Hi everyone,

my falcom samba 3g modem is not working with the latest release of smstools3...

It doesn't matter which init strings i use the modem is always registering with the network but it's not possible to send sms :-(

Here is my current smsd.conf file:

devices = GSM1 logfile = /var/log/smsd.log loglevel = 7 [GSM1] device = /dev/ttyUSB0 incoming = yes memory_start = no pin = XXXX baudrate = 115200 rtscts = yes

Log:

Any ideas? I've already tried other baudrate values ..

Assuming that you have not altered the log shown, please check that you do not have started smsd twice. Destination number shown in the log is not the same inside the PDU string. Also, GSM1 uses old mode but your smsd.conf does not have mode = old defined. Probably you have tried it but not restarted the smsd. Try again with new mode which is the default.

Setting memory_start = no is not correct, this settings requires a number. Value no is translated as 0.
