Hi,

First of all, sorry for posing long query.

I am working in mobiles testing tool development project and trying to test the sendfax between the mobiles. I am not able to send the fax. I am getting the following error:

root@aims-pc-111]# sendfax -x 5 -l /dev/ms0 "9848350469" /home/fax_send/fax_doc.g3

Trying fax device '/dev/ms0'... OK.
Dialing 9848350469... OK.
sending '/home/fax_send/fax_doc.g3'...
sendfax: FAILED to transmit '/home/fax_send/fax_doc.g3'.

Transmission error: +FHNG:-4 (Unexpected 'ERROR' or 'NO CARRIER' response (int.))

I have tried with ericsson Z600, T68 and R520 mobiles and getting the same specified error.

Basically I have redhat linux 9 (kernel:2.4.20-8) PC and done the following:
1. Modified the config files (mgetty.config and sendfax.config)
2. Installed the following rpms and tried:
- mgetty-1.1.30-2.i386.rpm
- mgetty-sendfax-1.1.30-2.i386.rpm
- mgetty-voice-1.1.30-2.i386.rpm
- mgetty-viewfax-1.1.30-2.i386.rpm
3. Uninstalled the rpms and installed the source code (mgetty-1.1.31) and tried.

In both the cases (2&3), the same error is coming.

Can somebody please throw some light on the error and tell me where I am going wrong. Please let me know if you need more info.

Your help is highly appreciated.

ps: I have data & fax support for the SIMS

Please see the sendfax.log for the mobiles T68 and Z600:
