One API sure. Maybe on multiple services. Honestly, I don't see why
this would be such a burden for PA to watch 2 dbus services instead of
1. From oFono perspective it would make more sense to keep the HSP part
a separate daemon. I could be convinced otherwise if it is indeed a big
burden for PA...

Funny. "It is used but not suitable"?

Okay. But, just FYI, at the time there was no hw that could do such
on-the-fly conversions, so this use case wasn't considered/implemented.
There's really no reason why we couldn't extend our APIs to handle this.

True. In retrospect we probably should have used strings. But it was
assumed that vendor extensions would go via the Bluetooth SIG Assigned
Numbers facility. Anyhow, we can always add a 'Register2' method that
could take codecs as a string array or a combination of strings & ints.
And if Register2 was used, then use 'NewConnection2' with a signature
that supports passing in vendor codecs and whatever else that might be
needed.

There was no need, we automatically defaulted to using Wide band if
available. Third party codecs are a new use case (for oFono HFP), so
would require an API extension.

I think all of these are feasible to support under the current oFono
structure, either via plugins or API extensions.

I have added the PAP context activation log file from ofono to this email
as well as I did in the previous email. Please find it attached. It also
fails at the same phase: "gatppp.c:ppp_enter_phase() 2"
Probably I need to try to dump the ppp connection and analyze it with
WireShark. Any ideas will be appreciated.
Yours sincerely,

New phonesim release including Qt5 support?
by Simon Schmeisser
Hi,
I'm a member of the Plasma Mobile team and we are currently trying to
get our messaging and phone stack working. Having a distribution
packaged version of phonesim available would simplify things a lot for
us. However distributions are currently dropping Qt4 support and there
has been no release since Jonah Brüchert introduced support for Qt5 last
year.
So in short, could you please do a new release of phonesim?
Thanks and regards
Simon

Quectel EC200T USB: Problems with context activation
by Sergei Golubtsov
Hello,
I am trying to add support for the Quectel EC200T USB modem. This modem
uses the option USB serial driver in the kernel.
As other Quectel modems, this one uses the atmodem ofono driver.
I cannot overcome the problem of context activation. It fails at
"ofono/gatchat/gatppp.c:ppp_enter_phase() 2" after a minute.
At the same time, I can successfully use pppd. Both pppd and ofono use the
chap authentication method.
Please find logs and the patch attached.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
Yours sincerely,
Sergei Golubtsov.
