Sony Ericsson Cell Phone Interface

Hi,
1) did somebody try to interface a Sony Ericsson Cell Phone ?

2) Does the software (Celliax Channel) work with Sony Ericsson Phones ? Any diference with the motorolas and Nokias in the AT protocol ?

3) Anyone tried using bluetooth (Like MIAX) ?

I will be testing a SE T637 and a T290.

Hi
i used celliax with successful over bluetooth on gnu/linux, no need to use miax, or chan_bluetooth, just use serial /dev/rfcomm0 (or your serial/bt device).

If you can use minicom with /dev/rfcomm0 serial device, afaik, you can use celliax for "at" commands (i have nokia 6630, and works fine).

Any patch for audio over bt for celliax (something like SCO, or alsa-bluetooth), are wellcome, of course, but imho maybe useless.
But gmaruzz can say you more ;)

I don't have sony phone, so i can't help you more, sorry ;)

Ciao Mike, never tried a

Ciao Mike,

never tried a Sony Ericsson.

But the AT commands are fairly standard, and Celliax use the bare minimum, so maybe will just work.

Unfortunately I don't know nothing about bluetooth, only that I don't understand why someone will use a nice sparkling bluetooth phone as an unseen "celliax base station" ;-P

Joking aside, seems that the missing piece is audio through bluetooth, as Becks said.

Obviously I would like a lot to know about progress both with Sony-Ericsson and (if ever) bluetooth.

Let us know!

Ciao for now,

Giovanni

Hi, You said that you used

Hi,

You said that you used Celliax with successful over bluetooth without MIAX or CHAN_BLUETOOTH. Does it mean too that you do not need the Celliax Hardware Adapter ? But just Celliax and a bluetooth dongle and a bluetooth cellphone ? Is my un derstanding exact ?

Thanks for your reply.

Hi. I try use SE T630.

Hi. I try use SE T630. Control channel over bluetooth, voice over handsfree, all work but i have big echo from microphone input.

Please could you explain how

Please could you explain how do you do for making the cellphne works with bluetooth ? Configurations, others softs like "bluez packages, bluetooth packages" ? Does it require the celliax hardware like cable ???

Thanks.

Alex.

Hmm.. Use /etc/rfcomm.conf

Hmm.. Use /etc/rfcomm.conf for get COM port(set mobile address). Sound get from handsfree:))

Warp, sorry... did you mean

Warp, sorry... did you mean handsfree "wired", or handsfree over BT ? ;)

Hi, So much questions about

Hi,

So much questions about Celliax and bluetooth because my intention is to use "Celliax" with Openwrt over a bluetooth dongle with a bluetooth cellphone. Has anyone manage to compile Celliax for Openwrt ? And do you think that it will feasible ?

Alex.

I think there will be no

I think there will be no problem to compile and install Celliax on Openwrt.

Maybe you would like to remove -lX11 from the channels_Makefile and #undefine WANT_SKYPE_X11 in chan_celliax.c, so you don't need the X11 libraries (you probably will not have Skype on Openwrt ;-) ).

For what bluetooth is concerned, unfortunately I don't know , but seems that the others in this forum knows a lot ;-).

You guys are tempting me to buy a bluetooth phone ;-), but I'll resist for a while...

Giovanni

Ah, and don't forget to put

Ah, and don't forget to put skype=no in the /usr/local/asterisk/etc/asterisk/celliax.conf

And please, let us know of your progress, both in the compilation and in the bluetooth thing

Ciao for now,

Giovanni

Please let me know if for my

Please let me know if for my Celliax project OpenWRT do I need any datacable between my cellphone and Atserisk using bluetooth dongle ?
I want to use Celliax as a GSM gateway without any cable between the cellphone and Asterisk. Is it possibel ? And is it what you have had set up.

MyCellphone --> Bluetooth cellphone --bluetooth network (*) --> Celliax--Asterisk --> Any phone network(GSM, VOIP, PSTN)

(*) No cable between Bluetooth cellphone and Celliax/Asterisk.

Thanks.

Alex.

I think that for the moment,

I think that for the moment, it will not work out of the box.

Seems that you have to solve the problem of how to pass the audio through bluetooth.

But maybe someone other in this forum can give you more info.

Hi, The goal is that the

Hi,

The goal is that the audio will get by Asterisk over bluetooth in place of the Celliax audio datacable like a bluetooth handsfree. Can Celliax compare with MIAX, DIAX, or Chan_Bluettoth ?
I will like to ask the persons who manage to make Celliax working with bluetooth how they did and what hardwares they used.

Alex.

I have handsfree wired. For

I have handsfree wired. For sound over bluetooth u need look on chan_bluetooth. I think echo its a big problem for this channel, i have echo on Motorola C350 and SonyEricsson T630.

Becks manages to make

Becks manages to make Celliax+Asterisk working over bluetooth. But he did not mention if he used any wired/datacable between the 2d cellphone for sound and Celliax-Asterisk. This point remains not clear for me.
For me, Celliax acts as a wireless headset for the cellphone. The sound got by the wireless headset is transported by bluetooth, precisely Bluetooth-Alsa. Asterisk will come to pick up the sound from the headset like the normal schema. The big question is CAN CELLIAX ACT AS A HEADSET ?
For your echo with wired handsfree, have you try to reduce it in the Asterisk *.conf files, zapata.conf ? Reducing the volume could resolve the echos problems.

Alex

I use BT for serial AT

I use BT for serial AT commands, NOT for audio.
Alsa-bt, chan_celliax, miax, are only suggestion to accomplish your goal.

Btw, it can see any reason to stream audio over BT, when you can use cable ;)

If u need operate with

If u need operate with Bluetooth why not use chan_bluetooth? I use chan_bluetooth with T630 all work but u need BT dongle based on CSR chipset or maybe Broadcom (i not tested).In Linux (bluez) u cannot establish more than one SCO(voice) connection per BT dongle. CELLIAX can't ACT as headset over bluetooth.

Thank for the suggestion

Thank for the suggestion Warp. For your configuration, do you need too Celliax or only chan_bluetooth+bluez and Asterisk ? I heard that using chan_bluetooth one has only one way voice, not a full duplex. Could you confirm me ?

Thanks.

Need only chan_bluetooth.

Need only chan_bluetooth. One way audio fixed on chan_gsm_bt based on chan_bluetooth, but site http://changsmbt.free.fr/ now is down:( Try google to find sourcess:)

chan_mobile

Hi guys,

Don't know if anyone is still following this thread, but you should look into chan_mobile (used to be chan_cellphone)

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+Bluetooth+channels

It apparently has overcome the issues mentioned here.
