Ah, I do remember seeing your previous post.  Did not connect the two together 
though.

Actually a reference UI for oFono is something we're still lacking.  We've all 
been too busy adding core features.  This is something we want to fix...

This might have been related to automatic operator scanning.  Freerunner is 
especially slow on this operation.  The API was changed recently to disable 
this.  Can you test git HEAD to see if this still happens?
