 Frame format for MBUS version 1:

  Request from Computer/Answer from Phone:

   { DestDEV, SrcDEV, FrameLength, MsgType, {block}, id, ChkSum }

       where DestDEV, SrcDEV:   0x00: phone
                                0xf8: PC (wakeup msg)
                                0xe4: PC (normal msg)
             FrameLength:       length of data frame. Maximal 0x78. Longer
                                frames are divided into smaller.
             MsgType:           see List
             {block}:           main frame
             id:                request identity number 1..n, incremented after
                                the request is accepted
             ChkSum:            XOR on frame's all numbers

  Ack from Phone:
    
    { DestDEV, 0x00, FrameLength, MsgType, {block} , id, ChkSum }

       where DestDEV:           taken from original request packet
             FrameLength:       0x7f, when DestDEV = 0xe4
                                0x7e, when DestDEV = 0xf8
             MsgType:           see List. Present only, when DestDEV = 0xf8
             {block}:           main frame. Present only, when DestDEV = 0xf8
             id:                request identity number 1..?, corresponding
                                to the original request packet id
                                the request is accepted
             ChkSum:            XOR on frame's all numbers

    Update: description above according to the
    http://www.gadgets.demon.co.uk/nokia21xx/protocol.html.

      0x7e is actually registration acknowledge. Both have nothing to do
      with DestDEV, except that special device needs to be used for
      registration.

  Ack from Computer:

    { 0x00, SrcDEV, 0x7f, id, ChkSum }

       where SrcDEV:            taken from response packet
             id:                request identity number 1..?, corresponding
                                to the response packet id
                                the request is accepted
             ChkSum:            XOR on frame's all numbers

   Port settings:
     Speed 9600 bps, Bits 8, ParityOdd, Stop Bits 1, DTR and RTS logic 0

   In the MBUS bus, the phone has only one connector for transmition and
   reception.

   Because of this characteristics of the phone connector, every time that the
   PC writes into the phone it is writing as well into its own Rx. So every
   time the PC sends info into the phone it finds that same information in its
   own Rx buffers, like a mirror copy. This should be discarded.
   
   The communications is made like an old cb radio, only one
   talking at a time. Many transmission are made this way:

     <computer sends request>
     <phone sends ack>
     <phone sends response>
     <computer sends ack>

   Some frames are sent from phone without asking for them

   You have to implement collision protocol. IE. you should listen for
   what you are transmitting, and if it does not come back, you have
   collision.

   You should wait for bus to be free for 3 miliseconds before normal
   message, and for 2.5 miliseconds before acknowledge. You should wait
   for acknowledge for 200 miliseconds, then retransmit.

 Frame format for FBUS version 1:

    { FrameID, FrameLength, MsgType, SeqNo, {block}, ChkSum }

         where FrameID:         0x01 Command frame from computer to Nokia 
                                0x02 ??? - Data call frame from computer to Nokia - ??? 
                                0x03 Data call frame from Nokia to computer 
                                0x04 Command frame from Nokia to computer 
               FrameLength:     {block} + 2
               MsgType:         see List
               SeqNo:           Sequence number of command in case where direction is
                                from ME to computer, the sequence number is 
                                counting from 0x30 to 0x37 and resetting back to 0x30.
                                Also seqnos 0x00 to 0x07 have been spotted on some
                                3110s (but not all, maybe different firmware revs?).
                                When direction is from computer to ME,
                                sequence number counts from 0x08 to 0x0f and resets back to 0x08.
                                It may not be required to be this way.
                                Sequence numbers are used in acknowledging commands.
               ChkSum1:         CRC = 0;
                                for (i = 0; i < (2 + CMD_LEN); i++)
                                  CRC ^= frame[i];

               DestDev, SrcDev: 0x00: mobile phone
                                0x0c: TE (FBUS) [eg. PC]
               MsgType:         see List
               FrameLength:     {block} + 2 (+ 1 if PaddingByte exists)
               FramesToGo:      0x01 means the last frame
               SeqNo:           [0xXY]

                                     Y: sequence number
               PaddingByte:     0x00 if FrameLength would be an odd number
                                anyways it doesn't exists
               ChkSum1:         XOR on frame's odd numbers
               ChkSum2?:        XOR on frame's even numbers

                                0x48: DLR3 cable?
                                0xF8: unknown target?

               ChkSum:          XOR on frame's all numbers

    Please note that M2BUS has only one checksum: XOR on frame[FrameID..SeqNo]

  Ack:
    
    { FrameID, DestDEV, SrcDEV, 0x7f, Id_SeqNo, ChkSum }
        
         where Id_SeqNo:        Is the sequence number that you are

        0xXX   -> one byte

go HF and IGN off:
  1F 00 04 79 00 05 02 01 01 61 00 SQ CS
     enables carkit mode + powers phone off (1 min delay) + req. mute status
