After upgrading my MNT Reform from IMX8MQ to A311D, I had to remove all my mods. I finally found some time to 3D print all parts so that everything fits again. Full description in the MNT forum: community.mnt.re/t/adding-lte-

@josch hey heads up the imei is right there (also in the datamatrix code next to it)

@chfour Thank you for noticing but I have two of these modems because I broke the antenna of the first one, so I'm using the broken one as a fitting dummy and to take photos. That's also why there is no SIM card in it.

@chfour But thanks a lot for caring about this! ❤️

@dec_hl Unfortunately not really because the purple lifepo4 cell died, so i temporarily replaced it with a red spare which I didn't re-sleeve because I'm waiting for fresh cells to arrive by mail tomorrow. If you came here to see rainbow cells, then this post has a better photo: floss.social/@josch/1116625411

@josch rainbow colored batteries? its the details that count haha :)

@josch
Really dig the Debian logo un the usb hub carrier board.

Where has the UART to USB gone though?

@vimja It turns out, that kernel and reform-tools and the whole boot process are so stable, that it has been a long time since I've needed any serial connection with my Reform, so it went away. When I have a new kernel or reform-tools release I test those on my other Reform motherboard (with LS1028A) and that has my UART adapter attached to it.
