hi all,

i have read all the related MMS threads, read all on MMS notification and body content. i also do not have problem understanding the decoding. however, after all the theory session, my first implementation failed miserably. can any1 help?

my mms notifcation via sms:

------------------------------------------------
0605040B8423F000622
6170706C69636174696F
6E2F766E642E7761702E
6D6D732D6D6573736167
6500AF84
------------------------------------------------
8C:82 = notification
98:3139363200 = transaction id
8D90 = ver
89:11:80:73616C65734073706C75732E636F6D00 = from
96:636F6D008A80 = subj
8E:02:3A98 = msg size
88:04:81:02:0E10 = expiry
83:6874xxx...... = http://location/xxx.mms
------------------------------------------------

i am wondering can anyone advise the following:

q) is the push dest/src ports of 0B84/23F0 applicable to most oeprators worldwide?

q) i am quite embarrass to ask should the entire notification codes be put at the SMS UDH section while the TEXT empty or splite them into UDH/TEXT respectively as above?

q) according to spec (WAP-209-MMS), for notification sms, only 7 fields are mandatory. if i omit "from", "to" and "subj" will it not work? will some operator enforce say "subj" is mandatory?

regarding the above example, delivery report shown SMS received by recipient, but my mobile never beep as though SMS never received at all. what else can i check? :-(

thank you.

Was the first problem a missing "0" following the UDH?

Regarding notification received, but MMS message not retrieved, many mobile operators block delivery from external MMSCs.

hi bryce,

i must say you have been very very helpful judging from all your earlier posts. i feel like rewarding you as i have benefitted from many of your explanations, see how it goes from my undertakings.

nope, the missing zero is actually caused by when i "bold red" the text. :p

my first problem was actually the notification all long received, but the screen never lit and the [G] icon (denotes GPRS activated) was not clear at all.

for my operator, they have stressed downloading from 3rd party site is allowed. so i plan to next setup a config to retrieve a test MMS file at your website instead ("btsmms.mms"). if successful means either my server not WAP enabled or my codes something wrong. i will post here again if there are significant findings on such problem. ;)
