Concatenated SMS problem when using UCS2 coding about python-gsmmodem HOT 8 OPEN

1. How do you switch into UCS2 encoding?
2. It is always worth checking if you are using the correct library (with -new suffix) and the latest release (0.12).

from python-gsmmodem.

1. Your library switches it automatically when fails to encode text using GSM-7 coding. File pdu.py, lines 299-307:

    # Encode message text and set data coding scheme based on text contents
    try:
        encodedTextLength = len(encodeGsm7(text))
    except ValueError:
        # Cannot encode text using GSM-7; use UCS2 instead
        encodedTextLength = len(text)
        alphabet = 0x08 # UCS2
    else:
        alphabet = 0x00 # GSM-7

2. Of course, library version is correct (v0.12 w/ -new suffix)

Sorry. I've misclicked.

Could you dump produced PDUs?

After line 919 of modem.py add:

self.log.error("Debug PDUs.---\nMessage: {0}\n---\n---PDU: ---\n".format(text))
for p in pdus:
    self.log.error(str(codecs.encode(p.data, 'hex_codec')).upper())
self.log.error("---")

Sorry, at this time I don't have that hardware. When I will be able to do this, I'll let you know.

@TishSerg Any update on this? :-)

Oops. I've completely forgotten about it.
Now, I'm not working with hardware anymore, so cannot reproduce this :(
Sorry.

Anyone up and running any modem with this library? Could you try to send the text/code from the first post (above) in SMS?

@TishSerg it could be a generic issue, let's see. Thanks for the prompt reply. :-)
