[solved] Is playsms support read Japanese/other languages message?

Hello everyone,

I have just set up a new SMS Gateway Kannel with PlaySMS and successfully send/receive English message on Playsms.

But i have problem when send Japanese sms from my phone to modem and playsms cannot display that Japanese message (it display strange characters)

So i wonder if playsms support read Japanese/other languages message? (like a phone support read other languages)

Thank you for reading !

Hi, any one there?

Japanese is like any other unicode charset, please browse this forum for issues regarding unicodes

Hi Anton,

Thank you for replying me. But i can’t find any case like me in forum.

Currently i can send japanese character from playsms to phone and can read on the phone. But when i send japanese character from phone, playsms convert them to unreadable character (content: l0Lo0K0c0_0g0Y @admin). Can’t understand why?

Can you have any idea about that? I use kannel as SMS gateway.

Here is the log on playsms:

Check your kannel.conf, do you have mo-recode = true in your smsbox block ?

If not then add it then restart kannel

Hi akay,

Also, i dont install any japanese packets. i just send japanese characters from my phone to playsms

kannel.conf_kiemsino1 (1.3 KB)

Thank you for your reply
However I did solved that issue…

M now stuck with multilingual sms…
Did you try

I try with japanese and vietnamese ok but have problem when use “email to sms” function. follow the format of this function, the subject contain the content of sms. But when i try to use japanese as content, Playsms read the subject <admin 1234 新> to:

"subject:[=?UTF-8?B?W1NQQU1CP10gIA==?= admin 1234 =?UTF-8?Q?=E6=96=B0=E8=A6=8F=20?=[Ticket#2016032509000018]] body:[09xxx=]

Then it notice:

  • 2016-03-25 09:02:00 PID56f49c181c733 - L3 mailsms_hook_playsmsd_once # invalid username sender_username:[=?UTF-8?B?W1NQQU1CP10gIA==?=]

And the sms cannot be created because “[=?UTF-8?B?W1NQQU1CP10gIA==?=” have been add before “admin 1234” so the format is not passed.

@ Anton Anton Raharja: Do you have solution for that ?
