Hi Philippe,

This is a gentle reminder not to top-post on this mailing list.

If you're getting to this point then it isn't related to the refactoring
I've done.

Bertrand or Guillaume might be better suited to answer this question.

We should not succeed in setting Powered=True unless the cdma_netreg
atom has indicated it is registered to a network.

I'm confused, gprs?  Are you talking about CDMA or GSM?  There are no
contexts in CDMA, this is why the API looks the way it does.

For CDMA, ConnMan should handle automatic reconnection, it is up to the
ofono plugin in ConnMan to do the right thing (e.g. listen to
cdma_netreg state changes and attempt setting Powered then)
