the problem is, we don't know where to start in doing such apps... and we are looking for someone who can and understand it, we think it's a simple one....

~BUMP!!! 2x~

hmm wat u mean don't know where to start ?
have to start ur research didn;t u ?

group final year project?? not individual??

can you please explain more what you want in the sms application?

it's not mine actually, it's for my good friend lar...

it is a system for a futsal turf. the sms application will function as a booking platform for those who are interested in playing at the turf. this sms application will be integrated with php programming. we have no knowledge or what so ever in the development of this sms application.

p.s; we did our research, but this sms apps has juz been added by the supervisor to make the scope bigger...

hope my explanation helps, thank you...

1. buy GSM modem and add in SIM card, and code from there
2. use a gateway, required payment, may cost like 10cent in USD per message, code is easier, they would provide code to interface with them, usually they sell you a set of like 100 messages, or prepaid model,
3. use existing phone as modem, code something to talk to the phone, similiar to option 1,

mitodna

yup all is true but the 10cent in USD u can get it 13cents in RM ler
can get cheaper even if u get more message

Do you need to follow everything your lecturer tells you? Tell him that SMS incurs too much cost and isn't feasible for a toy project like this. Offer to change it to email notifications. The end result is the same - customers are notified of events.

Unless of course his Uni is willing to pay and provide for the services and hardware required. A GSM modem can cost hundreds IIRC, so yeah.

I dabbled in such a project during internship before, although I didn't get to touch the SMS part of the system, it works like this:

Customer puts request in the web module, which is stored in a DB. SMS part of the system polls the DB regularly and sends out queued SMSes with a GSM modem with a prepaid sim card. Try to figure out the API for the GSM modem and it should be pretty straight forward.

yup agreed ... and email notification is very simple and easy and feasible also

hi, all, thanx for all the support for this thread, already met w/ someone who are interested in doing it... TQ all.... really appreciate it... thanx again guys...!!! >:D<

yup...i having experience of doing that.....trust me the cost of it is not cheap

nope , i did it last time

get a gsm phone (can act as modem)
usb cable connect to your pc/laptop


then the sms goes in ur phone to the pc
pc process, send back to the phone and the phone reply

in this case ;p u r not using any gateway
just sms to ur phone number

make sure ur phone has credit when u present ur project
hahaha

last time during my presentation
the sms reply fail

lol the phone inbox is full

ohh u using ur mobile ar? using shortcode here
