Maybe it's not possible. It might just be that the app does not expose its
methods in the way you want.

If qdbus is not working, use mdbus2 or dbus --monitor.

 a DBUS

See the code for media-im-status-updater. It does exactly that.

You can get them via dbus. First you get the operator code and country code,
then you get the proper string. In shell script:

#!/bin/sh
opcountry=$(dbus-send --system --print-reply=literal --dest=
com.nokia.phone.net /com/nokia/phone/net \
Phone.Net.get_registration_status | tr '\n' ' ' | awk '{print $8,$10}')
opcode=$(echo $opcountry | cut -f1 -d' ')
countrycode=$(echo $opcountry | cut -f2 -d' ')
dbus-send --system --print-reply
--dest=com.nokia.phone.net/com/nokia/phone/net \
Phone.Net.get_operator_name byte:0 uint32:$opcode uint32:$countrycode | grep
string \
| awk '{print $2}' | tr -d \

  Kate, can we use this to hijack voice calls also? Like the SMS thing you

 There is not yet voice call support in QtMobility but you can get signal of
 incoming voice call using libtpsession. It then depends what do you mean
 hijack.
 You can Catch SMS or Voice call singal but with these methods you can't
 prevent other applications like Messaging Ui or Phone UI getting also
 notification of incoming SMS or Call.


Case in point, would it be possible to make an application for custom
ringtones for contacts? This is a request made very often by users of the
N900.

As you response readily implies a 'no', the 'not yet' means how long? I
mean, PR1.2 has something for it? Is it planned for some release, or what?
Wouldn't that be very very simple to code in the phone call library?

Sorry for being too inquisitive and I know Nokia does not give dates. But I
just want to know if it's worth spending my time on this issue.

 When you can catch indication of incoming call with number on it, you can
 play your custom ring tone but i am not sure, how you can easily prevent
 system ringtone playing.


I think the rough part wouldn't even be preventing the system ringtone from
playing, but controlling it the same way - e.g. stopping it if the call
stops and such.

 WIth these methods does not mean impossible but it needs more complicated
 methods. The call and SMS system is based on Telepathy framework.
 You can check rough diagram from http://tpsession.garage.maemo.org/ .
  With tpsession or qtmobility you can receive events that Telepathy is
 sending via dbus(...)


Thank you very much for the very enlightening message, Kate. Now I have some
trail to follow. Might be difficult, but if there is any way to do that, I
think it will eventually be figured out.

Hi, Benoît,

I followed your pain with the repositories in the mailing lists and i can
only say that I am sorry you gave up Maemo. I hope you could rethink your
decisions and continue developing PyGTKEditor, I am a sincere fan of your
awesome and easy application, but I won't be insisting on it because I see
you are already tired of all this.

I've bought PDAir rubberized case for the N900. It doesn't thicken the N900

 AFAIK, no API gives the SIM phone number, as this is an information
 which belongs to the mobile operator.
 Actually, the correspondance IMSI - SIM phone number is made at mobile
 operator side.

 I think that anti-theft mecanism can securely be based on IMSI swap
 detection.
 Phone number doesn't add any valuable information in this context.


Agreed, but try not to think as much as a software engineer and think as a
simple user. Some people just forget their number - and it's useful if they
can see it on the mobile, for telling other people. Some people carry a few
SIMs around, and this information - the phone number - is useful to them.

It might be that regular mobile phones use some kind of workaround to get
this information - like, say, getting the destination number when they get a
call - but nevertheless it is useful information that can be show to the
user.

So, really, no way to get it from the OS data?
