Hi, An experimental support of 3G USB modem has been pushed into donut-x86 branch of the git server. Use repo sync to get it.
The tested 3G USB modem is Huawei E160. Just plugin the USB modem, then you should see the radio signal icon at top right corner becomes active. Now you can use Messaging to send or recive short messages.
To test 3G internet connection, you have to use command line. Use Terminal (or Alt-F1) to run "start ppp". Then use "netcfg" to check if the connection is established.
Since it's an experimantal feature, some settings are hardcoded. If your 3G modem is not the same as mime, you may have to modify them by hand before building the iso:
* Driver for 3G USB modem is set to "option" module. (in 0-auto-detect script, EXTMOD variable) * 3G internet port is set to /dev/ttyUSB0 (in system/core/rootdir/etc/ppp/peers/gprs) * 3G MMS port is set to /dev/ttyUSB1 (in vendor/asus/eeepc/init.rc, service ril-daemon)
I have been trying the 3G modem support in Android.
Setup: - eeepc 1005HA - Huawei E180 with subscribion to the network provider "3" in Denmark - android-x86 1.6r2 (and a corresponding build from the repository)
My experience so far is that I am missing the possibility to provide the SIM PIN. I have however circumvented this problem by entering the PIN by Ubuntu minicom and then boot into Android. When I then issue start ppp and inspects the log I see the ppp PAP/CHAP exchange (see log below), but it doesn't bring up the data connection fully. As the PAP/CHAP exchange is running the basic kernel modules are loaded OK, and the serial devices ttyUSB0 ttyUSB1 is running.
I can get a 3G connection from ubuntu 9.10 with the same hardware.
Could I have some help for the questions below it would ease my trouble shooting.
1) I believe that the chat script in /etc/ppp/gprs-connect-chat need to be modified to fit my 3G network provider. Correct ?
2) Is it possible to turn on some logging to see the initial AT command handshake with the modem ? How ?
3) The menus won't allow me to enter an APN. Where should the APN name occur ? In the initial AT handshake, or during the PPP initialization ?
4) If I try to connect without entering the PIN prior to starting Android I get the following fault: [ 124.404330] rild[2590]: segfault at 4 ip 80b019e1 sp 100ffc34 error 4 in libreference-ril.so[80b00000+6000] How can I locate this in the source ?
5) What are missing to be able to enter the PIN through the telephony application ?
6) Are there any plans to move the 3G code to eclair ? Will there be any obvious obstacles ? Some advice how I could do it myself ?

no way, i doesn't work
i can see bus 001 device 005: ID 12d1:1446 with lsusb when i connect the usb
3g card but it only mounts it as sd card (there is an sd inside with
drivers)
i have no active radio signal icon at top right corner.
i compiled from git but just noticed it has the 2.6.29 kernel
how do i tell to use newer kernel at compile time ?
i did:
$ git checkout -b android-2.6.32 x86/android-2.6.32
and thought it would have been used this kernel since it is the newer one

I have made good progress on this. By disabling the SIM PIN on the
Huawei modem I am able to connect to my 3G provider.
According to my questions I have found some of the answers:
ad 1 + 3.)
The connect chat script /etc/ppp/gprs-connect-chat must be modified.
The APN must be inserted as the last parameter in the AT+CGDCONT=....
line.
A full implementation should insert the APN name from the settings
menu. How should this be done ?
ad 2.
All the logging from the telephony service goes to the radio log
buffer. To read the radio log buffer you may issue the command: logcat
-b radio. I find it convenient also to include the timestamp
information by adding the -v time option to the call, i.e. the final
log retrieval becomes:
logcat -b radio -v time -d
I would still be glad to have some feedback on my remaining questions.
Best regards

I'm trying with sim pin disabled but can't scan 3g networks. It says error
while scanning networks and that my sim does not allow connection.
Also can't modify gprs-connect-chat due to read only file

I didn't have success in scanning the networks from the telephony
application either, but the modem seems to be OK with this as long as
the preferred network matches the APN.
I am build the Android 1.6r2 equivalent from source so that I can
modify gprs-chat-connect.

It should be possible here too

Unfortunately, this is not a mobile phone.
Android-x86 uses a compressed filesystem
so it's absolutely read-only.
You can't modify it even you are root.

ok so i guees i have to
modify ./system/core/rootdir/etc/ppp/gprs-connect-chat before compiling
#/etc/ppp/gprs-connect-chat
# chat script for China Mobile, used HuaWei GTM900-B GPRS module.

can you pls confirm these questions ?
1) i can't scan mobile networks because the 3g usb pen doesn't have GSM
module, correct?
2) i don't need to set the APN since this script does it all (i tried
setting the APN but it does not save datas)

ad 1)
I havn't analysed the reason why we can't scan the network on the USB
modem. I believe that the generic ril isn't working properly together
with the USB modem. The generic-ril expect to have a full phone, but
the modem is missing the voice part and has the SIM and the datapart
only.
ad 2)
My experience is that I was able to have the ppp connection setup by
inserting the APN in the chat-script.

I am trying to connect with an e169 huawei modem. On the right upper
corner I have a signal in white (is it supposed to be green?)
My sim has a pin number I can't get rid of.
Is there an easy way to put the pin before trying to connect?

I am using a non-huawei 3G module.
How can I apply the driver patch to Android-x86 source for kernel re-
compilation?
Thanks,

I am trying to port the 3G code extensions from 1.6r2 to eclair.
I have done the following changes to eclair:
- included the drivers as listed for the EXTMOD in the 1.6r2 release
- included the /etc/ppp subtree from the 1.6r2 branch
- included the chat program as an external program
- updated init.rc with service definitions for ril and ppp
The ppp parts works fine, i.e. when I issue the command "start ppp" it
brings up the 3G connection.
However the RIL part isn't working as it does in 1.6r2. It claims
connection to /dev/ttyUSB1 , but the log doesn't show any log entries
from "AT" and it doesn't seems to get any answers from the 3G modem.
Am I missing some changes in the RIL ? (The source tree for /hardware/
ril in 1.6r2 and eclair are identical.)
