eg25-manager - Quectel EG25 management daemon

eg25-manager is a daemon for managing the Quectel EG25 modem found on the Pine64 PinePhone.

It implements the following features:

  • cleanly power on/off the modem
  • configure/check essential parameters (such as the audio format) on startup
  • monitor the modem state through ModemManager
  • put the modem in low-power mode when suspending the system, and restore it back to normal behavior when resuming
  • monitor the modem state on resume and recover it if needed

Dependencies

eg25-manager requires the following development libraries:

  • libglib2.0-dev
  • libgpiod-dev (>= 2.0)
  • libmm-glib-dev
