I have to say that I do not know why you do not receive delivery reports .

Assuming that report was not disabled in the SMS file, and assuming that SMS was delivered to the receivers phone, report should be received. My Huawei E1552 is using CNMI=0,0,0,0,0 and I also tried with 2,0,0,2,1. With both settings report was received as expected.

Have you tried the current SIM in the handset, is the report received when it's asked?

This is the problem, the SMS was delivered to the receivers phone. I've tried with CNMI=0,0,0,0,0 and with 2,0,0,2,1 but I never get the report.

The SIM is ok and it gets the report in Nokia phone.

What can i try ?

There is one more thing to try, a dual-memory handler:

primary_memory = SM
secondary_memory = SR

My E1552 also has SR memory available, with 10 slots, but it still stores reports into the SM memory. Perhaps your device uses SR memory.

I have done the changes and it does not work.

Is this issue still active?

But in any case I don't know the solution, other than replace the stick.
