I would like to develop an application for a project at my university which enables sending .JPG files to a mobile device in real time. 1) Can I use your product do to the same? 2) Can I do this on a UK mobile network, T-Mobile UK or Vodafone UK? 3) If answer to Question 2 is NO, which network would support this if possible? 4) Do you have a Java API for this? Please Help! | |||

1.) Yes. 2.) Vodafone UK and O2 UK are no problem. I am unsure about T-Mobile UK. There are problems sending to Orange UK because their MMS settings do not allow subscribers to receive messages from external MMSCs. The only way to get around this is to reconfigure the settings on the recipient mobile phones to allow external MMSC access. (Or, in our v5.0 release, which is currently in beta testing, it is possible to configure our gateway to submit MMS messages through a GPRS modem ... such that the message is sent through the operator MMSC, and then you can send to Orange subscribers without any problem. However, sending in this way costs more because you are charged the cost of sending this message as an MMS instead of the MMSC direct delivery model where you are only charged SMS costs.) 4.) Sorry, we don't have a Java API. But we have an HTTP-based API, so it is relatively simple to access from different languages. Basically you have to do an HTTP POST (or you can submit the message over an SMTP connection as well). Here are two links with some more information on the HTTP and SMTP approaches: http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/12/113.html http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/12/85.html -bn | |||

I would first like to thank you for replying to my message. Now I would like you to answer a simple question for me please. I am using Windows XP Professional as my OS. I use the broadband internet, hence I do not require a modem. I have a network in my house where we share internet using a router At the time of installation of nowsms I am asked about the connection type. 1)Which one is the right choice for my SMSC Connection Type? | |||

hi there | |||

Hi! I thought you I had a solution to my problem! Anyways, I am waiting for Mr.Bryce Norwood to help me out!  | |||

Hi Bryce! I am using the HTTP Connection to send SMS Messages. I am coming across the following problem. 1) When I try to send a SMS my message cannot be delivered? Whe I check the Event Log I am given the following error message. HTTPSMSC: Connection failed, HTTP Status Code = 302. Can you please help me ASAP! | |||

Hi Muzammil, Sorry for the delay getting back to you. It sounds like you're connecting to an HTTP SMSC, but what one is it? What is the URL that you're using? Assuming that it is an actual SMS service provider, I suspect there is a problem with the URL that you're using. Try putting the gateway into debug mode ... manually edit SMSGW.INI, and add Debug=Yes under the [SMSGW] section header. Then restart the service. Repeat your attempt to send a message ... and then e-mail the SMSDEBUG.LOG to nowsms@now.co.uk. -bn | |||

Hi Bryce! I was under wrong impression that I would get free access to SMSC using your software. I think I have to subscribe to one now. 1)Does nowsms provide SMSC? 2)If Yes? What are the charges? -Muz | |||
| Bryce Norwood - NowSMS Support |
Muz, Understood, it's a common misunderstanding. We don't provide an SMSC. We could probably make some money if we did, but our expertise is more on the software side than services. For testing, Clickatell is a pretty good option as they don't have any setup fees or minimums. Here's a link that explains how to configure NowSMS for use with the Clickatell service: http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/136.html#POST403 -bn | |||

To send SMS messages from a PC via software, you would need to either: 1.) Send messages via an SMS service provider. Typically this would require an account with an SMS service provider, and the provider would support one or more of the following protocols for submitting messages: HTTP, SMPP, UCP/EMI and/or CIMD2. 2.) Send messages via a GSM modem (or GSM phone with the appropriate cable that allows it to be used as a modem). The ETSI GSM 07.05 specification defines extended AT commands that are used to send/receive SMS messages via a GSM modem interface. -bn | |||

I wish to send java games from my PC to my Motorola T720i, which is on T-mobile. I have downloaded the games and on the sites it claims you can send them to your phone, but how? Sending images would also be very useful. PLEASE HELP SOMEONE! | |||
| Bryce Norwood - NowSMS Support |
Laurie, Generally speaking, if you want to get a Java game on to your phone, you need to download it via the browser on the mobile phone. Generally, Java games are stored in a file called a "java archive". It normally has a ".jar" file extension. If you store this file on a web server, and configure the web server to return a MIME type of "application/java-archive" for that file ... then you can download the file from the web server using the browser on the mobile phone. Sometimes you also encounter ".jad" files with Java apps. These are text files that include a pointer to the actual URL that contains the ".jar" file. If you want to configure a web server to allow a ".jad" file to be downloaded, then the web server needs to return the MIME content type of "text/vnd.sun.j2me.app-descriptor" for the ".jad" file. -bn | |||

The ETSI GSM 07.05 specification (available at http://www.etsi.org) documents the AT command for sending/receiving SMS messages via GSM modem. | |||

Hai All, I would like to know whether any Java API is available to send SMS from a PC Mobile connected setup from an application. Will it be possible to send to CDMA Mobiles... | |||
| Bryce Norwood - NowSMS Support Board Administrator Username: Bryce Post Number: 983 Registered: 10-2002 |
Murugesh, There may be some Java libraries that implement complete GSM modem handling entirely from the Java library. I don't have any info on any such libraries, so you would have to search the web for more information. I can explain how this works with our Now SMS/MMS Gateway software product (an evaluation copy of the product can be downloaded from this web site ... http://support.nowsms.com/discus is the home page). One ore more GSM modems can be connected to the PC running the gateway software, and the software can then send and receive SMS messages over the connected modem(s). What is a GSM modem? A "GSM Modem" takes a SIM card, just like a GSM phone. The SIM card holds your identity on the network, and you can put this card into any compatible device. (You ask about CDMA mobiles, and SIM cards don't exist in the CDMA environment, so the idea of a SIM card may be different to you.) When you're using a GSM modem, you are billed for the activity on the subscription associated with the modem. Many GSM phones have in-built modem functionality, so that you only need a serial or USB cable ... or in some cases infrared or bluetooth connection ... to connect it to the PC. You can send messages to CDMA mobiles through a GSM modem if the GSM carrier through which you are sending the messages has an interoperability agreement with the CDMA carrier that you wish to send messages to. (In other words, if you put the GSM SIM card into a phone, and you can send an SMS message via the phone to a recipient on the CDMA network, then you can do the same thing using the SIM card in a modem and sending SMS via software.) How do you send an SMS message via the Now SMS/MMS Gateway using Java? Well, you submit messages via an HTTP GET request, with URL formats explained at the following links: http://www.nowsms.com/documentation/ProductDocumentation/sending_messages/sendin g_text_messages.htm http://www.nowsms.com/documentation/ProductDocumentation/sending_messages/url_pa rameters_for_sending_messages.htm To generate an HTTP GET request from Java, you would use the java.net.URLConnection class (or one of the various HttpClient classes available for download on different internet sites). | |||

Get a bluetooth adapter for your PC (if you don't have one built-in), and use the Nokia PC Suite to transfer images. This seems to be the simplest approach for an individual. | |||
