I need my computer program to be able to send and receive SMS messages. The software has to run independent of the Internet so using a web based SMS gateway is not the solution.
The software should be running from a linux or a Windows machine. Windows is more important for my usecase. My program is in Java but I guess there may be solutions independent of the programming language.
I am considering one of the following options.
Kannel http://www.kannel.org/ Although supported for Linux I guess I could find a way to compile it in windows like done here: http://www.ddj.co.za/kannel-for-windows
The other one seems a more lightweight option http://smsj.sourceforge.net/
Which of these or something else that you have in mind could be a better way of sending SMS via computer without an internet connection?
I am considering using these libraries so I don't have to program all the AT Commands.
Also how do I connect my phone to the computer? For example will it be fine if I just connect my phone with a USB cable when using kannel.
Update:
I need to use simple GSM phones and not depend on IOS or Android specific features.
Perhaps not want you needed or wanted, but maybe useful for others: When I had my iPhone jailbroken there was an Cydia app I used to send SMS from my computer through my phone, BiteSMS.
You had to ssh in and then something similar to:
/Applications/biteSMS.app/biteSMS -send -carrier 077xxxxxx “The message goes here”
Obviously you replace 077xxx with the number you want to send to.
It looks like it is fairly similar process with Android, check out this question on doing this through Android. Again this requires a ssh connection to the phone. Also have a google on 'Sending sms from commandline' there are other resources available.
As for other methods, I can't see any viable options without attaching a phone to your computer and accessing the OS and ssh seems the easiest way to do this.
Try smslib.org + some GSM modem.

I want to make a TeamSpeak 3 Musicbot in Java. But I don't find any Protocol from Teamspeak for the Voice transmission. And after searching for a Client API, for Java, I didn't find anything. Only for a ServerQuery but that doesn't help me I think.
I only want the Client to connect to the Server and then plays a Song, though that wouldn't be that hard!
Maybe you Guys can help me?
Teamspeak does not have an official client-api. You can only use the Query-API and create plugins. As the Query-API does not support any voice-communication, that's not the way you should go. The (most) official way of creating a Teamspeak3 MusicBot would be to run a client on your server which has a plugin installed which allows you to play music (more or less a soundboard). Sinusbot is exactly built this way.
Another "unofficial" option would be to make use of unofficial reverses of the teamspeak-protocol and built you own client from these. If you want more information about this, this repository might help you (and look for other projects the creator pushed, they might help you too).
I'm not quite sure if this helps, but have been developing a TeamSpeak 3 music bot using Kotlin, which is compatible with Java as it runs on the JVM (Java Virtual Machine)
The way it works is that it first launches the TeamSpeak client and connects to the desired server and channel, then it starts monitoring the chat log -> the bot can be controlled by entering commands into the chat.
The bot uses the TeamSpeak ClientQuery via Netcat to send messages to the chat.
It is completely client-side so you don't need to be server admin to get it working.
The bot currently supports Spotify, YouTube, and SoundCloud.

I have a program that is in C++ on a computer. I also have a Android app (Android version > 4.0). Both are communicating via TCP socket. The C++ program is the Server Socket, and the android app is the Client Socket.
Now, this works well if I tell my Android app what is the port and IP of the C++ server. I would like to be able to discover my C++ program from the Android device. After some research, I found that I could broadcast a message on the network from the C++ program that contains the IP and Port of the computer. Then my android program will listen to the broadcasting address until it listens to the server's broadcasting message.
I don't know how to do that in C++... Is is a good idea? If yes how can I do that? If not, what would be the better idea?
Thanks!
Getting client-server stuff working reliably can be quite challenging; there always seems to be one more edge-case that needs to be resolved. Rather than rebuilding the wheel, I recommend just using an existing library where someone else has already worked out all the kinks. I haven't used it yet, but the AllJoyn open-source project looks very promising.
I would like to connect my mobile phone in USB debugging mode and then send sms through some java code, so that the text is actually send through my cellphone using my provider sms plan. I am without any idea. I googled but could not get anything useful. Any idea, approach or link to some tutorial would be very helpful.
I'd suggest SMS lib for sending SMSs via your cell phone using Java code.
But if you are open to other ideas, I'd suggest to use a public webservice that sends in your place your SMSs, you can use for example nexmo, they have very good api and charges very cheap SMS. You have an initial credit for starting.
I want to write 2 Device Communication Servers for use with OpenGTS (Enterprise). Devices are Teltonika FM4200 and WirlessLinks Piccolo STX. can u give me a some tutorial or something useful. I still don't have idea on it.
Instead of DCS you can use Traccar server which already supports FM4200, the second device might already be supported as well, I just need some message examples to verify that. Configuration file to integrate two systems can be found here.
i heard that wol(wake on lan) will only work for desktop systems. is there any implementation in java for wol, so that it works for laptops?(wol is the mechanism of turning on the remote system by sending 'magic packet' to the system).and is there any implementation in java for android phones? i found a simple wol apps in android market, i tried to extract the functionality of these apps, by practically testing them. but no app is working for both desktop and laptop systems.i configured my windows pc, so that it allows magic packet to wake on the pc.but i dont know where its going wrong.
WOL is a BIOS setting that you will need to turn on on the individual machines (I think it is turned off by default). I don't think there is any reason that laptops cannot accept WOL packets.
Here is a simple implmentation of WOL for Java: http://www.jibble.org/wake-on-lan/
It should be easy to port it over to work on Android.
However, you have to note that WOL will only work within a LAN and that the target machines have to be in a specific power setting in order to allow them to turn on.
You have to be more specific. If your laptop is connected over WiFi then there are big chances that it won't work. If your laptop is connected over an Ethernet cable then most probably it will work. You just have to enable WOL from the BIOS, or on some devices it can be also done from the network interface properties.
I'm using WolOn Android app to wake a laptop connected over cable and it works flawlessly both on Windows and Ubuntu.
