i manage to send my temperature sensor data to Google Drive by using Arduino. I am currently stuck in sending message from arduino when my sensor hits a predefined value. I am able to send SMS from Google Drive by using Twilio and some codes to the script editor. By any chance, am i able to connect my Google Drive back to my arduino as i am using 2 different spreadsheets (one for the sensor data, and the other for SMS)
Thanks in advance.

I want to build a service of sms receiving online, so i got a sms gateway, gsm pool with 16 slots for sim cards.
I need it to be able to receive sms messages in multiple sim cards, for differente OTP services(Telegram, VK, FB), so every sim card should only receive one otp message at all, so i need various to make it work
Is there a way i can achieve it? Is there any software i can use?
There are several such websites that are using for receiving online OTP verification.
Here is the website I found helpful for me when sending and receiving SMS from different countries around the world https://anonymsms.com
Is there any way to still deliver sms message to Android/iPhone device in ordinary messages app, when device is outside of coverage area of cellular provider but has access, for example to WiFi internet?
Thank you
Regular SMS message can be sent/delivered only when phone is in radio coverage. However, some applications can show message as SMS following its own protocol over the internet.
Such example is iMessage (Iphones).
I believe this can be done. But it is not an easy.
You need to create an app and install it on the phone. This app should inject SMS into the ordinary message app (I am not completely sure this is possible on iPhone). The app should, using WiFi, get the information about the SMS from somewhere. Different companies like https://twilio.com or https://suresms.com have inbound SMS numbers. So, you send SMS to this "virtual" number, then an app will pickup the message and inject it into the phones ordinary app.
I cannot come up with a solution where the message is delivered to the SIM cards phone number when the sim-card is out of reach.
I'm trying to come up with a solution to this situation:
Imagine you are in an area and you do not have any cell phone service but you do have Wifi.
The ask is to have a user that only has data to be able to text a number (via iMessage) and get a confirmation code in return.
The first tool I thought would be necessary for this would be Twilio - but it seems like Twilio only sends over standard SMS.
Are there any other tools out there anyone have used that would work in this idea? Something similar to Twilio but only ran on data?

This is something you can only do as the phone provider or network provider (using Three in the UK allows me to make phone calls over wifi with no phone signal, for example).
The two things you can do is either build yourself a native application that you can send messages to using push notifications or send messages to existing native apps, like Messenger, Viber or Line.
I am creating a small VB project and I want to send some information through SMS. I tried to find solutions in here many threads but can get one.
I am using Huawei E1731 3G USB modem, which is capable of sending and receiving sms through its official software. How can i use the modem to send a fixed message to particular number by getting the number from text box in a form?
Hopefully you are using VB.NET and not VB6.
Here is a solution in C#.NET which you should easily be able to convert to VB.NET :

I'm taking shots in the dark here. I'd like to create a web service where eventually I send an SMS by using my own hardware. I'm not sure what I need in order to send an SMS myself. I don't want to use any of the existing SMS send services out there, I need to be able to send these SMS myself.
It looks like there's one opensource project in particular that deals with this, "Kannel":
http://www.kannel.org/
what I don't understand is, do I need to get a GSM modem to be able to send SMS? Do SMS gateways (like Kannel) eventually need to get to a GSM modem to send messages, or is there some other hardware you need to be able to actually send the messages?
Thanks
Just find an online SMS Gateway. These Gateway providers are your best bet since they have handled all the heavy lifting for you. Just utilize their API and you should be able to do whatever you want. Some of these gateways are free and some are not. I've included a short list below.

I'm sure there are a ton more, but this will get you started.
You always need a GSM modem to send the SMS unless you use a provider that handles this for you (but they usually want money for this).
If you want to setup your own Hardware infrastructure, you have to get GSM Modem, A Sim card and use it to send SMS.
Other option, which I recommend, is to use SMS getways and use
SMPP protocol
XML or HTTP Apis
In later, you dont have to create any infrastructure and the starting cost will be very low compared to GSM Modem. You can get up and running in a day.
Note : to reduce the SMS costs, you should choose different getways for different countries. In India you can easily find getways who provides SMS at merely 3 paise
You will have to download an API that handles the sending and recieving of messages for you. I once used this in one project where i had my GSM Phone connected to my computer thru one of the COM ports. Configured the API to communicate thru the COM Port to listen to any incoming text messages also send messages thru my GSM Phone. Here is a great link to the resources i used for that project. I hope this will help. http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/SMS.aspx
