Gnokii with Nokia 5130c-2 (XpressMusic) – USB

Gnokii works awesomely with the Nokia 5130c-2 (XpressMusic) model using the USB for communication.

/etc/gnokiirc configuration for getting it to work (took me some time to figure):


[global]
port = /dev/ttyACM0
model = 6510
initlength = default
connection = dku2libusb
use_locking = yes
serial_baudrate = 19200
smsc_timeout = 10
[xgnokii]


allow_breakage = 0
[gnokiid]
bindir = /usr/sbin/
[connect_script]
TELEPHONE = 09876543210
[disconnect_script]
[logging]
debug = off
rlpdebug = off

xdebug = off

A sample run

IMEI : 012345678901234

Send sms

anacoluthon:~# /usr/games/fortune | gnokii --sendsms +919936748748
GNOKII Version 0.6.26
Send succeeded!

Some gotchas:
Works as root only at the moment. Can’t get or set ringtones . SMS reader doesn’t work with xgnokii. The connecting USB cable is too short :-(

Next on the agenda, testing opensync with gnokii.
