[DEV] GSM phone calls on Nexus 7 3G

[cmstlist]

Does anyone have access to the new Asus Fonepad? Maybe we can dump the ROM/modem from there and see if it can fit the Nexus 7?

The FonePad is also running on an Intel Atom Z2420 CPU. So one should not expect ROMs to be anywhere near compatible.

Most modern phones(even some of the dumb phones by nokia) are actually having 2 independent computers running side by side. The Atom is most likely for the 'PDA' part, the actual 'phone/modem' may still be the same as N7(basically the baseband or whatever people call it).

Not saying it can be done, just that the Atom may not be the problem. I remember people try to enable the call saw some form of error when it is doing the dialing like 'ATD...' ? It is a typical modem command like in the old days where we can use a fax modem to send fax(i.e. the host program can be running on linux/windows/dos but the modem can still function so long you pass it the correct command and data).

Hey,
along with the 4.2.2 source, google has now made the Nexus 7 3G fully AOSP supported and provided all the binaries
i wonder if the gsm binaries might help with better understanding of how the modem, and eventually even gsm calls might work

i don't have experience with this nor am i a dev, but i felt like this belongs here, so excuse me posting here

This may just mean they released the device tree and proprietary binaries... Which we basically already have.

I've been meaning to release a 4.2.2 version of GwT. Will look into pulling down the new master branch.

I wouldn't get too excited.

But they list the GSM part
"Camera, Sensors, DRM, GSM --- ASUS "
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/drivers#tilapiajdq39

But I'm not skilled to see what's in there. I only see "extract-asus-tilapia.sh"
Only few KBytes

 

[sabujsahi]

can try it into my custom rom?

 

[aza510]

Hi, anyone knows what is next step to enable phone calls ?

Im not a Linux expert, but it seems that the ".sh" is a script,
if i run it as a script with command "./extract-asus-tilapia.sh" via terminal
the function will be enabled ?? Or it is too simple ?

Hope to get a solution soon... because i bought Nexus 3G to use it also as phone with bluetooth...

Then you got this device for the wrong reason, because the extracting script is (I believe) just to extract the different images from the device like system, boot, kernel, ect. Also please follow the rules, if you aren't a contributing developer then go to the discussion thread not the development thread.

Is everyone using a "borrowed" sim? or are you guys actually linking your imei with a 4G smartphone plan? Seems like AT&T could be that anal.

And with risk of being an ass..

The phone call situation does not have to do with the APN settings, its a limitation within the hardware, developers are trying to work around it but it does not seem likely that we will be getting calls on the nexus 7.

 

[chris.pwelsh]

Send me the N7/3G/324.2.2 modified framework-res.apk?

Hi,

I'm having a hell of a time recompiling the framework-res file? Tried it on my mac and pc with no luck. I have read howtos and tried for 1/2 a day with no success and have run out of time.

Can someone please help me out by pointing me to a downloadable signed copy of framework-res.apk> All I want is to enable the dialer. Tethering would be good but that out of the scope of this thread.

Many thank
Chris

Care to link the developer that said that? As far as I read, this was not confirmed.

It was not confirmed, but Synman said that this is likely the case. A few pages back he basically said don't hold your breathes.

Certainly confirmed. For example, GwT is packaged with the full 300k APN list and way way back I tried every combination of APNs imaginable, including entries such as the ones linked above.

No, You cannot - it does not work like Tabs. Don't buy Nexus if You need this feature. (Nie, nie da się z tego dzwonić jak z Tabów - nie kupuj Nexusa jeśli tego potrzebujesz).
