Re: Help needed for sending Utf-8 characters using Kannel
Yes, but in doing so you waste half of the SMS capacity. With Jovan's sugestion you don't.

I understand what you mean but what i have decided now is to actually do Percent encoding for URIs for text message. Doing this will help send message in any language. I did same used http interface of kannel it works fine for sending any symbol's Euro or chinese language symbol etc though i have to set coding=2 charset=utf-8.

Re: Help needed for sending Utf-8 characters using Kannel
Nikos, Yes correct but then would Jovan suggestion work for Greek, Chinese, Hindi lets say any other character set? Also did you got any idea about issue i am facing while using sqlbox?

As Nikos pointed out, If you want to save on payload (number of characters that you can send in one sms) and use the same service to send in different character sets the wisest solution would be to set alt-dcs, coding, charset and every other relevant parameter on per sms basis. Just specify these parameters in the cgi-bin/sendsms url. This means when you want to use Greek characters you'll use the default GSM 7 alphabet (alt-dcs = 0 or alt-dcs = 1 depending on the default alphabet used by the SMSC), for Chinese and Hindi use UTF-8 encoding (charset =utf-8 coding = 2).

SMS from phone to another through smsc
Hi All, I wonder if it is possible to send messages from one phone to another through my smsc? If it is possible how should I do it? BR, Antti _ Hotmail: Powerful Free email with security by Microsoft. https://signup.live.com/signup.aspx?id=60969

Kannel is SMPP client (SMS gateway), not a SMSC. When you are sending a message the flow is: Sender's phone - Sender's SMSC - Receivers SMSC - Receiver phone When you use Kannel for the same scenario: Sender's phone - Sender's SMSC - Receivers SMSC - GSM Modem or SMPP connection - Kannel - Application for processing of the messages The message flow is the same in both cases (kannel acts like receiver's mobile phone from the first case). If you just want to send a message from one to another mobile phone do it directly ;) Can you explain what do you want to achieve? BR, Jovan
RE: SMS from phone to another through smsc
Well, I'm trying to ask if I could use Kannel and my mobile phone acting like SMSC, but I guess that is not possible, right? :) Maybe I should not think and do it directly as you said :) BR Antti Date: Wed, 24 Feb 2010 13:59:56 +0100 Subject: Re: SMS from phone to another through smsc From: chomb...@gmail.com To: katupa...@hotmail.com CC: users@kannel.org On Wed, Feb 24, 2010 at 1:22 PM, Antti Rikman katupa...@hotmail.com wrote: I wonder if it is possible to send messages from one phone to another through my smsc?

Re: SMS from phone to another through smsc
However, when you send out an SMS from your mobile, it will go through your provider's SMSc not kannel (or its attached modem). This is hardwired when you buy the service.
