@francesco-gallo
What is your firmware version?

import os
os.uname()

you should have 1.17.0.b1

@livius

Ops...no...

@francesco-gallo
update device because docs fallow firmware and in 1.17 there was big change in LTE

@livius Thanks...
The update is done...and now is ok..

My question is about an example code regards the use of LTE to send temperature value to online service, or send the temperature value to smartphone...

First question is - do you have succesfully connected to LTE CAT M1?
If yes, which provider do you use and in which location (country)

For sensors you can use any code sample existed for e.g. wifi
only difference is start point (connection to the network)
next steps are the same create socket and send data
you can use e.g. urequest
https://github.com/micropython/micropython-lib/blob/master/urequests/urequests.py

e.g.

import urequests
res = urequests.post('your_service_url', json={'MyTemerarureSensorName': str(temp)})
res.close()
if (res.status_code - 200) < 100:
    print("post ok:" + str(temp) + " C")
else:
    print('some error')

@livius Regards first question: i used the code here: https://docs.pycom.io/chapter/firmwareapi/pycom/network/lte/cat-m1.html...

But I did not have any results...The country is Italy and I have the tim sim..
