SMS Gaming , how to start with

[Nokia_Archive]

Does anyone have an idea as to whether the
format of picture message sent through a NOKIA handset for eg. 3310
is .NOL , .NGG or any other format. Actually I am trying to implement a game of chess on SMS, where one of the options for the user would
be to view the current status through a picture message and I want to make and send the picture message to the user playing the game.


Could someone guide me as to what are the things to be taken care of while writing an .Nol file and how to do so in any programing language for eg. Java or perl.

Pls. guide me as to how to start with this one.

Thanks,
Balaji Iyer

As far as I know you can't send picture message from web to phone. I've tried to connect directly to my mobile provider mail server and sent needed //SCLK sequence. My phone beeped several times like it was receiving message, then nothing happened. I've used friend's 6210 and repeated same sequence and he received that message. 3310 can't receive tunes, pictures and logos from noone except other phones as I understand.

Check the Smart Messaging FAQ. Questions 8 and 16.
