Debug receiving sms

[olesendan]

Hi.

My phone have stopped receiving sam's. From what I recall it stopped at the end of may.

I can make calls, and send sms's, but not receive sms.

I've tried to reinstall modemmanager and chatty.

I've never really debugged before, so would appreciate if someone could point me in a direction regarding how to debug.

It may well be your SMS receive queue has become jammed by some MMS. The way to see your queue is, in a terminal,

Code:

$ sudo mmcli -m any --messaging-list-sms
[sudo] password for csn:
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/113 (received)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/112 (received)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/111 (received)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/110 (received)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/109 (received)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/108 (received)

You then need to delete any that are NOT received (IIRC they show as receiving or something similar.) Unfortunately my notes on the delete command are obsolete - things have changed since I wrote it down and I can't find the original tip. (it was parameter --messaging-delete-sms=108 say but that no longer seems to work!) Hopefully someone smarter than me can work out the current mmcli syntax you need if you post your list output!

Hi Dukla2000.
