| 26 | 6 | unrznbl | * 04/10/2020 |
| 27 | ** wrote some CFEngine policy to setup raspberry pi as nitb |
||
| 28 | ** struggled with NTP issues for a while but finally after some good config and a nano3g reboot things are connected! |
||
| 29 | ** trying to make calls/send SMS fails right now. Will email mailing list with logs and config to get some clues |
||
| 30 | ** really need this network to support my testing of ofono on postmarketos on hammerhead (LG Nexus 5) and my fork of termux-api which supports sms/mms |
||
| 31 | ** plan on trying to find some open source MMS gateway to integrate with osmocom nitb (as mentioned previous update) |
||
| 32 | ** will try and publish the CFEngine policy and write a blog post about the experience |
||
| 33 | |||
| 34 | 4 | unrznbl | * 03/04/2020 |
| 35 | 5 | unrznbl | ** restarting my efforts to use this setup. Working on a raspberry pi with packages to setup 3g network for |
| 36 | ** wireless connectivity between a kindle DX and other devices in the home |
||
| 37 | ** testing sms/mms/group/image/attachements with my hack for command line support in termux android app: https://github.com/craigcomstock/termux-api/tree/smsmms-send-receive |
||
| 38 | *** will need to find something for MMS on the backend |
||
| 39 | ** hope to have 2-3 devices working with linux/ofono/postmarketos to test with |
||
| 40 | *** hammerhead |
||
| 41 | *** surnia (MSM8916 supports mainline but needs device support) |
||
| 42 | *** Alcatel Go Flip (4044W, MSM8909), will work on after surnia mainline is done |
||
| 43 | ** haven't even worked on 2G mediatek baseband/re lately so will tackle that FIRST before getting into 3G |
||

| 45 | 4 | unrznbl | * 10/31/2018 - rebuilt all NITB sources, configured DHCP, NTPD, got ip.access nano3g connected to nitb laptop and able to register phones on network. sms/calls don't work yet. Phones get kicked off periodically. |
