SonyEricsson phones can't send SMS

[Stéphane Maniaci]

Binary package hint: gnome-phone-manager

Hi, I'm running Hardy Heron Alpha 2 up-to-date, and I recently installed GPM in its 0.40-3 version, I successfuly connect my v630i SE Phone with Bluetooth, but sending SMS fails (nothing happens, no reception and no tax).

Launching in terminal prints :

steph@steph-desktop:~/gnome-phone-manager-0.8$ gnome-phone-manager

Similar behaviour --- with a k750i, there is additionally no notification on received messages. This functionality with this phone has worked in the past but was broken early in Hardy.

What extra information is needed on this bug to confirm or triage it?

I see the same behariour with my Sony Ericsson W800i; the connection works fine (the below debug output is produced during connection), but SMS messages never reach their recipient.

I've reported the bug and it is fixed upstream in the version 0.50; so it worth request a Freeze Exception; someone can request that here ?
please notice in the request gnokii as also to be updated to the latest version.

thanks

Baptiste. I was using gnome-phone-manager 0.51 and gnokii from interpid, but I still getting these errors as above. Is there any workaround?

[Stéphane Maniaci (stephh)]

There's patch upstream (see http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=513491), which has already been commited in Gnokii CVS. So you may need to get the latest Gnokii trunk, and compile GPM trunk with it. Then it should work.

[Baptiste Mille-Mathias (bmillemathias)]

Someone can confirmed the bug is fixed?

Thanks

I can confirm that it was fixed since I have successfully sent SMS out on ubuntu 10.04.
But I can also confirm that it fails again on ubuntu 10.10.
