Working for a GSM and HSPA service provider, I am interested in understanding the potential of using the N900 as a network Diagnostic tool. My friend and I administrate our enterprise protocol analyzer and used Debian 3.0 to build some side projects
Anyhow. I was hoping someone could point me to the Maemo 5 libraries which manage the cellular communications. It would be an interesting experiment to log radio measurements as I'm moving about the RF environment. A nifty graphic dashboard like a '80 Lotus ESpirit would make a cool little app for a RAN engineer.

Way cool! Have a sound file of a Lotus 907 taching up... Welcome aboard... I have no clue if the libraries which manage the cellular communications are even available. Someone should be by shortly with an answer either way.

Amen to that, I've been using a Rel.99 network monitor in a Nokia 6630 since the S60 lockdown

The screen real estate in the N900 is perfect.
I could imagine a table with optional data sets, or even maybe some graphs, à la QXDM - but perhaps that's too ambitious.
I'd be quite happy with: active set (/neighbour list), scrambling codes (/LAC & CID), EcNO (/RX Lev & Qual) plus RRC state of the active cell..

Unfortunately, I guess everything here depends on if and how we could call data from the stack..
