PDU mode is not supported by gnokii. This mobile supports only TEXT mode

As you can see, the device does not support PDU mode. What are the
alternatives? Does Gnokii support Text mode? How can I turn on the
Text mode in Gnokii?

I am attaching my gnokiirc file also.

TIA for your help and support.
