one comment about Matt's approach to use SIM storage: While debugging AT2 over the last few days I discovered that Nokia phones have a big weakness which make them only really work well if using SIM storage.
While testing I sent messages to myself. For some reason the message went out but my code didnt detect it. So I've seen AT+CMGS=... > <pdu> And the message was sent and my code was waiting for "OK". In this moment the phone's display was saying "there is no space left to store the incoming message". In other words, the message I've just sent already came back to the phone but couldnt be delivered to the AT interface as it was busy still with the sending request. With the Siemens modems this was never the case as they simply gave an inidcation of a waiting message. So its obviously that Nokiapones will never work reliably with the way we send & receive messages. So for those cases the use of SIM storage is useful. The nokia phones also do not support packet mode. Packet mode is a different SMS access method compared to AT commands whereas you switch to packet mode and you receive packets with headers and trailers and checksums which you have to aknowledge (as it is also the case with most protocols like EMI/UCP or CIMD2). As using the AT commands often is kludgy and modems interpret standards slightly different, i was looking into using packet mode in AT2 (or maybe AT3...). My Nokia 6210 however doesnt understand the command to switch to packet mode. So, yes we want SIM storage support. But we should make it configurable. I agree with Stipe's comment of having temporarely smsc_at3.c would be advisable. I would then come up with at4 for packet mode :-)... But one day we will end up with at5 incorporating all of the features under one hat. -- Andreas Fink Fink-Consulting ------------------------------------------------------------------ Tel: +41-61-6932730 Fax: +41-61-6932729 Mobile: +41-79-2457333 Address: A.
