5G-nr export log empty

[nickbeee]

escribe the bug** A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

When exporting logs, the 5g nr logs contain no data (zero bytes). LTE and GSM are working. I do receive app notified connect and disconnect of 5g nr on my device.

To Reproduce After 5g nr notifications, export the log files to local storage. Open file which will be empty.

Expected behavior 5g nr logfile is populated with CSV data

Thanks for the report and for sending diagnostics, that was very helpful.

Have you connected to any standalone (SA) 5G-NR cells, or just non-standalone (NSA) cells as depicted in your screenshot? SA is when you are connected to 5G-NR only (no simultaneous LTE connection), and you typically see a provider name, PLMN, NCI, PCI, TAC, etc. NSA is when you are connected to NR and LTE at the same time, and the NR information is usually limited (missing provider/PLMN/NCI/TAC).

Right now, the app is configured to not log any cells that do not have a valid PLMN (provider). I could add an option to log cells with a missing PLMN so that NSA NR cells would be recorded with the limited information available. Would you find that to be useful?

Thanks for enlightening me how the different 5G NSA and SA bits work. Yes, it would be useful to have the option to log NSA sites as I'm trying to build up a picture of what my local coverage is.

Another observation on my Pixel 6 - I switched a physical SIM to an ESIM. With the ESIM I never saw any 5G-NR until I changed back to the physical SIM, so maybe no 5G-NR on the ESIM on that device.
