Me too ;-)

This is from QtMoko's modem plugin [1]:
chat("AT_OPSYS=0,2"); // disable UMTS, use only GSM
I also added many other workarounds in QtMoko for the GSM. I think it's
working quite good now, but not perfectly. Here is list of problems and
workarounds:
* restart QtMoko after modem crashed. AT_OPSYS=0,2 does not completely solve
the crashing and after the crash the serial line stops working, so i restart
whole QtMoko [2].
* sometimes after resume the serial line is silent - i am closing the serial
port before suspend and open it after resume and doing CLCC and SMS poll after
opened.
* very rarely the modem after resume simply disappeared - the serial port file
/dev/ttyHSO_Application was not existing at all.
* cant detect other side hangup in outgoing call - i do CLCC polling.
I am running the phone mostly with AT logging on. But sometimes you dont have
time to analyze what happend.
Currently the modem with above workarounds works quite good, but i think many
people expect it to be 100% perfect...
