Wow, thanks, that actually works.

Reliability of the automatic IMSI switchting probably very much depends on the STK implementation of the used handset. Unfortunately I don't see how IMSI switching could be improved since at least Android doesn't provide an API for low level access to the SIM card so you cannot send the appropriate commands from an Android app to the SIM ( discussed here). |
What a pitty - with daily crossings such long outages are unacceptable. IŽll test how it goes, and if unreliable IŽll instruct the person in question to manually select. I hope it wonŽt be necessary. Will report back after I get a chance to test it in the CH/D border area.
Thanks again, rgds, Christian
