It has a 3G modem, but doesn't communicate with AT commands, and (obviously) does not have a RIL shared library written for it. It is a GPRS (on UMTS) connection. However instead of writing a RIL that will communicate with phonet (which is a network interface that communicates with the phonet/isi modem, and has its own protocol), and having to learn how to communicate directly over it, at the moment we are working on making Android work with ofono (including at some point writing a RIL that will communicate with ofono using d- bus). The modem is powered and network registered by ofono, and when you start the data connection it gives you a network interface - gprs0. (And then you make sure the gprs0 interface is configured (eg. ifconfig gprs0 gprs.ip.address.here) and add a default route in the ip tables - route add default dev gprs0) When we make ofono communicate with RILD, this will obviously not matter - so I was just looking for a temporary solution while this is happening - since it is quite annoying have a lot of apps (including built-in ones) refuse to work properly because the ConnectivityManager reports no connection. > Thanks > Robert Cheers, Bradley Smith -- unsubscribe: [email protected] website: http://groups.google.com/group/android-porting
