While we now have this Qualcomm device network operational running Meego 1.1 with a
modified oFono 0.34 branch, we are continuing with its development and merging in more
recent oFono changesets into our internal builds. Consequently, we can provide some test
feedback but as yet this device is not commercially available at present. As a result,
there are limitations on specific details that we can provide, for example, proprietary
vs. the device's standardized CDMA/GSM command interfaces. However, we will attempt to
provide the details you require around our most recent SMS-PDU implementation when we send
out our API reference shortly..
That said I can think of several aspects to help address the above and that we may want to
discuss here, namely:
1) Since this device has dual radios operating in active/standby mode, the use of distinct
virtual TTYs for serperate GSM & CDMA signalling that are then multiplexed into a
common physical interface and
2) A "shim" layer within this common physical interface which allows proprietary
commands to be "externalize" where appropriate while also correctly propagating
dual-mode baseband/radio state back to the oFono stack.
While these aspects are obviously driver specific we think they are interesting to start
with as they represent various trends moving forward and we would value getting
people's input..
Regards and I look forward to your response..
