Not receiving SMSs - biketool - 04-16-2022

Looking for ideas on how to diagnose that I can make and receive phonecalls, use mobile data, but I can only send SMSs.
I could run the SMS in terminal and see if it is throwing an error when it receives a SMS, anyone know the name?

found the fix, thanks to JooAzvendo in the #mobian irc.oftc.net server
first we ssh in or open a terminal window to see if anything is stuck as (receiving); that is a stuck instance.

sudo mmcli -m any --messaging-list-sms

Code:
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/3 (receiving)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/2 (receiving)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/1 (receiving)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/0 (receiving)
So I had 4 kludged modem manager SMS instances.  I did the following for each instance from 0-3 below is an example for SMS/2
Code:
sudo mmcli -m any --messaging-delete-sms=2
successfully deleted SMS from modem
I can now receive SMS again after a few weeks of fail.

this is docuented int he wiki https://wiki.mobian-project.org/doku.php?id=troubleshooting&s[]=sms#unable-to-receive-sms-messages


If you liked this fix I would ask that you take a look at another problem/feature I am trying to solve; adding Bluetooth Network Access Point, it is nearly working but there seems to be a problem in the network bridging.

This will add the feature of automatic Bluetooth PAN access point for your tablet, computer, or other personal device to share internet protected by Bluetooth pairing protocol, just as fast but it saves major battery over WiFi.
