=== SMS ===
==== The phone does not receive SMS ====
Sometimes incoming SMS messages are not being received, but outgoing ones, phone calls and data are working fine. One potential cause could be SMS messages that linger in the modem's queue (10 of them). This queue appears to be persistent across reboots and also re-imaging the OS.
Note that on Mobian the ModemManager does all of the communications with the 3G modem including phone calls, cellular data, GPS and SMS. This may not be the case with other PinePhone OSes.
You can access the ModemManager using the mmcli command.
$ sudo mmcli -m 0 --messaging-list-sms
Found 10 SMS messages:
/org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/0 (received)
...
Delete all of the messages like this:
$ sudo mmcli -m 0 --messaging-delete-sms=1  # Repeat with 1 through 10 to delete all of the messages
Note that the "-m 0" refers to modem 0 (the only one usually in a pinephone). For more help on the messaging related actions available in mmcli you can check the help with "mmcli --help-messaging." This article is also helpful in learning: https://electronproton.com/mmcli-command-examples/
