onNewMessage and onNewMessageIndicator never fired

[slachtar]

Hello, first I'd like to thank your for this module. I'm testing it under windows with a Huawei gsm modem, I can send messages with sendSMS function, but I was enable to receive messages and the onNewMessage and onNewMessageIndicator are never fired.

Notice: getSimInbox() function shows the list of messages including the one I sent. Any suggestion please?

Thank you,

Here's my code:

let serialportgsm = require('serialport-gsm');

var firstPort;

let modem = serialportgsm.Modem();

let options = {
    baudRate: 115200,
    dataBits: 8,
    parity: 'none',
    stopBits: 1,
    flowControl: false,
    xon: false,
    rtscts: false,
    xoff: false,
    xany: false,
    buffersize: 0
}

serialportgsm.list((err, result) => {
    firstPort = result[0].comName;
    console.log("Port to be used: ", firstPort);

    modem.open(firstPort, options, function(err){
        if (err) {
            console.log("Error opening port:", err);
        }
    });
})

modem.on('open', data => {
    console.log("Port opened.");
    modem.initializeModem( res => {
        console.log("Modem initialized.\n");

        modem.getSimInbox(function(res){
                console.log("inbox:", res);
        });
    })
})

modem.on('close', result => {
    console.log("Port closed");
})

modem.on('error', err => {  
    console.log("Error", err);
})

modem.on('onSendingMessage', result => { 
    console.log("Sending progress:", result); 
})

modem.on('onNewMessageIndicator', result => { 
    console.log("new msg indicator:", result);
})

modem.on('onNewMessage', messageDetails => {
    console.log("new msg: ", messageDetails);
})

Hello @slachtar !

Thanks for trying out serialport-gsm!

I tried your code and I got an error as a result in calling getSimInbox(). Previously I removed setModemMode as I defaulted it to PDU mode on open. It seems it works/does not work on some gsm.

Can you please try this code and check if it works?

modem.on('open', data => {
  console.log("Port opened.");
  modem.initializeModem(res => {
    console.log("Modem initialized.\n");
  })
  modem.setModemMode(res => {
    console.log(res)
    modem.getSimInbox(function(res) {
      console.log("inbox:", res);
    });
  }, 'PDU')
})

@slachtar is onNewMessage never fired at any message received? or only on messages received with 'unsupported sender typeornull` sender? I'm having trouble figuring out why the event is never fired on your end.

[slachtar]

@zabsalahid it's never fired even with messages with unsupported sender type or null sender. If you want I can give you a teamviewer access to check the problem directly.

BTW, same modem is working great with this module: https://github.com/emilsedgh/modem

Thank you

[zabsalahid]

@slachtar sure! I'd like to check it directly. you can reach me at zabsalahid@gmail.com

@slachtar https://github.com/emilsedgh/modem last commit was Apr 13, 2017 😢

[slachtar]

:) I think it's alive because it's based on serialPort which is very active and also AT commands didn't changed since decades.
