Actually, I'm working on it. Base part has been done. Currently, just adding more commands. But, I cannot release the code until 3 month after the release of the product. By the way, libqmi is just for QMI commands (controlling the modem). Tx/Rx data packets go though PPP. That's because qualcomm refused to release that part of information. > > > Nick Hibma >
