Hi
Had a problem regarding sending sms with predefined melody and no text with GSM7 bit encoding. I hv connected the fone via serial cable and it is unable to send the message but if i change the encoding to UCS2 it allows me to send the same message.
I checked the PDU -
00 55 0B 0C 91 19 89 09 03 45 54 00 00 FF 06 04 0B 02 00 05
Can anyone please tell me what might be wrong.

The inbuilt GSM modems in some phones don't like to send a message with only UDH, but no text.

A trick that usually works is to set the DCS to 8 (Unicode/UCS2), and add 00 20 (a space character) on to the end.
