--monitor [delay|once]

continually updates phone status to stderr. Optional delay parameter sets the refresh interval to delay seconds. Default is 1. once means the output will be printed only once.

--shell

runs interactive session that will allow to run sequent gnokii commands without a need to reconnect for the sequent commands.

DIALING

--getspeeddial location

reads speed dial from the specified location.

--setspeeddial number memory_type location

specify speed dial. location number 1 is usually reserved for voice mailbox number and it is unavailable as speed dial.

--dialvoice number

initiate voice call. On success print the callid identifier to be used with the --hangup command. The --monitor command can be used to show the callid.

With model = AT direct dialing from phonebooks is supported with careful use of shell escaping, for example:
gnokii --dialvoice ">SM42" # dial the number in location 42 of SM memory
gnokii --dialvoice '>"Home"' # dial the number if string matches exactly a contact name

--senddtmf string

send DTMF sequence.

--answercall callid

answer an incoming call. callid is a small integer number used to identify one of the incoming calls. The --monitor command can be used to show the callid.

--hangup callid

hangup an incoming call or an already established call. callid is a small integer number used to identify one of the incoming calls. If you initiated the call with --dialvoice this is the number printed by that command. The --monitor command can be used to show the callid.

--divert {--op|-o} {register|enable|query|disable|erasure} {--type|-t} {all|busy|noans|outofreach|notavail} {--call|-c} {all|voice|fax|data} [{--timeout|-m} time_in_seconds] [{--number|-n} number]

Manage call diverting/forwarding.

--op specifies one of the operations: register enable query disable erasure

--type specifies one of the event types: busy noans outofreach notavail unconditional all

SMS

--getsms memory_type start [end] [-f|--file file] [-F|--force-file file] [-a|--append-file file] [-d|--delete]

gets SMS messages from specified memory type starting at entry start and ending at end. For the memory types you usually use SM for the SIM card and ME for the phone memory (or MT for mixed phone and SIM memory, which preferred type for modern Motorolas). The exception are the phones supported by nk7110 (Nokia 7110/6210/6250) and nk6510 (Nokia 6310/6510/8310) drivers. For these you should use IN for the Inbox, OU for the Outbox, AR for the Archive, TE for the Templates and F1, F2, ... for your own folders. Use the --showsmsfolderstatus command to get a list of memory types available in your phone. end can be a number or the string 'end'. If end is not specified only one location - start is read. Messages are printed to stdout. Additionally, if --file file is used, messages are saved in file in mbox format. If file already exists, user is prompted whether to overwrite it. If --force-file file is used gnokii overwrites the file without asking. If --append-file file is used messages are appended to the file. If --delete switch is used, the message is deleted after reading.

--deletesms memory_type start [end]

PHONEBOOK

--getphonebook memory_type start_number [end_number|end] [[-r|--raw]|[-v|--vcard]|[-l|--ldif]]

reads specified memory location from phone. If end_number is not specified only one location - start is read. If instead of end_number the text end is specified then gnokii will read from start_number until it encounters a non-existant location. Valid memory types are: ME, SM, FD, ON, EN, DC, RC, MC, LD:

ME Internal memory of the mobile equipment

SM SIM card memory

FD Fixed dial numbers

ON Own numbers

EN Emergency numbers

DC Dialled numbers

RC Received calls

MC Missed calls

LD Last dialed numbers

Normally you get verbose output. You can use -v or --vcard switch to get output in vCard format or -l or --ldif switch to get output in ldif format or -r or --raw switch to get the raw output which is explained below. You can use it then with --writephonebook.

--writephonebook [-o|--overwrite] [-f|--find-free] [-m|--memory-type|--memory memory_type] [-n|--memory-location|--location number] [[-v|--vcard]|[-l|--ldif]]

reads data from stdin and writes to phonebook. Uses the same format as provided by the output of the getphonebook command. Default is raw format (see below for details) and alternate formats are vCard and ldif.

With --memory-type memory_type and --memory-location number you can set a memory type and a location if the input data doesn't specify them.

When the -o or --overwrite option is used, existing entries at a given location are overwritten.

When the -f or --find-free option is given, gnokii tries to find a free location. In this case, you can omit the location field in the input data.

The raw phonebook format is very simple. Each line represents one entry. Fields are separated by semicolons. Semicolons aren't allowed inside a field. The fields have to be in this order (the subentries are optional, ie. you can repeat all subentry field multiple times, but they have to be alltogether in the given order):

name

number

memory_type

entry_location

caller_group_number

subentry_type

subentry_number_type

subentry_id

subentry_text

Possible values of caller_group_number and the corresponding caller groups are (these are defaults, you are able to change these manually in your phone):

0 Family

1 VIP

2 Friends

3 Colleagues

4 Other

5 No group

Possible subentry types are described in the gnokii/common.h file:

7 subentry is the name
