<ul></ul><p>The setup look fine as per your description.</p>
I'm wondering (sorry for the basic qustions):
<ul>
<li>did you re-start the modem after changing the SIM/</li>
<li>are you running the Ubuntu natively or in a VM? The latter is discourged due to timing implications.</li>
<li>did you ever try with any other modem/phone, just to see if it's specific to that?</li>
<li>what specific Quectel modem are you using (I have a variety here, and could try to reproduce)?</li>
<li>if you have one of the Osmocom-style 2.54mm USB uart cables available, it would be<br />interesting to see what's happening on the serial port of the SIMtrace2 device</li>
</ul>
In general, the ideal sequence of starting a trace should be:
<ul>
<li>make all physical connections but don't power up modem yet</li>
<li>start the simtrace2-sniff (and optionally wireshark)</li>
<li>power up the modem as the last step</li>
</ul>

<ul></ul><p>Hi Harald,</p>
<p>Thank you fot your prompt response.</p>
<p>The sequence of powering on makes a difference, I just did a quick test and had output from the sniff command (I thought I had done a reset before, but now I'm in doubt). However the query for IMSI and ICCID still fails, but with other error message.</p>
<p>To get back to your previous questions: I'm using the big Quectel development board (LTE & UMTS EVB kit) with a BG96 module attached to it. I also tried an Samsung S6 by the way, but I used a different chinees flat cable due to the form factor of the SIM, and I didn't check the pincompatibility (although I think it is hard to have a different layout on the cable). I'm running Ubuntu natively no VM involved. I don't have the UART cable available, but I can look into that if there is still a need for it.</p>
<p>First I'm going to take a look to the output and try to understand what the current status is. Thanks again!</p>

<p>Any update on this? Did you manage to get it working after all? Is there still something we can help with?</p> SIMtrace 2 - Support #4482: New SIMtrace v2 board not doing anythinghttps://osmocom.org/issues/4482?journal_id=218322021-04-06T01:24:12Zlaforge
