gnokii is a multiple systems tool suite and (eventually) modem/fax driver for the mobile phones.

gnokii at the beginning was designed to support Nokia phones. At the moment it supports most of the Nokia mobiles including 6100 series (models like 6110 or 5110), 7110 series (models like 7110 or 6210) and 6510 series (models like 6310 or 6510). The most recent models as Nokia 7650 are not yet fully supported but we're working on it. At the moment it also supports also the phones that are capable to understand AT commands. Tested AT phones are: Nokia 7110/6210/6250/6310(i)/6510/8210/9210/7650/3650, Siemens S25/SL45i/C55/M55/S55, Ericsson T39, SonyEricsson T68i, Bosch 908/909 and Motorola Timeport P7389i and C350.

--getsms memory_type start [end] [-f file] [-F file] [-d]

gets SMS messages from specified memory type starting at entry start and ending at end. For the memory types you usually use SM for the SIM card and ME for the phone memory. The exception are the phones supported by nk7110 (Nokia 7110/6210/6250) and nk6510 (Nokia 6310/6510/8310) drivers. For these you should use IN for the Inbox, OU for the Outbox, AR for the Archive, TE for the Templates and F1, F2, ... for your own folders. If end is not specified only one location - start is read. If -f file is used entries are saved in file. If the file already exists, user is prompted whether to overwrite the file. -F option forces gnokii to overwrite the file without asking. If none of these switches is used entries are dumped to stdout. If -d switch is used, a message is deleted after reading.

--deletesms memory_type start [end]

deletes SMS messages from specified memory type starting at entry start and ending at end. If end is not specified only one location - start is deleted.

--sendsms destination [--smsc message_center_number | --smscno message_center_index] [-r] [-C n] [-v n] [--long n] [-i]

sends an SMS message to destination via message_center_number or SMSC number taken from phone memory from address message_center_index. If this argument is omitted SMSC number is taken from phone memory from location 1. Message text is taken from STDIN. Meaning of other optional parameters:

-r - request for delivery report

-C n - Class Message n, where n can be 0..3

-v n - validity in minutes

--long n - send no more then n characters, default is 160

-i - send iMelody within SMS

Sample usage:

echo "This is a test message" | gnokii --sendsms +48501123456 -r

--savesms [--sender from] [--smsc message_center_number | --smscno message_center_index] [--folder folder_id] [--location number] [--sent | --read] [--deliver] [--datetime YYMMDDHHMMSS]

saves SMS messages to phone. Messages are read from STDIN. You can specify the following optional arguments:

--sender - set the sender number (only --deliver)

--smsc message_center_number - set the SMSC number (only --deliver)

--smscno message_center_index - SMSC number taken from phone memory from address message_center_index (only --deliver)

--folder folder_id - folder ID where to save the SMS to (only valid for newer phones, i.e. 6210/6510 series). For legal values see --getsms.

--location number - save the message to location number

--sent | --read - mark the message saved/read depending on --deliver

--deliver - set the message type to SMS_Deliver

--datetime YYMMDDHHMMSS - sets datetime of delivery, i.e. 031123185713 would set message delivery time to 23rd November 2003, 6:57:13 PM

--getsmsc [start_number [end_number]] [-r|--raw]

--sendringtone destination rtttlfile

send the rtttlfile to destination as ringtone.

--setringtone rtttlfile

set the rtttlfile as ringtone (on 6110).

--getphonebook memory_type start_number [end_number|end] [-r|--raw]

reads specified memory location from phone. If end_number is not specified only one location - start is read. If instead of end_number the text end is specified then gnokii will read from start_number until it encounters a non-existant location. Valid memory types are: ME, SM, FD, ON, EN, DC, RC, MC, LD:

ME Internal memory of the mobile equipment

SM SIM card memory

FD Fixed dial numbers

ON Own numbers

EN Emergency numbers

DC Dialled numbers

RC Received calls

MC Missed calls

LD Last dialed numbers

You can use also -r or --raw switch to get the raw output. You can use it then with --writephonebook. Normally you got verbose output.

--writephonebook [-o|--overwrite] [-f|--find-free]

reads data from stdin and writes to phonebook. When -i option is used, refuses to overwrite existing entries. Uses the same format as provided by the output of the getphonebook command. See below for details.

When the -o or --overwrite option is used, existing entries at a given location are overwritten.

When the -f or --find-free option is given, gnokii tries to find a free location. In this case, you can omit the location field in the input data.

The phonebook format is very simple. Each line represents one entry. Fields are separated by semicolons. Semicolons aren't allowed inside a field. The fields have to be in this order (the subentries are optional, ie. you can repeat all subentry field multiple times, but they have to be alltogether in the given order):

name

number

memory_type

entry_location

caller_group_number

subentry_type

subentry_number_type

subentry_id

subentry_text

Possible values of caller_group_number and the corresponding caller groups are (these are defaults, you are able to change these manually in your phone):

0 Family

1 VIP

2 Friends

3 Colleagues

4 Other

5 No group

Possible subentry types are described in the gnokii/common.h file:

7 subentry is the name

8 subentry is the email address

9 subentry is the postal address (snail mail)

10 subentry is the note (text field)

11 subentry is the number

12 subentry is the ringtone

19 subentry is the date

26 subentry is the pointer

27 subentry is the logo

28 subentry is the logo switch

30 subentry is the group

44 subentry is the URL

Possible subentry number types are described in the gnokii/common.h file:

2 number is the home phone number

3 number is the mobile phone number

4 number is the fax number

6 number is the work phone number

10 number is the general number

For the subentry types that don't care about number type (as text files) this should be set to 0.

We write quality software here ;) but see KNOWN_BUGS just in case. If you'd like to send us the bugreport please read the README and Bugs files.
