Hi Slava, so is better to wait your new implementation (extending the api) or the testing of the merge request patch still gives you useful feedback? ________________________________ Date: Thu, 20 Apr 2017 18:41:49 +0300 From: Slava Monich <slava.mon...@jolla.com> To: devel@lists.sailfishos.org Subject: Re: [SailfishDevel] lock JP01 on 4G, is it possible? Message-ID: <719e202b-892a-29d7-404f-e60e60a54...@jolla.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"; Format="flowed" Hi Claudio, I would say update to 2.1 first. 2.0.5 is missing some packages that the latest ofono build depends on. After giving it a bit more thought, I'm leaning towards not merging this one but instead extending the api in such a way that would allow selecting an arbitrary combination of technologies.
