Missing CellId info on Xperia XA2 Plus [duplicate]

For some reason I can not get CellId info from this device. Not with two SIM's inserted and not with one SIM inserted.

This no longer returns a CellId dictionary entry:

dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.ofono /ril_0 org.ofono.NetworkRegistration.GetProperties

And

cat /run/state/namespaces/Cellular/CellName

returns an emtpy value.

It does work fine on my Xperia X and Jolla 1.

Thanks spag! Is it correct that only one sim reports a "cid"?

I haven't tried it with two SIMs yet, sorry.

But org.nemomobile.ofono.CellInfo.GetCells gives you all the cells the modem/sim /ril_0 is monitoring and you also don't get a cid from any other cells except for one to so maybe they've missed it with the second SIM entirely.

Will have to re-check as soon as I have a working second SIM available.

The SailfishOS should be "same" as for other platforms. Any ideas why the dbus command is different?

This commands should both work on XA2 and X.

I think they also work on Jolla C but, if I remember it right, you can't see neighboring cells on the Jolla1. Maybe due to some restrictions inside the modem, no idea.
