I'm working on SIM800L with arduino and try to read data from ThingSpeak. I can read my channel field last value (1 or 0) using AT+HTTPREAD command. But the content get from sim800L.read() is -1 not one or zero. I want to read 1 or 0 and then turn on/off LED. How to get the data of field from the response of AT+HTTPREAD? Please find the code as follows:
{.....
SIM800L.println("AT+HTTPPARA=\"URL\",\"http://api.thingspeak.com/channels/xxxxxxx/fields/3/last?api_key=xxxxxxxxxxxxxx\"");
delay(1000);
ShowSerialData();
SIM800L.println("AT+HTTPACTION=0");
delay(10000);
ShowSerialData();
SIM800L.println("AT+HTTPREAD");
delay(300);
ShowSerialData();
changeled();
ShowSerialData();
SIM800L.println("");
delay(100);
}
void changeled()
{
String content = "";
Serial.println(SIM800L.read());
content = content + String(SIM800L.read());
Serial.print("Content:");
Serial.println(content);
}

Is the SIM card activated? Have you confirmed that you can connect to the internet with the SIM800L module and your SIM card? Does your GSM provider support the use of their SIM card in the SIM800L module? See this video.
