Hi Can anyone help me here please. I am constructing a Nokia SmartMessage picture message. How many octects can I use? I know with EMS I have 140 octects per message. The SmartMessage I've coded is over that though. It consists of a 32x32 pixel image and some text. Below is the Hex string for the message. UDH: 060504158A0000 Data:300000490D0A7370656564506173730D0A0D0A4576656E74204E616D6520486572652064642 F6D6D2F7979792048483A6D6D0D0A526566204E723A2030313233343536373839303132333435360 20084002020010000FFFF0000FFFF3FFF00033FFF000333FF000333FF000333FF000333FF000333F F000333FF0003303F0003303F00033FF0F0033FF0F0033FF0F0033FF0F0033FF0F0033FF0F0033FF 0F0033FF0F0033FFF03F33FFF03F33FFF03333FFF03333FFF03C33FFF03C33FFF03333FFF03333FF F00033FFF00030000FFFF0000FFFF Bryce, please help. I am going nuts here. If I only have a limited number of octets how do I concat SmartMessages? | |||

Can anyone tell me how to work out how many octets the text part of a EMS picture message takes up? I know I have 140 octets per message to work with. The UDH takes up a number of those octets. How do I work out how much space I have left for text? | |||

Hi Werner, For Nokia Smart Messaging, you use the standard UDH headers for segmentation. If for example, you sent that message out via the binary message other web form of NowSMS, you'd see that it does the conversion for you.

When sending an EMS picture message, the text is encoded using standard GSM 7-bit encoding. So 8 characters of text fit into 7 bytes. If the number of available bytes is not divisible by 7, then figure 1 character per byte for the left over bytes. |
