Worked great on mobian with Megi's multi_boot img. I had to reboot the phone before the dmesg gave the updated information.

FYI 5 additional VoLTE profiles (in bold):

Edit: $mmcli --list-modems | grep -oP "(?<=Modem/)[0-9]+" to get correct modem 'number'

$mmcli -m 0 --command='AT+QMBNCFG="list"' (modem number may not be '0')

Edit: As per https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?...1#pid85971 from fdlamotte above command can be simplified using -m any instead of a number as there is only one modem in the Pinephone:
mmcli -m any --command=.....

Note 1,1 indicates Telstra for me (though not currently available to Telstra MVNOs so can't test).
The following AT commands could be of interest to you, not sure what defaults are.

# SelectVoLTE profile
AT+QMBNCFG="Select","Telstra-Commercial_VoLTE" (use relevant name for you)

# Deactivate active profile
AT+QMBNCFG="Deactivate"

# Configure MBN Automatic Selection Function
# Return current configuration
AT+QMBNCFG="AutoSel"

response: '+QMBNCFG: "Autosel",1' (enabled)
response: '+QMBNCFG: "Autosel",1' (disabled)

#Set to autosel
AT+QMBNCFG="AutoSel",<enable>
where <enable> 0 disable, 1 enable

# Enable calling over ip (VoLTE)
AT+QCFG="ims",1

# Check ims status
AT+QCFG="ims"

Response:
+QCFG: "ims",<value>,<volte_state>

<value>              IMS function configuration parameter
                0        The NV about IMS can be set by the configuration of the MBN file
                1        Enable IMS function
                2        Disable IMS function

<volte_state>      VoLTE state
                0        VoLTE is not ready
                1        VoLTE is ready

Edit: Don't believe this is needed as it is Set Phone Functionality command (might be needed to enable settings changes)
# Reboot the modem to apply the settings # THIS IS WRONG
AT+CFUN=1,1 # THIS SETS FULL PHONE FUNCTIONALITY AND RESETS THE ME
AT+CFUN=1,0 # this sets full (default) functionality (1) and does not reset the ME (0)

# Set Phone Functionality
AT+CFUN=<fun>[,<rst>]

<fun>          0      Minimum functionality
                   1      Full functionality (Default)
                   4      Disable the ME from both transmitting and receiving RF signals

<rst>          0      Do not reset the ME before setting it to <fun> functionality level.
                          This is the default setting when <rst> is not given.
                   1     Reset the ME. The device is fully functional after the reset.
                          This value is available only for <fun>=1.

Response:
OK
If there is an error related to ME functionality, response:
+CME ERROR: <err>

# Check Phone Functionality
AT+CFUN?

Response:
+CFUN: <fun>

<fun>          0      Minimum functionality
                   1      Full functionality (Default)
                   4      Disable the ME from both transmitting and receiving RF signals

End edit.

Write down your actual configuration values / settings before changing anything and don't blame me - I don't believe you can break anything permanently but things could stop working until you revert back to your current configuration, you have been warned.

Google is your friend for Quectel PDFs though I couldn't find one for the EG25-G.
Be aware of the m modem number increasing as modem sleeps / wakes up.
Be aware that " is used in the commands.
AT commands can also be sent using minicom or screen for example using /dev/ttyUSB2 (Mobian, not sure on other OSes).

I've tried uploading and 'Adding' MBN files (new profiles) from a Xiaomi Android phone but it failed (Optus and Vodafone), presumably due to not being signed correctly. I wonder what will happen in terms of future support / updates from Quectel.

For those that have installed and are USA based, any quality of life improvements that are noticeable post update? I see that my carrier is listed with a VoLTE profile on the shipped modem version, and as I don't call often didn't know if it would be worth attempting or better left alone for now.

I'm leaning more towards leaving it to test initially but wanted to see if anyone else could chime in.

Did the update on current pmOS just today (5.9.1), here's  the list of needed (additional) tasks for pmOS:

1) it's not possible to uncompress zstd by default :
Code:
pitrpp:~/Downloads/modem_fw$ tar xvf newfw.tar.zst
tar: invalid tar magic

pitrpp:~/Downloads/modem_fw$  tar -I zstd -xvf newfw.tar.zst
tar: unrecognized option: I
so install zstd
Code:
pitrpp:~/Downloads/modem_fw$ sudo apk add zstd
[sudo] password for p1trson:
(1/1) Installing zstd (1.4.5-r0)
Executing busybox-1.31.1-r19.trigger
OK: 1105 MiB in 499 packages


pitrpp:~/Downloads/modem_fw$ unzstd newfw.tar.zst
Code:
newfw.tar.zst       : 118108160 bytes
Code:
pitrpp:~/Downloads/modem_fw$ unzstd qfirehose_good.tar.zst
Code:
qfirehose_good.tar.zst: 409600 bytes

then untaring works

Code:
pitrpp:~/Downloads/modem_fw$ tar xvf newfw.tar
...
pitrpp:~/Downloads/modem_fw$ tar xvf qfirehose_good.tar
...

on pmOS you won't be able to just
Code:
pitrpp:~/Downloads/modem_fw/qfirehose_good$ sudo ./QFirehose -f ../newfw
sudo: unable to execute ./QFirehose: No such file or directory

install following:
Code:
apk add make
apk add gcc
apk add musl-dev
apk add linux-headers

then
Code:
pitrpp:/home/p1trson/Downloads/modem_fw/qfirehose_good# ./QFirehose -f ../newfw


verify the output
Code:
...

and reboot. verify the version via dmesg

after the updates, calls did not work as good as before ...

I tried disabling VoLTE usiing dcinoz commands, it now works as a charm (maybe we don't have the good profile or I couldn't find it ...)

also fyi you can use "mmcli -m any" if you don't want to search for your modem number (assuming you only have one modem Wink but it should be the case)

Hi,

I'm getting:
[035.180]: upgrade progress 100% 122659832/122437088
[035.180]: send finished
[035.180]: <log value="Finished sector address 0"/>
[035.181]: <response value="ACK" rawmode="false" />
[035.181]: <power value="reset" />
[035.181]: <log value="Inside handlePower() - Requested POWER_RESET"/>
[035.181]: <response value="ACK" />
[036.188]: inf[0] ep_in -1/1024, errno = 108 (Cannot send after transport endpoint shutdown)
[036.188]: qusb_noblock_read read=-1, errno: 108 (Cannot send after transport endpoint shutdown)
[036.188]: qusb_noblock_read cur=0, min_size=1
[036.188]: firehose_protocol.c fh_recv_cmd 327 fail
[036.188]: THE TOTAL DOWNLOAD TIME IS 30.851 s
[036.188]: Upgrade module successfully.

When I do 'dmesg | grep -i modem' it doesn't show me the new firmware version before or after reboot. Is there another way to check this? @as400 mentioned having to change the log level?
I'm just worried about the '[036.188]: firehose_protocol.c fh_recv_cmd 327 fail' even though it says 'Upgrade module successfully'.

Thanks

Try:

Code:
$ mmcli -m any --command='AT+GMR'
response: 'EG25GGBR07A08M2G'

According to AT commands this is the AT+GMR Request Firmware Revision Identification command.

Mobian also has the revision in Settings -> Mobile -> Advanced (Modem Details) -> Firmware Version

You can also check the VoLTE profiles list, there should be 18:
Code:
$ mmcli -m any --command='AT+QMBNCFG="list"'
