I did some tests, to know which Channel Requests are sent in the specific context, and I see that OpenBSC (with neci == 0!!) get 0xE5 or 0xE6 by calling and 0xE1 by SMS sending. Unfortunately, the mask is the same, and the function get_ctype_by_chreq can't decide what the phone says... Maybe an "if(ra == 0XE1)" will help to correct the problem, but it is a VERY BAD solution... > However there also seems to be a different solution: You can set > NECI to 1, this way the phone can tell you in more detail what > it wants.

I try with neci 1 in my config!
