Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ushahidi/SMSSync/issues/223

On recent updates, received messages on the phone are being sent to the server with the "application/json" Content-Type, instead of application/x-www-form-urlencoded.
This way, $_POST array on PHP is not being filled with the received POST data in the request.

Are you sure you don't have JSON as the sync scheme?

You're right, JSON is set. I think I got confused by the fact that switching to JSON was not affecting the post body in the request, but only the Content-Type.
Thanks
