manekineko | rpierce99_: you're on CDMA right? When using hyc's rils did you ever manage to configure it so that it properly shows operator name? | 00:51 |
---|---|---|
rpierce99_ | yeah, you have to throw /data/eri.xml in place | 00:51 |
manekineko | oh must have missed that, is it documented in the threads somewhere? | 00:52 |
manekineko | though XDA is down at the moment | 00:52 |

rpierce99_ | http://pastebin.com/29q4WaHQ | 00:53 |
rpierce99_ | that's the file, 2 things to edit for yourself in there | 00:53 |
rpierce99_ | the first is RoamingIndicator | 00:53 |
manekineko | awesome, thanks | 00:54 |
manekineko | only thing this affects is the display I assume? | 00:54 |
rpierce99_ | you have to look at your radio logcat and find what your carrier is setting roaming indicator to | 00:54 |
rpierce99_ | and put it in place of the 1 | 00:54 |
manekineko | are you on Sprint? | 00:54 |
rpierce99_ | yes | 00:54 |
rpierce99_ | most peoples roaming indicator seems to be 128 | 00:54 |
manekineko | I am too, would it be the same for both of us? | 00:54 |
rpierce99_ | i think if you only have 1 defined it will just use it | 00:55 |
rpierce99_ | so you might not have to do anything with it | 00:55 |
manekineko | hmm what's the purpose of that number? | 00:55 |
rpierce99_ | not really sure, it's part of the spec, the low numbers mean simple stuff like "Roaming Indicator On" and "Roaming Indicator Off" but the high numbers are reserved, carriers can do whatever they like | 00:56 |
manekineko | yeah, I'm 128 as well | 00:57 |
rpierce99_ | so change that, and change the EriText to whatever you like | 00:57 |
rpierce99_ | then adb push it into /data as eri.xml | 00:57 |
manekineko | worked like a charm, much thanks | 00:59 |
manekineko | strikes me as odd that this file is in /data | 01:01 |
rpierce99_ | the /data version is a user override | 01:01 |
rpierce99_ | there is another, binary version, in /system | 01:01 |
manekineko | ah that makes sense | 01:01 |
rpierce99_ | kind of a neat customization option for personalizing, but annoying for trying to make a generic build | 01:03 |
rpierce99_ | i guess we just just put a few entries in, 1, 128, etc and have them all say XDAndroid or something | 01:03 |
rpierce99_ | not really sure, not my bag | 01:04 |
manekineko | could have sworn fake-GSM mode correctly displayed Sprint as my carrier | 01:06 |
*** rpierce99_ has quit IRC | 01:06 | |
manekineko | or am I dreaming that up | 01:06 |
*** rpierce99 has joined #xdandroid | 01:06 | |
manekineko | could have sworn fake-GSM mode correctly displayed Sprint as my carrier, or am I dreaming that up? | 01:06 |
manekineko | if I wasn't dreaming, wonder where that read the carrier name from | 01:06 |
rpierce99 | nope, in gsm mode Android reads carrier from the tower | 01:06 |
rpierce99 | which leads to people seeing the wrong carrier when roaming or when on a tower that was recently acquired, etc | 01:07 |
rpierce99 | for whatever reason, in cdma mode, they let the carrier just hard code it | 01:07 |
manekineko | ah, gotcha | 01:07 |
rpierce99 | so no matter what you always see your carrier name | 01:07 |
rpierce99 | i'm guessing because cdma is a lot less network-friendly | 01:08 |
rpierce99 | gsm, you swap sims and roam free | 01:08 |
hyc | I'm actually not sure that the names come from the tower | 01:08 |
manekineko | oh? | 01:08 |
hyc | try AT+COPN | 01:08 |
hyc | you'll see a long list of operator names hardcoded into the modem | 01:08 |
rpierce99 | easier said than done, i'll take your word for it | 01:08 |
rpierce99 | :) | 01:08 |
hyc | if you installed my hacked libril.so, you can send any command you want | 01:09 |
hyc | that was my "fun with the radio" thread on xda | 01:10 |
manekineko | so with the modified RIL, does XDAndroid show any indication when you say, roam onto Verizon? | 01:10 |
rpierce99 | yeah i saw it, i've been busy the last week or so hacking my plugbox, haven't had as much time for android | 01:10 |
manekineko | heh I've been making a bit of concerted effort to decrease my playing with XDAndroid time | 01:10 |
hyc | sure, you get a roaming indicator | 01:10 |
hyc | cutting back on xdandroid? where's your time going? :P | 01:11 |
manekineko | the amount of time I do end up posting or in the chat rooms is directly proportional to how much I'm procrastinating | 01:11 |
manekineko | haha | 01:11 |
hyc | I'm trying to cut back too | 01:11 |
hyc | wrap up all the loose ends I tripped over | 01:11 |
manekineko | sounds like things are getting pretty close with the ril | 01:12 |
hyc | I had a running system image, but I just tried to install it on another SD card and now it just loops in bootanimation | 01:12 |
*** rpierce99_ has joined #xdandroid | 01:12 | |
hyc | so recompiling the whole image again. woopie | 01:12 |
manekineko | heh I assumed you looked at the logs to see what it was doing first? | 01:13 |
hyc | yeah, PowerManager service kept dying | 01:13 |
hyc | nothing at all related to anything I've touched. | 01:13 |

manekineko | after getting this properly working, I guess the mystery of why I saw a black space on my notification bar on Gingerbread has been solved | 01:18 |
manekineko | the roaming indicator is just a transparent black triangle | 01:18 |
hyc | yeah, thot so | 01:18 |
manekineko | which on the black Gingerbread notification bar is just a black transparent black triangle | 01:18 |
hyc | mmm. very emo. | 01:18 |
manekineko | kinda weird that the art asset is included at all if they didn't update it | 01:18 |
manekineko | emo, I bet that's what Google was going for | 01:19 |

manekineko | oh btw hyc, the CDMA rhodiums are locked against US GSM carriers | 01:39 |
manekineko | so it's going to be a bit tricky finding someone in the right position to test transitioning from CDMA to GSM on the world phones | 01:40 |
hyc | yeah... | 01:43 |
hyc | tho I've seen that some people unlock theirs anyway | 01:44 |
manekineko | yeah, they're unlockable, but I don't know how many people there are out there with that setup | 01:44 |
manekineko | had to pay to unlock | 01:44 |
hyc | also I have a couple of European SIM cards here myself | 01:44 |
hyc | someone who actually wants to use their phone as a worldphone is likely to have them | 01:44 |
manekineko | hmm that's true, if push comes to shove, I bet I could find some of those somewhere to help test | 01:46 |
manekineko | though would that be sufficient? does every random Euro SIM card have a US roaming agreement? | 01:46 |
manekineko | such that they could connect to the towers and see if everything is working? | 01:46 |
hyc | probably not every | 01:46 |
hyc | I've made sure to enable roaming on my european cards | 01:47 |

JesusFreak316 | I've been wondering: what's with the "NO LG! NO" in the topic? | 11:37 |
*** helicopter88 has joined #xdandroid | 11:39 | |
rpierce99 | i'll go out on a limb and say because xdandroid doesn't work on LG and at some point there were a lot of people asking about lG | 11:43 |
*** helicopter88 has quit IRC | 11:44 | |
JesusFreak316 | That's what I figured but I wouldn't think LG would be the issue. Samsung users would me more likely IMO. | 11:44 |
JesusFreak316 | But if it happened it happened. | 11:45 |
rpierce99 | usually things don't just end up in channel topics randomly | 11:45 |
