SM5100B trouble finding <CR>

Hello everyone,

I'm having an issue parsing a response from the SM5100B and finding a carriage return. Currently, I set the module to notify me of a new SMS (AT+CNMI=3,3,0,0). According to the documentation:

http://www.sparkfun.com/datasheets/CellularShield/SM5100B%20AT%20Command%20Set.pdf (page 72 of 141, PDF)

there is a carriage return right before the text of the SMS. When my ParseResp() function is run, it can't find a carriage return.

I know my ParseResp() code works because I tested it by looking for a different character. For instance, I told it to look for a "&", and then a put a "&" at the beginning of my SMS to the module. Obviously this is a quick fix for the problem, and I could just start all my SMSs with a "&", but I would rather fix the issue than skirt around it.

Here is all my code:

/*  There is an issue here with digitalRead and digitalWrite.
    When I send pin 8 HIGH, pin 7 reads as HIGH for some reason.
*/

#include <NewSoftSerial.h>  
#include <string.h>        
#define BUFFSIZE 512

char ATBuff[BUFFSIZE];
String SMSBuff = "";
String Mess = "";
int CELL_REG = 0;
int CELL_AT = 0;
//int CELL_SMSMODE = 0;
int nBufPos;
int dataReady = 0;
int noCR = 0;
NewSoftSerial cell(2,3);

void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(9600);
  cell.begin(9600);
  delay(1500);
  Serial.println("Starting Serial");
  pinMode(7,INPUT); //get rid of this
    
  while(CELL_REG == 0 || CELL_AT == 0){
    ATGetResp();
    ATParse();
  }
  
  Serial.println("Found Network");
  SetText();
  SetNotify();
  
  /*   Sends SMS
  cell.print("AT+CMGS=");
  cell.print(byte(34));
  cell.print("PHONENUMBER");
  cell.print(byte(34));

  cell.print("'IT WORKS!!!!!'");
  cell.println(byte(26));
  Serial.println("done");
  */
  
  
}

void loop() {
  
  //This loop exists to delete SMSs while the code is running
  if (digitalRead(7)==HIGH){
    cell.println("AT+CMGD=1,4");
    Serial.println("SMSs deleted.");

NOTE: I took the ATGetResp() code from user Philherup.

My question for anyone out there is: Why can't I find the carriage return? What am I missing and/or doing wrong?

Thanks!

In the ATGetResp() function, I would recommend putting each { on a new line, and properly indenting the code.

Put the useful comments BEFORE the code. Get rid of the useless comments.

        c = cell.read();                           // Set c to current serial character

Well, duh?

When you have long comments at the end of the code, and more code than fits in the window, I have to scroll up and down and left and right to read it. Scrolling windows inside of windows is difficult. Make it easy by making the lines short, so the vertical scroll bars are not necessary.

Comments after code are almost always added to explain what a statement is doing, for the benefit of new users. The people that will be able to help you are NOT new users.

Read each character, and decide what to do with THAT character. Nested reads are very difficult to keep straight.
