Message Modes
The modem supports two message modes: PDU mode (AT+CMGF=0) and Simple text mode (AT+CMGF=1).
PDU Mode
Protocol Description Unit (PDU) mode is an 8-bit octet schema, but the data is 7-bit. Information about SMS and the PDU format.
Text Mode
Text mode is simply a decoding of PDU mode within the firmware of the modem. The modem will guess the codepage based upon message contents and convert the PDU message to plain text. It does not handle multipart/mime or multimedia messages.
