Workaround: Issue will be fixed in 1.4 release, in the meantime an updated version of the tool can be downloaded here: https://docs.toradex.cn/104689-imagecompressiontool-imx6.zip

WC-332New FeatureMARK parity is fully supported, SPACE parity has limitationsApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6UARTWEC7, WEC2013

Description: MARK parity works correctly, SPACE parity can be configured to send data, but to receive bytes with SPACE parity a byte with MARK parity must be received first (this is a hardware-defined behavior and can't be changed by software). If this is not the required behavior then it will be required to set parity to SPACE when sending data and to ODD or EVEN when receiving, ignoring parity errors. This means that it will not possible to use SPACE parity on a full-duplex connection.

WC-320FixedRtcSync fails when using internal RTCApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6RTCWEC7, WEC2013

Description: Since release 1.4b4 the display driver will use splash screen settings from the bootloader by default. If this is not the desired behaviour the parameter must be explicitly set to 0 in the registry. If you currently have settings in the registry that you want to be applied by the OS you need to explicitly set UseSplashSettings to 0, otherwise bootloader settings will be used instead. Link to display registry settings description: https://developer.toradex.com/knowledge-base/display-driver-registry-settings

WC-408Fixedplatfrom.bib behaves wrong if backlight component is disabledColibri iMX6WinCE FeatureWEC7, WEC2013

WC-406FixedDisplay driver fails if not enough video memory is reservedApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6GraphicsWEC7, WEC2013

Description: Memory for the main framebuffers must be allocated in video memory, if not enough memory is available, the display driver cannot be loaded. Application can request further memory, if that is not available the driver should fallback to regular memory, but a bug prevented that and lead to a crashed display driver.

Workaround: Issue has been fixed in release 1.4b4

WC-405Fixed2D acceleration may not work on non-aligned surfacesApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6GraphicsWEC7, WEC2013

Workaround: Issue has been fixed in release 1.4b4

WC-281FixedIssue playing very short sound samplesApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6Analog AudioWEC7, WEC2013

Description: When a short audio sample (less than one second) is played it is barely audible. Longer samples seem to not have this issue. This is due to the fact that the audio driver turns volume to zero when no sound is played and then increases it back to previous level when starting playback of a new sound. The volume by default is not increased immediately (to prevent popping sounds or noise) and this may lead to short sound played after at least 2 seconds without any sound played being barely audible.

Workaround: Remove slow volume ramp-up by adding registry entry: [HKLM\builtin\Audio] "Reg0x0E"=dword:03000000

WC-229New FeatureTime can only be set upto year 2034Apalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6RTCWEC7, WEC2013

WC-387FixedUseSplashSettings display configuration parameter does not work with LVDSApalis iMX6GraphicsWEC7, WEC2013

Description: If this parameter is set and an LVDS display is configured, the device hangs at boot.

Workaround: You can configure both the splash screen and the registry entries in the OS, this will generate a very brief flash on the screen when it's re-initialized by Windows CE but will work.

WC-386FixedSome LVDS displays may not work with 1.3 releaseApalis iMX6LVDSWEC7, WEC2013

Description: Displays using specific pixel clock frequencies will not work on 1.3 release due to an issue with enabling/disabling of PFD0 of 528MHz PLL. Displays that are driven using PLL5 (VIDEO PLL) work.

Workaround: On some use cases DirectDraw overlays may provide an alternative implementation of the features that are currently not accelerated on GDI.

WC-218FixedRegistry format changed and isn't compatible with previous BSP versions anymoreApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6WinCE FeatureWEC7, WEC2013

Description: Registry format has been changed in release 1.4b2 to improve boot time and to solve issue #28896 (Deleting default registry entries does not work). Unfortunately, it's not possible for the new image to load a copy of registry stored by old releases.

Workaround: You can export registry keys using the registry editor and use the same tool to re-import those changes in new images.

WC-214FixedDirectDraw blits leave some artifacts on screenApalis iMX6GraphicsWEC7, WEC2013

Description: After a blit operation a small part of the image (usually few pixel in a row) is not updated correctly. The effect disappears after a few seconds. This happens when software bypasses normal blit operations and accessed video memory as normal (cached) memory.

Workaround: Issue has been fixed in version 1.4b2. Some registry settings have been added to force application to access surfaces as uncached memory. Setting are documented in the "Display Driver Registry Settings" page on the developer website: https://developer.toradex.com/knowledge-base/display-driver-registry-settings

WC-207New FeatureSupport RNDIS on Debugger clientApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6WinCE FeatureWEC7, WEC2013

WC-184FixedNotepad Selects Random FontApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6WinCE FeatureWEC7, WEC2013

Description: The text editor starts with a random font selection.

Workaround: Select the font manually in the Format -> Font... menu. Save the registry if you want to change this permanently.

WC-176FixedUSB-on-the-go driver slows down bootApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6USBWEC7, WEC2013

Description: The USB on-the-go driver may take up to 1.5 seconds to initialize at boot. This issue was mitigated in 1.4b2 due to the new asynchronous loading approach used since this version.

Workaround: If you want to improve boot time in odlder BSP versions and plan to use the USB port always as host or as device you can force host or client mode as described here: https://developer.toradex.com/knowledge-base/usb-on-the-go#Colibri_and_Apalis_IMX6_modules

WC-171New FeatureImprove boot timeApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6Bootloader, Kernel, WinCE FeatureWEC7, WEC2013

Description: In image 1.3b4 the image format has been changed to reduce boot time. Release 1.4b2 contains additional changes to further reduce this time and allow users to run their own user-mode application as soon as possible. Changes should not impact the operations of most applications, but if your application needs to access some resources immediately at startup you may need to change your code to wait until those are available. In the new image those relevant changes have been made: - reduce timeout/delays of different startup routines: this should not have impact on existing solution, the new delays have been tested and work as the over-conservative delays of previous releases - change to registry format: format is not backward compatible, if you want to import registry from an old version you'll have to export/re-import it using the registry editor app and not update tool - some drivers are loaded asynchronously. This greatly improve image startup time, but some drivers may not be ready when the application starts. Separated items have been added for the above issues, you can find more information there and in the developer website.

1.3.1 (Release date: 2018-05-22)
Maintenance release to fix booting issue on Colibri/Apalis iMX6 modules. See issue description below for details.

WC-195FixedImage release 1.3b2 not mounting flashdisk when installed using the Toradex Easy Installer on a brand new moduleApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6FlashWEC7, WEC2013

Description: There is an issue mounting the \FlashDisk storage folder that has a 5' timeout. The device takes more than 5' minutes to boot and does not mount \FlashDisk. This happens only on devices where Windows Embedded Compact was not installed or that had their flash memory erased before the installation.

Workaround: There are two workarounds: - Install image version 1.2 instead, boot it and then use update tool to install the new image and bootloader - Wait until the device has booted (5-6') and then use registry editor to add this entry to the device registry: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\BootMMC\FATFS] "DisableAutoFormat"=dword:0 Save the registry and reboot, now the device will boot normally and mount \FlashDisk as expected

WC-192FixedLVDS signals not active sometimes at bootApalis iMX6LVDSWEC7, WEC2013

WC-177FixedCompressed image format has been changed to speed-up loadingApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6BootloaderWEC7, WEC2013

Description: The format used to store the compressed image has been changed. The new bootloader and updatetool/libraries can use both old and new images, old tools with return an error before flashing it. If you want to update a system running an image earlier that 1.3b4 you need to use the latest updatetool (part of the download package of the new image).

WC-175FixedLoad order of wait4flash driver has been changedApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6WinCE FeatureWEC7, WEC2013

Description: Loading order of the "wait for flash driver", that grants that \flashdisk folder is mounted and can be used to load external drivers have been changed to improve boot time. This will not impact USB drivers but may impact other kinds of device drivers that need to be loaded very early in the boot process or usage of the earlyautocopy feature.

Workaround: Change the load order of the driver and save registry.

WC-172New FeatureAdd support for VMINI and generic network adapter to VSDebuggerApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6WinCE FeatureWEC7, WEC2013

Description: VSDebugger.exe uses the default ethernet devices of the different modules. This new release supports also the VMINI adapter, allowing debugging of OS using Platform Builder and application using Visual Studio debugger. If the device does not use the ethernet interface but has a different kind of connection supporting TCP/IP (wi-fi, modem etc.), adding the CheckAdapterName DWORD parameter under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Toradex\Debugger and setting it to zero will allow the debugger to run without checking the adapter used.

WC-255FixedUART baud rate is not using full precisionApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6UARTWEC7, WEC2013

Description: For some baud rates the actual bit rate is not very precise and this may lead to problems with devices that are not able to auto-adjust their baud rate, mostly when a large amount of data is transferred with no interruptions.

Workaround: Issue has been fixed in release 1.2b4

WC-252FixedUSB function drivers don't return the same serial number after a rebootApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6USBWEC7, WEC2013

Description: The serial number string returned inside the USB descriptors (and supposed to be used to uniquely identify a USB device) changes after every reboot and this may lead to re-installation of the host-side drivers on the controlling PC/device.

Workaround: The issue has been fixed and the fix will be part of the next beta release. Serial number may be configured for some client drivers using the "SerialString" registry entry, but this will require adding a unique ID to the registry for each single device.

WC-239FixedDefault NTP servers are not longer operatingApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6RTC, WinCE FeatureWEC7, WEC2013

Description: Some of the time servers configured in the standard image are no longer active. We replace the NTP servers with the ones from the NTP Pool Project (See also: http://www.pool.ntp.org )

Workaround: Add additional time servers and remove the non-valid ones as described here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms884926.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396

WC-238FixedSD card shows an empty filesystem after multiple writesApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6SDIO/SD/MMCWEC7, WEC2013

Description: After write activity the SD card stops responding to commands and this leads to the filesystem appearing to be completely empty. Card removal is detected, but the card is not detected again if plugged back in. Reboot is required to be able to access the card again and filesystem contents are preserved.

Workaround: This issue has been fixed in release 1.2b4

WC-237FixedConsole output is very slowApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6WinCE Feature

Workaround: Issue has been fixed in release 1.1

WC-573New FeatureAllow usage of the NOP display driver for headless devicesApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6GraphicsWEC7, WEC2013

Description: Defining BSP_NODISPLAY will exclude display support from the image, undefining BSP_DISPLAY in the BSP batch file will just exclude the display driver, letting customers replace it with a different one, the NOP driver, for example. This should allow users to connect with the remote display tool even if no display is physically connected to the module. NOP driver still uses some memory for its internal frame buffer.

Workaround: Issue has been fixed in release 1.1

V1.1beta4 (Release date: 2016-11-25)
- WEC 7 Updates: Installed Microsoft CE7 Updates until September 2016
- WEC 2013 Updates: Installed Microsoft CE8 Updates until September 2016
WC-665FixedUSB devices not recognized after plug/unplugApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6USBWEC7, WEC2013

Description: Unplugging and re-plugging USB hubs and USB mass-storage devices sometimes does not work. Devices are no longer detected and a reboot is required to be able to use USB devices again. This happens when no first-level USB hub is connected, on boards like Viola or Iris.

Workaround: Issue has been fixed in version 1.1 beta 4.

WC-664FixedUSB serial not working after plug/unplugApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6USBWEC7, WEC2013

Description: Using the USB serial driver as described here: http://developer.toradex.com/knowledge-base/serial-over-usb The connection is not re-activated if the network cable is unplugged and re-plugged

WC-663FixedSPI driver support 8, 16 and 32 bit word lenghtApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6SPIWEC7, WEC2013

Description: From release 1.1 beta 4 the SPI driver has been modified to support 8,16 and 32bit words and multiple chip-selects that are triggered for the whole length of the SPI transfer.

WC-659FixedConfiguring silent mode boot does not hide bootloader version messageApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6BootloaderWEC7, WEC2013

Description: Even if boot.silent is set the first message "Toradex Bootloader " is displayed on top of the splash screen.

Workaround: Issue has been fixed in bootloader 1.1 beta 4

WC-657New FeatureI2C does not keep different frequencies for different apps invoking the driverApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6I2CWEC7, WEC2013

Description: When multiple applications access the I2C driver (directly or using libs) they can change bus frequency. This change is global and affects all the communication operations performed by the driver after the change. Since there is no way for apps to be aware of frequency changes and those cannot be performed in an atomic way together with transfers, we changed the driver to support different frequencies for each instance (each app that calls "open"). Applications using the libs can do multiple I2C_Init calls to use different transfer speed. Of course using different speeds for devices connected to the same bus is not the best thing to do from an HW point of view, but this solution can allow better performances for drivers requiring fast transactions or significant data transfers.

Workaround: Issue has been fixed in rev. 1.1B4. No changes are required for applications and libraries.

WC-655FixedSupport for second SD controller on ColibriColibri iMX6SDIO/SD/MMCWEC7, WEC2013

Description: SD controller 2 has no default pinout on Colibri, so the driver is not loaded by default. Also configuring pinout is not working and currently the driver cannot be used on Colibri modules based on i.MX6. This impact Colibri modules only, SD slot 2 works on Apalis modules.

Workaround: Issue has been fixed in version 1.1 beta 4

WC-652FixedSupport for custom splash screen bigger than 512KBApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6BootloaderWEC7, WEC2013

Description: The flashsplash command in the bootloader can’t flash splash screens bigger than 512kb, even if the area allocated for the splash is 4MB.

Workaround: Issue has been fixed in version 1.1 beta 4. Splash screen size can't be bigger than screen resolution. For example a 800x600 splash screen can be saved but will not be display if screen resolution at boot is 640x480.

WC-649FixedTurning off auto-negotiation on Ethernet disables 10mbit supportApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6EthernetWEC7, WEC2013

Description: When auto-negotiation is disabled in the registry it's impossible to setup 10mbit link.

WC-647FixedUSB endpoints stop working when transfers are aborted by driver without closing pipe.Apalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6USBWEC7, WEC2013

Description: An USB endpoint may stop processing transfers without returning an error, other endpoints communicating with the same device or other devices keep working. This happens when a driver calls AbortTransfer on multiple pending transfer and at the same time one of those transfer is completed. This can happen only on multi-core processors. In this case the pipe is no longer able to complete transfers and must be closed and reopened to restore functionality.

WC-646FixedFilesystem on eMMC or SD may be corrupted after normal write operationsApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6FlashWEC7, WEC2013

Description: Issues have been reported with eMMC contents corrupted during file access or after a reboot. One or more sectors are written with incorrect data and this may lead to single file corruption or to corruption of the whole filesystem. Caching may prevent the issue from being noticed until the device is rebooted.

Workaround: Issue has been fixed in version 1.1 beta 4. Power fail safe operation requires that a transaction safe filesystem (TFAT or TexFAT) is used on those mass storage devices.

WC-645FixedMass storage read operations may return wrong dataApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6USBWEC7, WEC2013

Description: Read/write operation on an USB mass storage device may return invalid data or store invalid data on the device, leading to file system corruption or wrong information returned to applications.

Workaround: Issue has been fixed in version 1.1 beta 4

WC-644FixedMulti-core system freezesApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6KernelWEC7, WEC2013

Description: On multi-core modules the whole system freezes when there is activity on eMMC, USB, SPI or ethernet. The issue seems to be related to cache management, but at the moment there are no workarounds.

Description: Copy/Paste of files doesn't work in the explorer/desktop on WEC2013.

Workaround: Issue has been fixed in version 1.1 beta 4

WC-636New FeatureOptional USB signals cannot be disabledColibri iMX6USBWEC2013

Description: The over-current and power-enable signals, used for USB host and On-The-Go controller when in host mode, can't be used as regular GPIOs, configuring them in that way prevents the host driver from working.

Workaround: Issue as been fixed in version 1.1beta4, as documented here: http://developer1.toradex.com/knowledge-base/i-mx6-usb-host-and-usb-on-the-go-driver-registry-settings

WC-625FixedChanges in names of tools included in the imageApalis iMX6WEC7, WEC2013

Description: To standardize naming across different modules and different releases of the operating system some tool executable names have been changed: - update tool is named update.exe when is part of the image and updatetool.exe when provided as a separate download. Having different names is required otherwise the system will always run the update.exe version from image. - pnotepad.exe in Windows Embedded Compact 7 images has been replaced by notepad.exe that is the same tool we use in Windows Embedded Compact 2013 images.

Workaround: If you need to use pnotepad.exe you can take it from previous releases of the OSDesign and store it in the \flashdisk\system folder. This tool is anyway provided only for Windows Embedded Compact 7

WC-624FixedRegistry saving fails if loading order of SD controllers is changedApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6WEC7, WEC2013

Description: The registry implementation needs to communicate with the SD driver to prevent accesses to the eMMC when registry is going to be saved. The current implementation relies on the fact that the eMMC is DSK1: and this is granted with the default load order. If another SD controller (1 or 2) is loaded first, then the order may change, preventing users from saving the registry. Loading still works.

WC-607FixedSupport IO control to retrieve storage IDs of USB mass-storage devicesApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6USBWEC7, WEC2013

Description: This feature is supported on PXA BSPs and images and was ported to i.mx6.

WC-548New FeatureAdd support for SATA for Apalis iMX6Apalis iMX6SATAWEC7, WEC2013

Description: SATA is supported in version 1.1 beta 4. The driver is currently disabled in the registry, but can be enabled by adding the correct Dll name inside the Drivers\builtin\sata subkey.

WC-494New FeatureOnly required UART signals are multiplexed by the bootloaderApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6BootloaderWEC7, WEC2013

Description: Bootloader in version 1.1 beta 4 multiplexes only tx and rx pins of the serial port used for debug console. This allows other signals of the default UART pinout to be used as GPIOs inside the bootloader. Signals may be multiplexed by the UART driver in Windows CE, to prevent that, additional registry configuration may be required.

WC-476FixedGraphical glitches shown on USB Camera Directshow previewColibri iMX6USBWEC7

Description: Accessing USB camera using the DirectShow implementation was showing some artifacts with the on-screen image only partially updated. Still capture was working correctly.

Workaround: Issue has been fixed in version 1.1B4

WC-467FixedNetwork connection speed and duplex can be configured in registryApalis iMX6EthernetWEC7, WEC2013

Description: Customers reported that Apalis modules don't connect to some 1000Mbps hubs and routers.

Workaround: In version 1.1beta2 some parameters can be used to force the speed and mode of the ethernet controller, bypassing auto-negotiation. The parameters must be saved under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ENET1 - SpeedMode (can be 10,100 or 1000) forces connection speed - DuplexMode (can be 0 for half duplex or 1 for full duplex) forces connection mode

WC-443FixedUSB Hard drive does not workApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6WEC7, WEC2013

Description: Disabling the USB on-the-go driver from registry to force the 2nd USB interface permanently in host or device mode causes issues with the host-only interface. Issue has been fixed in release 1.1beta2

WC-559New FeatureAudio output volume is very lowApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6Analog AudioWEC7, WEC2013

Description: Currently, the audio driver uses only the main volume setting on the external audio chip to configure output volume, this leads to a low volume on the headset output used as audio output on the modules. The volume can be increase by setting the "HPVolume" dword value under [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Builtin\Audio] to a value between 0 and 127. with 0 being the highest volume. Increasing this volume above a certain value can lead to distortion on the output, depending on the configuration of the carrier board and speakers, so you may need to do some tests to find the optimal value for your specific setup.

WC-558New FeatureAdd registry parameter to disable mouse cursorApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6GraphicsWEC7, WEC2013

Description: Setting to 0 the "cursor" dword parameter under [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Display] will disable mouse cursor and prevent it from being shown in any application.

WC-551FixedPRJ_ENABLE_FSREGHIVE set for some configuration of sample workspace for CE7Apalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6WinCE FeatureWEC7

Description: Build of custom images of versions earlier that 1.0 may fail because hive-based registry is no longer enabled and supported, but the PRJ_ENABLE_FSREGHIVE is mistakenly still active in some configurations. Since release 1.0beta5 the system no longer uses hive-based registry and custom os designs must use the RAM based registry component instead.

WC-546New FeatureSupport RS-485 mode on serial portsApalis iMX6, Colibri iMX6UARTWEC7, WEC2013

Description: Support for RS485 mode has ben added in version 1.1beta2 and behaves as described in this KB article: http://developer.toradex.com/knowledge-base/rs485

Supporting it (enabling via a bootloader parameter) could increase system reliability and can reset the device in scenarios where the software-based watchdog supported by Windows CE can't (interrupt storm, failure in ISR, infinite busy loop in a high priority thread). This would be transparent for application developers (they will just need to enable it in bootloader parms).
