Android SMS multi text groups

My project is a checklist of phone numbers in a recyclerView/cardView. The phone numbers/businesses can be added or subtracted by a checkBox to make individual groups. I want to be able to send a group multi-text to the selected individuals.
My problem is that only the first phone number (recipient) in a group receives the message while the rest receive nothing, but the numbers still display in the edit text (the first is the only functioning number).
I have tried a lot of different ways but nothing has worked, I am about to give up.
No one seems to know how to fix this problem. If this problem can be solved please let me know.
I don't want to loop the numbers and text individually, that was a suggested fix.
This is the phone activity:
public class ACPhone extends AppCompatActivity {
private static final String SEPARATOR = ";";
EditText txtPhoneNo;
EditText txtMessage;
TextView txtView;
Button btnsend;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_acphone);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
txtPhoneNo = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.txtPhoneNo);
txtMessage = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.txtMessage);
txtView = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.txtMessageMass);
btnsend = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnSend);
Intent intent = getIntent();
if (intent != null){
ArrayList<CharSequence> selectedNumbers =
intent.getCharSequenceArrayListExtra(SELECTED_NUMBERS);
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
for (int i = 0; i < selectedNumbers.size(); i++) {
sb.append(selectedNumbers.get(i));
if (i != selectedNumbers.size() - 1){
sb.append(SEPARATOR);
}
}
txtPhoneNo.setText(sb.toString());
}
btnsend.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override public void onClick(View v) {
String phoneNo = txtPhoneNo.getText().toString();
String message = txtMessage.getText().toString();
String messageView = txtView.getText().toString();
if (phoneNo.length() > 0 && message.length() > 0) {
sendMessage(phoneNo, message, messageView);
} else {
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Please enter message",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
});
}
private void sendMessage(String phoneNo,String message, String staticMessage){
try {
SmsManager smsManager = SmsManager.getDefault();
smsManager.sendTextMessage(phoneNo,null,message + "\n" +
staticMessage,null,null);
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Message Sent",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
catch (Exception e){
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Unable to send. Please try again", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
}

You could create a list of all the numbers and do a for loop through the list in your onclick or in a method and call it in onclick. That's how I would do it anyway.

Following are the some steps to send one single message to multiple contact when it is checked.
Step 1 : In your MainActivity.class like this,
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
ListView listView;
EditText editMessage;
ProgressDialog progressDialog;
Handler progresshandler;
boolean isThreadRunning;
int i;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.contactsView);
editMessage = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editMessage);
listView.setAdapter(new ContactAdapter(this, contacts));
progressDialog = new ProgressDialog(this);
progressDialog.setMessage("Sending Messages.. Please wait!");
progresshandler = new Handler() {
public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
progressDialog.dismiss();
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Messages Sent",
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
};
}
}
Step 2 : Create one class within this MainActivity.class(Put this class below onCreate() method)
class SendMessagesThread extends Thread {
Handler handler;
public SendMessagesThread(Handler handler) {
this.handler = handler;
}
public void run() {
SmsManager smsManager = SmsManager.getDefault();
// Find out which contacts are selected
for (int i = 0; i < listView.getCount(); i++) {
View item = (View) listView.getChildAt(i);
boolean selected = ((CheckBox) item.findViewById(R.id.selected)).isChecked();
if (selected) {
String mobile = ((TextView) item.findViewById(R.id.mobile)).getText().toString();
try {
smsManager.sendTextMessage(mobile, null, editMessage.getText().toString(), null, null);
} catch (Exception ex) {
Log.d("Mobile", "Could not send message to " + mobile);
}
}
}
Message m = handler.obtainMessage();
handler.sendMessage(m);
} // run
} // Thread
Step 3: Create one method(put this method below step - 2)
public void sendMessages(View v) {
if (editMessage.getText().toString().length() > 0) {
SendMessagesThread thread = new SendMessagesThread(progresshandler);
thread.start();
progressDialog.show();
} else {
Toast.makeText(this, "Please enter message!", Toast.LENGTH_LONG)
.show();
}
}
Note : According to my project, I am not using any SQLite database or webservice.Basically, I am fetching all the contact from device contact book and displaying that contact to listview. So, Try to understand and modify.

public class TextActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
ArrayList<CharSequence> selectedNumbers
=getIntent().getCharSequenceArrayListExtra(SELECTED_NUMBERS);;
String phNumbers = "";
for (CharSequence s: selectedNumbers) {
phNumbers += s + ";";
}
// for (int i = 0; i < selectedNumbers.size(); i++) {
// phNumbers += selectedNumbers.get(i);
// if (i != selectedNumbers.size()-1){
// phNumbers += ";";
// }
// }
phNumbers = phNumbers.substring(0, phNumbers.length() - 1);
String message = "";
Intent smsIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
smsIntent.setType("vnd.android-dir/mms-sms");
smsIntent.putExtra("address", phNumbers);
smsIntent.putExtra("sms_body",message);
startActivity(smsIntent);
}
}

Sending Encoded SMS using SmsManager does not get received

When in send direct SMS there is no problem but when I send operational SMS that contains DNA bases(A , G , T , C only) then it is not working.
Plaintext is normal message. Whats the problem?? Please help.
public class sendMessage extends Activity {
Button button;
EditText plainTxt;
EditText cipherText;
EditText editPhoneNum;
int plaintxtArray[] = new int[1500];
Bundle bundle=new Bundle();
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.smssend);
button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button);
editPhoneNum = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.editPhoneNum);
plainTxt = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editSMS);
cipherText = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.editcipher);
button.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
String phoneNo = editPhoneNum.getText().toString();
//Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Number is: " + phoneNo, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
String plainText = plainTxt.getText().toString();
String CipherText=DNAbaseConvert(plainText);
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Cypher Text is: " + CipherText, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
MessageToSent( phoneNo, CipherText);
}
});
}
public String DNAbaseConvert(String plainText)
{
//various operation goes here.
return b; //b-> a string , length 7-8 charecter long.
}
public void MessageToSent(String phoneNo, String CipherText) {
try {
SmsManager smsManager = SmsManager.getDefault();
smsManager.sendTextMessage(phoneNo, null, CipherText, 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();
}
}
public void onBackPressed() {
super.onBackPressed();
Intent www = new Intent(sendMessage.this, LoggedIn1.class);
startActivity(www);
finish();
}
}

You can try this:
try {
SmsManager smsManager = SmsManager.getDefault();
ArrayList<String> parts = smsManager.divideMessage(CipherText);
smsManager.sendMultipartTextMessage(phoneNo, null, parts, 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();
}
For more help you can see this thread

Try saving the response from DNAbaseConvert(plainText) in a variable and pass it to sendTextMessage()
String msg=DNAbaseConvert(plainText);
smsManager.sendTextMessage(phoneNo, null, msg, null, null);
This is because the response from DNAbaseConvert() may caused problem inside it..

You might be having a problem hitting the SMS message size limit. If you're using the SmsManager.sendTextMessage() method, you might instead try the SmsManager.sendMultipartTextMessage() method, with the SmsManager.divideMessage() method to split up your string.

Error while sending SMS

I'm writing code for sending SMS, but sending the SMS is failing. Additionally, sometimes my code has a crossed line and this warning: "The method sendTextMessage(String, String, String, PendingIntent, PendingIntent) from the type SmsManager is deprecated"
class MainActivity extends Activity implements OnClickListener{
Button bSend;
EditText Mobile, msg;
String mob, s_msg;

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
init();
bSend.setOnClickListener(this);
}
private void init() {

bSend = (Button) findViewById(R.id.bSendSMS);
Mobile = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.etMobile);
mob = Mobile.getText().toString();

getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
return true;
}
#Override

try {
SmsManager smsManager = SmsManager.getDefault();
smsManager.sendTextMessage(mob, null, s_msg, null, null);
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "SMS Sent!",

} catch (Exception e) {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
"SMS faild, please try again later!",
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
e.printStackTrace();

}
}

You're getting a deprecation message because you've imported the wrong SmsManager Class.
Remove android.telephony.gsm.SmsManager and import android.telephony.SmsManager
Also, please make sure you've given the permission to send messages
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SEND_SMS" />

Please see below screen shot, like you can see, here i am trying to send message to Rahul...
Manifest.xml:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SEND_SMS" />
Please check below code:
private TextView name;
private ListView list;
private Database db;
private Contact contact;
ImageButton buttonSend;
EditText textSMS;
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.editor);
// bind GUI components
this.name = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.editor_name);
this.list = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.editor_list);
// check if contact id is valid
this.db = new Database(getContentResolver());
int contactId = getIntent().getIntExtra(CONTACT_ID, NO_CONTACT_ID);
this.contact = this.db.getContact(contactId);
if (this.contact == null) {
finish();
}
this.name.setText(this.contact.getName());
// pre-load information about all account types
AuthenticatorDescription[] authTypes = AccountManager.get(this).getAuthenticatorTypes();
for (AuthenticatorDescription authDesc : authTypes) {
this.map.put(authDesc.type, authDesc);
}
// bind list events
this.list.setOnItemClickListener(this);
this.list.setOnCreateContextMenuListener(this);
// create the GUI
updateView();
saveGreeting = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.greeting);
saveGreeting.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
customGreeting(v);
}
});
buttonSend = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.buttonSend);
textSMS = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editTextSMS);
buttonSend.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
String sms = textSMS.getText().toString();
try {
SmsManager smsManager = SmsManager.getDefault();
smsManager.sendTextMessage(CONTACT_ID, 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();
}
}
});
}

Do not use recipient name to send message , use mobile number to send message .
Get contact number from contact list and use that contact number instead of name in sendTextMessage function.
