Test 1

Communication with Cell

There are 4 lines in this test.

 

Line 1

Abbb ccc ddd

 

If the A is H, Frequency Hopping is enabled, a blank means not enabled.

Bbb is the channel number that is used to communicate with the cell. Switch the phone on and off and the channel number will change.  Moving from on cell into another cell also changes the channel number.

Ccc is the RX value or the signal strength.

RX (from - to)                  amount of bars

From -105 to -100 dBm  0

from -100 to -95 dBm                1

from -95 to -90 dBm         2

from -90 to -85 dBm         3

more than -85 dBm         4

The RX is measured in dBm as a minus value. The above table correlates dBm values and the bars that denote signal strength in our cell. The lower the value the better the sound quality heard by us. Where we work the value is –46 as of now. It is a very fickle value and keeps changing second to second.

Ddd is the TX value and our cell it is xxx. It deals with the power received by our head from the phone.

 

Line 2

E ff g mmm

E is called the Time Slot ts and in our case is always 0.

Ff  is the Timing Advance. We can multiply this value with 550 to tell us in meters how far away the tower is. In our case the number varies from 0 to 1.

G is the rate of transmission errors and is always x.

Mmm is the RLT Radio Link Timeout and as we use a channel which is different from TCH or SDCC xx is displayed.

 

Line 3

Nnn ppp

Nnn and ppp are the C1 the path loss criterium and C2 values the cell reselection criterium. The value of C1 ranges from –99 to 99 dBm. This value decides which cell our mobile phone will use. The value of C1 has to be positive for the phone to use that cell. It uses the RX value and 3 other parameters and a complex formula to decide the C1 value. As the RX value becomes smaller as it is –ve (approaches -110) the C1 and C1 values approach 0.

C2 depends upon C1 plus and its value also ranges from –99 to +99. There are many cells that our phone can connect to. Our phone checks the C2 values of neighboring cells and if for 5 seconds any one of them has a larger C2 value, the phone switches cells. There are however some caveats. If the Phone has just switched cells in the last 15 seconds, the C2 value of the new cell must be at least 5 dBm more. There are also conditions if the cell is in another Location area.

 

Line 4

Oooo

Oooo is the type of channel used by the phone. In our case we get CBCH which is the cell broadcast channel.. When we are in a lift we get NSPS, No Serve Power Save, we are no in the range of any network and energy saving has been activated.

 

Test 2.

Information about Used Cell.

 

Line 1

Aa b c Bdd

Aa is the paging mode. We get No for Normal.

B stands for RAR Random Access retransmissions. The maximum amount of transmissions allowed. We see a value of 7.

C tells us whether our phone is roaming or not. If it is we will see a R, if not roaming a blank.

Dd is the BSIC value. The BSIC is the base Station Identity code. This the unique ID that is given to each and every BTS. A BTS is the Base Transceiver Station. This is the device that lets communication happen between the phone and the network. The value range from 0 to 63 and in our case it is 34.

 

Line 2

Ee f

Ee is the reason of the last connection made. More on this parameter in other menus.

F is the error rate in transmission and it tells us how many errors have to be corrected by the phone. If there are more than 5 errors the connection will be interrupted. The range is 0 to 7 and we always get an x.

 

Line 3

Ggg hh iii

Ggg is the Cell reselect offset

Hh is the temporary offset range

Iii is the penalty time.

All are xxx in our case.

 

Line 4

H=j mm nn

J tells us whether we are using frequency hopping or not. In our case j is 0 which tells us that we are using a single frequency called a Radio frequency RF.  1 means different RF’s are used.

Mm is the Mobile Allocation Index Offset

Nn is the HSN Hopping Sequence Number

Both values are xx

 

Test 3

Information about neighboring and current cells

 

Line 1 The current cell

Lines 2 and 3 the first and second neighbor.

 

Aaa bbb ccc ddd

 

The first three lines have four values.

Aaa is the Ch or channel number that is used for communicating with the cell.

Bbb is the C1 value. The current cell has the largest C1 value.

Ccc is the RX value. This should be the smallest.

Ddd is the C2 value.

 

Last line

Ef gh

Ef refers to the 1st neighbor cell and gh to the second.

E and g are either blank or F is the cell is located in a restricted area.

F and h can be any f 4 values. B means that the call is in a test phase, N the cell is for a normal use, which is what we get, L means low level, otherwise blank.

 

Test 4

Same as test 3 except that the data is for cells 3, 4 and 5. A value of C1 and C2 of –99 means that the phone cannot log on. 

 

Test 5

Same as test 3 but for cells 6, 7 and 8. We get xx’s for cells 7 and 8.

 

Test 6

Preferred and restricted networks.

Line 1

Aaabb aaabb

 

The first aaabb is the last network we are registered on. This is also the current network. Aaa is the MCC or the mobile country code 260 for Poland, 404 is India.

BB is the Mobile Network Code. It is a 2 digit number. The site http://www.numberingplans.com/index.php?goto=guide&topic=mccs gives us a list all the MCC’s.

The next 3 lines are as follows

1 st preferred network  1st forbidden network

2nd  preferred network  2nd forbidden network

3rd preferred network  3rdt forbidden network

 

A preferred network is one in which we can log on and a forbidden is on that we can not. Your phone is in the range of the tower but is not allowed to log on.

 

Test 7

Current cell

Line 1

E A H C I BR
a b c d e fg

This test tells us features are available with our current cell. The value of a tells us whether we can make emergency calls. As we have a value of 1 we are allowed to make such calls.

The value of b talks about IMSI attach and detach. We once again have a value of 1 which means that our phone allows IMSI attach and detach. We will talk about this procedure a little later.

C if one tells us that the cell supports HR channels. Ours does not.

D is 1 tells us that the C2 values are broadcasted. Ours is zero.

E if 1, system information 7 and 8 are broadcasted. Ours are not.

F if 1 cell supports cell broadcasting CBCH which test 1 shows us.

G if 1 tells us whether cell re-establishment is possible. Our value is 10.

 

Line 2

ECSC 2Ter MB
h    i    j

H I and j are all zeroes.

H is 1 in standby mode, if a call is on x is displayed. Same as i. J being 0 the six strongest cells are displayed.

 

Test 10

Network Information

Line 1

TMSIaaaaaaaa

Aaa is the TMSI or the temporary subscriber identity given to each subscriber. The IMSI is the number that the mobile company gives every valid user. If this number is send across the network, people can eavesdrop. Thus a random is send across and not the real IMSI. This is a security precaution. This value is saved in the sim card. It is done at the time we switch our phone on and thus if we switch the phone on and off a new TMSI is given.

 

2nd line

T321:bbb/ccc

Bbb is called the T3212 counter. Our mobile phone is supposed to inform the network where its current location is. This is called making a PLU. Its value is 0 if we do not have a sim card in our phone. This value is the time from the last location update. This value must be multiplied by 6 to get a time in minutes, The more you move around town the faster this number changes as the more the location updates. Each time we make a call or send or receive a sms or switch our phone off this value is reset. Thus the T3212 counter is used to inform the network about the location of the mobile. It can also be defined as a period of time after which the mobile sends information of its location.

Ccc is the maximum value the T3212 counter can have. In our case its value is 40. Some of the docs we read put the maximum value as 240. This value is received from the network and will vary.

 

Line 3

PRP:d  ee ff

D is called the Paging Repeat Interval or the DRX Discontinuous Receive. It has a range from 2 to 9. Our value is 4. We would not like our phone to always check whether someone is trying to call us up. Checking for a call continuously takes up a lot of battery power. The time unit is about 48 seconds. Thus a value of 4 means about 2 minutes. Thus every two minutes the phone checks whether someone is calling us up or not. The higher the d value, the less the battery consumption as the phone does a longer time between checks. The phone during these idle times is said to be in standby mode. The phone companies normally calculate standby times based on a value of 9.

Ee is called the Downlink Signaling Failure or DSF. Its value ranges from 0 to 45, we see a value of 22. If our phone uses TCH we will see xx instead.

Ff is the Automatic Gain Control AGC. It range of values can be 0 to 93. We see a value of 7 that keeps changing slightly. This is called the automatic gain control of the receiver. The stronger the signal from the BTS the smaller the value displayed. Only when we are using the phone should we take heed of this value.

 

Line 4

ggggg  hhh 

ggggg has a very complex name VCTCXO AFC DAC control. Its value is from –1024 to 1023. We get 116. This is also called the AFC or the Automatic Frequency Control. The mobile phone keeps automatically adjusting its receiver to the frequency that it receives from the BTS. The larger the value from 0, the more the frequency corrections are needed.

Hhh is the channel number used when our phone communicates with the network. The same number is present in test 1 and repeated in lots of other tests. This could only mean that different people created different tests as there are lots of fields that are repeated.

 

Test 11

Currently used network

Line 1

CC:aaa NCbbb

Aaa and bbb are the Mobile Country Code MCC or 404 and Mobile Network Code or MNC or 21 that we explained before.

 

Line 2

LAC:ccccc

Ccc is the LAC or the Location Area Code of the current cell that services us. A location size is decided by our service provider and as we keep moving this value changes. Each time the LAC changes the phone makes a Location Update. Not to be confused with GPS.

 

Line 3

CH : deee

D is the value of H if frequency hopping is enabled. Done before. Also eee is the Channel number seen n times before.

 

Line 4

CID:fffff

Each cell is known by a cell identifier or CID. Our cell id is 10643.

 

Test 12

Parameters of current network

Line 1

CIPHER :aaa 

Aaa takes 3 values, OFF, A51 or A52. OFF means no encryption is done on our data that is send across. A51 means we use the A51 algorithm to encrypt. A52 means the A52 algorithm is used. This is far weaker than A51 and can be cracked faster.

 

Line 2

HOPPING:bbb

Bbb tells us whether we use frequency hopping or not, Repeated before.

 

Line 3

DTX    :ccc

This tells us whether we use DTX or not. We don’t.

 

Line 4

IMSI   :ddd

Repeated before whether we use IMSI attach and detach. We do.

 

Test 13

Information about DTX

Line 1

Aaaaaaaaaa

Aaaa has four values, On means phone uses DTX, off it does not use, DEF the default setting decides, NOTALLOWED our case, the phone cannot decide whether it should use DTX or not. The BTS will decide and the phone has no veto power.

 

Line 2

DTX(DEF):bbb

This is the default value that will be seen if the earlier value was DEF. This can be ON or OFF, we see ON.

 

Line 3

DTX(BS) :ccc

This is the DTX value we get from our boss the BTS. It can be three values, MAY, the phone decides whether to use DTX or not, USE, the BTS decides and the phone must obey, our phones value, NOT the BTS tells the phone that it cannot use DTX.

 

Test 17

 

Partly works but dangerous. We set phone entry 33 to a channel number and the phone actually went dead. Write a number followed by a # and the phone will display the phone number of that entry. The entry must be saved on the sim card only.

 

Test 18

This test allows us to toggle the lights on and off. The default is off. All that we do is to directly go to test 18 by writing this number in the text box of the net monitor. The first time we do it the lights go on, the second time it goes off. It is that simple, move to test directly from the net monitor menu. Having lights on allows us to use the phone a flash light. The flip side is that too much battery power consumption. We put lights on as otherwise we cannot use the net monitor as the lights keep going off and readability becomes an issue.

 

Test 19

A network provider would constantly bring in new cells, repair existing cells etc. Thus while it is testing cells it would not like us mobile phone users to use these cells. Thus our phones have the ability to know that a certain cell may be up but Is not available for use. Thus a cell gives out some information specifying that it is working well but unavailable for us. The default value of this test is accepted. This means that the phone will honor the cells status. If we enter the menu 19 directly we will change its value to REVERSE which means that we want to use only those cells that are barred or under test. When we did it, there was no cell under test in our area and thus our phone went dead. This happened after we made one phone call. The test 3, 4 and 5 now shows us only one entry. TEST 1 shows us SEAR Searching For A Network. If we go directly to the menu 19 we get the third option DISCARD. This allows us to use both Barred and non barred cells. This gives us an edge over better coverage as other phones will not be able to see these cells. A tower broadcasts its cell status on a BCCH channel. The new setting takes effect only when the phone checks for signal quality.

 

Test 20

Battery and Phone charge

Line 1

aaa   bbbbb

aaa is the batter voltage divided by 100 and is a number from 0.00 to 9.99 volts. This is however displayed without the decimal point and thus we see a display from 0 to 999. Larger the value greater the battery voltage. Our batter at the time of writing is 375 or 3.75 volts and decreasing and it shows as 2 bars.

Bbb is the information about battery charging and if it is xxx the battery is not being charged. The minute we set it for charging it becomes Lithc which means charging LiION battery. For a fraction of a second it becomes L_Che which means that it is checking the parameters of the LiIon battery being charged. Initially as the system is checking the battery charge we see InitC. When the battery is full it shows us LiFul. The value of the volts is 409 or 4.09 volts.

 

Line 2

Tccc     ddd

Ccc is the current battery temperature which is our case is T+28 or 28 degrees centigrade. It also increases to 32 degrees and falls back to 28 degrees. The temperature is also given on other menus.

Ddd is the time that the charging has been going on. Normally it is written as 3 digits, the first a digit for the hours the battery has been charging, the next two the minutes. If we put the charger off and on the number gets reset to 0. Thus this value tells us the time that of our current charge has been going on.

 

Line 3

Ceee    Wfff

Eee is the charging voltage divided by 100. Our batteries are charged with a pulse current and not wit DC or direct current. The range of this value is from 0.0. to 18.7 volts. Out stays fixed for some time at 48 or .48 volts and then jumps to 60, falls back to 48 again. When the battery is fully charged, maintenance  charging begins. When charging is over and we remove the charger this value becomes 0.

Fff us the Charge control output and has a range from 0 to 255. In our case it varies from 140 to 160.

 

Line 4

gggg    hhh

ggggg is the capacity of the batter in mAh. Our battery has a value of 827.

Hhh is the counter that tells us how much time is left in charging the battery. A value of zero means that the battery is fully charged. It has no known time unit and drops pretty sharply to 0. Then the system displays the battery full message.

 

Test 21

More battery parameters

 

Line 1

aaaa  bbbb 

aaaa is the difference between the measured and required charging voltage. It starts at a larger number and then slowly moves to 0. When we finish charging both the numbers are 0.

Bbb is the difference between the last two values of aaa. Thus if aaa shows 12 and then 9, the difference is 3 which will be the value of bbb.

 

Line 2

ccc   ddd

ccc is the largest voltage measured in the battery. Our is 437 or 4.37 volts.

Ddd is the lowest voltage measured. Ours is 408.

 

Line 3

eee   fff

eee is the average voltage which is 420.

Fff is the sum of values taken from test 22 and our value now is 733. Its value is from 0 to 999.

Test 35

Reason of last reboot

Line 1

aaaaa  

This is the reason for last reboot or reset and can be any of seven values. The most common value is NORM because of we shut the phone down normally. UNKNO is when the reset reason is unknown. SWSIM when the sim contact fails. STACK for a stack overflow, difficult to simulate. SWIDL idle task not running reset, HW ASIC watchdog timeout and SWDSP restart DSP recovery.

 

Line 2

Bbbbbbbb

This is the name of the task that caused the reset. We always see UNKNOWN but values can be SIM L2, DEV IO etc.

 

Test 36

Reasons for last reboot

Line 1

aa  bb  cc aa  bb  cc

aa is a number that tells us the total unknown resets, In our case it is 0.

Bb is the total watchdog timeout resets. A value of 9 for us.

Cc is the DSP recovery resets, f5 is our value.

These above counters are stored in EEPROM.

Line 2

dd  ee  ff

dd are the sim failure resets which is 0 for us.

Ee are the idle tasks not running resets 7 for us.

Ff the task stack overflow resets, once again 0.

 

Menu 39

Reasons for last connection termination.

Line 1

CC:   aaa  

The reason for the last call termination. We called up our mobile from another phone and did not pick up the phone. We waited till the phone got fed up and said missed call. The number shown changed from 0 to 102. We then called again and this time pressed the cancel key. The number became 17. Thus we can figure out how the last call on the phone terminated. This error comes from the call control layer.

 

Line 2

MM:   bbb

This value is displayed by the mobility management layer. A value will be seen if we for example are in a area where we are not allowed to roam.

 

Line 3

RR:   ccc

This value comes from the Radio Resource Management layer. When we are receiving a call we see a asterix displayed. These tests are useful to tell someone why the phone is not making calls.

 

Test 40

Resets handover counters

When we access this test from the net monitor menu all the counters in Test 41 are set to 0.

Test 45

Transmitter enable or disable

Using the menu we are able to enable or disable the transmitter. Does not work on our phone at all.

 

Test 51

Information about sim card

Line 1

aaa bbb ccc 

aaa is the SIM voltage selection type which can be 3 or 3/5 or 5. Ours is the lowest value 3.

Bbb is the division coefficient, a number that will decide the speed of transmission between phone and the sim card. It can have 4 values, 372, 64, 32 and 0. When we first try to speak to our sim card it sends us a series of bytes which is called an ATR or Answer To Reset. The speed of transmission is the clock frequency which can go up to 3.25 MHz divided by bbb. This value is measured in bods.

Ccc can be Yes or No. In our case Yes means that the SIM clock can be stopped during standby to conserve energy. We cannot change this setting it depends upon the phone and sim card.

 

Line 2

Dddddddd

All x’s in our case. This is information about the clock stop condition.

 

Line 3

e f  gg hh

Some of us use a password or PIN1 to stop others from using our phone. E is the number of PIN1 attempts left. Most phones allow us three attempts.

F is the number of PIN2 attempts left.

Gg is the number of PUK1 attempts left. When we run out off PIN1 and Pin2 PUK1 and PUK2 come into play. PUK is the Pin Unblock Code. We normally get 10 attempts for PUK’s. When we run out of PIN’s, the sim card is blocked for use and unless we do not give a valid PUK, we cannot use our phone. When we run out of our PUK1 attempts, the  phone says SIM card rejected and we are supposed to key in our PUK2. These values are given by our network operator, while we choose our PIN numbers.

Hh is the number of PUK2 attempts left.

The point to be noted is that the PIN1 and Pin2 are independent of each other. PIN1 and PUK1 go hand in glove and PIN2 and PUK2 go together. Some features of a SIM card need PIN1 and some need PIN2. If both are blocked, the sim card has to thrown away.

 

Line 4

i   jjjj

I is the ATR repeat counter, in our case no repeats and hence 0.

Jjjj is the number of retransmissions or parity errors in transmissions with the sim card. 0 in our case.

 

Test 54

Confusion

 

Test 55

This gives us information about memory blocks. In our case the values are xx as we do not have enough memory.

 

Test 56

Block Display

Line 1

aaaaaa bbb 

aaa is the pointer to the area of memory where double de-allocation was called. In our case xxx.

Bbb is the counter that tells us how many failed de-allocations happened.

 

Line 2

Cccccccc

This gives us the name of the task that tried to double de-allocate memory. We get OS idle which may not right as the bbb value must be non zero.

 

Test 57

Memory Status before reset.

We get all xxx’s as this test is meaningful only when there is a stack overflow.

 

Test 60

Resetting the field counters till test 66.

 

Test 61

Line 1

NOPSW  :aaaa

Aaaa is a counter for MDI_NO_PSW_FOUND messages from the Digital Signal Processor. Our current value is 9438.

 

Line 2

SYNCR  :bbbb

Bbb is a counter for synchronization measurement attempts. Current value 6342.

 

Line 3

RESELEC:cccc
Ccc is the cell reelection value which is 9527. 

 

Test 62

Line 1

PSW  :aaaa 

Aaaa is a counter for neighboring PSW measurement attempts. Value 26303.

 

Line 2

SYNCR:bbbb

Bbbb is a counter for neighboring synchronization attempts. Value 15112.

 

Line 3

BCCH :cccc 

Cccc counter for the number of quality measurement attempts with neighboring cells. Current value 54020.

 

Line 4

BCCHE:ddd

Same as above but for extended cells. Value is 69.

 

Test 63

Line 1

aa    bb

aa is the reason for the last cell release or last call release. We saw this in Test 2 and 39. We see a value of 16.

Bb tells us more about the last call ending and can be one of 4 values. UN is unknown, ex no calls made since enabling phone, IN and internal reason like no network found or phone disabled, MT call terminated by network. Finally we see MO, the phone ended the call.

 

Line 2

ccc   ddd 

ccc the number of times you tried calling up some one from your phone. Our current value is 514.

Ddd is the number of times we succeeded in making the call. Current value is 352.

We kept calling up a number but did not pick up the phone, aaa kept growing, bbb did not. If we call up our own number it is taken to be a call even though we get number busy and ccc grows by 1. The value of bb is now MT. When the other side actually picks up the phone, ddd increases by 1. This is a nice way of finding our how many calls we made and how many actually got though by the other guy actually picking up the phone.

 

Line 3

eee   fff

eee is number of all incoming calls including missed.

Fff is the number of received incoming calls.

We now call up our mobile phone. Whether we pick up the phone or not, eee increases by 1. fff only grows if we actually pick up the phone.

 

Test 64

Number of times phone spoke to network

Line 1

aa bbb ccc 

aaa is error code of last incorrect location update.

Bbb is number of times the phone tried to make a Location update.

Ccc the number of times the location update was successful.

 

Line 2

dd eee fff 

ddd is the error during last PLU or IMSI attach.

Eee the number of times the phone made a IMSI attach. Our value 560

Fff the number of times a successful IMSI attach was done. Our value 536. Each time we switch our phone on and off an IMSI attach is carried out. If successful then both values increase by 1.

 

Test 65

SMS messages

Line 1

aa bbb ccc 

aa is the error message for the last sms send.

Bbb is the number of sms attempts 28732 686

Ccc the number of successful attempts

If we try and send a sms to a number not in use, aa will increase by 1, but bbb will remain the same. If we successfully send a sms, both numbers increase by 1.

 

Line 2

dd eee fff

dd is the error code of last sms received.

Eee number os sms’s attempts for receiving

Fff number of successful sms’s received.

Both eee and fff are normally the same. Each time we receive an sms, the last two numbers increase by 1.

 

Line 3

The number of cell broadcast message. We see 121.

 

Test 66

SMS timeouts

Line 1

aaa bbb cc 

aaa is the time out for TR1M which is 2

bbb is the timeout counter for TR2M which is 0

cc is the timeout counter for TRAM which is 0.

 

Line 2

ddd eee ff

ddd is the timeout counter for TC1M, value is 0

eee is the timeout counter for TC2M value is 3

ff is the timeout for cell broadcast which is 14.

Test 80

Timers

This menu resets all the timers.

 

Test 81

This test is a toggle, it either enables or disables the timers.

 

Test 82

Line 1

aaaaa bbbbb 

aaaaa is a five digit number. The first three digits tell us the number of hours and the last two digits the number of minutes our phone has been enabled. We see a value of 00036 which means that our phone has been on for 36 minutes.

Bbbbb tells us how long we have been logged onto the network. Aaaaa and bbbbb should have the same values as our phone is always connected to the network. Switching off the phone does not reset this counter to 0. Test 80 does make them 0.

 

Line 2

ccccc ddddd

cccc is the amount of time the network is in the NSPS state, which is a state where we have no network.

Ddd is the time our phones transmitter has been enabled.

 

Line 3

TIMERS eee

This has two values ON and OFF which can be changed from Test 81. The minute we disable the timer the earlier values do no change any more.

 

Test 83

This test allows us to change the options to three different values, stacks, msg buffs and fast bufs. This changes the appearance of the next four tests 84, 65, 86 and 87.

 

Test 84

 

This tells us how many stack locations are empty. 0 means worst case, no memory at all.

aaaaa bbbbb

aaaaa is the version and release data of the MCU software. Our value is 05.59.

bbbb is the version of the downloaded Post Programming memory packet. The nokia firmware does not have support for all languages build in because of memory constraints. Thus we have different packets for different languages.
