Please be aware that the recommended way to use the phone functionality is Telepathy: |
D-Bus
These D-Bus commands can be run from terminal or as shell scripts. Useful for scheduling events with fcron, executing from Desktop Command Execution Widget or Queen BeeCon Widget, startup events, install scripts, etc. They should be run as:
run-standalone.sh SCRIPT.sh run-standalone.sh dbus-send COMMAND
This is important to set up the environment correctly otherwise they may barf. If run as user "user" this is not needed.
Also note that most commands don't need "--print-reply" option. Those that don't need it should be tested without it and this page should be edited.
Phone
Open Phone application
dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.HildonDesktop.AppMgr /com/nokia/HildonDesktop/AppMgr com.nokia.HildonDesktop.AppMgr.LaunchApplication string:"rtcom-call-ui"
Make a phone call
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.csd.Call /com/nokia/csd/call com.nokia.csd.Call.CreateWith string:"$NUMBER" uint32:0
Change $NUMBER to phone number you want to call.
End current phone call
dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.csd.Call /com/nokia/csd/call com.nokia.csd.Call.Release
This will release/end/hangup/reject the current call (or possibly all calls if more then one call is active - needs testing to verify behavior when more then 1 call active) or do nothing if no calls are active.
Answer current phone call
dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.csd.Call /com/nokia/csd/call/1 com.nokia.csd.Call.Instance.Answer
This will answer/pickup the current (first) call.
TODO: Early experiments show that this function throws com.nokia.csd.Call.Error.NotAllowed exception. How to get around this?
Get IMEI
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.phone.SIM /com/nokia/phone/SIM/security Phone.Sim.Security.get_imei
Get IMSI
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.phone.SIM /com/nokia/phone/SIM Phone.Sim.get_imsi
Get cellular signal strength
dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.phone.net /com/nokia/phone/net Phone.Net.get_signal_strength
First line is percentage, second is dBm, third unknown.
Get cellular registration status
dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.phone.net /com/nokia/phone/net Phone.Net.get_registration_status
Turn loudspeaker on
dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.osso_hp_ls_controller /com/nokia/osso_hp_ls_controller com.nokia.osso_hp_ls_controller.loudspeaker.force_loudspeaker_off
Turn loudspeaker off
dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.osso_hp_ls_controller /com/nokia/osso_hp_ls_controller com.nokia.osso_hp_ls_controller.loudspeaker.force_loudspeaker_on
Start vibrating
dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.mce /com/nokia/mce/request com.nokia.mce.request.req_vibrator_pattern_activate string:PatternIncomingCall
Stop vibrating
dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.mce /com/nokia/mce/request com.nokia.mce.request.req_vibrator_pattern_deactivate string:PatternIncomingCall
Profiles
Set General
dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.profiled /com/nokia/profiled com.nokia.profiled.set_profile string:"general"
Set Silent
dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.profiled /com/nokia/profiled com.nokia.profiled.set_profile string:"silent"
Query current profile
dbus-send --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.profiled /com/nokia/profiled com.nokia.profiled.get_profile
List all profiles
dbus-send --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.profiled /com/nokia/profiled com.nokia.profiled.get_profiles
LED
Activate LEDs
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.mce /com/nokia/mce/request com.nokia.mce.request.req_led_pattern_activate string:"PatternCommunicationIM"
Deactivate LEDs
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.mce /com/nokia/mce/request com.nokia.mce.request.req_led_pattern_deactivate string:"PatternCommunicationIM"
Messaging
New e-mail
dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.modest /com/nokia/modest com.nokia.modest.MailTo string:"mailto:"
Send and receive e-mail
It works, but it takes looong time (up to minute and a half) via GPRS (2.5, 3 or 3.5). Network and/or speed is not the problem, it just takes long via GPRS. It is much faster via Wi-Fi.
dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.modest /com/nokia/modest com.nokia.modest.SendReceive
Set presence
dbus-send --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.Telepathy.MissionControl /org/freedesktop/Telepathy/MissionControl org.freedesktop.Telepathy.MissionControl.SetPresence uint32:2 string:"I'm here"
Change peak_schedule settings
Check:
run-standalone.sh gconftool-2 -R /apps/activesync
Set (check if yours is named ActiveSyncAccount1):
run-standalone.sh gconftool-2 --set /apps/activesync/ActiveSyncAccount1/schedule/peak_schedule --type=int 15
Where the last number is one of the following (as standard in GUI):
0 = Always on -1 = Manual 15 = Every 15 minutes 30 = Every 30 minutes 60 = Every hour 240 = Every 4 hours 720 = Every 12 hours
Media player
Open file in media player
dbus-send --dest=com.nokia.mediaplayer /com/nokia/mediaplayer com.nokia.mediaplayer.mime_open string:"file:///$1"
Pause what's currently playing
dbus-send --dest=com.nokia.mafw.renderer.Mafw-Gst-Renderer-Plugin.gstrenderer /com/nokia/mafw/renderer/gstrenderer com.nokia.mafw.renderer.pause
Stop what's currently playing
dbus-send --dest=com.nokia.mafw.renderer.Mafw-Gst-Renderer-Plugin.gstrenderer /com/nokia/mafw/renderer/gstrenderer com.nokia.mafw.renderer.stop
Play what's currently selected
dbus-send --dest=com.nokia.mafw.renderer.Mafw-Gst-Renderer-Plugin.gstrenderer /com/nokia/mafw/renderer/gstrenderer com.nokia.mafw.renderer.play
Play next mediafile
dbus-send --dest=com.nokia.mafw.renderer.Mafw-Gst-Renderer-Plugin.gstrenderer /com/nokia/mafw/renderer/gstrenderer com.nokia.mafw.renderer.next
Play previous mediafile
dbus-send --dest=com.nokia.mafw.renderer.Mafw-Gst-Renderer-Plugin.gstrenderer /com/nokia/mafw/renderer/gstrenderer com.nokia.mafw.renderer.previous
Notifications
Send notification (orange one line popup)
dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=org.freedesktop.Notifications /org/freedesktop/Notifications org.freedesktop.Notifications.SystemNoteInfoprint string:"NOTIFICATION"
Send dialog notification (orange multi line popup requiring user interaction)
dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=org.freedesktop.Notifications /org/freedesktop/Notifications org.freedesktop.Notifications.SystemNoteDialog string:"QUESTION?" uint32:0 string:"OK"
Not sure what string "OK" does, but it is needed and can be anything.
Securing
Lock
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.system_ui /com/nokia/system_ui/request com.nokia.system_ui.request.devlock_open string:"com.nokia.mce" string:"/com/nokia/mce/request" string:"com.nokia.mce.request" string:"devlock_callback" uint32:'3'
Unlock
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.system_ui /com/nokia/system_ui/request com.nokia.system_ui.request.devlock_close string:"com.nokia.mce" string:"/com/nokia/mce/request" string:"com.nokia.mce.request" string:"devlock_callback" uint32:'0'
Lock screen and keys
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.mce /com/nokia/mce/request com.nokia.mce.request.req_tklock_mode_change string:"locked"
Unlock screen and keys
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.mce /com/nokia/mce/request com.nokia.mce.request.req_tklock_mode_change string:"unlocked"
Networking
Connect to specific saved connection
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.icd /com/nokia/icd com.nokia.icd.connect string:"IAP_ID" uint32:0
IAP_ID is internet access point identifier and can be obtained with the following command:
gconftool -R /system/osso/connectivity/IAP
Find lines which matches /system/osso/connectivity/IAP/<IAP_ID>
For GPRS connections replace "@32@" with a space in IAP_ID string.
Keep in mind that phone has to be disconnected in order to connect via this call.
Connect to any saved connection
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.icd /com/nokia/icd com.nokia.icd.connect string:"[ANY]" uint32:0
Disconnect internet
dbus-send --system --dest=com.nokia.icd /com/nokia/icd_ui com.nokia.icd_ui.disconnect boolean:true
Connect (show change connection UI)
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.icd_ui /com/nokia/icd_ui com.nokia.icd_ui.show_conn_dlg boolean:false
If "boolean:true" at the end, one-line notification saying "No saved connections available" appears. Maybe affects more than that?
Enable cellular radio
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.phone.SSC /com/nokia/phone/SSC com.nokia.phone.SSC.set_radio boolean:true
Disable cellular radio
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.phone.SSC /com/nokia/phone/SSC com.nokia.phone.SSC.set_radio boolean:false
Radio mode
2G
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.phone.net /com/nokia/phone/net Phone.Net.set_selected_radio_access_technology byte:1
3G
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.phone.net /com/nokia/phone/net Phone.Net.set_selected_radio_access_technology byte:2
Dual
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.phone.net /com/nokia/phone/net Phone.Net.set_selected_radio_access_technology byte:0
Bluetooth
Identify adapter path
You need to know adapter path in order to send D-Bus call to the right place. You can get it with entering this command into the terminal:
dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.bluez / org.bluez.Manager.ListAdapters | awk -F'"' '/at/ {print $2}'
Enable
Using the adapter path value returned with previous command, for example /org/bluez/906/hci0.
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=org.bluez /org/bluez/906/hci0 org.bluez.Adapter.SetProperty string:Powered variant:boolean:true
This one automatically inserts adapter path:
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=org.bluez $(dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.bluez / org.bluez.Manager.ListAdapters | awk -F'"' '/at/ {print $2}') org.bluez.Adapter.SetProperty string:Powered variant:boolean:true
Disable
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=org.bluez /org/bluez/906/hci0 org.bluez.Adapter.SetProperty string:Powered variant:boolean:false
With auto-discovery of adapter path:
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=org.bluez $(dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.bluez / org.bluez.Manager.ListAdapters | awk -F'"' '/at/ {print $2}') org.bluez.Adapter.SetProperty string:Powered variant:boolean:false
Connect to specific device
devmac=00:11:22:33:44:55
service=AudioSink
adapter=$(dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.bluez / org.bluez.Manager.ListAdapters | awk -F'"' '/at/ {print $2}')
device=$(dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.bluez ${adapter} org.bluez.Adapter.FindDevice string:${devmac} | sed -ne 's/^.*object path //p' -e 's/"//g')
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=org.bluez ${device} org.bluez.${service}.Connect
Change the AudoSink to any service and the devmac to the MAC of bluetooth device.
Check for updates
dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.hildon_application_manager /com/nokia/hildon_application_manager com.nokia.hildon_application_manager.check_for_updates
Open link in browser
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.osso_browser /com/nokia/osso_browser/request com.nokia.osso_browser.load_url string:"google.com"
Set volume
dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.mafw.renderer.Mafw-Gst-Renderer-Plugin.gstrenderer /com/nokia/mafw/renderer/gstrenderer com.nokia.mafw.extension.set_extension_property string:volume variant:uint32:50
The value can be between 0 and 100.
Reboot
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.mce "/com/nokia/mce/request" com.nokia.mce.request.req_reboot
This is same as rebooting from power key menu (needs uncommenting in certain XML file to appear) and has been identified as insecure way to reboot the device (no filesystem synchronization, etc.). Better command is to simply enter "reboot" in root terminal.
Shutdown
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.mce "/com/nokia/mce/request" com.nokia.mce.request.req_shutdown
See warning at reboot D-Bus call (needs testing).
Show dashboard
dbus-send /com/nokia/hildon_desktop com.nokia.hildon_desktop.exit_app_view
Other
D-Bus Scripts
You can also use dbus-scripts to execute any command when various actions are triggered on D-Bus.
Panucci (pause)
dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=org.panucci.panucciInterface /panucciInterface org.panucci.panucciInterface.playPause
GConf
Reset GPRS data counter
The commands are PR1.2 compliant and do not work on previous versions.
gconftool-2 -u /system/osso/connectivity/network_type/GPRS/gprs_home_rx_bytes gconftool-2 -u /system/osso/connectivity/network_type/GPRS/gprs_home_tx_bytes gconftool-2 -s /system/osso/connectivity/network_type/GPRS/gprs_home_reset_time --type=string $(date +%s)
Command line
Enable FM Transmitter
/usr/bin/fmtx_client -p 1
Disable FM Transmitter
/usr/bin/fmtx_client -p 0
GStreamer
Shoot photo after 10 seconds
The camera application must be off for it to work. And of course the camera shutter must be open...
/bin/sleep 10 ; /usr/bin/gst-launch v4l2camsrc device=/dev/video0 num-buffers=1 \! video/x-raw-yuv,width=2592,height=1968 \! ffmpegcolorspace \! jpegenc \! filesink location=/home/user/MyDocs/DCIM/photo.jpg
To shoot from the front camera, change /dev/video0 to /dev/video1 and the proper resolution:
/bin/sleep 10 ; /usr/bin/gst-launch v4l2camsrc device=/dev/video1 num-buffers=1 \! video/x-raw-yuv,width=640,height=480 \! ffmpegcolorspace \! jpegenc \! filesink location=/home/user/MyDocs/DCIM/photo.jpg
Other way:
/bin/sleep 10; /usr/bin/gst-launch v4l2camsrc ! ffmpegcolorspace ! jpegenc ! identity error-after=1 ! filesink location=/home/user/MyDocs/DCIM/photo.jpg
Python
Make a phone call
import dbus
def place_call(number):
bus = dbus.SystemBus()
csd_call = dbus.Interface(bus.get_object('com.nokia.csd',
'/com/nokia/csd/call'),
'com.nokia.csd.Call')
csd_call.CreateWith(str(number), dbus.UInt32(0))
Send SMS

from subprocess import *
child = pexpect.spawn('pnatd');
child.send('at\r');
time.sleep(0.25);
child.send('at+cmgf=1\r');
time.sleep(0.25);
child.send('at+cmgs="+XXXXXXX"\r');
child.send('SMSTEXTSMSTEXTSMSTEXT');
child.send(chr(26));
child.send(chr(26));
child.sendeof();
Send dialog notification (orange multi line popup requiring user interaction)
import dbus
def show_notification_dialog(message, mode="single"):
bus = dbus.SystemBus()
iface = dbus.Interface(bus.get_object('org.freedesktop.Notifications',
'/org/freedesktop/Notifications'),
'org.freedesktop.Notifications')
if mode == "single":
iface.SystemNoteInfoprint(message)
elif mode == "multiline":
iface.SystemNoteDialog(str(message), dbus.UInt32(0), 'Ok')
This function allows you to show notification either with multiline (on maemo pre-5 it will show a dialog with an "Ok" button) or single line (tiny notifications hiding automatically).
Take a screenshot
import gtk.gdk
w = gtk.gdk.get_default_root_window()
sz = w.get_size()
print "The size of the window is %d x %d" % sz
pb = gtk.gdk.Pixbuf(gtk.gdk.COLORSPACE_RGB,False,8,sz[0],sz[1])
pb = pb.get_from_drawable(w,w.get_colormap(),0,0,0,0,sz[0],sz[1])
if (pb != None):
pb.save("screenshot.png","png")
print "Screenshot saved to screenshot.png."
else:
print "Unable to get the screenshot."
