I’m a developer of the SMS platform
And in some moment I found that some clients send sms to my servers with incorrect encoding

Here example what I got a few days ago:
Text of sms:

[realme]579174 est votre code de vérification. Il expire dans 5 minutes. Ne le partagez avec personne.

Encoding was set – 0x0 (GSM7 encoding)

but as we can see in content exist not latin characters ̩. And with this characters encoding should be 0x8 (UCS2) and in this case Рcount of sms part should be 2.

before I thought – the client made mistake
But now I can see – count of such sms grows

Why client sends such sms? is it possible just forward it to supplier without changes? Can be a problem with calculating of the count of the parts?

Hope somebody has explanations of this situation

Thanks
