Dear All, I have a running BTS (based on SDR) and i can connect my phone to my network… do / learn some operations… I have a couple of sim cards and each time i want to connect to network with different sim i have to switch of mobile remove previous sim put new one etc etc …. Is there an application that will be running on PC and connected to my phone which will a kind of simulate sim and connect my phone to my network ? Avoiding me each time physically remove previous sim put new one etc etc … Would you be so kind and advise me please… Also another question — is there a «search» option in the archives : http://lists.osmocom.org/pipermail/openbsc/ http://lists.osmocom.org/pipermail/baseband-devel/ just not to post questions which already could have been answered…. -- Mario Lucas
The "mobile" app in the Osmocom-BB supports virtual SIM that you can set up in software, however you still need to have the Ki symmetric encryption key from which the temporal Kc keys are derived.
Other paremters are completely under your control.

in theory you could emulate the full sim card and do some software integration to combine https://git.osmocom.org/softsim/ with the card-emulation ('cardem') mode of the simtrace2 firmware.
more practical / complete, without additional software develpoment, you can use multiple smart card readers for your various SIM cards, and use osmo-remsim + simtrace2 cardem.
Howver, in reality you will still need to restart your phone as every time the sim changes, everything needs to be re-read from it. For most phones entering and leaving airplane mode also works.

unfortunately not. We are considering a migration to mailman3, whose new list archiver 'hyperkitty' provides this feature. but it's not very high on the priority list.
