Howdy, I am trying to use the NowSMS gateway to send a simple SMS message to a phone number with a port number. For example, 1234567890:50000. From my SMSC logs, it appears that the Gateway is stripping out the colon. Specifically, the input phone number to the gateway and output from the gateway are as follows: input: 1234567890:50000 output: 12345678905000 How can I get the colon to pass thru the gateway? In case you are wondering why I want to do this, it is because I am trying to use Java's Wireless Messaging API. The Java Wireless Messaging API (WMA) uses a port number to distinguish incoming SMS messages. A MIDlet designed to use WMA might listen for incoming SMS messages directed to port 50000, for example. | |||

Hi Mike, See the following thread, as I think it will help you: http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/2008.html To cut to the quick, you're going to need to send the message with a UDH of: 060504C3500000 C350 in the above, is the destination port in hex. The 0000 is the source port that follows is the source port, which you can also set if required. As the thread referenced above mentions, if you are sending text messages (as opposed to binary messages), then you'll most likely want to use NowSMS v5.01 (or the v5.50 beta), where you can more easily mix UDH with text messages. -bn | |||
