I was able to get my debian to create the ttyUSB0 device for the
cingular 8125 smartphone
I was able to do this by upgrading to the rom 2.5 plus.
that was a struggle.
But now here is my next challange:
1. I am using a 8125 from cingular..i just would like to know if that
phone works or am i spinning my wheels. If there is another phone from
a US company that works..i would like to know about it..please.
I live in Nigeria so I don't know about the US or AT&T or Cingular
phones (well... i read about them on "duh intarweb!" :)). What I found
easy to setup was to use a GSM Modem via USB. You insert your SIM card
into the SIM slot and connect it via USB to your system and boom.
Are there GSM networks in the US that you can buy a SIM pack for? (I
hear GSM is not really popular there ). If you can acquire this, I'm
almost certain it will be the path to least resistance to use that with
a GSM modem.
Alternatively, you could look for products from one of these guys:
#modemtype = wavecom | premicell | siemens | siemens-tc35 | siemens-mc35
| falcom | nokiaphone | ericsson
(just incase you didn't guess, I stole that from the kannel.conf).
My USB Modem happens to work with the siemens-mc35 config (which is
really a siemens-tc35). So you could try to work backwards by searching
for phones which are identified as such.
good luck,
Essien
Can you give me some commands that i can use on it..to get that answer?
I already tried some generic stuff on the web..no luck.
2. Is there another phone from att or cingular that works with kannel??
3. Can i get the config files for that setup ???
4. The minicom i have tried to issue the commands..produced nothingt..is
there something else that i can use that is easier? or something i can
handle????
I am under a tight deadline..any help would be greatly appricated.
thanks
