Hi,
I've been testing Now SMS with phones like Nokia 8210, 8850, 8910 and it worked nicely. I just bought a Nokia 7650 in order to test the MMS feature and I cannot connect it to Now SMS via infrared port. I'm using a laptop with Windows XP. I can send files over the link and even the diagnostics was OK, but the Now SMS doesnt recognize it. Sometimes it says: "Unable to connect to modem...", sometimes even worse it just stoned :-( Any suggestion?

Levi,

First a word of warning about the Nokia 7650. None of the Nokia Series 60 phones (7650/3650/6600) support receiving SMS messages via the modem interface. So you can send only.

I've never connected the 7650 using infrared (I've used bluetooth). Do you have a modem driver installed for it? If you go into the Phone & Modem Options in the Windows Control Panel, can you successfully query the modem under the diagnostics section for the modem?

Hi Bryce,
XP automatically installed drivers for the IR link and I see two? "Standard modem over IR link" #1 and #2 in the Phone&Modem Options. Actually, when I connected the 7650 by selecting Connectivity-Modem-Connect (via infrared), the link #2 is activated (on COM8)and I can successfully query the modem under the diagnostics. In this case, Now SMS get stoned if I try to add the modem to it! When connecting the phone by selecting Connectivity-Infrared,the link #1 is active on COM7 and Windows Diagnostics says: "The port that the modem attached could not be opened...".
However, if 7650 doesn't support receiving SMS then it doesn't seem to be a right choice for me. What is your suggestion - a Nokia 7250 or 6100 would be better to test SMS/MMS with NowSMS?
Many thanks in advance!

Levi,

I wish I had more experience with the infrared drivers.

I've had feedback from a number of people who are using the 7250 as a modem. There is a USB cable for that device. The 6100 should work, but a quick search through my archives doesn't find any feedback from anyone who has tried it.

Karthick,

Are you using NowSMS, or are you just talking about sending MMS with a Nokia 7650 from the phonepad through the regular operator MMSC?

(I'm just trying to figure out if you need assistance with NowSMS.)
