I had read here that the modem can be hacked and that the SDK is under development
https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PineModems
I have done a similar work on a ZTE ADSL router but this seems to be able to go beyond, and what I mean is that it may be possible to experiment with the radio hardware for hacking the cellular network, for example the command which gives information about the cells around you is disabled and answers that "Implementation is not provided"
`qdbus --system org.ofono /quectelqmi_0 org.ofono.NetworkMonitor.GetNeighbouringCellInformation`
I tested the `at+egmr` command and indeed responds, give the following command to read the number, don't try to change it because you may run into "problems"
`echo at+egmr=0,7 | sudo atinout - /dev/EG25.MODEM - `
it's one of the hundreds of undocumented commands, so I searched it and I found this interesting and extensive manual
https://docs.ai-thinker.com/_media/b_and...ual9.0.pdf
I will keep following the project because the modem is a second computer that can do many special things with its radio and should be as much open source as possible.
Another target now is the GPS and even if you don't use it, it is interesting to know the technology behind it as implemented in the modem.
