Not really.  If it's got a QCDM interface you can get the actual 3GPP
protocol packets for the various logical channels.  This is probably
what logcat is doing to get data.  For example:

https://cgit.freedesktop.org/ModemManager/ModemManager/tree/libqcdm/src/log-items.h#n224

these are literally the protocol messages from over-the-air. 
Unfortunately we haven't RE-d many yet, especially the LTE ones.

Otherwise, you might be able to get more detailed cause codes out of
QMI for the call failure.  But as we know, those aren't great.
