Want to create Metadata for Mobile Broadband Device using ICCID

Question

Hello, I'm trying to create metadata package for testing mobile broadband API.

I know that this privileges is given only to mobile operators. 

I've created metadata package as it was in this thread, but with my operator's ID.

The problem is that customer is in another region and his SIM cards not working in my area, So I'm trying to create as much as possible before moving to customer's region.

SMS message send, receive, and SIM management sample tells that there's no SMS device has been found.

Could you suggest some solution?

Thank you in advance.

Hi there,

Based on the log, there is a typic error:

Error updating mobile broadband account data store.  Error is 0x80070005: Access is denied.

This error indicates that the app is not given previlege to MBIM(SMS) api. So you may reconfigure your metadata by checking(see below snapshot):

• Hardware ID in Associations tab:make sure the PID&VID of your MBIM device is added.
• Make sure Package Name, Publisher,App ID in Applications tab are strictly same with those items in your windows store app.

Then, configure metadata:

1. run CMD with administrator privilege, type in bcdedit –set testsigning on , press enter key, make sure it is successful
2. Delete keys in registry, if they do not exist, skip this step, locate to Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE->Microsoft->WwanSvc->MobileBroadbandAccounts,
   delete Accounts and NetworkInterfaceBindings under MobileBroadbandAccounts
3. delete multiloc folder in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceMetadataCache\dmrccache, if it does
        not exist, skip this step.
4. copy metadata to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceMetadataStore\en-US
5. wait for a short time, you will see a folder named multiloc is generated
     in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceMetadataCache\dmrccache and in folder multiloc, a folder same name with metadat's is generated, open SoftwareInfo.xml in  folder Software, make sure Identity Name, Publisher ,Applciation Id are same with the on in metadata; if they are not, repeat step 1 to 5
