Default How to get the port of the connected smartphone.
I want to send SMS message from my PC to the connected smartphone. I know how to do this using GMS commands. I have created code in C#. The basic problem is that I can not figure out which port the phone is connected to. I have connected the phone with its data cable. In addition, I have installed its driver as well as the software provided by the company and the software successfully connects to it. But for my specific purpose I just have to know the communications port it is connected to so that I continue testing my code. I am using Windows XP. I don't find anything from control panel which would tell the required piece of information. Please help!

When i connect my phone to the PC the properties window of "USB Composite Device" under Universal Serial Bus Controllers under Device Manager shows the Location as "Location 0". I don't know how to use this location in my code. My code is working fine with the old-fashioned phone (samsung sgh-e250) and when i connect it displays the communications port (like COM3, COM4 etc.) which is then passed as a parameter to my function. I am using SerialPort class of System.IO.Ports namespace. I guess i have to use some other class to access USB port address. Please help.
