Has anyone tried the Sony Ericsson EMS converter 1.1? It converts mid files to ems format fine but the option of creating ems picture files requires hex with .txt or .ota extension. I tried using the NowSMS file2hex converter for converting an operator logo to hex and storing the value in .txt file..but it didin't work.. the ems converter gives error about not a valid picture! | |||

I haven't used it, but assuming that it wants an OTA bitmap file, did you strip the MCC/MNC headers from the Nokia operator logo? I assume it just wants the OTA bitmap file. ImageMagick is a good tool for converting graphics into OTA bitmap format ... use ".otb" as the file extension when converting to OTA bitmap format. In fact, here's another thread where I give an example: http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/2018.html | |||

We have tried to use that SonyEricsson tool, but even with provided examples we could not manage to successfully convert the image file. | |||

The following two threads talk about converting a BMP (or GIF/JPG) into the OTA bitmap format used by Nokia Smart Messaging. http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/504.html http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/972.html The primary alternative to Nokia Smart Messaging is EMS. Here is a thread that talks about using similar tools to convert a picture to EMS format: http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/2018.html And more advanced EMS discussion: http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/1758.html http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/4807.html http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/2292.html |
