First, check that you are not in a gsm850-only zone. The TI Calypso modem has problems with 850; they are looking into fixing this. I'm in a gswm850 only zone and I am very sad. When you say "could communicate with the network" what do you mean? I was able to read off my service provider's name, sometimes (AT+COPS?), but was never able to get a carrier signal to actually make a call (ATD). Can you post a transcript of one of these sessions? Here is my transcript: AT-Command Interpreter ready AT OK AT+CFUN=1 OK AT+CPIN="1234" [this PIN is constant for all Rogers SIM cards, appearently] ERROR AT+COPS [repositioned the cursor to the start of the line and hung for a while, then put a newline and:] OK AT+COPS=? [slowly waiting...] +COPS: (2, "ROGERS", "ROGERS", "302720") OK AT+COPS? +COPS: 0,0,"ROGERS" OK ATD NO CARRIER ATD+1XXXXXXXXXX NO CARRIERAT+COPS OK AT+COPS? +COPS: 0,0,"Rogers Wireless" OK ATD NO CARRIER Some relevant links: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Manually_using_SMS#GSM_Modem_Setup http://bugzilla.openmoko.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=256 <-- an old bug http://bugzilla.openmoko.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=788 <-- a new bug involving the serial/gsm multiplexing which you might run in to (can hardlock the neo if you're not careful) -Nick
