3G+ USB

[Patrick Dupre]

Hello,

Maybe you can help.

I have a sub modem 3G connected on my PC and I am trying to use it
to send SMS (I basically used for my internet connections).
from dmesg I get:

32569.724523] scsi5 : usb-storage 1-3:1.0

cat /dev/ttyUSB3
gives:
AT+CIND?
+CIND: 5,1,1,1,0,0,1,0

OK
AT+SSND?
+SSND: UMTS

OK

+CREG: 1, 4EAD, E02FF

+CGREG: 1, 4EAD, E02FF

+CREG: 1, 4EAD, EB3E9

+CGREG: 1, 4EAD, EB3E9

+CREG: 2

+CGREG: 2

+CREG: 2

+CGREG: 2

+CREG: 1, 4EAD, E02FF

+CGREG: 1, 4EAD, E02FF



which does not to be exactly what is expected according to the 
information that I
found:
However:
chat TIMEOUT 1 "" "AT+CMGF=1" "OK" > /dev/ttyUSB3

gives:
AT+CMGF=1
OK

but
chat TIMEOUT 1 "" "AT+CMGS=\"07515548xx\"" "OK" > /dev/ttyUSB3
(I put the right number)

gives me:
AT+CMGS="07515548xx"
ERROR


Could you help?

I have tried gnome-phone-manager,  it may work but only as root. How 
should I
change the access on /dev/ttyUSB3 ?

I also tried wammu, I got "Failed to connect to the phone".

Thank.
