Hi All,


I have one doubt regarding MMS features.

In previous mail list ofono team mention that "*MMS is not supported by
oFono, these belong in a separate daemon*". Related link is as follows  :
http://lists.ofono.org/pipermail/ofono/2010-June/002672.html

I thought it is ConnMan.

But in ConnMan mailing list it is saying that "*oFono will export these via
a Socks5 or HTTP proxy to the MMS application without having ConnMan
involved*". Related link is as follows :
http://lists.connman.net/pipermail/connman/2010-June/001515.html

May I know what is that daemon that supports MMS features (upload /
download, MMS read receipt indication, Delivery report indication).

Thanks,
Satya.

Who says there is already such a daemon. The devs have been describing the
architecture they are planning to use for the potential MMS integration. As far
as I know there is now such MMS daemon available at the moment.

this is all true. The MMS application/daemon will talk over a Socks5
proxy to oFono to get access to the MMSC. And will use oFono's D-Bus
interface to get MMS push notifications.

For MMS support we are on purpose trying to avoid using ConnMan and will
handle all TCP connections that the MMS application/daemon needs via a
proxy. This is important to not interfere with the Internet connections.
In general the contexts for MMS are just for MMS only and so we handle
them internally in oFono.

I might look rather complicated and complex right now, but once the
basic pieces are getting merged into oFono, I hope this becomes a lot
clearer.

Marcel
