Some mobiles cannot handle split SMS. Try another one.

  Sorry again that its becoming like "SMPP for dummies through mail-list" :)
  I`m very clear about the last scenario when UDH is not present and the long 
sms is treated like multiple ones.

  But i`m getting messed up with the other scenario when we set the 
concatenation as true. what shoud I do in order to make the handset assemble 
the whole sms correctly? are the any other parameters I should set? As I 
explained before, using UDH, the content get corrupted.

    Kannel actually sends this separately. The extra UDH is required by handset 
to know that a multipart message is being received.

    >>Is the splitting process optional in kannel, so we may have the privilege 
to make it true or false?
    as i pointed out, try with the "concatenation = false" in the sendsms-user 
group
    I guess you can have number of sendsms-user groups with different 
priviliges.





    Thanks

      Is it impossible for kannel to send the long sms separately  but being

      Is the splitting process optional in kannel, so we may have the privilege 
to make it true or false?

      Thanks

        The splitting is done on kannel side. please look at smpp connection 
logs. You will see an extra UDH added to each SMS sent by kannel. I assume you 
can disable this in sendsms-use group by adding "concatenation = false". Every 
sms will be send separately and of course received separately on your handset.

        Sorry but I didnt get it :)

        we the device cannot assemble the long sms? The splitting process 
including extra characters is done on the smpp server or kannel side?

        Thanks

        This is expected behaviour.

        Hi guys,

        I have the below conf:

        group = sendsms-user
        username = b
        password = b
        concatenation = true
        max-messages = 3


        group = sms-service
        keyword = default
        catch-all = true
        max-messages = 0
        concatenation = true

        When I`m trying to send an MT sms from my application with 161 
characters, the sms is splitted in two parts and in the beginning of both parts 
are added 6 characters like this ??????
        Any idea what could be the reason?

        Thanks
        Elton
