Has anyone else ever received this on their phones? I am using NOWSMS2006 with Multitech Modem and sending messages from the Web Interface and through the 2-way keywords (I wrote a program to echo my text) and once in a while, I get a text that has nothing but */Missing Text/*. A few minutes later, I got the text I was expecting. This doesn't happen all the time but it happened several times now in the past 3 months. I was just wondering if anyone has any ideas what this is. I checked the SMSOUT logs and there is no record of the modem/NOWSMS sending this. Any ideas? Thanks. RS | |||

Hi Ramon, Are you sending long SMS text messages? What you describe is common on some phones when they receive parts of a long SMS text message. Until all parts are received, they display the received part and mark the parts not received with text to indicate a partial message. -- Malcolm Now Wireless Support | |||

By default NowSMS uses the utf-8 character set when routing messsagesto a 2way command. If your script cannot handle utf-8, it is possible to configure a different character set instead on the 2way page of the NowSMS configuration. There you could configure it for gb2312. -Malcolm | |||

hi malcolm, i can set charset to gb2312, but it seem it doesn't appear as nice chinese character in ms sql server. i wonder can it support zh-CN (chinese prc)? i tried zh-CN but it don't work. | |||

We use Windows APIs to perform the conversion, and can pretty much support any of the character sets that Windows supports. I'm not familiar with zh-CN myself, but I know another commonly used character set is big5. |
