maybe our logic to detect a compressed message is wrong since we're
checking only bit 5:

        if (dcs.type & 0x20) {
                dprintf("Compressed message\n");
                return GN_ERR_NOTIMPLEMENTED;
        }

instead of all the coding group bits 011x xxxx (see ETSI TS 123 038
Section 5 CBS Data Coding Scheme)

try changing the check above (at line 465 of my copy of common/gsm-sms.c) with:

if ((dcs.type & 0xe0) == 0x60) {

or send me your debug output (privately if it contains personal details)
