"Hi Joel You're right - that module does allow you to schedule SMS. However, because we didn't develop it (and it's still in Beta, and therefore has a few reported bugs) we're unable to support it. So if you can get it working…"

"Hi Ana You need to have the "Delete messages" box ticked (see you screen shot) for messages to be removed from the SIM once FrontlineSMS has received them. The SIM is likely now full, which is why you cannot receive any new ones. Tick…"

hey kiwanja, thank you very much, i'll put the android work, how are you doing?

Ken,

I'm sure that is good guidance. My concern is that we might need a very large intervention and control group to study hypertension, if for example, only 70% had cell phones that could receive SMS, 50% volunteered to participate and there was a 30% attrition rate.

I assume we can batch SMS but I don't know about reverse billing using FrontlineSMS so the recipient would not be charged. Also, I have never attempted a study with SMS. If we ask their blood pressure results, I suppose they could respond with 120 80 or two text messages, one for systolic BP and one for diastolic BP. This is all exploratory so there are a lot of details we need to work out. Thanks for your help

Dear Ken,

I have finally installed the software. However I now need guidance on the following. How to attach a phone and a modem. How to save contact numbers and how to send these messages.

Hi Ken,

I am using FLSMS with my application in JSP. I am able to send an SMS writing via FLSMS using my jsp code. Now, I have set up a keyword, set an auto reply and an http request for it. The auto reply is sent and the http request shows a hit but the jsp page is not executed. Does anyone has any idea about this problem...?

 

Regards,

Rahul.

Hi Kiwanja,

 

I do plan to develop a stand alone application. All I needed to know is that after setting up the http trigger, what code I need to write in my application in order to connect with FrontLineSMS. I would also like to know whether I can use jsp or php for the application I want to build.

 

Regards,

Hi Kiwanja,

I am developing an application titled Ambition for students in Rural India. I need some help regarding the code I need to write in my application to connect to FrontLineSMS. Can I use FrontLineSMS to send and receive sms from my web site built in jsp. If yes, then what are the functions I need to call in my code to make it work. Can I find some sample code for this.
