Hi,
I keep getting a CMS ERROR 301 in the SMSDEBUG.LOG when I NowSMS attempts to receive a new SMS via GSM Data Suite. I found this same problem happens is I use the Nokia Data Card 2.0 and also if I use a Nokia 6210 via a Data Cable.

NowSMS eventually receives the message but after considerable delay as it appears to reset the Modem when it gets the CMS ERROR.

I was wondering if there is a solution as I am trying to build a simple interactive sms application and the 10 delay receiving messages means it is not very interactive.

Note: This happens with v4.20a and with 5.0 Beta 1.

Thanks in advance:


The following is a snipbit of the SMSDEBUG.LOG:

Jerome,

That is odd that you would be receiving this "CMS ERROR: 301" periodically. I've searched our archives and I can't find anything about this error that would seem to relate.

My advice would be that in the v5.0 (beta) release, there is a new setting related to receiving SMS messages, where you can select Receive to "Device Memory" or "SIM card". Try these different settings to see if one might work more reliably with your device.

I'd also be curious about excerpts from your SMSDEBUG.LOG, and what the results of AT+CPMS commands are when NowSMS initialises.
