Thanks for the picture Bill! So my original guess was that these were binary voicemail indications that weren't being consumed properly by the core ofono code. Per my comment #7, I'd been able to reproduce the bug by hard-coding delayed timer which fired internal notifications with the data Pat had added in comment #2.
Well, when I tried this again today built on top of our latest branch we're trying to merge, I didn't see the incoming messages, nor did the message indicator turn blue. Weird... When I enabled debug for the core ofono sms code ( -d src/sms.c ), I noticed the following output: ofonod[3497]: src/sms.c:sms_dispatch() ofonod[3497]: src/sms.c:sms_dispatch() dst 2948 src 9200 ofonod[3497]: src/sms.c:sms_dispatch() dst 2948 src 9200 So next I checked the push-notification plugin to see if that's where these messages were being routed, and lo and behold, the ports 2948 and 9200 are the WAP_PUSH ports, so that's where these messages are now being routed. WAP PUSH is also used by MMS, which registers to see all of these messages too. I have to run this past Sergio, but I imagine if nuntium attempted to decode these messages as MMS messages, it would fail. The final clue was Bill's photo. If you look at the URL, the hostname is vmm.mobile.att.net. I'm pretty sure "vmm" stands for "visual voice mail". That said, as I don't have a picture of Pat's message, I may need to be a little more digging to confirm that his messages were also visual voice mail. They may have just been MMS messages. Pat, if so, hope nobody sent you anything we all shouldn't see! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1255647 Title: Control messages appearing in SMS messages To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ofono/+bug/1255647/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
