    SMS encoding

     Hi,

     I'm sending an sms to a sms gateway, sms looks like SMS TRIP 12345

    But it seems that the service cannot handle the encoding? Is it send as UTF-8, can the encoding be set?

     Kind regards

    The encoding is set as Optimal when the native SmsSendMessage API is called. This means it will send as regular GSM 7-bit encoding wherever possible and Unicode UCS2 only where the message contains characters which would be lost using GSM encoding.

     Hi,

     The sms gateway received the SMS in HEX format. Is that the GSM 7-bit encoding?
