7 Unique Identifiers

Each entry of any type is identified by a unique integer. A list of UIDs of a given type can be obtained using the +C#SLST command. In case of address book items and address book groups the list is sorted alphabetically. Every UID returned after the +C#SLST command consists of 6 bytes. A list of n UIDs always consists of n * 6 bytes. There are no separators between UIDs. Of the 6 bytes only the first 4 bytes are relevant. The meaning of the last 2 bytes is unknown. The UID bytes are stored as hexadecimal values and in reverse order. To calculate the integer value of a UID first reverse the byte order and then convert from hexadecimal to decimal value.
Example: 1. +C#SLST returns 6 UID bytes: 0B 19 1C 00 2. Only the first 4 bytes are relevant: 0B 19 3. Reverse byte order: 00 0B 4. Convert hexadecimal 1902000B to decimal: 419561472
On a newly updated or reset phone address book item UIDs start from 419561472 address book group UIDs start from 419889152 calendar event UIDs start from 637534208 the greeting picture always has UID 1 the 42 factory ring tone UIDs range from 400 to 441 custom ring tone UIDs start from 442 WAP setting UIDs start from 687865872.
New UIDs of any type are ascending if allocated by the phone (i.e. no UID is specified in the +C#SPUT command). Whenever an entry is deleted its UID will not be reallocated automatically by the phone until it is updated or reset.
8 Entry type coding schemes

8.1 Address book items Address book items are stored in the vCard format. They are transferred from/to the phone as plain text. The following vCard extension properties are used in address book items: X-SIEMENS-GROUP-ID This property is used to assign address book items to address book groups. A property value of -1 indicates that an item is not assigned to any group. To assign an item to a group set the group ID (not the group UID, see details in section 8.2) as property value. X-SIEMENS-GROUP-SOUND-ID The meaning of this property in the address book item context is unknown. X-SIEMENS-GROUP-NOF-ENTRIES The meaning of this property in the address book item context is unknown. X-SIEMENS-NPI;HOME The use of this property is unknown. The property value is set to 1 if a home phone number is specified in the address book item, otherwise it is set to 0. X-SIEMENS-NPI;WORK The use of this property is unknown. The property value is set to 1 if an office phone number is specified in the address book item, otherwise it is set to 0. X-SIEMENS-NPI;CELL The use of this property is unknown. The property value is set to 1 if a mobile phone number is specified in the address book item, otherwise it is set to 0. X-SIEMENS-NPI;FAX The use of this property is unknown. The property value is set to 1 if a fax number is specified in the address book item, otherwise it is set to 0. X-SIEMENS-NPI;MODEM The use of this property is unknown. The property value is set to 1 if a data number is specified in the address book item, otherwise it is set to 0.
Siemens S40 proprietary AT command reference 8.2. Address book groups
Address book groups are stored in the vCard format. They are transferred to/from the phone as plain text. The following vCard property extensions are used in address book groups: X-SIEMENS-GROUP-NAME The value of this property contains the address book group name. (Note: The built-in editor of the S40 displays up to 20 characters.) X-SIEMENS-GROUP-ID The value of this property contains the address book group ID. The group ID can be computed by the formula group ID = group UID - 419889152 with 419889152 being the value of the first allocated group UID (see section 7 for details). Thus the first group stored after a reset or an update has group ID 0, the second has group ID 1, etc. X-SIEMENS-GROUP-SOUND-ID This property is used to assign ring tones to groups. A property value of -1 indicates the standard ring tone as specified in the S40 tones setup. To assign a different ring tone set its UID as property value. X-SIEMENS-GROUP-NOF-ENTRIES The value of this property contains the number of address book items that are assigned to the group. X-SIEMENS-NPI;HOME The meaning of this property in the address book group context is unknown. X-SIEMENS-NPI;WORK The meaning of this property in the address book group context is unknown. X-SIEMENS-NPI;CELL The meaning of this property in the address book group context is unknown. X-SIEMENS-NPI;FAX The meaning of this property in the address book group context is unknown. X-SIEMENS-NPI;MODEM The meaning of this property in the address book group context is unknown.

Siemens S40 proprietary AT command reference 8.3 Calendar events
Calendar events are stored in the vCalendar format. They are transferred to/from the phone as plain text. The Siemens S40 accepts only one vEvent in each vCalendar. 8.4 Greeting picture The Siemens S40 shows a user-defined greeting logo during network search. (Note: Permanently shown operator logos are not supported.) The greeting logo is an image with a size of 104 * 64 = 6656 pixels and 4 colours (2 bit colour depth) that are displayed as black, dark grey, light grey, and white. The greeting logo data has a fixed size of 1670 bytes: The first 6 bytes compose the UID (always 1). They are followed by 1664 bytes of pixel data with every pixel data byte covering 4 pixels. 8.5 Ring tones The Siemens S40 ring tones consist of a maximum of 255 tones. Each tone is defined by a frequency and a duration. The frequency range is from 440 Hz to 3520 Hz. Duration is specified in milliseconds. Trailing tones with the same frequency are played as one tone with duration added up. A pause is a tone with a frequency of 0 and a given duration. The first 4 bytes (1 to 4) of the ring tone data compose the ring tone UID (see section 7 for details). The next 42 bytes (5 to 46) contain the ring tone name in UCS2 format (i.e. 2 bytes per character). Ring tone names can have up to 20 characters and are null terminated (42 bytes = 20 characters * 2 bytes + #0 * 2 bytes). If ring tone names are shorter than 20 characters the remaining name bytes are undefined but must be present. The following byte (47) must always be set to 1 in custom ring tones. (Note: It is set to 0 in factory ring tones.) The next byte (48) specifies the number of tones. The ring tone data ends with pairs of 2 frequency bytes (low byte and high byte) and 2 duration bytes (low byte and high byte) for each tone.

You can choose Default delay or select a period from 5 to 30 seconds.

Caller access

This feature allows you to limit the number of callers from which you will accept calls. You can select whether you want to receive calls from All callers, from a Single caller or from a Group of callers. You will then be asked to define the entries from which you will accept calls.

Call types (fax/data)

This menu is relevant only if you are using your phone for fax and data communications! The settings on this menu should be changed only in connection with fax and data transmissions, if necessary. Fax and data capability will require a separate data interface kit (optional).

Send SMS setup

To be able to send and receive SMS messages you must store the name and number of the service centre of your network operator. However, many network operators will already have stored this information and some other necessary parameters for you on your SIM card. Service centre The service centre is where your SMS messages are forwarded to the recipient. Selecting this submenu gives you the following options: View centres: A list of already defined service centres will be presented to you. Press OPTION if you want to edit or delete one of the service centres.
Under the edit option you can change the name and number of the service centre, enter a destination number to which you want your messages to be sent, change the validity time and teleservice type. Default centre: Select the service centre through which you want your messages to be sent. If you select No default, you will be asked to enter the service centre number, validity time and teleservice type each time you send a message. Contact your network operator to get the service centre number if it is not stored on your SIM card, and then proceed as follows: Select Add new centre and press OK. Press EDIT. Enter the service centre name and press OK.
Enter the service centre number, destination number, and select the validity time and teleservice type in the same way. Press SAVE.
Remember to add "+" and the national code before the number of your service centre so you can also send SMS messages from abroad. If you often send messages to the same number it is an advantage to store this as your Destination num-
ber. You will thus only have to confirm and not reenter the number each time you want to send a message. The validity time is the period of time that an SMS message will remain with your service centre if for some reason it cannot be delivered right away.
In the standby display a small number on the left or right-hand side of the signal strength indicator informs you whether you are on line one or line two (only if you have Alternate Line Service).

If you enter an invalid PIN code three times, your SIM card will be blocked, and to unblock it you have to enter the PUK code supplied by your network operator. This procedure prevents unauthorised persons from working out your PIN code by repeatedly entering different combinations of numbers. For your own sake, remember to write down your SIM lock code to be able to deactivate the lock at a later time. You have 10 attempts before the phone is blocked. The phone will inform you how many tries you have left before the SIM card is blocked. If you enter an invalid PUK code 10 times, your SIM card will be permanently blocked and you have to contact your network operator.
