Search the list for identical issues, they are common
the smsc uses UCS2 anyway
use iconv to convert from your german encofing to UCS2
example of perl implementation of Bulgarian Cyrilic cp1251
before xml post to be injected
if ($data->{cyr} == 1) {
$encoding="ucs-2be";
$converter = Text::Iconv->new("cp1251", $encoding);
$data->{sms}= $converter->convert($data->{sms});
$data->{sms}= hex_encode($data->{sms}, '%');
$coding=2;
$alt_dcs=-1;
}
php is much convenient
