Hi!
I'd like for my device to automatically connect to 3G data in roaming
wherever the GSM network permits it. I'd very much like to set this up
as default during manufacturing regardless of the SIM inserted. ofono
version 1.21 (debian buster).
Isn't this quite old? I think we're up to 1.29 and we don't do releases
that often these days...
I can tell ofono to enable roaming manually - either via the config file
(e.g. /var/lib/ofono/248030010014875/gprs) or dbus interface (e.g.
dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.ofono /quectel_0
org.ofono.ConnectionManager.SetProperty string:"RoamingAllowed"
variant:boolean:true), but it does not seem to be stored persistently.
After a reboot ofono has disabled roaming again and the config file
holds "RoamingAllowed=0".
If the method call is successful, then RoamingAllowed should be updated
on disk. E.g. see src/gprs.c, we invoke storage_sync() right after
updating it.
Perhaps try running strace on ofonod and see why this fails?
So my questions are:
1. can I set up ofono to always permit data connections in roaming?
Not at the moment. oFono never had a concept of a main configuration
file. But perhaps something like that could be introduced specifically
for this use case...
2. if not, can I at least store RoamingAllowed persistently per SIM card?
This should already work...
As context: working on a 3G-equipped gateway device, factory-installed
with a roaming-enabled SIM card and typically shipped to a foreign
country (mostly within EU where data roaming incurs no penalty). It's
rather desirable that 3G comes online without requiring any setup
whatsoever once the gateway is powered on in destination country.
