After + setting the modem in this state, no further use of it can be done. Currently + available in Wavecom and Cinterion. + * Location interface: new 'unmanaged GPS' support, which allows to start/stop + the GPS module in the modem, while leaving the location information retrieval + to other processes. Currently available in modems with independent GPS TTYs, + like Option/HSO, Cinterion and Huawei. + * New Test DBus interface: not to be installed, just for internal system tests. + +Other notable changes include: + * MBIM: support for ZTE and Sequans Communications modems. + * Ericsson MBM: Support for AT-capable /dev/cdc-wdm ports. + * Huawei: improved support for Network time retrieval. + * Huawei: implemented GPS support. + * Huawei: support for /dev/cdc-wdm AT ports via the new huawei-cdc-ncm driver. + * Cinterion: implemented GPS support. + * Cinterion: implemented unlock retries loading. + * Cinterion: gather port types for multi-tty devices. + * Cinterion: custom wait for SIM readiness after SIM-PIN unlock. + * Wavecom: custom wait for SIM readiness after SIM-PIN unlock. + * Probing: new flag to identify hotplugged devices which don't need full reset. + * Tests: internal refactor of the ports handling code, allowing test-driven + virtual ports and system tests run during 'make check'. This new feature also + comes with a new internal 'Test' DBus interface, as well as new --test-[*] + options in the ModemManager program. + * and many more fixes... + + ModemManager 1.2.0 ------------------------------------------- This is a new stable release of ModemManager. |
