@emotion:
if you had ssh/sshd installed before trouble begins and you know your root password then you can try

Doing the following tests in SMSCON results an error being SMSed and emailed to me (and the tests do not actually work):
Email
Email with picture
Location
Track ON
Initiate SSH
Other tests (Call, SMS, Execute Script) work fine.
The error is always:
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Edit:
All fixed now after doing something unknown. I had already tried re-setting SMSCON and rebooting the device which had not helped, but things are indeed now!

I've got a problem. While initialising it hangs. I cant make any tests and even when I reset the settings it keeps sending messages to my default number. How to debug/provide usefull info for you?

The ps you have is not compatible with iDont's busybox power or the default one. The usual gnu tools they don't replace the default binaries.
Maybe you've added them yourself to $PATH?
We would like to revert the changes done to fix your case because they break SMSCON for those people with the busybox power installed.
Cheers

It provides:
Code:
/bin/kill /bin/ps /etc/init.d/procps /etc/sysctl.conf /lib/libproc-3.2.7.so /sbin/sysctl /usr/bin/free /usr/bin/pgrep /usr/bin/pkill /usr/bin/pmap /usr/bin/pwdx /usr/bin/skill /usr/bin/slabtop /usr/bin/snice /usr/bin/tload /usr/bin/top /usr/bin/uptime /usr/bin/vmstat /usr/bin/w.procps /usr/bin/watch
But to be honest I got quite used to this ps. It offers me some parameters I regularly use (and it's compatible with my Linux desktop ps).
It's not always wise to rely on output of tools, because it can change on new releases I know from my own experience. But I also know it is hard to avoid a lot of times.
What is the dilemma you are facing? That there are two different outputs?
Couldn't that be solved by a construction like:
Code:
if /bin/ps = regular file then: # expect procps output if /bin/ps = symlink to busybox then: # expect busybox output
If it is too complicated, please remove the support for the procps ps tool. Then it is up to me to chose between smscon or procps ps. Now knowing why smscon behaved in that way is already a nice bonus

Hi all,
to fix the ps-problem the next version will call it this way:
$ busybox ps
This (only) assumes that busybox is (still) installed even when other packages set /bin/ps to what ever.
Can everybody readin this please confirm that above command displays PID in 1st column on his/her device?

That's an even better solution!
Running the latest busybox beta from iDont:
Running the latest busybox beta from iDont:
Code:
BusyBox v1.19.3 (Debian 1.19.3power3~envparser) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
~ $ busybox ps
PID USER VSZ STAT COMMAND
1 root 1740 S /sbin/init
This is major problem. To correct it, it is too much effort and most important requires an advanced expertise level in the operating system.
Similarly to what yablacky said above, I hope you have a recent backup. After the reflash, restore the backup. If this works then you will have many things back.
I suggest you search about putty/ssh and set this up. If you would like to mess with your device it is better to do it from a real keyboard/screen.
