Can anyone please recommend to me some documentation about the system design for a process that sends picture messages and ringtones to mobile devices?

i.e. with wap enabled phones, you save a .wbmp file to your server, define the wap mime types to your server, configure the phone settings, write the wml page file path on your server to the phone's homepage and you can browse the picture.

But I want to know how to send picture messages using SMS.
Any documentation that illustrates the design will be highly appreciated. (I read the SMS spec, although it gives very valuable info that I will need to use, it does not suggest how to design the entire process)

Regards

But the Smart Messaging FAQ and the Smart Messaging specification 3.0.0 does not tell us how to encode the image,I program with php,and use the function bin2hex,as a result,it display on the mobile not the same as itself,yet the example provided by the Smart Messaging FAQ display well

thanks

Smart Messaging specification 3.0.0 describes how those messages
are implemented. Also Smart Messaging FAQ gives you valuable
information and examples.

You can either implement sms network service using CIMD interface
in case of Nokia's SC or then you can make an application to PC
using the phone as modem using SMS AT-commands
(GSM specification 07.05) or Nokia Connectivity SDK, SMS application
to phone is also possible in Symbian phones...

Hi,

If you are using Nokia SMSC you will be using SMSC's CIMD interface.
Please study more about CIMD from Forum Nokia's CIMD pages
(www.forum.nokia.com -> Technologies -> Messaging -> CIMD ->
Documents). CIMD interface specification gives you a lot information.
Please study also other documents and CIMD FAQ.

Please find an example below how to send picture message using CIMD below (this example is from Smart Messaging FAQ 16. How can I encode Picture message user data (8-bit).
The example includes a picture and text "Test"

------------------------------------------------------------
Example on sending a picture+text as a concatenate message (two SMSs). Header needs to be defined as header and the DCS is 245:
(032:xxxxxx and 034:XXXX and 030:245)
