android - Mobile device capacity for sending SMS -


suppose live in country don't have access smpp servers , typical sites sending sms (cardboardfish, bulksms, twilio, etc.) fail send sms in country (because don't have updated database of "numbers , carriers").

i wan't have device (with either ios, android or windows phone) notified (with push notifications web application) sending sms bundles (an array of {recipient, message})

my questions are:

  1. is feasible solution?
  2. will scale? 1 can put more devices when rate more x sms/min
  3. how many sms can mobile device send consecutively? can send example 500 consecutively?

it doable, though i'm not sure doing via smartphone app best solution - there may limits push notifications, app allowed in background, etc. example, wp apps' background tasks may not run if os thinks there's not enough resources (memory, cpu, etc.)

a more realistic solution hook gsm modem or ordinary dumbphone server , send messages through that. there opensource gateway software, kannel, can used make kind of connection, including aforementioned smpp , other protocol other gateways, few using devices directly. way there's less moving parts , don't know of software restrictions.

whether scale, different question. mobile operator cut off. also, 500 sms/sec. not work setup. smpp connections throughput limit lower, , meant setups large amounts of messages moved. consumer device perhaps may able technically push out messages operator throttle or drop messages.

one more thing, find weird none of larger sms gateways wouldn't work since of them hlr check countries have mobile number portability - is, check network phone belongs to, before sending anything.

most mobile operators provide direct connections them, whether via smpp or other protocol possible. whether it's cost effective @ amounts, different question.
