please use [Code ] 'my code ... [/Code ] (without spaces) .... makes it much easier to read.

Maybe try this
B4X:
Sub AddMessageToLogs(Number As String, Body As String)
 
   'http://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/sent-sms-messages-wont-appear-in-the-log.22939/
     Dim r As Reflector
     r.Target = r.CreateObject("android.content.ContentValues")
     r.RunMethod3("put", "address", "java.lang.String", From, "java.lang.String")
     r.RunMethod3("put", "body", "java.lang.String", Body, "java.lang.String")
     Dim ContentValues As Object = r.Target
     r.Target = r.GetContext
     r.Target = r.RunMethod("getContentResolver")
     r.RunMethod4("insert", Array As Object( _
  r.RunStaticMethod("android.net.Uri", "parse", Array As Object("content://sms/inbox"), _  '  @@ !!  ....  "content://sms/sent"  to write sent SMS to Logs
  Array As String("java.lang.String")),ContentValues), Array As String("android.net.Uri", "android.content.ContentValues"))
     
End Sub

thank you bro for your kind reply but its still not working and after more searching i found my app must be the default sms application starting from android 4.4 kitkat and actulally this is my current one. But I didnt tried to make my app as default sms app.

BUT THE GOOD THING
I tried it on my previous mobile which note 1 android 4.2 and both codes are working fine you code and mine, So I think the issue that is the kitkat.

I tried the code in post #2 and added the WRITE_SMS permission in the manifest but it doesn't work.

My phone is the Huawei GR5 with Android version 5.1.1

Am I missing anything here or has Android changed permissions since post #2 was posted?
