We have a program that sends and receives SMS messages via the MBN IMbnSms interface and a 2G/3G/4G modem. Our code works in Windows 7 and Windows 8.x, but fails in Windows 10. IMbnSms.GetSmsStatus() always returns 0x8000000A (E_PENDING) error, even when the modem has been camped on a network for 10 minutes. IMbnSms.SmsSendPdu() gets E_MBN_FAILURE at the OnSmsSendComplete event.
Here is a simple test code for GetSmsStatus() that reproduces this issue:
using MbnApi;
using System;
namespace GetSmsStatusTest
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
GetSmsStatus(args[0]);
}
static void GetSmsStatus(string interfaceID)
{
try
{
MbnInterfaceManager mbnInfMgr = new MbnInterfaceManager();
IMbnInterfaceManager infManager = (IMbnInterfaceManager)mbnInfMgr;
//obtain the IMbnInterface passing interfaceID
IMbnInterface mbnInterface = infManager.GetInterface(interfaceID);
IMbnSms mbnSms = mbnInterface as IMbnSms;
if (mbnSms == null)
{
Console.WriteLine("Got no IMbnSms");
return;
}
MBN_SMS_STATUS_INFO mbnSmsStatusInfo;
mbnSms.GetSmsStatus(out mbnSmsStatusInfo);
Console.WriteLine("flag={0}, index={1}", mbnSmsStatusInfo.flag, mbnSmsStatusInfo.messageIndex);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine(ex);
}
}
}
Call it with the network interface GUID that you can get with "netsh mbn sho int".
Microsoft solved this issue with the Windows 10 update package that I got on 7th. I retested it with several data cards, it works now.
