SMS and EMS
Sending messages might look a bit complicated on first attempt to use.
But be patient, the command line has been written in order to allow
almost every usage. See EXAMPLE section for some hints on usage.
There is also an option to use gammu-smsd(1) when you want to send or
receive more messages and process them automatically.
Common parameters for sendsms and savesms
-smscset number - SMSC will be taken from set number. Default
set: 1
-smscnumber number - SMSC number
-reply - reply SMSC is set
-maxnum number - Limit maximal number of messages which will be
created. If there are more messages, Gammu will terminate with
failure.
-folder number - save to specified folder.
Folders are numerated from 1.
The most often folder 1 = "Inbox", 2 = "Outbox",etc. Use
getsmsfolders to get folder list.
-unread - makes message unread. In some phones (like 6210) you
won’t see unread sms envelope after saving such sms. In some
phones with internal SMS memory (like 6210) after using it with
folder 1 SIM SMS memory will be used
-read - makes message read. In some phones with internal SMS
memory (like 6210) after using it with folder 1 SIM SMS memory
will be used
-unsent - makes message unsent
-sent - makes message sent
-sender number - set sender number
-smsname name - set message name
-sender number - set sender number (default: "Gammu")
-report - request delivery report for message
-validity HOUR|6HOURS|DAY|3DAYS|WEEK|MAX - sets how long will be
the message valid (SMSC will the discard the message after this
time if it could not deliver it).
-save - will also save message which is being sent
Introduction to SMS formats
Gammu has support for many SMS formats like:
* Nokia Smart Messaging (used for monochromatic picture images,
downloadable profiles, monochromatic operator logos,
monochromatic caller logos and monophonic ringtones)
* Linked SMS (both with 8 and 16-bit identification numbers in
headers)
* EMS (this is SMS format used for saving monochromatic images,
monophonic ringtones, animations, text formatting and others)
* MMS notifications
* Alcatel logo messages
You need to ensure that the target phone supports message type
you want to send. Otherwise the phone will not be able to
display it or will even crash, because firmware of phone did not
expect this possibility.
Encoding chars in SMS text
Text in SMS can be coded using two ways:
* with GSM Default Alphabet - in single SMS you can have
maximally 160 chars (Gammu doesn’t support compressing such
texts according to GSM standards, but it isn’t big limit,
because there are no phones supporting them), but they’re from
limited set:
* all Latin small and large
* all digits
* some Greek
* some other national
* some symbols like @! " # & / ( )% * + = - , .:; < >?
* few others
* with Unicode - in single SMS you can save at most 70 chars,
but these can be any chars including all national and special
ones. Please note, that some older phones might have problems
displaying such message.
Gammu tries to do the best to handle non ASCII characters in
your message. Everything is internally handled in Unicode (the
input is converted depending on your locales configuration) and
in case message uses Unicode the text will be given as such to
the message.
Should the message be sent in GSM Default Alphabet, Gammu will
try to convert all characters to keep message readable. Gammu
does support multi byte encoding for some characters in GSM
Default Alphabet (it is needed for ^ { } \ [ ] ~ |). The
characters which are not present in GSM Default Alphabet are
transliterated to closest ASCII equivalent (accents are
removed). Remaining not known characters are replaced by
question mark.
addsms folder file [-yes]
Adds SMSes from file (format like backupsms uses) to selected
folder in phone.
addsmsfolder name
backupsms file [-yes|-all]
Stores all SMSes from phone to file.
Use -yes for answering yes to all questions (backup all messages
and delete them from phone), or -all to just backup all folders
while keeping messages in phone.
deleteallsms folder
Delete all SMS from specified SMS folder.
deletesms folder start [stop]
Delete SMS from phone. See description for getsms for info about
sms folders naming convention.
Locations are numerated from 1.
displaysms ... (options like in sendsms)
Displays PDU data of encoded SMS messages. It accepts same
parameters and behaves same like sendsms.
getallsms -pbk
Get all SMS from phone. In some phones you will have also SMS
templates and info about locations used to save Picture Images.
With each sms you will see location. If you want to get such sms
from phone alone, use gammu getsms 0 location
geteachsms -pbk
Similiary to getallsms. Difference is, that links all
concatenated sms
getsms folder start [stop]
Get SMS.
Locations are numerated from 1.
Folder 0 means that sms is being read from "flat" memory (all
sms from all folders have unique numbers). It’s sometimes
emulated by Gammu. You can use it with all phones.
Other folders like 1, 2, etc. match folders in phone such as
Inbox, Outbox, etc. and each sms has unique number in his
folder. Name of folders can depend on your phone (the most often
1="Inbox", 2="Outbox", etc.). This method is not supported by
all phones (for example, not supported by Nokia 3310, 5110,
6110). If work with your phone, use getsmsfolders to get folders
list.
getsmsc [start [stop]]
Get SMSC settings from SIM card.
Locations are numerated from 1.
getsmsfolders
Get names for SMS folders in phone
nokiagett9
This option should display T9 dictionary content from DCT4
phones.
restoresms file [-yes]
Restores SMSes from file (format like backupsms uses) to
selected folder in phone. Please note that this overwrites
existing messages in phone (if it supports it).
savesms ANIMATION frames file1 file2... [-folder id] [-unread] [-read]
[-unsent] [-sent] [-sender number] [-smsname name] [-smscset number]
[-smscnumber number] [-reply] [-maxsms num]

-flash - Class 0 SMS (should be displayed after receiving on
recipients’ phone display after receiving without entering
Inbox)
-len len - specify, how many chars will be read. When use this
option and text will be longer than 1 SMS, will be split into
more linked SMS
-autolen len - specify, how many chars will be read. When use
this option and text will be longer than 1 SMS, will be split
into more linked SMS.Coding type (SMS default alphabet/Unicode)
is set according to input text

-enableemail | -disableemail - sms will set such indicators.
Text will be cut to 1 sms.
-voidsms - many phones after receiving it won’t display
anything, only beep, vibrate or turn on light. Text will be cut
to 1 sms.
-unicode - SMS will be saved in Unicode format
-inputunicode - input text is in Unicode.
-text - get text from command line instead of stdin.
-textutf8 - get text in UTF-8 from command line instead of
stdin.
-16bit - Gammu uses SMS headers with 16-bit numbers for saving
linking info in SMS (it means less chars available for user in
each SMS)
TIP: You can create Unicode file using WordPad in Windows
(during saving select "Unicode Text Document" format). In Unix
can use for example YUdit.
-replacemessages ID - ID can be 1..7. When you will use option
and send more single SMS to one recipient with the same ID, each
another SMS will replace each previous with the same ID
-replacefile file - when you want, you can make file in such
format: src_unicode_char1, dest_unicode_char1,
src_unicode_char2, dest_unicode_char2 (everything in one line).
After reading text for SMS from stdin there will be made
translation and each src char will be converted to dest char. In
docs there is example file (replace.txt), which will change all
"a" chars to "1"
TIP: when use ~ char in sms text and -unicode option (Unicode
coding required), text of sms after ~ char will blink in some
phones (like N33xx)
Example: echo some_text | gammu savesms TEXT

Adds data written in file created using backup option. All
things backup’ed by backup can be restored (when made backup to
Gammu text file).
Please note that this adds all content of backup file to phone
and does not care about current data in the phone (no duplicates
are detected).
Use -yes parameter to answer yes to all questions (you want to
automatically restore all data).
Use -memory parameter to force usage of defined memory type for
storing entries regardless what backu format says.
backup file [-yes]
Backup your phone to file. It’s possible to backup (depends on
phone and backup format):
* phonebook from SIM and phone memory
* calendar notes
* SMSC settings
* operator logo
* startup (static) logo or startup text
* WAP bookmarks
* WAP settings
* caller logos and groups
* user ringtones
There are various backup formats supported and the backup format
is guessed based on file extension:
* .lmb - Nokia backup, supports contacts, caller logos and

restore file [-yes]
Restore settings written in file created using backup option.
Please note that restoring deletes all current content in phone.
If you want only to add entries to phone, use addnew.
In some phones restoring calendar notes will not show error, but
won’t be done, when phone doesn’t have set clock inside.
savefile VCARD10|VCARD21 target.vcf file SM|ME location
Allows to convert between various backup formats which gammu
supports for phonebook events. The file type is guessed (for
input file guess is based on extension and file content, for
output solely on extension).
For example if you want to convert single entry from gammu
native backup to vCard, you need following command:
gammu savefile CALENDAR output.vcf myPhonebook.backup ME 42
savesms VCARD10|VCARD21 file SM|ME location [-nokia] [-folder id]
[-unread] [-read] [-unsent] [-sent] [-sender number] [-smsname name]
[-smscset number] [-smscnumber number] [-reply] [-maxsms num]
Read phonebook entry from file created by backup option and
saves in VCARD 1.0 (only name and default number) or VCARD 2.1
(all entry details with all numbers, text and name) format as
SMS. The location identifies position of contact item to be read
in backup file (usually 1, but can be useful in case the backup
contains more items).
For description of shared parameters see Common parameters for
sendsms and savesms.
searchmemory text
Scans all memory entries for given text. It performs case
insensitive substring lookup. You can interrupt searching by
pressing Ctrl+C.

(current filesystem 2 doesn’t need this)
-readonly, -protected, -system, -hidden - you can set readonly,
protected (file can’t be for example forwarded from phone menu),
system and hidden (file is hidden from phone menu) file
attributes
-newtime - after using it date/time of file modification will be
set to moment of uploading
addfolder parentfolderID name

(first parameter in line)
-flat
Please note, that in some phones (like N6230) content of some
folders (with more files) can be cut (only part of files will be
displayed) for example on infrared connection. This is not Gammu
issue, but phone firmware problem.
getfilesystemstatus
Display info filesystem status - number of bytes available, used
or used by some specific content.
getfolderlisting folderID
Display files and folders available in folder with given folder
ID. You can get ID’s using getfilesystem -flatall.
Please note, that in some phones (like N6230) content of some
folders (with more files) can be cut (only part of files will be
displayed) for example on infrared connection. This is not Gammu

nokiaaddfile APPLICATION|GAME file [-readonly] [-overwrite]
[-overwriteall]
Install the *.jar/*.jad file pair of a midlet in the application
or game menu of the phone. You need to specify filename without
the jar/jad suffix, both will be added automatically.
The option -overwrite deletes the application’s .jad and .jar
files bevor installing, but doesn’t delete the application data.
Option -overwriteall will also delete all data. Both these
options work only for Application or Game upload.
Example: gammu nokiaaddfile Application Alien will read
Alien.JAD and Alien.JAR and add to Applications
Example: gammu nokiaaddfile Tones file.mid will read file.mid
and add to Tones folder
You can use jadmaker(1) to generate a .jad file from a .jar
file.

output solely on extension).
For example if you want to convert single entry from gammu
native backup to vCard, you need following command:
gammu savefile CALENDAR output.vcf myPhonebook.backup ME 42
Nokia specific
nokiaaddfile APPLICATION|GAME file [-readonly] [-overwrite]
[-overwriteall]
Install the *.jar/*.jad file pair of a midlet in the application
or game menu of the phone. You need to specify filename without
the jar/jad suffix, both will be added automatically.
The option -overwrite deletes the application’s .jad and .jar
files bevor installing, but doesn’t delete the application data.
Option -overwriteall will also delete all data. Both these
options work only for Application or Game upload.
Example: gammu nokiaaddfile Application Alien will read
Alien.JAD and Alien.JAR and add to Applications
Example: gammu nokiaaddfile Tones file.mid will read file.mid
and add to Tones folder
You can use jadmaker(1) to generate a .jad file from a .jar
file.

gammu getfilesystem
Will get list of all files (including names of files with
playlists)
gammu deletefiles a:\predefplaylist\filename.m3u
Will delete playlist filename.m3u
Format of m3u playlist is easy (standard mp3 playlist):
First line is #EXTM3U, next lines contain names of files
(b:\file1.mp3, b:\folder1\file2.mp3, etc.). File needs t have
’\r\n’ terminated lines. So just run unix2dos on the resulting
file before uploading it your your phone.

Sending messages
Save text message up to standard 160 chars:
echo "All your base are belong to us" | gammu savesms TEXT
or
gammu savesms TEXT -text "All your base are belong to us"
Save long text message:
echo "All your base are belong to us" | gammu savesms TEXT -len 400
or
gammu savesms TEXT -len 400 -text "All your base are belong to us"
or
gammu savesms EMS -text "All your base are belong to us"
Save some funky message with predefined sound and animation from 2
bitmaps:
gammu savesms EMS -text "Greetings" -defsound 1 -text "from Gammu"
-tone10 axelf.txt -animation 2 file1.bmp file2.bmp
Save protected message with ringtone:
gammu savesms EMS -protected 2 -variablebitmaplong ala.bmp
-toneSElong axelf.txt -toneSE ring.txt
Backups
If you will backup settings to Gammu text file, it will be possible to
edit it. It’s easy: many things in this file will be written double -
once in Unicode, once in ASCII. When you will remove Unicode version
Gammu will use ASCII on restore (and you can easy edit ASCII text) and
will convert it according to your OS locale. When will be available
Unicode version of text, it will be used instead of ASCII (useful with
Unicode phones - it isn’t important, what locale is set in computer and
no conversion Unicode -> ASCII and ASCII -> Unicode is done).
You can use any editor with regular expressions function to edit backup
text file. Examples of such editors can be vim <http://www.vim.org/> or
TextPad <http://www.textpad.com/> which both do support regular
expressions.

it on command line using -d textall -f /tmp/gammu.log):
[gammu]
YOUR CONNECTION SETTINGS
logfile = /tmp/gammu.log
logformat = textall
With this settings, Gammu generates /tmp/gammu.log on each connection
to phone and stores dump of communication there. You can also find some
hints for improving support for your phone in this log.
