Hi,
I would like to forward automatically Text messages.
A couples of years before, I was doing it easily with some FLOSS apps
But none of those apps (I keep the apk ;) ) works anymore on "recent" AOSP[^1] phone 🤨 ( Thanks to g**gle, to not take care of retro-compatibility )..
So, I lost time to dig for new apps (FLOSS and not)
- https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.pierreduchemin.smsforward/ The GUI is launching, but nothing happen.... not even an error message.
- https://apkpure.com/sms-forwarder/com.frzinapps.smsforward in addition do not be FLOSS it weight 70MB XD !!! , no thank you.
I'm willing to write a "Shell" script to run under Android, to just do that (I've never developed for Android, so if you have any advice I'm all ears )
or any other solution like
- Linux phone ROM ( without systemd )
- or maybe a simcard dongle, to allow my Linux computer to receive/send text ?

hoestly not the best advice but maybe just get an older android phone that can run those apps

You can use a raspberry pi with a GSM HAT
here is a super in depth blog that I used for reference when implementing this. https://projects-raspberry.com/call-text-using-raspberry-pi-gsm-module/
I have a very different GSM module that goes directly on the pi.

Thanks @HelloRoot@lemy.lol But I stop with raspberry pi..
But I found https://wammu.eu/python-gammu/ I just have to foud out if it could work with a USB-GSM-Modem, dongle and it should do the trick.

i haven't used it myself but https://jmp.chat/ looks good if you're OK with a US or Canadian number.
there is a lemmy community about it here: !sopranica@lemmy.ml.

Thanks @cypherpunks@lemmy.ml But I rather want something to run locally.

Maybe MAXS?
