Hi,

I tried your example code on WM5 device (i-Mate JasJar) but method SmsSetBroadcastMsgRanges return 0x82000207 and I'can't find any on this code.

Do you have any suggestions

Hello shian,

Cell Broadcast messages are accessed with the same functions that are used for SMS text messages. Here is a link to a list of the SMS functions in Windows Mobile 5.0:

You'll find in sms.h that the lowest two bytes (0x0207) stand for SMS_E_MOBILEUNSUPPORTED.

I have the same on my Palm Treo 750, but I know to receive SMS or CellBroadcast is true. As suggested on http://teksoftco.com/forum/viewtopic.php p=784, we might need to call sth like RIL_SmsSetBroadcastMsgRanges afterwards.

Let's see..

Thanks Jason. This really help me a lot.
But now I has a problem in SmsSetBroadcastMsgRanges(). I has no idea how to set up smsrBroadcastRanges in SMS_BROADCAST_RANGES. Could you give me a sample code

Thanks again.

I had solve this problem. SMS_BROADCAST_RANGES.cbSize should be added with the size of SMS_RANGE array. This is my sample code:

int accitems = 10;

LPVOID p = VirtualAlloc(NULL, sizeof(SMS_BROADCAST_RANGES)+sizeof(SMS_RANGE)*accitems, MEM_COMMIT, PAGE_READWRITE);
ASSERT(p);

SMS_BROADCAST_RANGES *data = (SMS_BROADCAST_RANGES *)p;
memset(data, 0, sizeof(SMS_BROADCAST_RANGES)+sizeof(SMS_RANGE)*accitems );

/*** fill data to data->smsrBroadcastRanges[] ***/
data->smsrBroadcastRanges[0]..dwMinimum = 1;
data->smsrBroadcastRanges[0]..dwMaximum= 1;
/*** fill data to data->smsrBroadcastRanges[] ***/

data->cbSize = sizeof(SMS_BROADCAST_RANGES)+sizeof(SMS_RANGE)*accitems;
data->dwParams = SMS_PARAM_SBR_ACCEPTIDS|SMS_PARAM_SBR_BROADCASTMSGLANGS|SMS_PARAM_SBR_BROADCASTMSGIDS;
data->bAccept = TRUE;
data->dwBroadcastMsgLangs = SMS_DCSLANG_ENGLISH;
data->dwNumRanges = accitems;

hr = SmsSetBroadcastMsgRanges(data);
VirtualFree(p, 0, MEM_RELEASE);

I use VirtualAlloc() to allocate enough space and keep SMS_RANGE array always behind the SMS_BROADCAST_RANGES . I don't know if this is a good way or not.

Now I am moving on Cell broadcast index. Does anyone have idea about CBS index
