Moving from trac to a single redmine
by Holger Freyther 28 Dec '16

28 Dec '16

Hi guys, I think some of us would like to move to redmine and start using public tickets more frequently. So in case we move there are some topics to be discussed and I would like to start with a couple of them right now. Tickets: Redmine has a global linear sequence of ticket numbers. If we move from many tracs to a single redmine we can either: * not import tickets * only import from one project * deal with changing ticket numbers In terms of installations the GMR trac is broken in regard to tickets, there are some for SDR that are probably not being fixed anytime soon, baseband might be relevant and OpenBSC is unlikely to be relevant. I don't think we have ever used ticket reference in OpenBSC commit messages so in terms of OpenBSC having changing ticket numbers would not be a big deal. E.g. we could add a custom field with the old trac number? Wiki: We have external references that should be redirected to the new place. Is there any way besides maintaining a list in the apache2/nginx configuration and making redirects as we find broken references? Can we proactively manage this? Is anybody willing to come up with a script and nginx configuration for doing this? kind regards holger

Sniffing GPRS
by canarion 12 Dec '16

12 Dec '16

Hi, After compiling osmocom-bb and apply sylvain/burst_ind branch and gprs_multi.patch, I execute it and try to sniff gprs traffic. I loaded the layer1 into my C139 and I obtained an ARFCN code (883). When I run ccch_scan -a 883 I get the next result: opyright (C) 2010 Harald Welte <laforge(a)gnumonks.org> Contributions by Holger Hans Peter Freyther License GPLv2+: GNU GPL version 2 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html> This is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it.

Re: omsocombb not receiving calls

Hi, I didn’t find anything useful yet. Everything seems normal during the IMSI attach procedure (location updating request, authentication request/response, identity request/response …), I can call and send SMS normally but the phone doesn’t get paged in any way. It seems strange that no differences can be seen during the IMSI attach procedure while some sim cards do not work.

layer 1 port to nuttx-bb progress?
by Craig Comstock 12 Aug '16

12 Aug '16

I have fernvale-nuttx running on a couple of MTK6260-based watch phones and plan on working on porting layer1 to these devices. https://www.kosagi.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=407 I saw the most recent activity on nuttx-bb seems to be http://cgit.osmocom.org/nuttx-bb/log/?h=gnutoo/layer1-2015-wip wondering if anyone else is working on this elsewhere that we can coordinate? If there are any particular suggestions/hints/warnings please chime in so I make better progress and have less trouble when I submit pull requests and such. Cheers,Craig

layer2/3 ported to target? paging attack code?
by Craig Comstock 05 Aug '16

05 Aug '16

Hey, I finally watched Nico's talk "let me answer that for you" and heard him say he ported layer2/3 to target. Also found a mailing list message about him cleaning it up and putting it up on git and sending it to a few folks. Did that code ever get shared? Would be cool to play around with and is certainly something I would eventually want to accomplish for my project of making a phone that works by itself. -Craig

osmocombb paging group problem
by sami 01 Aug '16

01 Aug '16

Dear all, I have been testing the mobile app for some time but I faced a small problem where not all my sim cards work fine when listening to paging messages. I have seen the patch presented by Harald Welte and I printed the value of ‘tn’ and found out that it is always 0 whatever the IMSI of the sim card is. Did I miss something or is the paging group part still not implemented in the mobile app. I really appreciate any help.

Re: rx sensitivity issue
by Vadim Yanitskiy 01 Aug '16

Hi Robert, There are many possible issues, which can cause your problem. So, it would be good to see more details. Please, prepare two measurements using cell_log application: one inside any building, and another one outside. Attach both outputs from the cell_log and from the osmocon. I have several phones, and some of them have different RX signal level. I think, it's due to individual calibration tables, which aren't used in OsmocomBB firmware. BTW: if your phone's case is open, make sure that antenna is connected to the phone's board. With best regards, Vadim Yanitskiy.
