Hi there
i have read ur question and u vl b surprised that instead of sending any solutions i m asking u the same question. i m also trying for the same thing as u r doing. what i have done is that i have developed a mail server and the person having registration in our mail server can mail each other. Now when any person is getting mail and if he is having a mobile then he will instantly get reported abt the mail. So plz do help me if u have find any code.
My email id is tailor_alpa@yahoo.com
Hoping and waiting for ur reply

Cheers...Happy chinese year in advance....
may i know what type of sms gateway u are using?
Hai guys ..Topic sounds interesting .....I wanna try that to......Can anybody give an explanation on how to achieve that...
In VB? you gotta be kidding!
To send SMS to mobile phone you cannot simply do it with "your own Code",
because SMS it's a resource inside the mobile network and the only way to
access it is by the means provided by the mobile operators (the network
owners).
most of them provide access trough web services, because it's a clean and
standard way that works throughout all platforms.
If you want "some other way" you can talk directly to the mobile operators
and ask them to provide you with SMPP access to the server, so you can send
messages from you code using SMPP instead of web services.
As posted by Letscode, you will have to use the SMPP server of the celular service provider. Depending on the country and the provider, it may be from easy to imposible to have them give you access to it. They may require a VPN connection to the computer making it happen. If you are going to use SMPP, you will need WinSock to create the connection and you will have to visit http://www.smsforum.net to learn SMPP. There yet is another way to do it. Read my next reply.
The other way, is by using a GSM modem. Brands are WaveCom Fastrack, Multitech and SonyEricson. The latest, called GM28 and distributed by www.toppcompanies.com is the one I found most reliable (I´ve tested the others).
If you go for a modem, you will have to use MSCOMM to communicate with the modem via Serial Port. The connection parameters will vary with each model. Then you will have to transmit AT commands to the modems to have them send and receive SMS.
To help you decide which method to use, read the next reply...
The SMPP option gives you these advantages and disadvantages:
- Massive amounts of SMS. Perfect for SMS spammers.
- Lower costs, depending whether your provider charges you for SMPP and how much.
- Providers rarely release access to SMPP to individuals. Sometimes not even companies.
The GSM Modem option gives you these other advantages:
- Freedom from the provider. Just insert the SIM and you are ready.
- It will handle (outgoing or incoming) only 1 message every 4.5 seconds.
Sample code... sorry is too much. But will gladly gide you to the pieces of the puzzle.
Oh.. and before I forget, there is also the posibility of ONLY Sending messages, by using PHP via HTTP. I know there is a way create your own internet explorer with vb, which I have not done yet. Therefore, all you need is to send the appropiate code to the URL provided by the carrier. For this, you will need to find out if your carrier allows SMS via HTTP, and if they will give you access to it. I have the PHP protocol needed for this somewhere. I´ll post it here later.
Well i can say i have done smething of this kind in VB before.U better go thru Hayes Commands which are used for sending and recieving SMS.
hye guys
Thers an easy way to send sms from ur .NET application
all u need is a web service that provides this,
well most of them are not for free, although u can use trial licences that let u send around 5 - 10 sms's for free
u can try out Stike Iron ( 10 sms free for trial licence)
http://ws.strikeiron.com/SMSTextMessaging?WSDL
just add the web reference to this wsdl from ur VS and thats as easy as it gets
Happy sms 'ing
PS: i have a sample application if anyone wants mail me:dharshan.ks@gmail.com
Cheers
Below is simple code:
Imports System.Web.Mail
.
.
.
Dim toPhoneNumber As String = "DestinationPhoneNumber";
Dim login As String = "YouredomainUsername"
Dim password As String = "YourPassword"
Dim compression As String = "Compression Option goes here "
Dim body As String = "Your Message"
Dim mail As System.Web.Mail.MailMessage = New System.Web.Mail.MailMessage
mail.To = toPhoneNumber + "@sms.domainname.com"
mail.From = login + "@domain.com"
mail.Subject = compression
mail.Body = body
mail.Fields.Add("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpauthenticate", "1")
mail.Fields.Add("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusername", login)
mail.Fields.Add("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendpassword", password)
System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "domain.com";
System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.Send(mail)
or u can find out on this link below:
http://www.ipipi.com/help/send_text_message_using_vb_net.htm
You can go to
http://www.emant.com/681002.page
where there is the free sms component emantsms and an example program.
There is one way to send for free without using an sms gateway but you have to know the carrier the person is on. You can then send an email. Most are in the form of mobilenumber@carrierssmsemail.tld For example verizon is mobilenumber@vtext.com and most major carriers have similar.
HI,

I found a link to a page showing how to send text messages in .NET. Its in C# instead of VB.NET, but it should still help. Plus, the web service being used, webservicex, is a free unlimited service, so that should definitely be worth taking a look at if you need a free SMS web service.
Here's the link:

hi, im new to vb.net and recently i am doing a web application on sending sms. anyone has got any codes for sending sms using vb.net?
or does anyone know where i can get relevant info for it.
I'm currently in the process of developing an VB.NET application that uses SMS. The absolute easiest way of doing this is to use an SMS gateway service such as ClickaTell to handle the actual bidirectional delivery. Using a gateway will allow you to deliver and recieve messages to/from many mobile networks and will greatly simplify your application development.
Hope this helps...

Yes you can send SMS from many mobile phones using your PC. But not all mobiles support that. You will have to check by connecting the mobile to your PC using its data cable and trying the command AT on it using hyper terminal.
There are many AT commands.
To send SMS you can can use
AT+CMGS=<number>
<message>ctrl+z
To read sms from inbox you can use
AT+CMGR=<address>
address is the location number, can be 1, 2... etc.
There are commands for almost everything you can do with the phone.
Before attempting this make sure that you are skillled in serial port programming.
Hello guyz...i need your advices for which method to use for sending SMS using .NET.
DO I USE THE SMPP (to access to the sever)?
or I USE THE WEB SERVICE PROVIDERS???
Thanks...
and for all the folks who want a piece of code...
Here's what ive done so far (i also need your feedbacks):
private void Send_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
try
{
SmsTest.com.webservicex.www.SendSMSWorld smsWorld =
new SmsTest.com.webservicex.www.SendSMSWorld();
smsWorld.sendSMS(txtEmailId.Text.Trim(),
txtCountryCode.Text.Trim(),
txtMobileNo.Text.Trim(), txtMessage.Text);
lblMessage.Visible = true;
lblMessage.Text="Message Send Succesfully";
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
lblMessage.Visible = true;
lblMessage.Text="Error in Sending message"+ex.ToString();
}
}THANKS. assaf.rawad@gmail.com
I'm using VB6.O for such an application.all u need is to know modem (phone) AT commands ,API's and a connection to your comp using either IrDA (infrared ) or a RS232 cable for the same.
hi there
for sending sms to mobiles first of all you must select a protocol like SMTP/SMPP/HTTP. and for more details log on to www.planetsourcecode.com

Hi,
There is some sample code for sending an SMS via VB.NET, if you go to SNIP, click "Custom Development", then "developers", it shows you how
Dan.
sending sms using vb.net can be done by using Nokia dll file or sony erricson dll file. al hand set companies provide this dll file which can b included in the .net project.
