Special characters ÆØÅ æøå cause the gsmdemo.exe not to send sms

[fiskers]

if i don't use Special characters like (æøå) then no problems
Special characters like (æøå)  is In Danish..

if i try ActiveXperts SMS and MMS Toolkit GSM then æøå is ok ....
i use a siemens m35i modem

if you make a workaround i am ready to bye a lic.

Best regards

Hello

Hmmm .... it's strange ...
The SmsSend() method supports Unicode chars. Please show me how do you send your special chars.

Also we need to know following:
1) Delphi version
2) Windows version

Hello

Please try to send needed sms directly from code. Place new button and call something like this:

procedure TForm1.Button222Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
  nrGSm1.SmsSend(Edit1.Text,'My strange chars here!', chConfirm.Checked);
end;

the same problem if i do like this

procedure TForm1.Button222Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
 nrGSm1.SmsSend(Edit1.Text,'My strange chars here æøå!', chConfirm.Checked);
end;

if i skip the characters (æøå) no problem

Hello

Thank you for your information.

Please set DetailLevel of TnrLogFile component into dlDebug and rebuild GSMDemo.
Try to send message again and send to me log file gsmdemo.log.

Hi guys

I have exactly the same problem -  :o :o

I have tried upgrading to 9.08 but that doesn't work either!!

The strange thing here is that the message is sent and it is received on the terminal - however the terminal refuses to open the message, it gives an error that the message format isn't supported - but in the message list, it actually shows the first part of the message - so when I just send ÆØÃ... æøå then I can see ÆØÃ...æøå in the list.

D2009 - XP, WIN7 - same same

I found the "problem" to this issue.

The auto detection of the coding is wrong.

Here's a workaround -

Use SmsSend(aPDU) instead of SmsSend(phone, text, confirm) and set the coding maually like this.


          aPDU := TnrPduSms.Create(False);
          try
            aPDU.Phone := phoneno;
            aPDU.Coding := pc7bit;
            aPDU.Confirm := False;
            aPDU.AutoCutText := True;
            aPDU.DateTime := Now;
            aPDU.Text := msg;
            nrGsm.SmsSend(aPDU);
            nrGsm.SmsSendWait;
            sleep(100);
            aPDU.Free;
          except on e:exception do
             begin
               HandleGSMException('ScanAndSMS GSM ', e.message);
               exit;
             end;
          end;

Romano, please have a look at the autodetect function  ;D

Cannot say what works for Ole, but for me (9.08) it looks like this

pc7bit - works
pc8bit - doesn't work
pc16bit - works

In all cases a SMS is sent, but only 7bit and 16bit can be opened at my terminals Nokia E75, E90, E50.
