I am developing an android app where I need to send the SMS at the phone boot. I have registered receiverfor android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED and DEVICE_BOOT_COMPLETED.
My application receives above events when phone is started. However it is not sending any SMS.
I am calling following function to send SMS. It does not show any error but fails to send any SMS. I am using KitKat version. Please help.
public static void sendMessageString phonenumber,String message)
{
SmsManager manager = SmsManager.getDefault();
manager.sendTextMessage(phonenumber, null, message, null, null);
}
Please help.
I am able to send normal message to a number through SmsManager. But I want to send image(mms) along with text message. I know it can be sent through Intent with ACTION_SEND, but I am using SmsManager. But searching about it, some sources say it might not be possible. But has someone made it possible?
SmsManager sms = SmsManager.getDefault();
sms.sendTextMessage(phoneNumber, null, message, null, null);
I want to send an SMS, but not using the SmsManager class. I want to do it with the native SMS app which is there on an Android phone.
And here is the twist : I do NOT want to launch the native app while doing it. Is there some format of intent which can send an sms directly (given the sms-body and the phone number to send it to) via the native app (without the user having to click 'send').
I googled the same, but all results and responses simply launched the native sms, waiting for user to manually send the SMS. I have seen this being implemented in some apps like 'MightyText' and wish to implement in my app as well.
Please help !
Using the SmsManager will send the sms through the system but will not put it in the SMS content provider as was mentioned earlier. Hence any native messaging app will not see it.
To do so, you have to add it manually via the SMS content provider AFTER you send the message normally via SmsManager. Here's some sample code to help:
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put("address", "+12345678"); // phone number to send
values.put("date", System.currentTimeMillis()+"");
values.put("read", "1"); // if you want to mark is as unread set to 0
values.put("type", "2"); // 2 means sent message
values.put("body", "This is my message!");
Uri uri = Uri.parse("content://sms/");
Uri rowUri = context.getContentResolver().insert(uri,values);
And that's all. After that you'll notice that it's added and the native messaging app displays it normally.
Please click "accept" answer if it works out for you.
Ok, so you want to send a SMS, without using SmsManager and plus it should show up in your native SMS app list?
Firstly, you cannot send SMS bypassing SmsManager. If you look at the source code of all native messaging app for Samsung Galaxy Nexus, it will invoke SmsManager on button click.
so, the below piece of code as posted above is correct
SmsManager sms = SmsManager.getDefault();
sms.sendTextMessage(phoneNumber, null, message, null, null);
Secondly, after sending the message, native apps put it into into SMS ContentProvider
follow this How to save SMS to inbox in android?
Word of caution is that now adding to this is not supported. So you may have to resort to a hack to add it into the sent box.
If you only have ACTION_SENDTO, then, of course, any application that can send will pop up.
You need to add a filter for SMS
with URL. See https://stackoverflow.com/a/2372665/94363
or with content type https://stackoverflow.com/a/10613013/94363
I have done something similar in a project I was working on. You need to use SmsManager
It would be something like this -
SmsManager smsManager = SmsManager.getDefault();
smsManager.sendTextMessage(phoneNumber, null, message, null, null);
You can use this to send an SMS programatically.
Try this:
String phoneNo = textPhoneNo.getText().toString();
String sms = textSMS.getText().toString();
try {
SmsManager smsManager = SmsManager.getDefault();
smsManager.sendTextMessage(phoneNo, null, sms, null, null);
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "SMS Sent!",
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} catch (Exception e) {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
"SMS faild, please try again later!",
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
e.printStackTrace();
}
I'm new to android Develpoment
my first application is ant-spy
I try to detect the application that sent sms (that is listening to send an sms )
I ask you to help me this application and if possible give me a source code for DECT application waiting to send sms or a code that resemble.
Thanks.
This code is used to send sms:
SmsManager smsManager = SmsManager.getDefault();
smsManager.sendTextMessage(smsNumberToSend, null, smsTextToSend, null, null);
I used this good tutorial http://mobiforge.com/developing/story/sms-messaging-android for sending SMS in my android app.
If I do not want the provider to send me the delivery report when sending a sms, is it enough to set the delivery intent to NULL?
Like instead of:
sms.sendTextMessage(phoneNumber, null, message, sentPI, deliveredPI);
use
sms.sendTextMessage(phoneNumber, null, message, sentPI, NULL);
or is there an additional setting to prevent SMS delivery reports?
Are you getting an SMS (or a System-Message) from your Provider, which tells you that the SMS was successfully send? If so, you might activated some "alert when successfully send" thing in your SMS app.
Otherwise yes, if you don't want the Intent, just pass 'null'. But i don't know why you'd do that.
