OK so I can actually communicate with my A6. WOOT it works!
But....
I have a FreedomPop SIM, when I issue: AT+COPS=?
I get back:
+COPS: (3,"T-Mobile","T-Mobile","31026")
OK
Looking at the AT command set I see that code 3 means forbidden.
I'm surprised that I can only see T-Mobile, particularly since I have an ATT phone and it works OK without roaming where I am.
So the question is, why is T-Mobile forbidden?
Is it that FreedomPop does not have a roaming agreement with T-Mobile?
Is it that my SIM is not fully activated?
Or do I need to issue some sort of registration request to get activated.
Also AT+CNUM=? does not return any value at all.
Do I need to drop the SIM into an unlocked phone first to get it programmed right?
Anyone have any experience with this?
