While Openmoko is still experimenting with and working on these subsystems (let alone UI), it makes no sense thinking about implementing 11.14. However, once the middleware has been stabilized (hopefully towards autumn this year), someone could actually think about that. If some operator wants that and provides a clean patch using the middleware services -- which would be a requirement, we don't want STK circumvent that -- then I see no problems with accepting such a patch. I don't see Openmoko doing anytime soon though. :M: ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

home zone functionality
Hello everyone, I didn't find an answer to my question. I had a look at the wish list for the FreeRunner and wanted to add a software feature but wasn't allowed to edit the page so I'm writing it in this mailing list. I'm german and using o2. It offers the so called Homezone which is a area you can define the center. When in this area (depending on GSM cells) you can give and receive calls with a additionaly provided fixed line number at lower charge. So my question is: is this feature already in the todo list? Since Vodafone and T-Mobile is offering an equivalent service for about one or two years now I think that it would be worth to implement this. Thank you for the great work!! Can't wait to get it!!

This seems like a feature of the network, not of the phone, and doesn't require any special support from the phone. And a quite strange feature, frankly. I'm not sure I understand the advantage of having one more number that only works sometimes, while in reality I strive for quite the opposite: having just one number that I can always be reached at, instead of having to tell people my home/office/etc numbers. This location-based approach is also quite counter to the current trend: with the modern technologies, it matters less and less where you physically are. It started with the very concept of a mobile phone and later continued with GSM roaming. These days some countries, like Norway, remove area codes and establish the same rate for calling any phone in the country. Finally, various VoIP technologies make it completely irrelevant where you are as long as you have an internet connection. This Homezone offer looks like a marketing trick to encourage people to talk slightly more and squeeze another penny out of them; it doesn't add any value and is, in fact, a way of selling air. It will eventually die along with the death of the very concept of home phone. -- Alexey Feldgendler [EMAIL PROTECTED] [ICQ: 115226275] http://feldgendler.livejournal.com ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: home zone functionality
Sorry for the unprecise question... I know about the home announcing when you begin a call, I used it because my imported mobile phone doesn't have the house symbol. But it would be nicer to get the house on the phone, although it's just an unimportant feature. I have no idea how it works. But it shouldn't be a problem for a phone company to get the specs.

Re: home zone functionality
Hello List, this is my first post to this list, but I read it for over a year now ;-) If i remember correctly, on the SIM-Card is an center and an radius defined and stored. These values are renewable via SMS, but this is only done by the network operator when you change your Homezone to another city. In germany in the o2-network every antenna sends its own coordinates in form of a 12 digit number called Gauss Krüger Koordinaten [1] [2] on cell broadcast channel 221. The SIM calculates, if it is inside the circle which is defined by center and radius and displays via the SIM-toolkit a picture (house) on the display of the phone. If you want to know more about this, you should look at nobbi.com where I found this information years ago. He has developed a Software called SIMspy2 [2] (windows binary only), which can read these stored coordinates, but there are sources too for an older version of it [4]. And for the hackers of you, AFAIK you can change the coordinates in your SIM by sending a special SMS to your phone, but this changes only the coordinates on your phone. The real billing is done via the network operator and is indepndent from what your phone thinks he is at home :-) To see how such a homezone works, have a look at my homezone [5]. Note the values center(X,Y) and radius on the page.

Many of those type of AT commands are gsm-modem specific. Many of them are far from AT standard and are implemented only in modems of that manufacturer.
