<div dir="ltr">There have been some posts on the community list about people having success with FSO and GPRS using scripts from the wiki[1]. I seem to be having less luck. I'm running a fresh install of FSO from today's build (20080820).<br>
<br>I run the following dbus command to try to activate GPRS:<br># mdbus -s org.freesmartphone.frameworkd /org/freesmartphone/GSM/Device org.freesmartphone.GSM.PDP.ActivateContext <a href="http://wap.voicestream.com">wap.voicestream.com</a> x x<br>
<br><br>Using mdbus -s -l I observe the following GSM signals (among other noise):<br> [SIGNAL] org.freesmartphone.GSM.PDP.ContextStatus from :1.3 /org/freesmartphone/GSM/Device<br>(dbus.Int32(1), dbus.String(u'outgoing'), dbus.Dictionary({}, signature=dbus.Signature('sv')))<br>
