fso-gsm
I'm using my freerunner as an everyday phone again after it was freed by the freecalypso project's baseband firmware. I'm running qtmoko v58 and would like to try this with fso-gsm; can anyone point me to the necessary software? I believe I just need a copy of libfsogsm.so.0.0.0? Also any advice, such as where to put that library would be appreciated.

[FSO] GSM Radar/AT Commands
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello All, I'm living in the land that mobile phone coverage forgot and thinking of how to improve my sorry situation. Before I go down the route of putting a GSM Antenna on top of the house and having a cable connected to my FreeRunner I thought I'd check out the other 2 GSM operators in my area and see what the signal strength is for them. Now my Nokia phone will not permit me to connect to a non vodafone signal so I've no idea how strong it is using the nokia. I'm not using the FR as a daily phone as yet but thought I could simply use an AT command to do a quick check on the various signal strengths. I tried "AT+WS46=?" but it has not come back to me and just hangs there. Does anybody, with better knowledge of AT commands then me, know of a likely command or if this is even possible. I was hoping that if I could find a stronger signal in my area I'd just change operator.

If I remember correctly AT+CSQ gives signal strength. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

On Debian (at least), openmoko-panel-plugin reports the GSM strength. So you could look at how it does it.

AT+COPS=? will list the visible providers, but not their signal strengths. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: [FSO] GSM Radar/AT Commands
i may be wrong -- but doesn't fso provide methods to obtain this kind of information? ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Yes I can confirm than AT+COPS=? lists the operators in the area but according to the data returned they are forbidden networks so I can't temporarily connect to them, and then use CSQ to get the signal strength. Such is life. Thanks for your help though. If fso has this stuff built in I missed it when searching. I'll look on the wiki again. Given that the networks are forbidden don't think there's much can be done. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFJCHjuXlbjSJ5n4BARAqKKAJ0eeEAbsFX/T0/CjJBBAG8Bhd+VLQCgonDZ 2lGAQ3AqHAiiuyg2wNR0J8M= =RN1y -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
