oFono is a free software project for mobile telephony ( GSM/ UMTS) applications. It is built on 3GPP standards and uses a high-level D-Bus API for use by telephony applications. oFono is free software released under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2. [4]

History

oFono was jointly announced for Linux by Intel and Nokia on 11 May 2009. [2] [5] Nokia has since shipped oFono with the MeeGo-based N9. [6]

After the MeeGo project ended, Intel collaborated with Samsung on a new Linux-based project named Tizen. The first release of Tizen contained another telephony stack [7] but in 2012 they announced to replace that with oFono. [5]

In early 2013 Canonical Ltd announced Ubuntu Touch which also uses oFono. [8]

As another successor project to MeeGo, Sailfish OS also uses oFono for telephony. [9]

Since version 1.4 (released in August 2016), NetworkManager can use oFono as a modem manager. [10]

Maemo Leste is using oFono. [11]

PipeWire allows using it to connect to Bluetooth headsets since version 0.3.8. [12]
