Programatically send SMS Android (Not receiving status)

Question

I am using http://mobiforge.com/developing/story/sms-messaging-android code example word for word except for the fact that I changed:

import android.telephony.gs         


        

Answer 1

For anyone having this problem now, if you're testing this on Android 4.4 or later, it will not work unless your app is the default SMS app.

From the docs -

Beginning with Android 4.4, the system settings allow users to select a "default SMS app." Once selected, only the default SMS app is able to write to the SMS Provider and only the default SMS app receives the SMS_DELIVER_ACTION broadcast when the user receives an SMS or the WAP_PUSH_DELIVER_ACTION broadcast when the user receives an MMS. The default SMS app is responsible for writing details to the SMS Provider when it receives or sends a new message.
