Success! I tested the new version of the code with my Curve 8320, and I can
confirm that the IPmodem Special packets no longer occur with every bulk
write transfer, and the device does not crash even at high speeds. I
transfered about 5MB worth of data at the max rate (26KB/sec) without any
trouble. Also, it seems to me that the Blackberry itself is a little more
responsive now during data transfers. Before it felt like the UI would get a
little sluggish during periods of heavy traffic. If the special packets were
the result of errors triggered by incorrect initialization, then the
sluggishness could have been due to the CPU getting bogged down with all the
excess error handling.
Anyway, this seems to have done the trick. I think you can safely remove the
debug code that was added previously. Thanks a lot everyone everyone for your
hard work.
Now if I can just get ppp(8) to handle those damn double quotes properly...
