You can use kannel to send/receive SMS with your phone but first you have to make your phone work as a modem on a Linux box, then configure kannel to use that device (AT SMSC section). To send MMS, you will need something else in addition to kannel. Mbuni could be used for that, but I see no activity about this project very long time, so you might have a problem compiling it on a modern Linux distribution. The way kannel works with mbuni: when mms is to be received, your device will receive MMS formatted WAP push SMS having a URL where to grab the MMS from. This SMS is passed to mbuni and mbuni fetches the content. Then it’s up to you to process that.
It’s a long way and it will take plenty of time. If you have it, it’s a challenge worth, you will deep learn the undelying technologies. Davor From: users [mailto:users-boun...@kannel.org] On Behalf Of Ron T Sent: Wednesday, April 11, 2018 12:13 AM To: users@kannel.org Subject: using kannel for sms/mms to and from computer to cell phone Question. I'm trying to send and receive sms and mms messages to and from my computer by going through my android phone. The phone would not be tethered to my computer. I know there are a few apps out there like mighty text that will allow a person to do this but I would like to create my own. I've read a little about smpp and smsc but am not sure if I need a server such as kannel if I'm only going to be sending and receiving from my own pc though my cell phone? I would also like to have my phone number be used on the send of sms/mms so the receiver will recognize who it is coming from.
