*Testing Hardware needed*

[Salamek]

Why ?

Testing HW is needed to properly maintain this library and to solve some issues:
#4 I need real HW to write full coverage unittests (i will ~use dumped responses in tests)
#1 I need real HW to write full documentation
#2 I need real HW to test this functionality and add some input FW tests to prevent bricking the device

What ?

All currently supported devices are needed or at least one of them with most of functionality enabled (Checked devices are collected/not needed anymore):

• Huawei B310s-22 (Bought by my self for 480 CZK)
• Huawei E3372 (Donated by @SCiunczyk)
• Huawei B525s-23a
• Huawei B525s-65a
• Huawei B715s-23c
• Huawei E3131
• Huawei E5186s-22a
• Huawei B535-232
  • +250 CZK from @larsvinc

... any other device using same admin interface...

How ?

• You can send me a real HW, contact me via email in my account detail for shipping information (I live in Czech Republic BTW).

• You can donate money to buy these devices (i will try to find some cheap in used condition on auction sites etc. if posible) via donate button on top of this project (PayPal, Patreon, Crypto). You can specify what device i should buy for that donation.

All HW/"money for HW" donations will be listed on end of README.md (Or not if you will not want to be listed)

Thank You!

Hi,
your lib works with my Huawei E3531 on a raspberry pi, great job :-) :

Hi Salamek,

I just tried your library on a Huawei "B818-263" aka "4G Router 3 Prime". From your example, run from a RaspberryPi 4 wirh Manjaro (ARCH) Linux. I got:

Instead of sending you $$$ I can offer to assist you in testing against my hardware, if you like.

I've installed on a R-Pi 3+ with Huawei 5576-856 aka Vodafone Pocker Wifi 3 4G. I can send_sms in Australia and I can get_sms from the device. Well done! I gave up on Gammu as it can't talk to the port/device once it becomes an ethernet device.

Do you still need devices? I'd like to help out.

Hi,

Successfully run data_dump.py on the following models:

• E8372h-608 (USB modem)
• E5573s-320 (LTE router)
• E5530As-2 (3G-only router, just in case)

Did some testing of K5160 USB stick (Vodafone-branded version of E3372).

Worked: net_mode.py script. Tested with operator SIM with specific LTE band: bands and fallback modes are set correctly.
Didn't work: A lot of data printed by data_dump.py is empty. Apparently the firmware doesn't fill these fields. E.g. signal data is barely usable with only network mode field:

==== Device.signal
{'cell_id': None,
 'ecio': None,
 'lte_bandinfo': None,
 'lte_bandwidth': None,
 'mode': '7',
 'pci': None,
 'psatt': '1',
 'rscp': None,
 'rsrp': None,
 'rsrq': None,
 'rssi': None,
 'sc': None,
 'sinr': None}

Version info:

==== Device.autorun_version
{'Version': '22.001.07.00.03'}

==== Device.basic_information
{'SoftwareVersion': '10.0',
 'WebUIVersion': '3.019.226',
 'autoupdate_guide_status': '1',
 'classify': 'hilink',
 'devicename': 'K5160',
