I am trying to develop the application which, any mobile is connected with PC and needs to send SMS through the mobile one by one, software is used only to connect the mobile and type the message.
When the send button is clicked the message should send through mobile not through any modems.
I have tried to search everywhere, but I couldn't find anything.
Can anybody guide me on how to proceed?
Thanks in advance.
If you want to do it on your own without using a sms-library you can open the modem in handset through a serial port and send out hayes at-commands for sms-operation.
Before you program you can try it using a terminal program.
Example
; Send message to "0170 00000" (Ctrl+Z to finish and send the message)
AT+CMGS="017000000"
> This is a SMS Test!!^Z
+CMGS: 3 ; OK, message gone
Note: these at-commands are not supported on every handset. Maybe the handset needs additional configuration through extra at commands (set textmode, set sms-gateway, ...)
Several sms hayes related commands are described in http://www.cellular.co.za/at_etsi.htm .
Yes, absolutely you can send sms through your pc connected with your cell phones. "Nokia PC Suite" is the only software; after installing software in your computer, connect your Nokia handset by usb cable with computer and select pc suite option. After then launch Nokia PC Suite. Now there u go.
What you are trying to do is difficult. It is difficult not because the programming is difficult, but because there are restrictions (security!) from the carrier side and from the mobile manufacturer side.
To be able to send messages from a mobile device connected to a PC, the mobile device must provide access to the internal functions its OS uses to deliver those SMSs. They could be low level modem commands, or a high level API; but in any case it will depend on the device manufacturer SDK.
If you want to type more efficiently, then maybe a mobile device with support for a bluetooth keyboard is a good idea.
I guess that depends strongly on the used mobile phone. I don't think there's a generic solution for all manufacturers. And such feature is probably hardly documented.
However, I'm not sure, if this is worth the effort at all, because e.g. Nokia provides the software "Ovi Suite" (or older PC Suite), which already supports sending SMS via connected phone. I think there are similar programs from other manufacturers.
It is possible to send SMS from a computer via a connected phone, but the phone itself will be the modem (I assume you don't want to connect another device for SMS). You can see this question, this question and (possibly) GSMComm for more info

Good afternoon, I'm developing a system with a pair of Hololensv2 and an android smartphone using Unity.
In my system the smartphone should send some data to the hololens, more precisely I'm trying to send the location data (GPS) cause in the hololens there's not that specific sensor.
I developed a full functioning UDP solution already, but now I need to build a network free one to be able to use everything outdoor.
The first possibility that came to my mind was to use Bluetooth, connect the 2 devices a send from the smartphone a message to the hololens.
Following this project on GitHub: https://github.com/FlipWebApps/HololensGPS i managed to build a theoretically working Bluetooth receiver on the headset, the problem is that it is a beacon receiver and not all the smartphone can be set as beacons.
Moreover, on Unity, I can't use directly Bluetooth directives but I need to pass through a plugin. I tried 2 already without good results:
https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/integration/ibeacon-15260
https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/network/bluetooth-networking-for-ios-tvos-and-android-124274
While with the first one I didn't get anywhere, with the second one I managed to find, without being able to connect to it, the hololens Bluetooth.
I really feel like I'm missing something...
I don't even know which option would be better between trying to connect the 2 devices directly or to keep trying to set the smartphone as a beacon and the hololens as a receiver...
Any idea/suggestion would be highly appreciated... Thank you all.
It really depends on the type of communication needed across devices, but since your networked version is UDP a one-way broadcast should work. If the Android device is broadcasting a value then the Hololens can just listen, and it should not matter if you have 2 or 200 of them. The trick is that none are 'connected' to the broadcaster, they are just observing.
You would only need to connect the two Hololenses to each other if they provide dependent services. In that case you might consider setting the Android as a WiFi host which would have greater range and is already coded ;)
If there is no need for that level of range or complexity, the Beacon protocol can act like UDP. As Beacons are Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) you would need to set the Hololens to Observer mode so that it will listen but not connect. A very good explanation on how to do that with BLE on a Pi is here.
I was in the same situation as you, and I solved it using UDP. You need to have two phones, however, since Android phones (and I imagine iOS devices as well) do not make themselves a part of their own WiFi hotspot for security reasons. You have one phone acting as the switch, with its WiFi hotspot enabled. Your second phone connects to that hotspot, and broadcasts its GPS location over UDP. Your Hololens also connects to the same hotspot, and can then receive the UDP messages. All using Unity code, without the need for native Bluetooth plugins.
This is the question asked at many places but I could not find any satisfying answer so asking it in stackoverflow. Hope I will get answer soon.
I need to make an Windows Application (VC++/C#/VB.NET) which can send SMS using windows mobile which is connected through ActiveSync or Device center without GSM Modem.
Hope to get positive replies :)
Just so we're clear, you want to use a windows mobile application to send an SMS using the active sync connection to a PC rather than using a WWAN cellular modem?
If the PC is connected to the Internet, I suppose you could use your ActiveSync connection to get Internet access for your mobile device. From there, you could access a web service that allows sending SMS messages. Verizon provides one here: https://text.vzw.com/customer_site/jsp/messaging_lo.jsp
This seems silly, though. Why not just use the device's WLAN to connect to the internet instead of connecting it to a PC? If you must be connected to a PC, why not just use the PC to send the SMS?

Does anybody know any online tutorials about receiving data between a desktop client (in c# mostly) and an iPhone with bluetooth?
How would a C# desktop client connect over bluetooth... by reading the COM Ports?
From what I understand the iPhone will not pair with a PC as a bluetooth device, as an iPhone will only connect to approved device types. There may be some way to "fake" this and have the PC show up as an approved device, though I'm not sure there's a BT stack to do this.
An easier solution (if it meets your requirements) may be to try using the WIFI connection, you can open up a TCP socket between the device and PC fairly easily and push data through it at a high rate. You should be able to do this with an ad-hoc connection (so you don't need a router) though I've never tried it. You might want to look into cocoaasyncsocket if you do this.
I suppose to develop sms application(basically send\receive) using c# 4.0.In this i wish to use NOKIA 6630 phone as the GSM moderm.i have two problems here.
1)could any one tell me a better free sms gateway for this?
2)is nokia 6630 have gsm mordem?.
i m heavily appreciated with your answers.
Not sure what do you mean by free sms gateway here when you are using your phone.
6630 has a modem. So you can use it. If you can have PC suite (or Ovi suite) in your pc, you should visit these links:
http://www.emant.com/index.php?tid=681002
http://www.forum.nokia.com/info/sw.nokia.com/id/bd896b31-92ba-4624-aa9d-ebf732e7cc0d/Nokia_PC_Suite_Connectivity_API_1_1.html
If you do not want PC Suite and want to develop stand alone application, you need to send sms using AT command. You need to use the SerialPort class for this.
In order to use your phone as a GSM Modem connect to it as if you are connecting to a Serial Port. (There are drivers which adapt USB to Serial Port. Your phone drivers might do this).
Once you manage to connect to it you can send commands such as AT+CNMI (to receive) and AT+CMGS (to send).
You might want to connect via hyperterminal to try it out first before you program it.
A good tutorial is here.
You have one good choice to install one sms Gateway for eg. NowSMS gateway to send or receive messages. Its good one and all the related help for installation and configuration is given here http://www.nowsms.com/doc/installing-nowsms
But one problem you had while using this gateway for receiving messages you need to change your mobile phone as not supported this feature for nowsms gateway.
I want to write 2 programs with C# one work on PC, the other work on a windows mobile phone.
So I want the PC program to send a signal via Bluetooth ( 1 byte maybe) to the windows mobile phone. and the mobile program (which work on background) handles and accepts this byte without the need of pairing.
how to code this?
please I need any kind of help.
My library 32feet.NET should be useful...
Device Discovery can be done with BluetoothClient.DiscoverDevices, and sending data should be done with classes BluetoothClient and BluetoothListener, see the User Guide for more info.
If your phone can use Serial Bluetooth adapters (RFCOMM), you could send it using the serial class.
