brolin_empeyDoes the Great Firewall of Maemo still use a Linux 2.6.28 kernel? ;-)14:19
Wizzup?14:19
brolin_empeyI was replying to sixwheeledbeast from around 27 hours ago.14:20
sixwheeledbeastI doubt *maemo.org infra is running on 2.6.x but I have no idea.14:21
brolin_empeyIt was a joke, not a serious question, because Fremantle uses a 2.6.28 kernel.14:30
brolin_empeyAnyway, in terms of serious questions, on Android (version 8 on an LG G5 from Fido in Canada, if it matters), is there a way to see if the computer is locked to one cellular network without trying a SIM from a different network?14:33
sixwheeledbeastI thought as much, just making sure my comment didn't land on stony ground.14:35
brolin_empeyThe LG G5 uses a nanoSIM but the only nanoSIM I have is the Fido SIM I am currently using but the computer I am using is from Fido so I do not know if the computer is locked to Fido.  I have other SIMs, such as one from Telus Mobility, but they are larger than nanoSIM so I cannot install them in the LG G5.  I can manually cut them to nanoSIM size using a paper template I have but I need double-sided adhesive tape to attach the SIM to the paper template.  I14:37
brolin_empeyhave such tape at home but apparently not at my office, where I currently am.14:37
brolin_empeyI searched the Internet but only found lots of low-quality results written as if trying a different SIM is dead simple when the reality is that the other SIMs I have are two sizes too large (miniSIM instead of nanoSIM) to install in the computer I am currently using. (fail)15:03

brolin_empeyEh, I seem to have got by marking the SIM without taping the SIM in place so I guess I do not need double-sided adhesive tape after all.  Now I need to cut the SIM.15:49
halftuxxes: could you look for repo sync again please. Package telegram-cli build succeeded but get not imported to extras-devel. Thank you16:01
brolin_empeyThe SIM cutting seems to have succeeded.  Apparently my LG G5 is locked to Fido after all.  Sigh.  Now I have a new, artificial problem to solve.16:15

brolin_empeyThe G5 seems to be unlocked using the unlock code Fido provided when I called them.20:40
