Hi. I have a little problem. Every time when I receive message to the GSM shild I need to delete all sms messages on the my SIM card. I tried to use flush() function but not success. My be somebody know how to solve this problem. Help please.
I tried to use flush() function but not success
Please post your code, and when you do please use [code] code goes here [/code] tags around it
// include the GSM library
#include <GSM.h>
// PIN Number for the SIM
#define PINNUMBER ""
// initialize the library instances
GSM gsmAccess;
GSM_SMS sms;
// Array to hold the number a SMS is retreived from
char senderNumber[20];
void setup() {
// initialize serial communications and wait for port to open:
Serial.begin(9600);
while (!Serial) {
; // wait for serial port to connect. Needed for native USB port only
}
Serial.println("SMS Messages Receiver");
// connection state
boolean notConnected = true;
// Start GSM connection
while (notConnected) {
if (gsmAccess.begin(PINNUMBER) == GSM_READY) {
notConnected = false;
} else {
Serial.println("Not connected");
delay(1000);
}
}
Serial.println("GSM initialized");
Serial.println("Waiting for messages");
}
void loop() {
char c;
char str1[4] = {'T','e','m','p'};
int i,j;
// If there are any SMSs available()
if (sms.available()) {
Serial.println("Message received from:");
//I think in this place I must delete all previous messages
// Get remote number
sms.remoteNumber(senderNumber, 20);
Serial.println(senderNumber);
// An example of message disposal
// Any messages starting with # should be discarded
if (sms.peek() == '#') {
Serial.println("Discarded SMS");
sms.flush();
}
// Read message bytes and print them
i = -1;
j=0;//Mark for true or false
while (c = sms.read()) {
i =i+1;
if (c != str1*) {j = 1;}//if symbol from message doesn't compare with symbol with massive then false (j=1)*
_ //Serial.println(str1*);_
_ Serial.print(c);//Print the message symbol*_

Hi,
Welcome to the forum.
Please read the first post in any forum entitled how to use this forum.
http://forum.arduino.cc/index.php/topic,148850.0.html then look down to item #7 about how to post your code.
It will be formatted in a scrolling window that makes it easier to read.
Thanks.. Tom.. 
Did you miss my request to use code tags ?
Without them parts of your code has been interpreted as HTML tags, hence the italics.

The compiler is definitely not too happy with this lineif (c != str1) {
Thank for you answer. I know that operator is incorrect. It must be c != str1*. My scetch works well. But the problem is I don't know how to clean all sms on the SIM card before receiving the message.*
Your sketch doesn't even compile. What you wrote in the reply is what is in the code, no change there. c is a variable and str1 is a pointer.
Can't help with your other part of the code as I don't have knowledge of the gsm.
/*
SMS receiver
This sketch, for the Arduino GSM shield, waits for a SMS message
and displays it through the Serial port.
Circuit:
* GSM shield attached to and Arduino
* SIM card that can receive SMS messages

My code compile and work well. I took it from arduino example modified it. On the code I wrote //I think in this place I must delete all previous messages
If you can't help say about it honestly.
Hi,
What model arduino are you using?
What shield are you using? Link to data/specs please.
Thanks.. Tom...
Hi,
Code in post #9, compiled for me, UNO and 1.6.11 IDE.
Tom...
I use Arduino Uno r3 clone and GSM shild IComSat v1.1 with SIM900.
