Here's my code:

VB

Private Sub frmRecieveSMS_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
    Using commPort As IO.Ports.SerialPort = My.Computer.Ports.OpenSerialPort("COM8", 9600)
        'display all SMS in my textbox named tbMessages
        commPort.Write("AT+CMGL=""ALL""" & vbCrLf & Chr(34))
        tbMessage.Text = commPort.ReadExisting
    End Using
End Sub

This will display all messages from my SIM(i guess).

1. the problem is how will my tbMessage.text be updated when i will receive an incoming message? please help guys ! :(

2. How will i get each SMS message and place it in a list? i dont know how to implement it because i don't know where to stop on each SMS message. thanks guys :)

im dying already, i felt my head is bursting :(

And is there some reason that you are not using the DataReceived event?

you can use timer and put some iterval like 20 seconds
so code will execute every 20 seconds
you can check status or execute what ever logic yout required !!
