Howto Send/Read SMSs using a GSM modem, AT+ commands and PHP
I need to send/read SMS with PHP. To do that, I need a GSM modem. There are few of them if we google a little bit. GSM modems are similar than normal modems. They’ve got a SIM card and we can do the same things we can do with a mobile phone, but using AT and AT+ commands programmatically. That’s means we can send (and read) SMSs and create scripts to perform those operations. Normally those kind of devices uses a serial interface. So we need to connect our PC/server with a serial cable to the device. That’s a problem. Modern PCs sometimes dont’t have serial ports. Modern GSM modems have a USB port, and even we can use serial/USB converters. I don’t like to connect directly those devices to the PC/server. They must be close. Serial/USB cables cannot be very long (2 or 3 meters). I prefer to connect those devices using serial/ethernet converters. Because of that I will create a dual library. The idea is enable the operations when device is connected via serial cable and also when it’s connected thought a serial/ethernet converter.
The idea is the following one: We are going to create a main class called Sms. It takes in the constructor (via dependency injection) the HTTP wrapper or the serial one (both with the same interface). That means our Sms class will work exactly in the same way with one interface or another.
Let’s start. First we’re going to create a Dummy Mock object, sharing the same interface than the others. The purpose of that is to test the main class (Sms.php)
<?php
class Sms_Dummy implements Sms_Interface
{
public function deviceOpen()
{
}
public function deviceClose()
{
}
public function sendMessage($msg)
{
}
public function readPort()
{
return array("OK", array());
}
private $_validOutputs = array();
public function setValidOutputs($validOutputs)
{
$this->_validOutputs = $validOutputs;
}
}
And we test the code:
<?php
require_once('Sms.php');
require_once('Sms/Interface.php');
require_once('Sms/Dummy.php');
$pin = 1234;
$serial = new Sms_Dummy;
if (Sms::factory($serial)->insertPin($pin)
->sendSMS(555987654, "test Hi")) {
echo "SMS sent\n";
} else {
echo "SMS not Sent\n";
}
It works. Our Sms class sends a fake sms using Sms_Dummy
Now we only need to create Sms_Serial and Sms_Http. For Sms_Serial I’ve use the great library (with a slight modifications) of Rémy Sanchez to read/write serial port in PHP (you can find it here). We can run it with a script similar than the Dummy one, thanks to dependency injection:
require_once('Sms.php');
require_once('Sms/Interface.php');
require_once('Sms/Serial.php');
$pin = 1234;
try {
$serial = new Sms_Serial;
$serial->deviceSet("/dev/ttyS0");
$serial->confBaudRate(9600);
$serial->confParity('none');
$serial->confCharacterLength(8);
$sms = Sms::factory($serial)->insertPin($pin);
if ($sms->sendSMS(555987654, "test Hi")) {
echo "SMS sent\n";
} else {
echo "Sent Error\n";
}
// Now read inbox
foreach ($sms->readInbox() as $in) {
echo"tlfn: {$in['tlfn']} date: {$in['date']} {$in['hour']}\n{$in['msg']}\n";
// now delete sms
if ($sms->deleteSms($in['id'])) {
echo "SMS Deleted\n";
}
}
} catch (Exception $e) {
switch ($e->getCode()) {
case Sms::EXCEPTION_NO_PIN:
echo "PIN Not set\n";
break;
case Sms::EXCEPTION_PIN_ERROR:
echo "PIN Incorrect\n";
break;
case Sms::EXCEPTION_SERVICE_NOT_IMPLEMENTED:
echo "Service Not implemented\n";
break;
default:
echo $e->getMessage();
}
}
And finaly the Http one. As you can see the the script is the same than the Serial one. the only difference is the class passed to the constructor of the Sms class:
<?php
require_once('Sms.php');
require_once('Sms/Interface.php');
require_once('Sms/Http.php');
$serialEternetConverterIP = '192.168.1.10';
$serialEternetConverterPort = 1113;
$pin = 1234;
try {
$sms = Sms::factory(new Sms_Http($serialEternetConverterIP, $serialEternetConverterPort));
$sms->insertPin($pin);
if ($sms->sendSMS(555987654, "test Hi")) {
echo "SMS Sent\n";
} else {
echo "Sent Error\n";
}
// Now read inbox
foreach ($sms->readInbox() as $in) {
echo"tlfn: {$in['tlfn']} date: {$in['date']} {$in['hour']}\n{$in['msg']}\n";
// now delete sms
if ($sms->deleteSms($in['id'])) {
echo "SMS Deleted\n";
}
}
} catch (Exception $e) {
switch ($e->getCode()) {
case Sms::EXCEPTION_NO_PIN:
echo "PIN Not set\n";
break;
case Sms::EXCEPTION_PIN_ERROR:
echo "PIN Incorrect\n";
break;
case Sms::EXCEPTION_SERVICE_NOT_IMPLEMENTED:
echo "Service Not implemented\n";
break;
default:
echo $e->getMessage();
}
}
Serial/Ethernet converters normally have different operational modes. They allow you to create a fake serial port on your PC and work exactly in the same way than if you have your device connected with a serial cable. I don’t like this operation mode. I prefer to use the TCP server mode. With the TCP server mode I can read/write from the serial device with the standard socket functions. So if you dive into Sms_Http class you will find TCP socket’s functions.
And finally I will do a brief excerpt of AT+ commands used to send /read SMSs:
AT+CPIN?\r : checks if SIM has the pin code. It answers +CPIN: READY or +CPIN: SIM PIN if we need to insert the pin number
AT+CMGS=”[number]”\r[text]Control-Z : to send a SMS (in php we have Control-Z with chr(26)). It returns OK or ERROR
AT+CMGF=1\r: set the device to operate in SMS text mode (0=PDU mode and 1=text mode). Returns OK.
AT+CMGL=\”ALL”\r read all the sms stored in the device. We also can use “REC UNREAD” Instead of “ALL”.
AT+CMGD=[ID]\r: Deletes a SMS from the device

hi, i don’t checked it but if it workin that is very good idea!!:) thanks for sharing
It works, indeed
(I use it) The serial version works only in Linux, but the http version should work in windows too (I don’t use Windows so I cannot test it).
Hi GOnzalo? What if i have windows, not linux, what must i write instead “/dev/ttyS0″ and i have usb stick not serial device? thanks…pls write me back…szokasos@gmail.com
As I said before I’m not Windows user, so I cannot test it. The original library works with ws (you can see the link in the post), but I removed the windows support because I will not use it. MAybe you can hack a little bit an add the windows support. Anyway I recommend the HTTP interface (with a serial-ethernet adapter) that works with any OS
When I found a little time I’ll testing it (and let you know), I use linux too:) thanks again;)
Nice tuto. Someday I will try.
Do you recommend any specific modem or serial-ethernet converter?
Thank you very much.
Marcos
Brazil
I normally use this one http://goo.gl/7dJBk (modem) and converters from different vendors. Normally http://goo.gl/NScly
Thank you Gonzalo.
I am trying to develop a php system (with google maps) that will receive SMS messagens from a GPS tracker.
For now I am gathering all necessary information.
Let me explain my idea:
- make a server (with this GSM modem you recomended) that receive data from all trackers we have.
- using php, show that information trought our intranet.
What do you thing about the idea?
I know there must be something similar, but if I can not pay, I can try.
Do you have any recomendation?
Ps.: your name seems to be something latin.
Best regards from Brazil
Marcos
Thanks for the source code!
I was looking for something like this.
I just want to get home to test it.
Thanks again!
Great! I hope it will be useful
Hi Gonzalo, great piece of work here!
I am going to test it this evening, so I will return here posting my observations.
Have you ever considered releasing it under GPL license and build a more complex software around it? Maybe even a ncurses UI, not to tell about GTK.
But enough with dreaming, I’ll come back with further comments.
Thanks and keep up the good work!
It will be cool it this library helps you in your instalation.
I’m not a licence expert. If it’s necesary to change it to create open source projects it will be changed. My aim is to share the code with the community (in fact it’s based to an open source library).
can u tell me how to implement this on windows environment?
If you use the serial-ethernet conversor, the script probably work as-is on Windows environment (not sure, not tested), but if you connect the GSM moden with the serial port, have a look to the original class http://www.phpclasses.org/package/3679-PHP-Communicate-with-a-serial-port.html. As I can read, it works with windows. Anyway I didn’t test it. My Sms_Serial class is almost identical than original one. Without windows support and with slight differences when reading the serial port.
Actually i alreay used the the php class u mentioned.
When i use the class, (i also used the fopen() function to open the communication port on windows) , first it god connected for both read and write operation.
But when i sent the AT command using fwrite the modem got hanged and when i restarted the modem, i got error “Cannot open the port. Access Denied.”
I am not sure what the problem is but its not letting me to do any thing except opening the port.
Might be u know anything regarding this?
Your help is greatly appriciated.
Regards,
Rajendra Pondel.
“Cannot open the port. Access Denied.” means your script is still using the port. This’s probably because is trying to read the buffer from the serial port. I changed the original serial class because a similar issue. If you see the differences between the original one and my version, the read function is different (y read one byte instead to waiting to end of the line). Try to echo the buffer to see if you read text from sms (check the leds of the modem to see it it’s sending data to)
I’m using the testHTTP.php example on my nport Moxa serial/ip unit.
It works perfect!
Additional question :
How to receive or send concatenated messages? As I’m seeeing long sms is not shown well in the screen. I see strange signs and messages are splitted …
Thx for the help!
Regards,
Jaan Colman
Btw, for example :
[msg] => ‚@oH. @In Belgie gelden de volgende tarieven: bellen naar NL en binnen EU 51ct p/m. Gebeld worden altijd 23ct p/m.112 is gratis. Sms is 13ct, sms ontvangen is g
[msg] => ‚@oH.@ratis! Goede reis, KPN. Geen tarief berichten meer ontvangen bij de grens? SMS ‘INFO UIT’ naar 1330.
In fact the original message needs to be :
Hi! In Belgie gelden de volgende tarieven : bellen naar NL en binnen EU 51ct p/m. Gebeld worden altijd 23ct p/m. 112 is gratis. Sms is 13ct, sms ontvangen is gratis! Goede reis, KPN etc …
I see in the beginning of both messages strange signs …
Thx!
AFAIK if you want to send concatenated sms you need to do it in an extra layer Check the length and split the mesage into separeted sms before send it to the modem.
Take care with non ascii strings. gsm modems work with gsm encoding (not the same than utf8) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GSM_03.38. I normally send ascii sms, I’m not sure how to encode text to gsm encoding with php. I’ve looking for any solution in google and stack overflow and I didn’t find a good solution. But I think your problems are because this issue
Hi,
It must be perfectly possible to encode/decode a pdu string in php …
I’m finding that out now and coming back to this …
Thx for tip!
Regards,
Jaan Colman
hi, My Sim does not have PIN, if i m putting $PIN=”"; it says PIN Incorrect, what should i do ??
Problably will work without pin. I can test it with a real modem now. You need to put:
$sms->insertPin(null); or $sms->insertPin(”);
In windows the http.php is not working please help me…
I have downloaded a new http.php file from
Coming Soon Live
This file shows pin invalid.
Sorry. But as I said in previous comments I haven’t any windows system to test it. You need to hack Sms_Serial class to enable windows support. I normally use Ethernet converters and linux.
Ok. Can you help me to hack Sms_Serial_class to enable windows support?
Waiting for your reply !!!
I’m afraid I cannot help you with windows. As I said in a previous comment have a look to the original class http://www.phpclasses.org/package/3679-PHP-Communicate-with-a-serial-port.html. As I can read, it works with windows. You will see Sms_Serial is very similar to the original one. I drop windows support (I cannot test it) and I also change a little bit the original way to read from the serial port because the original one doesn’t work with my devices (I don’t really know why)
“Service Not implemented”
what does it mean?
chears
Bruno
see https://github.com/gonzalo123/gam-sms/blob/master/Sms.php line 37. It means you are not using any of the available wrappers (Sms_Serial, Sms_Http, Sms_Dummy)
PIN INCORRECT. how can i deactivate PIN AUTH? please help me Gonzalo! really i need heeelp!!!
If your SIM card doesn’t have a PIN you can use:
$sms->insertPin(null); or $sms->insertPin(”);
as I explain in a previous comment. If not you must be sure that you are using the right PIN number. Extract the SIM card and try to use with phone.
Anyway I’m not sure what you mean with PIN AUTH
tnks for reply. erm. im tryin to use the php sms class. but, theres a part of code that gives a IN AUTHENTICATION. i get the PIN INCORRECT. althought the pin that i’ve configured its OK. the right one. can u help me erasing the part of PIN nUMBER authentication?
please giv me your mobile phone number.
tnks a lot.
github repo modified, adding debug flag (check last commit). Now you can add an extra parameter called $debug (bool) to see the each output of the communication with the modem.
As I can see that’s seems it’s not a problem within the auth part in the script. If the device has a pin number you need to send the pin in the script.
It seems a promen in the serial port configuration, not with the pin. The script throws an exception the first time the script connect to the gsm device. I cannot affirm what the problem. I assume you’re using a linux box (remember windows is not supported) and using the serial interface (not the http interface). Is the serial port well configured (baudrate, parity, …)? Try to use minicom to speak with the gsm device first. It must work properly.
Anyway you can change the script in your local copy to fit to your requirements if you want
does this work on any network as long as we have the GSM modem device and the codes? what else are the requrements?
I use this script with a GSM device connected to the a serial ethernet converter over a LAN. You can connect the GSM device to the server (without using the serlal converter), but I preffer using serial converter, because normally I’ve got problems with free serial port on servers and the longitude of the serial cable.
can you use 3G modem with the same code?
Good question. All my devices are GSM devices. AFAIK 3g and gsm devices uses the same AT+ commands to send SMSs, so it must work with a 3g modem too.
best
Hi Can you teach me, how do I connect RFID with PHP. In order to read data from RFID Reader in realtime
IT depends on the device. It it has a serial interface you can use the same technique, ¿Do you have more information about the RFID reader?
Hello…
Thanks for your script , really nice.
One question here , can I skip the insert pin function?
Because I set crontab will automatically refresh the script every selected minutes , but sometimes it will have PIN incorrect problem and stop execute.
Thank you so much.
I don’t understand your problem. I use this script in a crontab indeed. If you check the source code you will see that the first thing I check is if the PIN is OK. If not, I insert the PIN.
If you skip this the pin your script will fails if you restart the modem.
Anyway you can skip the insert of the pin without problems or even use it wtihout pin code (if you set up your device with no-pin, of course)
Thanks for your reply.
I set crontab to load the script every 10 minutes , for the 1st or 2nd 10 minutes it works very well , after that it will stop execute . I not sure what’s the problem so I try to refresh it myself using firefox , and sometimes it will show me PIN INCORRECT.
PS:I have a script which can send long separate sms in PDU form,I wish to add this in your script but not really know how . Wonder is it possible to show you the script and have a small discussion?
Thanks you so much.
m using this code with GSM MODEM
i can send email to any number
but m unable to read messages from sim
m using
readInbox($mode=self::ALL)
public function readInbox($mode=self::ALL)
{
$inbox = $return = array();
if ($this->_pinOK) {
$this->deviceOpen();
$this->sendMessage(“AT+CMGF=1\r”);
$out = $this->readPort();
if ($out == ‘OK’) {$this->sendMessage(“AT+CMGL=\”{$mode}\”\r”);
$inbox = $this->readPort(true);
}
i was trying to check
print_r($inbox);
it gives me output of
Array
(
[0] =>
[1] =>
[2] =>
[3] => OK
)
pleas help me . ma work is completely stuck .
Try to read SMSs without the script. Use minicom (linux) or hyperterminal (Windows). Use the same commands:
AT+CMGF=1
AT+CMGL=”ALL”\r
not working m already using AT+CMGF=1
AT+CMGL=”ALL”\r
even i disconnect the serial cable it dosent give me any error
Hello.Can I know is it okay to set device every time when I need to send message?
or just need to set for once?Will it cause any problem to modem if I send a lot sms and set device every time in my script? Thanks.
It works fine, but if you are going to send big amount (a really big one) of SMSs you probably will need a dedicated server. Your server load will be increased too much. As far as I know we can use libevent extension with PHP but when I need to do this kind of things I prefer to use python or nowadays node.js
Thanks for your reply.
Yes I do have a dedicated server for sending sms , and I just simply use while loop to send messages.(about few thousands or even more through 12 ports.)To avoid each port from having too high traffic so I just set them to send few(about 6 messages) within a minute. But sometimes some of my modem’s ports will no longer working , it can’t detect SIM or even can detect but can’t send any sms , I’m wondering is it because sending too much sms causing the ports fried or modem quality problem? I even thought is because I set device too often causing the problem…
I’m so sorry for this non-related topic here,I really can’t find anyone to answer me since no one really know GSM modem..
Anyway still thanks again.
My experience using serial ports is really bad. I had issues similar than yours. I also had problems finding servers with more than one serial port, usb2serial converters, … Because of that, now I always use ethernet converters. They are better to scale.
hey..
I need your help..maybe u can help me..
I’m making an SMS application for Android which will send it’s location in the SMS content.. I mean the SMS message will just fill with the androids’ latitude & longitude that I got from the androids’ GPS..
the SMS will received in a GSM modem in my laptop..
on the other hand, I made my own map using google APIs V3 fill with some police station markers..
I wanna show the SMS content (lat & long) on the map so the user will know the shortest path to the police station, but I don’t know how to do it..
can u help me?
I’m sorry for my poor English..
I don’t understand your problem. If you want to send sms from android maybe you’ll need to use it’s own API (I’m not an android expert). Anyway, are you sure you need SMS? you can do it using simple http connections (cheaper). Fetch the GPS data from the android API and send as a rest webservice to your server (a simple web server)
You can use my script at your server side to read SMSs
Hi, Gonzalo Ayuso, thanks for your smart script. I tried to use the script on windows with my HTC HD mini mobile phone but when i run the script (testHttp.php) this error message appears—> “SOCKET ERROR”. I have noticed several times in your replies , that you didn’t test the script on windows but still do you have any idea why I am getting the error message?
I plugged in my HTC HD mini phone to my USB port and then I run the testHttp.php from my localhost. I am a newbie to PHP so please kindly overlook my ignorance.
Thanks in Advance
You cannot use this script with a mobile phone. You need a GSM/3G modem with a AT+ serial interface. I normally use this one: http://kcy.me/6lu2
I am a ubuntu user .
Now
I want to use this script by usb port.
How can i do that.
If your GSM device has a usb you can use it without problems. See what port are you using. You can see the port easily:
unplug the device
tail -f /var/log/messages (or syslog path)
plug the usb
you will see the port in the log
You also can use usb/serial converters
Thank you .
My usb modem is brand

Hi Gonzalo,
Great Piece of work , I have a 16 port modem connected to Windows PC via USB Serial Converter. I have some questions regarding your script.
1. Should I run the script on the same windows PC ?
2. If I run the script from a network attached PC where do I mention the COM Ports
3. I have a dedicated IP on the system which has the 16 port pool , how can I connect via PHP on another server ?
Thanks for the help in advance
I use the serial-ethernet converter to conect my serial devices to a server (located inside a data center). If you use this configuration you don’t need to connect the modem to a PC. You modem is now a network device. You don’t need to mention the COM port
Hi Gonzalo,
Is this code still working on your system ? Also want to know if you are still using the same 2 devices as below as we are also planning to implement sms system
http://www.gprsmodems.co.uk/acatalog/Sierra_Wireless_Airlink_FXT_Series_programmable_gateways.html
http://www.moxa.com/product/ME61.htm
Thanks,
Adam
Yes. I still use this code. The Modem is the same than the moden I’m using (couple of years ago it wans named Wavecom, but now AFAIK Sierra bought Wavecom and the device has differnt name). I use also moxa converter, but your model isn’t a serial ethernet converter. It’s a Fiber- ethernet converter. Have a look to this one: http://www.moxa.com/product/NPort_5110.htm
I want to use it on Windows So What kind of changes I have to make. I am running testhttp.php but its showing a message like “SOCKET ERROR”.
As you can read in the post, the script is only for linux. I’m not a windows user so I cannot test it. maybe you can try with the original library (where my scrip came from: http://www.phpclasses.org/package/3679-PHP-Communicate-with-a-serial-port.html). It supports windows. I removed this functionality because I cannot check it.
Hi, I’m designing a website for blood donors in which i want to send sms from website to mobile. Please tell me the code and which server i need to run php. now I have wamp installed will it work on it? I have a trial gateway Nowsms i run that sing its port number localhost:8800 it shows its home page from where i can send msg to intended mobile number but i want to send it from a html page so plz give me all detail with code and where to store it and what changes in ip address,port etc i need to change in code plz i need it urgent. I have no idea about PHP so need little more explanation where to store and how to run on server and all plz
If you are using a SMS gateway you need something different than this post. You need to build a http client according with the documentation of your gateway. You need to ensure that it allows you to automate sents via API or something like that. You don’t need PHP to do that. You can use the backend languaje of your website
could you pls provide me a form using this code in php?? do i need an sms gateway?? do u have a video demo for this?? i am a student so i need a lot of comprehension about this.. thank you!!
You can see the usage examples within the post. You don’t need a gateway. You need a real GSM modem (you can see the model of the modem that I use in the post too)
Hey Gonzalo. First let me congratulate you for the help and the contribution that you are giving to people. I´m Sylvestre from Brazil. I´m now in the PHP world but I´m really enjoying it. I want to use SMS for my project, and I need an help. First for receiving and sending sms, with your experience, what can you suggested between using a SMS GSM modem, or Use the mobile phone as a gateway? According to the volume of sms to be sent and received. It about to receive around 50 thousands SMS and sent around 100 thousands. Do you have any tutorial about each case where I can see the implemented code for the PHP? I will really appreciate your reply.
If you don’t have enough budget you can use one old phone as modem (if it allows to use the modem in one way or another) but if you need to build more robust system I recommend to buy a modem.
According with the amount of sms (I don’t know if you are speaking about per day/hour/month …)., you must realize that send one sms whiting a modem is not very fast (1 second or even more), so if you plan to send big amount of SMS maybe you need to think in a cluster of modems to send SMS in parallel. But maybe it’s better to speak with your sms provider. They usually have a API or service to send SMSs directly without using a modem. They also offer discounts per sms if you work big amount of messages.
sir?? will this work in windows??? if yes, whats the first thing to do??? can i use a GSM modem made by huawei?? thanks again…
hello sir… where are the html tags or the design of the form?? how is it look alike
The script doesn’t have one Web interface. It’s built as a Command line interface script.
Sorry as I told before the script doesn’t work in windows. The original class (in which serial interface is based on) yes, but I’m not windows user so I remove it (I cannot test it)
By the other hand if the device has a serial interface and you can send AT+ commands it should work propertly.
sir, may i ask a question… how to run my vb.net application in a web browser/php???
thanks a lot
Hi
Great post. Thanks for taking the time to post this.
I would like to discuss a USSD command project i have if you are interested. Please leave me email me on delu2011@hotmail.co.uk
Thanks
Sorry if this out of topic, Can this script be modified to be able to invoke USSD command by GSM modem? Please help.
I don’t really know what USSD is (I Know This, Because
TylerWikipedia Knows). BTW This library is a wrapper to send AT+ commads through a serial interface. If your USSD device has a serial interface (and one protocol similar than AT+) it should be possible to adapt it.Dear sir;
Before opening any port or running PHP script. Is it necessary to connect USB to serial converter with laptop USB port?
If yes then is it necessary to connect GSM MODEM at other side before running code?
you need to be able to speak with the modem. If your modem is a serial device you need to connect to your serial port (modern laptops don’t have serial port). In this case you need a serial-usb converter. I’ve had bad experiences with serial-usb converters, because of that I preffer to use serial2ethernet converters (they also give me more flexibility). Modern modems has also USB interface
Thanks Gonzalo but I’m having some trouble. I can read messages and delete messages on the modem fine but my modem isn’t sending SMS messages. The script seems to hang when I send a message, other times I do not get the +CMGS response back — just an OK. Any ideas?
Would using ttyHS0/HS1 instead of ttyS0/S1 be a cause? I can’t use S0 to with my modem
You need to use the proper tty in your installation. You can see what interface are you using inspecting the /var/log/messages (or /var/log/syslog in ubuntu) when you plug and unplug your device. Either way if you can read messages I suppose that you are using the correct tty.
Is your device AT+ or OPEN AT+. Modern modems are OPEN AT, and the protocol is a bit different. I need to upgrade the library to support OPEN AT. The only difference that I faced is the way of sending messages in text mode: AT+CMGS=”[number]”\r[text]Control-Z is not the way. Now we need to use:
AT+CMGS=”[number]”\n
then the device sends the string “>” and when it’s sent we can send:
[text]Control-Z
I need to change a little bit the function sendSMS in class Sms (line 120)
Thanks Gonzalo, Will give it a practical try in the next week
Favorited on github.
i want to store sms in to mysql database then what to do for it?
You can do it but it’s out of the scope or this post. Read the sms and save into database
Hello Gonzalo,
Firstly I would like to thank you for your entire blog and just a general thank you to open source developers like yourself for the time you devote to helping people.
I found this blog linked from the original php serial class ramsey posted and have read this blog post through from top to bottom and it’s a coincidence that jalpa asked this question as I believe it is pretty much exactly what I will eventually need to do but seeing as you say it’s outside the scope of this post, could you please fire me a quick email as I would love to get your help and opinion on a few things related to this post.
Thanks
but how i can save it?
