troubleshooting. but I believe I got it done now.
Indeed the links you suggested where the ones who worked the best. You can expect a small donation shortly.

I`f updated the Toon to version 5.15.6 with a script (Witch I believe is also created by you and friend).
as far as i can tell the Toon is rooted, I see a basket (ToonStore) with all kinds of tools.
The status of internet shows me that i am connected with a service center. Is that correct!?
I`m able to connect with SSH to Toon, but I`m unable to login with the root and password that was supplied during the rooting process.
Did I gone a step to far

Greetings

We fake the connection to the service center. Without that, the toon keeps annoying you that there is no connection to the service center. But rest asure that there is no connection anymore

Maybe the root password is something else than that you think it is. Just hit 'restore password' in the TSC menu. This will reset your root password to be 'toon'.

Yes ofcourse. You can use the 'zon op toon' native app (enable it using the toon subscription feature button in TSC menu). But that requires an additional kWh meter to be installed (just like eneco does). You have the option of a wireless qubino (zwave) kWm meter or analog using the old school led sensor on a small kWh meter or using the S0 port on such a kWm meter. Read in viewtopic.php?f=95&t=11969

Currently I own Toon with the solar module.
This Toon i rooted was actually for fun. But i can check if this works.
Thanks TheHogNL
Greatly appreciated

Then it should work after you enable the zonoptoon feature

First of all!! Thank you guys for all the info and support on this forum.
Im a total noob in this world of programming/rooting/etc. but im learning every day just by playing/trying.

I rooted my first toon R8 with a RPI3 and JTAG and my next challenge is a R10.
But now im stuck.
I followed the R10 script/manual from rboers and im stuck at step 5. telnet session.
couldn't open u-boot.bin
somebody had the same problem and answer to that was:

That means that u-boot.bin isn't in the current directory from where you have started openocd. Did you download it? You need the u-boot.bin made for the Toon ofcourse. Why not use the toonrooter script?

I downloaded the zip file from github. in map assets i see u-boot.bin file, which directory do i need? rootToon like the script?
Can somebody explain in jip en janneke?

Code: Select all

Why not going the easy way and use the toonrooter? https://github.com/ToonSoftwareCollective/ToonRooter

I tried the scrip on github but its not working:

But im aware i got a R10 (newer U-boot version) so next step is Install OpenOCD.
I installed OpenOCD, also used script on github link..
tried python script again: same error as above.
Back to tutorial, i followed step 5. telnet session but then u-boot file not found..
im stuck in my own bootloop
