I want to make an application that can send an SMS to person in another country.
I have heard that using an international SMS gateway is the best way to do it, and is cheap (possibly even free).
What is the best library for achieving this?
There are a couple of options:
1) Use a java library such as smslib, which allows direct communication with a mobile phone modem to send or receive messages.
2) Register with one of the SMS gateway providers such as Clickatell or csoft and use their supplied apis. I would start by looking at the HTTP api here and here.

I am building a messaging app.I found technology needed are MQTT or RabbitMQ. To me both seems doing the same thing in the same way (in terms of subscribing & publishing to a topic).
So basically what is the main difference between these two and what are the advantage of each on other?
That's not really a valid comparison, one is a protocol and the other is an implementation of that protocol
RabbitMQ is a message broker that supports multiple messaging protocols including MQTT, AMQP, STOMP via a plugin architecture

I'm writting an app that connects with external services (Facebook, Twitter, SMS service ...). Some of them charge money to send and receive messages.
How do I simulate those services for my functional testing? (Don't want to use the real thing, but simulate the protocol). Is there a generic tool for that (preferable opensource/free)?
The best solution depends on your product, but generally, if you don't want to actually use those services from your tests you should somehow replicate the response from those services.
For example you can send a test request only once to get a real response from the service and cache the whole response in a format which works for you, then write a simple Mock/Test Wrapper to use this cached response instead of actually communicating with the service.

I'm trying to build an Android application which runs a service.
The service needs to pass certain device information to a custom server and receive some from the server.
Currently I've chosen a simple socket programming and JSON objects to implement this.
Can anyone suggest a suitable library for implementing this communication?
I'm a newbie and foresee a number of complications in implementing this.

I want to send and receive sms using jsmpp (or maybe smslib). I can send sms and get delivery report for my sms. But I cannot receive sms from SMSC. I downloaded Java SMPP Client application for receiving sms, but it didn't help. I want to test this software with online smpp server, if it receives sms from online server I will know that there is problem in provider, which gives me smpp gateway. Thanks..
I don't think there is an online server you can use. However you can test your application locally by installing SMC simulator Here is a free one.

I need a Java API that i can use to receive and send SMS messages. I already know of SMSLIB, but am wondering if there is a better one out there.
What I found are the following links. They are simple sample code and only for sms receive and send from GSM modem via com port. Easy to modify and use them in own program. They are not like SMSLib(so many features but need a few third parties library and complex to use(at least for me)).
