Reg::java Examples

[suresh senapathi]

Hi All,

I need java example to send text sms to mobile from pc.

I tried through many sites but all are depend on other 3rd party thing.

Any one help me for freewares like demo thing.

Thanks in advance.

You can't do this without a 3rd party, unless your PC has a SIM card built in. And you simply aren't going to find a completely free party for this, since sending SMS messages costs money. I don't think anyone is willing to give away money like that. Perhaps you don't have to pay but you still end up "paying" by looking at a lot and a lot of ads, and probably also ads inside the SMS messages.

And please use a meaningful subject line.. "Reg::java Examples" isn't really saying anything. You can edit your post to change it.

You can simply connect some mobile phone to your pc via bluetooth and then execute AT commands on that mobile phone to send SMS.

Here's example that i've copied from google:

AT
OK
AT+CMGF=1
OK
AT+CMGW="[phone]"
> A simple demo of SMS text messaging.
+CMGW: 1

OK
AT+CMSS=1
+CMSS: 20

OK

Note that such AT commands may differ on different mobile phones and other ones may not support sending sms via AT commands at all.

Not a "beginning" question. Moving.

Most SMS services can be addressed via a "magic email address", which usually is something like "[e-mail]". Just send a 1-line email of 140 characters or less to that address from the PC. Works great.

The hard part is making it general-purpose. Since the email address varies depending on the receiver's phone service provider, you have either know what that provider's email address conventions are or go through a generic gateway service that can find out and route it for you.

There's a fairly comprehensive list of the email address forms on the Wikipedia, including providers in both the US and in India.
