Public bug reported: There are certain modem runtime errors that can leave the modem in an inconsistent state which requires a modem reset to fix. Our MTK modem implementation supports such a reset, but there isn't a generic rilmodem method for doing so.
See the following pull-request for a bug which describes a problem where failures deactivating a gprs-context ( aka APN ) can lead to the gprs atom getting stuck. The fix was to implement retry logic, however if the retry limit is hit, we reset MTK-based modems. This bug concerns adding a generic method to reset devices that use the rilmodem driver exclusively ( eg. mako ). https://github.com/rilmodem/ofono/pull/195 This bug is being reported against ofono version 1.12.bzr6896+15.10.20150521-0ubuntu1. ** Affects: ofono (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Status: Confirmed ** Changed in: ofono (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Description changed: There are certain modem runtime errors that can leave the modem in an inconsistent state which requires a modem reset to fix.
