Thanks a lot for the reply. How can I use the dbus and get the values from the fone. For example.
I want to write a python code that will give the the IMEI number and manufacturer details of my fone. how can i do that. I understand that once i have any of the FSO or SHR etc I can do that. Cant i just do it now on my phone without using them. Isnt there any feature in 2008.12 that will let me query the dbus directly. Is the only option to install. I am sorry if I am asking so many questions but i really need to know as I am very interested in working on this phone. --- On Fri, 3/6/09, Al Johnson <[email protected]> wrote: > From: Al Johnson <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: How to install cli-framework on my Neo FreeRunner > To: [email protected] > Date: Friday, March 6, 2009, 11:31 AM > > -----Inline Attachment Follows----- > > 2008.12 uses elements of QtExtended > to provide its phone functionality.
