this is unfortunately not possible. You _have_ to start your phone
after you have started simtrace. Otherwise we would not observe PPS
and thus not know which bit/baud rates to use.

ok, interesting. I think its not really something we need to care about,
if it works reliably using good cables/hubs.

ok, great. I'm looking forward to any contributions / bug fixes. Thanks
a lot!
