Description

This interface is for various cellular things (GSM and/or CDMA) things that aren't really applicable to other protocols.

IMSIChanged (s: IMSI)

Parameters

  • IMSI — s
    • The new IMSI value. This may be an empty string in the case where the IMSI is being reset or removed.
Emitted when the IMSI for the connection changes. This sort of thing is rare, but could happen on cellular phones that allow hot-swapping of SIM cards. In the case of SIM swapping, this signal would be emitted twice; the first time while the SIM is being ejected (with an empty string), and the second time after a new SIM has been inserted (assuming that the IMSI can be determined from the new SIM).

Properties

Accessed using the org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties interface.

MessageValidityPeriod — u

Read/Write

Define how long should the service centre try message delivery before giving up, failing delivery and deleting the message. A value of 0 means to use the service centre's default period.

The value specified is in seconds. Note that various protocols or implementations may round the value up (eg. to a minute or hour precision). The maximum validity period may vary depending on protocol or provider.

MessageServiceCentre — s

Read/Write
Address for the messaging service centre. Typically (as is the case for GSM's SMSC), it's the ISDN / telephony address (ie. a phone number).
(Permalink)

IMSI — s

Read only

The International Mobile Subscriber Identifier, if it exists. This would originate from a SIM card. If the IMSI is unknown, this will contain an empty string ("").
