You can use SmsManager to send sms.
SmsManager smsManager = SmsManager.getDefault();
smsManager.sendTextMessage("phoneNo", null, "sms message", null, null);
You can use BroadcastReceiver to receive sms.
Several tutorials are available online to understand BroadcastReceiver.

the sms is sent successfully bu when receiving the message the character are wrongly printed in screen
please help me
i tested it in a virtual device
SmsManager sms = SmsManager.getDefault();
ArrayList<String> parts = sms.divideMessage(keyAsString);
sms.sendMultipartTextMessage(getPhoneNo().getText().toString(), null, parts, null, null);
Have you checked the phone sending and the phone receiving are using the same character sets?
I'm not entirely sure how to check because I don't know what phone you're using but if the characters look something like this phenomenon then that might be your problem: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mojibake
I've implemented code to send sms message from an Android emulator to another, which works well. But when I try to send message from the emulator or an Android device(with wifi only, no data plan or number with the phone) to a device(iPhone ), it doesn't work. I'm not quite sure if sms needs a data plan to send message in real world. Thx for the help!
SmsManager sms = SmsManager.getDefault();
sms.sendTextMessage(number, null, message, null, null);
Though sms does not require a data plan, it needs a working GSM or CDMA Network connection with call working.
SMS is Short Message Service. It's been around longer than we've had internet on phones, and definitely requires a valid SIM card and a working network connection (data over network isn't necessary, but you should be able to make calls).
I am sending SMS by using
Code:
SmsManager sms = SmsManager.getDefault();
sms.sendTextMessage(phoneNumber, null, message, sentPI, deliveredPI);
It's working fine and successfully sends a standard SMS that is automatically saved in recipient mobile inbox.
I want send the SMS as flash(notification) SMS. By this I mean that the message should be displayed immediately on recipient mobile screen but not stored.
Please tell me how can I do this.
For sending Flash SMS the Modem used should be compatible to send Flash Messages.
try sending AT+CMGF? command.This will read the value stored by modem for command CMGF Message Format
if AT+CMGF? returns 0 i.e it is in PDU mode (where entire TP data units are used)
then it is compatible
else if it returns 1 then it is in text mode (where the body of
the message and its headers are given as separate parameters)
I'm sending SMS in my Android App,
SmsManager sm = SmsManager.getDefault();
String number = "1234567890";
sm.sendTextMessage(number, null, "Test SMS Message--Successful", null, null);
It is working fine. My Question is, Is it possible to add string/text instead of Sender Mobile Number? so that in the recipient mobile, the sender's mobile number will be appeared as that string/text.
Yes, it is possible to change the sender phone number, but you need to use a third party SMS Gateway. You can reroute the SMS to come from a phone number that you register for your app.

No. It is not possible. Here are multiple reasons why:
When you send an sms, using SmsManager you encode it with the content - the actual text message itself. You also encode it with the phone number you are sending it to. And you encode the message center number to the message. That is all you get to encode. Then Android/hardware handles sending it over to the cell phone tower where it is then out of your hands.
If you somehow tried to encode the recipient phone number as text, then the carrier would have no idea how to handle the message. It wouldn't have anywhere to send it too.
Cell phones do not have inbound Caller (or sms) ID - unless the number is already programmed, of course.
When the carrier network is sending an sms, it goes through a message center. The message center determines what data is forwarded to the recipient phone. The message centers currently available just do not support what you're wanting - at least not to the consumer.
