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, 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 --dest=com.nokia.csd.Call --print-reply /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.


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 phone registration status

dbus-send --system --type=method_call --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


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 --print-reply --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.profiled /com/nokia/profiled com.nokia.profiled.get_profile

List Profiles

dbus-send --print-reply --type=method_call --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"


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


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


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"


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

gconftool-2 -u /system/osso/connectivity/network_type/GPRS/gprs_rx_bytes
gconftool-2 -u /system/osso/connectivity/network_type/GPRS/gprs_tx_bytes
gconftool-2 -s /system/osso/connectivity/network_type/GPRS/gprs_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: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=548948&postcount=52

#!/usr/bin/env python2.5

import pexpect
import time
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."
