| henk | piggz[m]: I don’t mean to annoy or stress you, but do you happen to have any further input? it’s just that I only have a few more days (two of which are a sunday and a holiday) before 3G will be switched off and it will be unsure how reliably I can still make phone calls and I don’t want to be in that situation for too long a time. | 08:14 |
|---|---|---|
| henk | if I have to get a new phone, ideally I would do so today so that I have the remaining two days to set it up (: | 08:18 |
| toastal____ | > Error message: Could not resolve host: repo.sailfishos.org | 12:11 |
| toastal____ | I shouldn’t get this with just a pkcon update should I? | 12:11 |
| FireFly | I'd check if you can resolve the domain name on a computer on the same network, outside of the phone.. at least, it resolves fine from here | 12:20 |
| toastal____ | dig +short repo.sailfishos.org | 12:50 |
| toastal____ | works | 12:50 |
| toastal____ | Both on phone & laptop | 12:51 |
| attah | What phone and OS version is it anyway? If ancient, it might be a certificate thing. | 12:52 |
| piggz[m] | henk: currently trying on my gs290.... | 13:32 |
| henk | piggz[m]: oh cool (: | 13:34 |
| FireFly | henk: would 2G/GSM not work as a fallback for calls for you? (at least 3G's been shut down in germany for some years and I haven't had issues with XA2 or 10ii running SFOS there) | 13:37 |
| henk | FireFly: no, 2G is already shut down | 13:37 |
| FireFly | ah... ow | 13:37 |
| attah | That's odd, 3G usually goes first | 13:38 |
| attah | Where is this? | 13:38 |
| henk | attah: switzerland | 13:39 |
| henk | when I switch to 2G it keeps "searching" for a network … | 13:41 |
| attah | Kinda makese senss having their stuff together and not an unknown amount of legacy stuff | 13:41 |
| henk | and then says "Not registered" | 13:41 |
| henk | well, they do try :D | 13:41 |
| piggz[m] | henk: im in a chat with my network .. the GS29 isnt working here either, so wonder if it needs enabled by the provider | 13:50 |
| henk | piggz[m]: my provider wrote to me, loosely translated "your device supports VoLTE but it might not be activated. please check your settings." so I doubt it needs enabling with my provider. but I’m not sure I follow what this is really about (: | 14:01 |
| piggz[m] | according to idmobile, the gs290 isnt supported here, and they seem reluctant/cant enable 4g calling for it | 14:02 |
| piggz[m] | though, the volla quintus is also not listed, but that does work | 14:02 |
| henk | huh, ok | 14:05 |
| piggz[m] | henk: not an ideal idea .. but you could try flashing vollaos/lineage to see if 4g calling works there ... that would rule out the phone | 14:08 |
| piggz[m] | not getting very far with web chat support :/ | 14:10 |
| henk | piggz[m]: yeah, I guess I could but that’s a lot of work, especially backing everything up and getting my phone back to "normal" afterwards … | 14:15 |
| henk | my current most likely approach is: buy a google pixel and switch to android … there is just too many apps that would make my life here more comfortable that I have been playing with this idea for a long time already /-: | 14:16 |
| piggz[m] | attah: youre a network guy right, how does this stuff work? | 14:23 |
| attah | IMS is one level above me unfortunately | 14:24 |
| attah | (and quite the mess) | 14:24 |
| attah | still somewhat surprising that they can and would want to prevent phones from registering for it | 14:26 |
| attah | it is really just SIP with clown-shoes | 14:28 |
| piggz[m] | i dont even know why the quintus works ... its not in the provided list either .. but hey-ho | 14:30 |
| piggz[m] | i will try it on the mimameid, the middle generation | 14:30 |
| attah | What do we know about the applicability of Jolla's VoLTE enabler for these phones? | 14:30 |
| attah | Or is there something else doing the magic? | 14:30 |
| piggz[m] | this is using the generic ofono binder mtk plugin for mediatek modems | 14:33 |
| piggz[m] | works at least on some devices | 14:33 |
| piggz[m] | so, i had to give up with my provider, they were unwilling to escalate it as they say the device is not on their list | 14:34 |
| attah | aha, so mtk doesn't need tickling in some particular way | 14:34 |
| attah | If only the signalling could be traced easily, then you could see what fails | 14:35 |
| henk | would the ofono logs help? | 14:37 |
| attah | possibly | 14:37 |
| henk | piggz[m]: I /queried you the link, do you think I can share them publicly? | 14:37 |
| attah | one step removed from what i look at every day, but should be good | 14:38 |
| attah | I'm going afk for the rest of today in not too long | 14:39 |
| henk | or anyone else can confirm there is nothing sensitive in there. mal already said to not share the IMEI so I redacted that. but not sure there is anything else … | 14:40 |
| attah | personally i'd not be fuzzed over sharing IMEI to people like piggz and mal - but flaunting it publicly is maybe borderline | 14:40 |
| attah | it's basically a mac address | 14:41 |
| * henk nods | 14:41 | |
| piggz[m] | so .. notkit implemented the ofono plugin, and just told me that the older gs290 uses a different interface which isnt implemented | 14:41 |
| piggz[m] | so, not much point trying until/unless that is done | 14:42 |
| henk | oh, ok. I’m not happy this is the case but I am happy that I have certainty now! | 14:42 |
| henk | so, a new phone with android it will definitely be then, for me … | 14:42 |
| piggz[m] | you could go sony sailfish ;) | 14:44 |
| attah | it's doing *something* with ims registration | 14:44 |
| piggz[m] | henk: also, the new volla quintus does work for 4g calling (for me) | 14:45 |
| attah | and there is a fallback to 3g... and that's all the plaintext that looked relevant in 30 seconds | 14:47 |
| * x2s looks for a brick and finds his Xperia V. | 14:47 | |
| attah | i'll be off now, happy hacking | 14:47 |
| piggz[m] | henk: i can also confirm the volla phone 22 works and registers ok | 14:54 |
| piggz[m] | so, just the first volla with the issue | 14:55 |
| henk | attah: thanks for taking a look! | 17:13 |
| henk | piggz[m]: meh, ok, so this is going to become a non-phone phone, it seems :D thank you very much for looking into it this quickly, appreciate it! | 17:14 |
| x2s | I hope the V port is ready, when they start switching off 2G and 3G here. | 17:35 |
| Mister_Magister | mal: I've touched the grass today and my HBM fix works great so would be nice if PR was merged | 17:51 |
| henk | if anyone has good advice or resources about migrating stuff from sailfish a android (on a different device), I would appreciate that, though I guess that’s not a very popular topic :D | 19:09 |
