Hi, so we are 5 people with the same number, but only one person can send and receive SMS at any given time. If another person wants to take over, he needs to use #133+ and is then the only person being able to send and receive.
Sadly, we must use SMS, and we need to continue to use the number we already have. The main problem we have, is that it is not possible to see all SMS in one place. Each of the 5 of us only got some SMS. We checked with a gateway provider, they could send SMS as E-Mail then and everyone could see those and reply by E-Mail which would be great, but they would have to assign us a new number, which is not an option.
Do you guys maybe have a good solution for me? I have seen Rest SMS Gateway on AKPPure which might be a solution but no update in 3 years and I cannot really find any further information about it. Thanks for any good tips.

I get alot of text messages from some people and my partner would like to be able to intercept those messages so he can have a copy of them on his Wizard. How would he go about doing that?
You want all you SMS messages forwarded to another phone?
think he want to set rules for which ones are forwarded
Your "partner" can't intercept them.. But you can do one of two things..
Either create a program intercepting all incoming SMS'es, always forwarding them to him. You could append the sender phonenumber in the body of the sms or something so he'll know who it is from..
The other thing you could do .. is write a client/server app, so when you get an sms, it's intercepted and posted to a homepage/server you have.. Your partner could have a clientversion which regurarly synchronizes the data from the server and adds them to the cemail.vol file.. making it seem that he ha got the sms aswell..
Another thing again .. you could just make another app which sends the incoming sms as an email to your partner.. Many ways to do this.. but he can not intercept them.. you have to forward them either as an SMS, Email or pure data via a server solution you code/develop...
"Either create a program intercepting all incoming SMS'es, always forwarding them to him. You could append the sender phonenumber in the body of the sms or something so he'll know who it is from.."
he can also make a program which only intercept sms's from a list of phone numbers or where surden texts or char's are present
but the program would need to run all the time and periodicly check for new sms's
i would like a program to reject sms messages or mms messages by phone number like i was able to do with my old phone.

I think I'll just go with the first suggestion. Thanks!
MOD EDIT:
this is obviously illegal.
lets move this discussion to the Q&A section

Hey all. Nearly 2 years have gone by since the last post in this thread and I know technology changes over time. I've done some reading about intercepting SMS/text messages but I was wondering if there are now any other ways to do this.
I want to be able to intercept text messages sent and received from one particular CDMA mobile phone number, or to have them forwarded to me without the person's knowledge. I don't have physical access to this person's phone, but if it helps I do have their ESN/MEID for their device.
I'm not so worried about intercepting phone calls or anything. I can get close enough to the user's phone though to be on the same cell tower as them if needed in order to intercept or have the SMS messages forwarded to me.
Are their any options for making this possible without direct access to this particular device? I understand the idea behind copying the identity of the target phone using a SIM card, but again, I don't have physical access to the phone in order to do that. Thanks!

Guys,
Isn't this illegal? You're literally asking to be the NSA or the government, snooping information without the person's information or consent?
Spying on a significant other?
Cheers.
good point. didn't read the last post.
So, Ive made an Android App called SMS Forward. It enables forwarding of SMS to either another phone number or an email. What would be cool is if I could somehow make it so that you could reply to text messages through email. For this to work I reckon I need to use some kind of SMS Gateway. I know there are solutions out there you have to pay for, which is fine.. Does anyone have any suggestions?
you have to check 2-WaySMS for sms sending/receiving
My app PhoneLeash (tinyurl.com/phoneleashfree) does SMS forwarding to email and SMS. Its possible to reply to incoming SMS from your email account, provided the Reply-To address is your phone's email-to-SMS address. The phone then sends out your reply, so no gateway needed, and it looks more natural to the recepient.
These email-SMS addresses are completely non-standard unfortunately so I had to create a database by hand, at least for US and Canadian carriers. And I can only hope they don't change too soon.
There are also some online services that help you determine who the carrier is for a phone number. You could use those and come up with a valid Reply-To based on the number of the incoming SMS (most of the time hopefully!)
Hope this helps, I know its been a while!
You're replying to an almost 6 year old thread, there have been many options introduced since this thread was created.

It is quite easy to find out the options in order to send bulk SMS to the audience. The real estate text marketing app that I am using is absolutely great. We are super impressed with the results. The interface is easy to understand. I am totally impressed with it. Would surely be suggesting this to others as well.
Hi all:
I am a developer for an app that forwards SMS (and other things) to an email address. Obviously it would be elegant to be able to reply to your SMS right from your email account, while the other side still sees your SMS in the normal way, and the app does exactly this.
But to get the reply back to the phone via email, we need the user to enter the email-to-SMS address as part of setup. You know, like [email protected] or @vtext.com. The app has a database for some countries and carriers but obviously its a drop in the bucket.
We are finding out that maybe not a lot of people know of such a feature on their phones, hence this poll! It'll help us try some other ideas, or implement this one differently.
Thanks!

PhoneLeash - free on Android Market
Rogers (in Canada) has this service.. but they charge us for it. So not many people actually have it.
Thanks to everyone who responded. As a result of the poll results, PhoneLeash now supports forwarding SMS (and missed calls, and location, and battery status) to another phone number via SMS. And replying back to these forwarded SMS' does not require an email-to-SMS feature. If you forward to a Google Voice number (or other PC-based SMS-capable services such as HeyWire, Pinger), you can use a PC, and enjoy a very nice feature set (see this review).
Thanks for the useful development for mobile users and internet users as well.
However, I'm already using this service with the help of third party i.e. TextMarketer.co.uk
Play (Poland) already has such a service. It is free for everyone. Polish speakers can check it here: http://www.blogplay.pl/2010/11/kopia-sms-na-email-beta/
Hello Forum.
I did a preliminary google search with no luck.
Is it possible to send an sms with a user set 'sent' date. So that I can send somebody an sms right now, but it shows up on their phone as having been sent a few days ago.
Sounds weird, I know, but I just want to know if its possible or if anyone has done it.
Probably not.
Afternoon everybody.
I am looking for a solution to Send and Receive text messages from a computer as a small business user.
We will be sending approx. 50 SMS a month just confirming order's are ready to be collected., I have noticed their is a 1p SMS Simcard we can use but I don't have any idea's how to connect this to a computer and what application I would use?
I would appreciate it, if somebody could shine some information on this and hopefully get me heading in the right direction.
Thank you .
Craig
As far as I know, there is an IM application which was developed and distributed by the carrier of my mobile phone. I can run it on my Windows PC to send SMS. But it's based on my mobile phone number. I am not sure whether we can send SMS aboard with this application. I have not this application installed on my PC now.
So I think you should contact your carrier to check whether there is any application some like this. Or your carrier may supply some API for you to develop some application by yourself. If then, perhaps you will have to pay for your application to send SMS.
