Hi, 

Buildid "20130321070205", device: ikura
gecko commit: b5183c99228bdc5be33340e359efd1b4f0859e92

Blocking for certification (adding meta dep). 

When inserting in a EUR symbol, this is not considered as an extended 7b symbol, but just as a 7b symbol. 

"pure" 7b symbols should be counted +1
"extended" 7b symbols should be counted +2

Here you can see both: 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GSM_03.38#GSM_7_bit_default_alphabet_and_extension_table_of_3GPP_TS_23.038_.2F_GSM_03.38

It seems only to happen with EUR(€) symbol, but not with "[", "]", "{", "}", also 7b extended and counted +2. 

nominating for tef?

Alhad, please have a look?

When testing, use the QC RIL, as it looks like it's working in Mozilla RIL.

Given comment 2, marking as NPOTB for now.

This issue is happening because in commercial RIL, when dom.sms.strict7BitEncoding is enabled (enabled by TEF), we are translating the Euro symbol (€ - unicode 0x20ac) to "E" i.e, 0x45. That is why you see single character 7 bit encoding. 

I took a look at Moz RIL, and it looks like they have commented out that translation from the strict 7 Bit table. We'll remove that translation from our strict 7 bit table as well, so that € doesn't get squashed to E.

I will update with AU information once available, thanks.

Solved in the build 20130426093145 with the ril LINUX_GECKO_ICS_STRAWBERRY_V1.01.00.01.019.085
