<talntid> whitequark, DocScrutinizer: ping :)
urandom__ has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
<whitequark> talntid: here
<whitequark> I'll be away soon, but you can always reach me at whitequark@whitequark.org
<whitequark> DocScrutinizer's email address isn't hard to find, too. you can cc him if you want, but I'm not sure how far did he study these modules
<talntid> =]
<talntid> whitequark, can I ask you a few questions? Just basically... can those modules do MMS messages?
<talntid> seems they are supposed to, but... have yet to find someone who says for sure
<whitequark> er
<whitequark> that question is best answered by its documentation ;)
<whitequark> I don't keep all of it in memory
<talntid> Its documentation is vague, at best.
<talntid> it has the words "MMS" in the title, but... doesn't actually *say* anything about it.. unless I am blind.
<whitequark> hmm
<whitequark> what variant do you have?
<whitequark> sim900, sim900b, *?
<talntid> I don't. I am determining which one to buy
<whitequark> btw, do you know how MMS works?
<whitequark> AFAIK it uses TCP/IP underneath
<whitequark> so the module itself should only support GPRS directly (at least)
<talntid> yes, MMS uses TCP/IP underneath, and sends a specially formed SMS via AT command
<whitequark> ok, you answered your question yourself
<talntid> but the AT command, evidently, has to support sending the "MMS" parts.
<talntid> the firmware has to support sending the extra parameters
<talntid> I am fairly certain that the SIM900 will do what I ask of it, but figured maybe you or the Doc could confirm. If not, I'm just going to but it and document it myself :)
<talntid> as you said though, there are multiple variants
jekhor has joined #qi-hardware
<talntid> seems like that might be the best bet
<whitequark> should work, why not
<talntid> because it's out of stock :(

<DocScrutinizer> [2012-06-28 20:37:24] <DocScrutinizer05> not me!
<DocScrutinizer> [2012-06-28 20:37:35] <DocScrutinizer05> I only know what whitequark told me
<DocScrutinizer> [
<DocScrutinizer> talntid: MMS is not handled by GSM module, it's an AP thing
<DocScrutinizer> or what whitequark said
<DocScrutinizer> talntid: on N900 fmms app doesn't use *any* special AT cmd for MMS
<DocScrutinizer> it just uses a second APN network channel
<DocScrutinizer> and I'm all but sure it could do 'normal' internet during sending / receiving a MMS via that special APN
<DocScrutinizer> at least that's how I understood that MMs stuff
<DocScrutinizer> if you want to know details, try to ping frals, author of fmms
<DocScrutinizer> this sugests I'm right about switching of AP connections:
<DocScrutinizer> As of release 0.6 there is now multiple "connection modes" available:
<DocScrutinizer> * Polite (Default behavior <0.6): Only switch to MMS connection if no connection is active, otherwise do nothing (pretty much)
<DocScrutinizer> * Rude: Force a disconnect of the active connection regardless of what it is, connect to MMS APN and then reconnect to the old one.
<DocScrutinizer> * Havoc: Try to bring up a connection to the MMS APN in parallell with whatever is active, this is what most other phones do. Note that to get this functionality on the N900 there are a few ugly hacks active which might break stuff, but it *should* work
<LunaVorax> Evening everyone!
