This is probably due to a bug or some missing things in libsamsung-ipc or samsung-ril. > Should I send my radio logs to the mailing list? We would also like to know what SIM card you used: - Is it a prepaid SIM card or does it go with a contract? - Which operator is it for, and in which country was it bought. - If it's relevant the associated operator offer. > What sensitive data should be removed from the radio logs before? IMEI, IMSI, and what you deem sensitive (your number, the number you try to call if it's private, etc). I need to find enough time to look into it, and also to be able to reproduce the issue. For reproducing the issue I started making a list of SIM cards[1] that are known not to work (and the SIM cards that work) on the wiki, in the hope of being able to find one that doesn't work. I also bought two prepaid cards in France (one for SFR, and one for Orange), but unfortunately they both seems to work. I know someone that has a non-working card but it's linked to a contract (it's not prepaid) and that persons lives far away. I've also looked into buying a prepaid Wind SIM card from Italy, but if I would have bought it, it would leave me with only one month to try to make it work again (as I probably wouldn't be able to recharge and they require you to recharge it every month). I'm looking for a SIM card that I can buy which: - is known not to work with Replicant - is prepaid (no contract) - doesn't cost too much money by obligating me to buy expensive recharges every month just to be able to use it. The two cards I bought require to be recharged every 6 months. Here I'm assuming that the modem does talk to the SIM but the RIL fails later like in [4]. So it's better to be able to reproduce the bug in the same circumstances. - ideally can be bought in France since I live there. Beside community management and patches review, my top priority for Replicant are: - Enable Replicant to build on GNU/Linux distributions that are approved by the FSF[2]. I've started investigating that. - Fix F-droid freedom issue: F-droid repository doesn't respect the Free software distributions guidelines[3]. - The bug(s) affecting SIM cards compatibility.
