from the discussion at http://groups.drupal.org/node/19195 schock is working on a project on http://vozmob.net we could have a potential module that will enable registration of users by text messages (SMS). This will enhance the drupal's mobile integration. the module code is found at http://github.com/mfb/vozmob/blob/3cd2e645e63192e174a7710bdeb3000c26b44e...

Not only is that link
Not only is that link broken, but the actual github repository is missing quite a few files. I would love it if this module was released properly.
sms registration working
Hi Stevik, Kaerast,
We now successfully tested user registration via sms and mms at sandbox.vozmob.net. We need to do another round of testing before we put it into production on our live site, vozmob.net. Maybe you guys would be interesting in testing w/us?
As for releasing it as a module, we would love to see that happen but we are trying to figure out the best strategy for getting all of the sms and mms functionality we're developing into wider use. For example, some things might be best included in existing modules, sms framework esp. But we're open to suggestions and of course very happy if any other developers want to take up some of our code and maintain a separate module w/it.
Here's where we are tracking development of mobile registration for vozmob:
http://dev.vozmob.net/issues/138
When an unregistered user sends an sms or mms, they get a message back like 'hi, thanks for your story. If you'd like a vozmob account please reply with the username you'd like.'
Then if the user replies, we register them and send a random password for them to login and claim their blog.
Oh yeah, we also made an admin interface where the site admin can set messages for the registration dialogue with the user.
For help installing this, please login to irc://freenode/vozmob and ping mfb.
Thanks!
working now
SMS registration now works and has been tested.
Here's the code: http://github.com/mfb/vozmob/tree/master/html/sites/all/modules/sms_regi...
Next step: mfb to move sms_registration to DO.
Thanks!
Thanks for the continued updates
Will surely give thus a try in my current drupal project. this will be a big breakthrough
Error when using SMS Blast with sms_registration module enabled
I installed the sms_registration module in my Drupal site, it installed fine and I configured it with the registration email address, etc. Later, I went to test my SMS Blast in the SMS Framework, and got this error after clicking Send:
Fatal error: Cannot use string offset as an array in [...personal-host-path-i'm-hiding-here...]/sites/all/modules/sms_registration/sms_registration.module on line 23
I know your module isn't published yet, but thought I'd pass this along in case it was something you hadn't discovered yet.
Thanks
Thanks VictorCharles, I'll ask mfb to take a look... we don't really use SMS Blast so didn't notice this.
Did SMS registration work for you, BTW? It works for us on a daily basis :)
