Charset encoding

If you get the wrong characters when writing or reading your contacts from the phonebook or your SMS, make sure that:

• you are using at least gnokii 0.6.27 (or 0.6.28 to read SMS from Nokia Series 40 3rd) since some of the previous versions are known to not properly handle some encodings
• your system or terminal window has a value for the LC_ALL environment variable suitable to the language you are using (any locale based on UTF-8 should work) and that you are using a suitable font
• your phone and gnokii have agreed for a common charset
  • for model=AT enable the debug output and look for the answer to the AT+CSCS? and AT+CSCS=? commands then refer to the mailing list or IRC channel adding this information to a bug report
  • for model=3210 and other phones handled by the same driver if you can't read the phonebook or the calendar entries check the nk6100_capabilities[] array in common/phones/nk6100.c and if an entry for your phone is missing try adding it with the flag NK6100_CAP_PB_UNICODE (for phonebook) and/or NK6100_CAP_CAL_UNICODE (for calendar); the model string like "NSE-3" is the one printed by the gnokii --identify command.
