@Shiva, - You use the sms app ([legato-af/apps/sample/sms at master · legatoproject/legato-af · GitHub](https://github.com/legatoproject/legato-af/tree/master/apps/sample/sms)) or your own app based on sms.api ? - You use which module and legato version/release ? BR ---

@Shiva, What is the kind of sms sent? can you put an example to be able to reproduce your issue! can you receive a words like : hello, welcome … ? Have added any modifications at the source code? Regards ---

Hi I din’t modify anything in source code, receiving sms data less than 167 bytes in text format. Any data more than 167 bytes receiving in pdu encoded format as two parts and DecodePduDeliver() function giving warning as Multi part SMS are not available yet. Not able to decode those two parts. Thanks & Regards, Shiva ---

@Shiva, Have you done the test with your smartphone? I did the test with a long message without a problem. Can you please describe your test? Regards ---

@Shiva, yes your message is too long. In fact, this SMS sample seems not able to read or receive the PDU message, the API \* [le\_sms\_GetPDU()](https://docs.legato.io/latest/le __sms__ interface_8h.html#a77555788d56f73fa52f56904cd39cd2f), it is not used. I think you need to add it in your code to get the message PDU data. BR ---

@Shiva, can you share the part of code where you receive and read the data?
