SBMG is built to support as broadly as possible but different devices provide different challenge particularly due to the fact manufacturers modify characteristics of the device OS. Below are the specifications we target to support acting as a guide for finding a device to install the SBMG SMS gateway service.

AtrributeTarget minimum spec
OSAndroid 9.0
RAM3GB
Supported networks
  • Spark
  • 2Degrees
  • OneNZ

While most devices meeting this criteria will be compatible with SBMG we are aware some devices/brands can cause problems due to thier software including:

  • Motorola
  • This list will be updated with any other problematic brands

To avoid issues we recommend using devices already confrimed to be using SBMG by testers, partners, and customers. If you already have a device of a brand listed below or better yet, the same year or model as one listed we would expect SBMG should work as expected.
