when I pass mcc=310 and mnc=12 to **SLQSGetPLMNName** it is returning a short name of Sprint. It should be Verizon. Using SLQS04.00.25 on an EM7565. Any ideas?

From the Docs … "If pMncPcsStatus is not present, an MNC smaller than 100 is assumed to be a two-digit value, and an MNC greater than or equal to 100 is assumed to be a three digit value. " I am guessing this means that pMncPcsStatus is NULL;

Hi rob.dinoff.ext

Could you please try pkgs API on EM7565?  
./pkgs/qa/qatesthostx86\_64 -p ./build/bin/hostx86\_64/slqssdk -r

t378 SLQSGetPLMNName

Amazingly now saying AT&T …

Is the code to qatesthostx86\_64 available? Would be nice to see examples of how to use all the APIs

No, I don’t have it. It has been built into a binary file.
