Hi Bogdan,
I've used all types of phones and
different networks - same result. If I capture the uplink then every time after a
few seconds I get "segmentation fault". My guess is that in a
controlled environment it's going to work, but with a live one, where you have a
lot of arfcn (on a quick scan I get about 50 on my location) it's unlikely to work.
well, the success could depends from many things:
- wich cable are you using: FTDI or CP2102;
- which phone you have tried: sometimes the jack on C1xx could be not so clean or used and
it could create problems of communication at high baudrates.
- the environment that you are using: public network, as i saw from my tests, is quite
horrible to make tests (eg. arfcn hopping).
Using a DP-L10 and modifying the AFC value, seems to work well on public netwroks, even
if, sometimes it get stuck: problem related with channel hopping/sync IIRC.
I used a Blackberry Test Field to disable EDGE and identify which ARFCN that doesn't
hop on GPRS: ( eg. this one is hopping, others may not [1] )
Obviously a private and controlled environment could give you the full percentage of
success.

Luca
