jSMS4Pi
jSMS4Pi is simple Java library which provides SMS API for USB 3G modems (3G dongles) or other serial port (RS232) modems. It provides abstraction for sent / received sms and other features. Communication with modem is done through AT commands. jSMS4Pi is ideal for small stand alone computers (as RaspberryPI) without internet connections. If you want to send a SMS through internet try any of Bulksms service.
How it works
USB 3G modem creates a virtual serial port after connecting to the computer. jSMS4Pi sends AT commands through serial port to the modem and reads the response.
Supported modems
jSMS4Pi is using JSSC as the serial port library and supports Win32(Win98-Win8), Win64, Linux(x86, x86-64, ARM), Solaris(x86, x86-64), Mac OS X 10.5 and higher(x86, x86-64, PPC, PPC64) See JSSC homepage. So far it is only tested for Linux OS (Debian) and on Raspberry Pi (Raspbian).
Supported OS
jSMS4Pi should support all modems which use (virtual) serial port (USB 3G modems, real serial port modems, cell phones, etc.). Exceptions are modems that implement incomplete AT command or do not comply with specifications. The set of tested devices will be periodically updated. For more information see section: Supported Modems
