Gnokii is a suite of programs for communicating with mobile phones. It was initially only available for Nokia mobile phones, [1] but later extended to support others. It is available for Linux, BSD unix, Windows, and Mac OS X, and as source code.

Contents

Gnokii itself is a console tool, but it is used by several GUIs to communicate with phones; for example: Xgnokii, [2] Gnocky, and Gnome Phone Manager all use Gnokii internally.

It is licensed using the GNU GPL. Recent updates to Gnokii have enhanced support for modern phone models and protocols, including improved handling of 4-byte cell IDs, better encoding management for phonebook entries and SMS messages, and more robust AT command parsing for various phone brands beyond Nokia, such as Sony Ericsson, LG, and Motorola. [3]

Features

Connect could be established using serial/USB cables, infrared, Bluetooth.
