Bug in Nokia 6600 v. 3.42.1 ???

Hi,

I need to send invisible SMS to mobile phones.

An invisible SMS is a SMS whose DCS value = 0xC0 (Message Waiting Indication Group : Discard Message and Set Indication Inactive).

The SMS is received but the phone doesn't alert the user and doesn't display the SMS.

It doesn't work on Nokia 6600 v. 3.42.1 but well on Nokia 6600 v. 3.49.2

Do you know it is due to a bug of Nokia 6600 v. 3.42.1 ?

Thank you,

Laurent.

MWI doesn't even work w/ my service provider so you may have some issue w/ the network you are on not sending certain headers. You try this while roaming on a different provider?

Not at all : I use my provider and I know that it supports MWI.

I send MWI on hundreds of phones at the same time and it works, even for the Nokia 6600 v 3.49.2 but not for the Nokia 6600 v 3.42.1

Wasn't doubting you, just griping about my provider😉. How are you sending the MWI's? I'm sick of getting a sms w/ 'you have 8 voicemails'. If they aren't going to give you MWI then at least tell me who called in the sms. Annoying as anything to not be able to set different alert tones for it too. So what are you using to send the code I'll give it a shot on the 4.09.1
