Linphone does not show incoming SMS messages from SIP sources

[DesiOtaku]

I am currently using Voip.ms for sending and receiving SMS messages. Sending out an SMS works fine. However, when an SMS message is sent to my account, voip.ms does get it, and it does sent it over to Linphone, but Linphone does not display it.

I can confirm that linphone does get the message from the log. Here is the slightly censored log portion:

I did try to set my "account" to be the voip.ms account rather than the core ship account.

Forgot to also add in this:

Sigh... same problem on mine. Can anyone interpret this please?

[MrRoy]

I have the same problem, also on voip.ms. I can send an SMS, but cannot receive any through Linphone

[morciej]

See issue 765. Not much in the way of hope.

[MrRoy]

@morciej thanks for letting me know. I subscribed to that other issue, let us know what response you get (if any) from voip.ms.

[morciej]

They asked me to capture some packets and show them. I guess I will have to dust off Wireshark.

There is a Debian bug about this with some useful information.

I am having exactly the same issue. Voip.ms sms will send from Linphone but not arrive in the message area. If I watch the logfile I can see the messages coming in, but they are not showing up

[xtronics]

sip text appear in a box in the newest version (5.0.0-beta.64) - yet still not showing up in the main message window.

Well, I guess that is progress. So far I have not had much luck with SMS over SIP. Linphone has come the closest as it sends every time, and receives, but does not show the incoming message.

How did you guys get linphone to send SMS messages?! I have the opposite problem. I can receive messages all day long, (although finding them is another issue), But I cannot reply to any of them, or send an an outbound SMS message via the Linphone client. Voip.ms tech support does not offer much in the way of client configuration advice.

[sierracircle]

I still have not had any luck. I can occassionally recieve texts, but not send.

I recently setup a test account with Telnyx to see if I have any better luck with them on the back end. Will update this thread with any progress.

Weird thing that I noticed happened when receiving texts. I get the notification, click on it, which opens the message in the main desktop app window conversation view. While I'm in the process of reading the text...POOF! It disappears.

Is there any progress?

Is there any progress?

I haven't bothered with it for several months, eventually ended up switching to Zoiper5 Pro for the time being.

Would still like to see Linphone support SIP send/receive text on DIDs supporting SMS with providers like voip.ms and telnyx.
