Hi guys, Let me add my 2 cents worth to this topic. Ringtone tools is good tool to convert ringtone to older formats. I've used it for +4 years for this job. The SKCL of Nokia was primary devised for CDMA based networks so the mobile phones currently sold in your part of the world may not know it (as it happened to me). But you may use a large part of the converted result for delivering mono ringtones to Nokia.
You can use also Ringtone tools to generate EMS content. Just call Ringtone tools without parameters to see all possible options. For ems use -outtype ems or -outtype emelody. Mind the fact that modern phones can use at least the general accepted midi format, which renders the mono ringtone useless. As this has nothing to do with Kannel itself, it becomes an off-topic and I do appologise to the list. One last bit of advice: (Murphy quote). When nothing else works and you don't know what to do next and you are completely lost, READ DOCUMENTATION. In this case, point your browser to www.forum.nokia.com and respectively www.ericsson.com/developerworld and do a little research by yourself. You'll find there descriptions of these formats. Hope it helps.

EMS? EMS is a "container" to send other formats. For example, E/IMY, and E/IMELODY, which are text formats. EMS was widely supported by Motorola, Siemens, Alcatel and other brands (Nokia had his SmartMessaging protocol so most Nokias doesn't support it). The only main difference is that older/crippled models didn't support more than 128 bytes of data, nor multipart messages (EMS does support sending the data in more than one message with proper headers added). For old Nokias, you may use SCKL, which is a text-based format, capable of multipart as well, or "nokia" (SmartMessaging).p You'll have to experiment a little to get EMS and SCKL working, but Kannel can deliver it with no problems.

I think that the conversione can be done also offline, i mean , i can get the imy file ( or the ott ) pass it to the script and obtain the the file converted to send via kannel, am i right? this solutioin could be used to convert one time every file and send it many times withoud trascoding it on the fly, am not sure if we need to chenge the trascoding accoirding to teh mobile handset. ________________________________ Da: Mike Nwaogu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> A: [email protected] Inviato: Mercoledì 12 novembre 2008, 15:06:37 Oggetto: Re: imy format to send via SMS Hi Mauro, Kannel doesn't do any conversions. You can send imy files as EMS, you'll need to do some conversions though. You'll need a script that can convert those imy content to a HEX string and send it with the udh of the message caculated and setup.
