Some general comments: 1. Yes, ofono supports importing emergency numbers from those provided by the network. However, after taking a look to ril.h it looks like it is not implemented in AOSP (and I have not seen it in MTK ril.h Android, although maybe they use an Android property for sharing them, you never know). The only ofono driver that I see supports this it "ifxmodem" (Infineon).
2. There is nothing that prevents ofono to try to start a call even if there is no SIM present, it does not check against the list of emergency numbers. Imo dialer-app should not check the list either and allow the user to try to start a call even if there is no SIM. The network does know which numbers are for emergencies and which not. So I have added a task for dialer-app. 3. I think that emergency calls specifics are handled essentially by the modem and the network. The list can be used to do things like displaying "emergency" in the dialer when calling one of the numbers, or to avoid the modem to go offline when that happens and so on, but it should not be used to put restrictions on other numbers. We simply cannot know for sure which numbers are emergency and which not, so we should be safe here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1444883 Title: Emergency numbers for China (110,119) are not available in emergency mode To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1444883/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
