qcplink is a small set of command line utilities which
interact with the Qualcomm Phones. We're starting with the
QCP-2760
model. The utilities will read the configuration/phonebook
from the phone and write it to a file and vice versa. Longer term
we expect to write light-weight adapters to personal information managers, etc.

Status
Thanks to Seiya Fujii (who identified the CRC algorithm being used) this project is underway once more... (only 23 months after initial start... ;-)
Hey, we're underway! Checkout the latest version of the
PROTOCOL document in our CVS repository. qcplink 0.1 (readonly) is released!
Updates
- 17Jan03
- Thank you Seiya Fujii for contributing the final missing
piece to
enable my moving on with creating a full read/write qcplink. It
turns out that the CRC used is the FCS16 algorithm described in
Appendix C of the PPP RFC (RFC-1662).
- 31Jul00
- 0.1 Release - read only version to enable others to help find CRC algorithm! I'm unable to determine algorithm so far... Help! we need Help! ;-)
- 21Jul00
- first communication 2-way with phone established. Working now
on creating 0.1 release which supports reading phone book from
phone. Have yet to figure out the checkword calculation. Real
close to a CRC but havn't found the polynomial, yet, which works
for all known cases (proven that it's not any variant of crc16.
Hmmm... could use ideas here... Anyway, until I figure out the
CRC we won't be able to write to the phone. I'm anxious and still
searching!

- First protocol docment versioned - significant data here!
- 03Jul00
- First real look-n-feel for this web. Web under version
control.
Getting qcplink
Download the most recent tarfile or .deb package from our ftp-site: https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=4330
Browsing our CVS repository
All of the qcplink files are kept in a CVS repository served by
sourceforge.net. [BROWSE CVS].
Release Notes
The file NEWS, is included with the distribution which
contains updated release information. (for now you can see
the latest version of this file in our CVS repository).
Requirements
- A Qualcomm QCP-2760 PCS/CDMA phone, with the cable
that lets you connect it to the serial port on your
computer.
- Some Linux kernel. It may work with other UNIXes, but
I haven't tried it.
- A reasonable compiler and C++ library.
- Tested on:
- Debian GNU/Linux Distribution
- Linux 2.2.xx and 2.4.xx Kernels
