Yes. That was why I said Rajeev should do the grep's and tails in the
logs to be sure the OS detected the sony before setting up the other params.

     I havent used a Sony Ericsson but rather a Nokia.
     However you can setup the modem group and smsc group as shown in
the user guide.
     To be sure the phone can be used, do this:
     Connect the phone to the computer and as root do this
     r...@your-computer#dmesg|grep -i "Sony"
     r...@your-computer#tail -n30 /var/log/messages|grep -i "Sony"
     You must see a link to the device file /dev/ttyACM0 or somethingsimilar 
which shows connection to your phone.
     Configure kannel accordingly to use the device file that points
to your phone. Read the user manual on configuring group=modems
group=smsc for using phones as virtual smsc.

Isaac

Hi,

If the mobile is not detected by the OS, you won't need an init string. Simply 
put the mobile is not a modem.

Does the mobile feature a USB or serial port?

       Hi!

       I was wondering is it possible to use a Sony Ericsson W 580i phone as a
       modem for sending sms?
