Hello community, thanks to the recent activies I also thought about IMEI yesterday evening and it was fun that other's also did. Setting IMEI would still be a nice feature. In addition it would be interessting for me (in times of surveillance) whether silent sms (stealth ping) could be recognized

I've now prepared a second distro that can be used to flash the calypso with either of the two methods using Michael's loadtool program. This distro uses QTmoko as a base and includes the loadtool-r2 release and both the leo2moko-r1 and moko11 firmware. As such, you do not need an unlock cable

As the author claims, I've found his early steps towards a freeing of the calypso modem to work in the same way as the official moko11 release. Also the tools he's provided work equally well for flashing the moko11 firmware onto the freerunner as they do his own leo2moko-r1 offering. I've done

Note that because the uSD card distro which David just put together does not include loadtools internally (requires the use of the serial cable instead, with loadtools running on your PC), nothing in that distro became outdated as a result of this new loadtools release. Just download the new
