Long received SMS issue and other recommendations

[urbanbur]

Hi,
first, this is an awesome integration
Been using it since the first version and am now moving to custom_components.

The Issue:
My operator sends a really long notification SMS "Obvescamo vas, da ste presegli 80% dnevnega prenosa podatkov po najvisji razpolozljivi hitrosti v vasem narocniskem paketu, zato bo hitrost po celotni porabi zmanjsana na 64/64 kbps. Za nadaljnjo uporabo podatkovne storitve pri najvisji razpolozljivi hitrosti, ki ne predstavlja dodatnih stroskov, posljite SMS s kljucno besedo NADALJUJ na stevilko 7070. stevilo podaljsanj ni omejeno. Vas Telemach"
On reception, sensor.last_sms becomes unknown.
This script can only receive SMSs up to 254 characters.
I am using MC889.

Minor issue: In Integration, the link for "Known issues" points to unexisting:
https://github.com/Vaskivskyi/ZTE-MC-Home-assistant-repo/issues
instead of your repo.

Recommendations:
Make phone number and message for Send SMS (50GB) customizable.
(it would be even more benefitial if integration could send arbitrary messages to arbitrary numbers for other notifications.
With my operator we have daily, not monthly limit.

Can you try to test this version ?

https://github.com/Kajkac/ZTE-MC-Home-assistant-repo/releases/tag/v1.0.29

1. Added Last sms to atributes (254 characters and more)
2. Switched SMS number and message for buttons to configuration
3. Added 2 more buttons for preconfigured sms sending inside configuration

Hi, Awesome, first impressions are great. Many thanks! Much appreciated! The content value of last sms now works properly under simulation. To confirm, I will wait for the real message from the operator. In case you decide to polish, technically speaking the integration is now general, therefore it reaches beyond automation name “Automatic SMS Sender T-Mobile HR”. Same for button “Send SMS 50GB” Also, Telemach is imposing daily limit, not monthly limit, but this is not important. With best regards, Urban PS: I was using modified python scripts of your previous integration, but now I have switched the modem to external and would have to rewrite the code with new addresses. HACS integration is so much better. I wouldn’t ask but, if I would mess with it some additions would get overwritten in case you would make an update.

Integration itself is now in prerealease at least this version, techicly speaking it should be easy to delete it and add it again, when i complete whole set of features then updates should work fine, adding a new funcionalitys require delete and re add. (Lots of code refactoring it messes up a lot of things)

and yeah will make iz general, first ever edition was out of hobby for my router in Croatia so thats why it was adjusted like that :)

[urbanbur]

Thanks again for the efforts. One more thing: is this by design that the automation turns off at each HA restart?

If automation is enabled , also after HA restart is enabled.

Hi,
entity sensor.recieved_sms_s is never refreshed, I wanted to use this entity to trigger automation upon receipt of SMS
