Operating system name and version: Debian Stretch (Raspbian)
Version of smsd: 3.1.15 (default with apt-get on this version of OS)
Smsd installed from: package repository
Name and model of a modem / phone: Quectel M35 Revision MTK 0828 (This is a simmodem with 16 SIM slots)
Interface: USB
Alright, I am having trouble getting this 16-slot modem to work with smstools on my Raspberry Pi 3.
It is working well with Gammu and also with gammu-smsd, so the sims and the modem are OK.
The sims (AND SMStools work perfect when I insert it into a K3765 modem, --> Only difference is this: /dev/ttyUSB0)
Each of the SIM slots in the modem are visible: /dev/ttyACMx (where x=0-15)
Issue is that, somehow, it cannot find the incoming SMS on the SIM. (Only intend to use it for incoming SMS, sending is not important)
I will add my config + some logging in a second post, as I am on another pc right now.

This is the attempt with check_memory_method = 3 0,1,2 and 3 are not working so far... I feel it has something to do with that... not sure. Output of lsusb: The Exar Corp. devices are the simmodems somehow. Output of ls /dev/ttyACM* -al I am really at loss here, been tinkering around for days already... There is ERROR in the logs: "Modem did not accept the pre-init string" Anything I can do, to make it all work... ? |

Alright, digging deeper again... 2018-10-24 13:50:33,6, GSM1: Checking memory size 2018-10-24 13:50:33,7, GSM1: -> AT+CPMS? 2018-10-24 13:50:33,7, GSM1: Command is sent, waiting for the answer. (5) 2018-10-24 13:50:33,7, GSM1: <- +CPMS: "ME",0,10,"ME",0,10, "SM",1,25 OK 2018-10-24 13:50:33,6, GSM1: Used memory is 0 of 10 2018-10-24 13:50:33,6, GSM1: No SMS received This tells me there is 1 SMS on the SIM actually...? 1 out of possible 25. But somehow SMSTools only checks ME... What setting is needed to check the actual SIM (1 of 25)? Guess that would solve the issue?  |

Try this setting: init = AT+CPMS="SM","SM","SM"

Cheers! As you have many similar devices in your setup, have you noticed that the configuration can be shortened like this: [default]
init = AT+CPMS="SM","SM,"SM"
incoming = high
#memory_start = 0
baudrate = 115200
check_memory_method = 3
#check_network = 2
pin = ignore
read_timeout = 10
#report = yes
report_device_details = yes
[GSM1]
device = /dev/ttyACM0
[GSM2]
device = /dev/ttyACM1
[GSM3]
device = /dev/ttyACM14
[GSM4]
device = /dev/ttyACM15

Thanks again for your support and hard work!

Hi @glassie, did you need to do anything special to get the modem pool working with your raspberry pi? I'm trying to do the same thing but having problems with Linux not creating the ttyACM files.
