Hi Rohit, Please do not top-post on this mailing list.
Isn't the master branch at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/network/ofono/ofono.git/ supposed to support Android RILD based modems ? My understanding says even MediaTek modems should be covered under this. The code at location
oFono upstream has support for ril based modems yes. It has only been tested with Intel SoFiA devices. There are no guarantees that other modems work.
https://github.com/rilmodem/ofono <https://github.com/rilmodem/ofono> is based on ofono version 1.12 while the latest ofono code version is 1.19.
Canonical (and Jolla, and maybe other companies) maintain their own forks of oFono for use with their distribution / devices / modems / firmware combinations. However, the bulk of the rilmodem driver should be the same, with differences mostly attributed to various firmware/manufacturer specific behavior.
I don't want to work on multiple versions of ofono. Could you elaborate on why such a difference ? Not sure what special support is present at location https://github.com/rilmodem/ofono <https://github.com/rilmodem/ofono> which is not present on master branch of ofono (Official). It would be great if you could put some light onto this.
Unfortunately, even with RIL defining 'some sort of standard', the behavior varies widely between firmware/manufacturer. Many operations are accomplished via manufacturer specific RIL extensions, or even by hacking the Android telephony services that sit above rild. Canonical guys (e.g. Alfonso) might have some experience with MediaTek devices. So be nice to them ;), but there are no guarantees that their modem / firmware / vendor-ril is the same as yours.
The mtk/mtk2 driver that Alfonso mentioned is not in the official upstream branch, nor likely to ever be. You will need to perform your own due diligence to understand the implications for your particular project.
