We are about to switch to a new forum software. Until then we have removed the registration on this forum.
I am trying to receive SMS messages in Processing. Already tried the smsP5 library but I can't get a compatible GSM modem - recent smartphones are not compatible, apparently. Also, I've tried OSCdroid - which is great in theory, it even has an option to send SMS through OSC -, but the app keeps crashing on my Samsung Galaxy SII (the app hasn't been updated in a while). Does anyone have any suggestions on this?
Thanks!

You could write a simple Android program that checks for SMS and forwards it to Processing in some way (OSC?). Would that work?
I ended up using an app called SMS Gateway Ultimate, for Android, which forwards SMS to a web URL. So I stored the messages in a database and made queries from Processing through PHP. But yeah, I suppose I could have written a software that forwards the messages through OSC - and supposedly, OSCdroid should do it, but as I've said, it simply does not work - but I had little time to have it all integrated and my lack of skills in Android development sure did not help.
Thanks, anyway!
Hey, does the smsP5 library still work for processing 2.2.1?! I try to add it with the library-adder tool and it's not there. I'm just looking for a simple way to receive and send text messages from Processing.
