Hi Ashley,<br>
<br>
v1.4.0 of KDE Connect is extremely old. I would recommend updating.<br>
<br>
We try (quite hard) to maintain backwards-compatibility but it is
occasionally unsuccessful. I suspect that is the most likely
explanation here.<br>
<br>
The easiest way to check would be to test a newer version of the
desktop app (maybe in a VM). If it works in the new version, then
it's pretty clearly a compatibility problem.<br>
<br>
In order to fix the problem, you could connect both the phone app
and the desktop app to a debugger to see why the packet requesting
to send an SMS is not being processed. Most likely there's some
mistake on the Android side where it's no longer respecting those
old packets.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Simon<br>

<p>Hi Simon, <br>
</p>
<p>I'm using 1.4.0 on the desktop and laptop. <br>
</p>
<p>I tried the desktop SMS GUI and it takes an age to transfer all
my messages (sounds about right). It didn't send any messages,
but read them OK. It was flakey though, as it died a few times.
"Segmentation fault".</p>
<p>I am intending to try a different phone, but haven't been able
to get one away from their owner... yet. <br>
</p>
<p>Thanks for your help. I'll write again when I have tried
another phone.</p>
<p>Kind regards,<br>

Hi Ashley,<br>
<br>
What version of the desktop app are you running? Can you try the
latest release version?<br>
<br>
Does the desktop sms messaging app work for you?<br>
<br>
Are you able to test with another device? I don't think I've
heard of any device not being able to send sms because of
manufacturer strange-ness.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Simon<br>

<pre class="k9mail">Hello Simon,
I'm stuck. As before I tried the latest upgrade to 1.17 and once again,
SMSes no longer send. Unfortunately there was no going back to 1.14. I
suspect it is a Xiaomi security permission problem, except that I ended
up giving it all permissions and it still won't work.
Incoming SMSes are working. Ping works. Everything except actual sending
of SMSes. As mentioned below, it doesn't fail with an error, it just
finishes but nothing has been sent.
Do you have any suggestions how I can find the source of the problem?
Kind regards,
Ashley

I really appreciate your kdeconnect-cli. I have integrated it into my
scripts for running my business and generally just messaging.
In the last few days I upgraded to the 1.15 version and suddenly I
couldn't send SMSes anymore. There was no error message. It just
finished "sending" but nothing sent. Fortunately, I was able to
downgrade to 1.14 and I have it working again.
Thank you for your help.
Kind regards,
Ashley
