Does libqmi actually have low-level sim read capability?

Yes, it seems so :

$ qmicli -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --help-uim
UIM options
--uim-read-transparent=[0xNNNN,0xNNNN,...]                                            Read a transparent file given the file path
--uim-get-file-attributes=[0xNNNN,0xNNNN,...]                                         Get the attributes of a given file
--uim-get-card-status                                                                 Get card status
--uim-reset                                                                           Reset the service state
--uim-noop

I'm not used to QMI but I will try to compare libqmi and ofono's read_transparent implementations.

Another thing to try would be to implement read_imsi() method for drivers/qmimodem/sim.c. This should get you to the point where gprs is initialized even if all low-level reads from the SIM fail.

It seems a great idea.

It's an excellent idea !
Looking for read_imsi implementation, I found qmimodem-legacy which fit prefectly to my modem.
After a few fix because first Sierra net interface is buggy (wwan0), I'm now enable to use fully "Connman - ofono" features

I will try to cleanup my work, find a way to force use of qmimodem-legacy for this Sierra chip and submit all these modifications.

Thanks again Denis
