TinyGSM

v0.12.0

Changed

• Moved bulk of waitResponse function to modem template and gave modems handleURCs fxn
• Moved option in waitResponse for verbose outputs.
• setBaud now returns a bool
• Replace new line consts with defines and renamed to AT_NL
• Renamed all RegStatus enums to be unique
• Replaced NULL with nullptr and replaced c-style casts.
• Moved setCertificates function and the certificate name matrix to the SSL template.
• Changed inputs for (unimplemented) SSL certificate functions.
• All modems will now return the pre-defined manufacturer and model in the name if the function to get the internal name fails.
• Cleaned up code for getting modem names.
• Made battery return types signed.

Added

• Added support for SSL for the Quentcel BG95 and BG96 from Aurelien BOUIN and George O'Connor
• Added support for UBLOX SARA-R5 from Sebastian Bergner
• Added support for SIMCOM A7672X from Giovanni de Rosso Unruh
• Added SIM5320 GPS location from Bengarman
• Added functions getModemSerialNumber, getModemModel, and getModemRevision.
• Added deep debugging option
• Added documentation to the FIFO class

Removed

• Removed non-functional factory reset from SIM70xx series

Fixed

• Removed extra wait on SIM7000 from Mikael Fredriksson
• Fix status returns on ESP8266/ESP32 AT commands
• Fix length of HEX for Sequans Monarch
• Fix SIM7600 password then user when cid is set from github0013
• Fix cardinal points in location by gps for SIM7600 from Juxn3
• Fix NTP server sync for SIM70xx models from Gonzalo Brusco
• Fixed SIM70xx inheritance

Changed

• Added function to check DNS for XBee - used to confirm network connection of wifi XBee
• Other XBee improvement and stability fixes from @neilh10

Added

• Added voice call support for SIM7600 (@LukasSkywalker)
• Implemented stream peek (@IoTThinks)
• Added audio functions for SIM800 series (@wifixcort)

Fixed

• Fixed memory access in Sequans Monarch (@UCIS)
• Properly declare header files in the library.json for PlatformIO (@ivankravets)

Changed

• Switched the outgoing data mode to hex for Sequans Monarch (@ffontaine)
• Modified Espressif commands to first attempt to change settings using the most current firmware and to fallback to the _CUR (for current, rather than default) commands (@SRGDamia1)
  • The very oldest (<1) and the current (2.0+) AT firmwares didn't differentiate between "current" and "default" settings for things like the IP mode. For some reason, the firmware versions in the middle did.

Bug fixes

• fixes a compiler error in the u-blox module

New Features

• added TinyGSM.h for easier compatibility with the Arduino CLI thanks to @FStefanni

Improvements

• Minor changes to u-blox thanks to @FStefanni

Bug Fixes

• Fixed crash on SIM7000SSL if checking available on non-existent sock
• Removed un-used warning on BG96

New Features

• Added a separate set of commands for the SIM7000 to support SSL
  • Thank you to @FStefanni for most of this work
• Added support for the SIM7070/7080/7090 LTE-M/NB IoT modules
• Made a new module for NTP support
  • Thank you to @Bascy for this
• Add Bluetooth support for the SIM808
  • Thank you to @adrianca88
• Migrate from Travis CI to GitHub actions

Improvements

• Several small improvements to Sequans Monarch modules
  • Thank you to @ffontaine
• Check GPRS (in addition to EPS) for Quectel BG96
  • Thank you to @j3tm0t0
• Where sensible, reading saved configuration values from XBee's before attempting to write.
  • This is in effort to reduce writes to flash on the XBee's - the manual warns that excessive writing to flash may lead to instability or reduce the module's life-span.

Bug fixes

• Fix USSD for longer messages
  • Thank you to @yaroshd81

New Features

• added a setPhoneFunctionality() function, used primarily for the CFUN command
  • thank you to @adrianca88

Improvements

• Multiple small fixes to the MC60
  • thank you to @mikhailgalitskiy

Bug Fixes

• Fixed passage by reference in GPS variables
  • thank you to @trixymoon

New Features

• specify that only TinyGsmClient.h should be included by the Arduino IDE when using that IDE's "Include library" command
• SIM7500/7600/7800 - added setGNSSMode(uint8_t mode,bool dpo) and setGNSSMode() (#405 from lewis he)
• SequansMonarch - specifically deactivate all contexts on disconnecting from network

Improvements

• fix internally used streamGetLength functions (#386 from https://github.com/adrianca88)
• SIM7000 - accept SMS Ready as an indication that the module is ready and decreased reboot time.

Decreased the time to wait for reboot for the SIM7000 so units that don't give a ready notification aren't waiting for a whole minute for nothing.

Fixed several issues probably related to null pointer access (#379, #236 )
Checking GPRS and EPS status for SIM7000 (fix #381 and #375)
Fix CCID for SIM800 (#336 )
Fix battery voltage (#369 )
Fix temperature on Quectel M95 (#377)
Made internal stream public again (#373)

It's been a long time since a release!

In this release

• New module support

  • SIMCom SIM5360/5320/7100
  • SIMCom SIM7500/7600/7800

• New Features

  • ALL modules can now return network time. Where possible, the init/begin function will instruct the module to synchronize its clock to the network upon connection.
    • Time is retrievable as a string or as parsed integers

• Other

  • Large structural changes, creating a series of templates for different types of functionalities which the modules can inherit from.
  • In creating and applying the new templates, most modules gained some functionality by way of comparison with other modules that had already implemented it.
  • Arduino "String" implementations have largely been removed, except as return values

Please post any issues you have.
@SRGDamia1

Fixing bugs, nothing more

NOTE: Please do not use releases 0.7.4 or 0.7.7!

In this release

• New module support

  • Sequans Monarch LTE-M (ie Nimbelink Skywire VZN LTE-M) by @nootropicdesign
  • Split SARA R4/N4 into a separate file from other ublox

• New Features

  • Fully implement connect timeout for all modems
    • This is not just a compiler patch for the ESP32 and ESP8266, the connect function should fully honor any given timeout. NOTE: The timeout value in the connect is in seconds , most other timeouts are in milliseconds.
  • Added functions to get chip temperature, where applicable
  • Added/implemented some additional battery functions

• Other

  • Completely removed memory-consuming virtual class
    • To reduce replication, most common functions have be written as pre-processor macros in the common file.
  • Added timeouts in all cases where waiting for a response from the modem. This should prevent infinite hangs.

Enjoy 😉

New Modules:

• Quectel M95
• Quectel MC60/MC60E
• SIMMCOM SIM7000

Other Features:

• Created a parent class implemented in TinyGsmModem.h which all modems follow. This makes it easier for other libraries to integrate TinyGSM functions without already knowing the specific modem in use.
