PhoneSms library. Send SMS question

[brelto85]

Hi,

I'm trying write an app that send sms
using the PhoneSms library, it works and the sms are sent correctly

The problem is that, after sending, the message is not saved in the android messages application

there's a way to do that?

Hi, does PhoneSms.Send method have a limit of characters? I noticed that some long sms sent for my app have not arrived

Yes that's right : a standard SMS is limited to 160 caracters. But when you use accentuated letters (like é ö) it is less than that size. Erel had kindly provided some code for multipart SMS : http://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/multipart-sms.21802/#post-127027

thanks for your sooon reply! do you know if that multipart sms can also handle the status? (sent, delivered)

 

[lemonisdead]

Sorry but I don't know (I am not always understanding the use of Reflection or JavaObjects). Perhaps an expert will have the reply.

Ok, I posted it on that thread
thanks!

if I power off the destination phone, the SmsDelivered event is fired but the sms was not delivered..
delivered means "delivered to the phone network" or "delivered to the destination phone"?
when I power on the destination phone, I get again the SmsDelivered event
I get it twice.. is that the correct behaviour?

See Google documentation about sendIntent and deliveryIntent: http://developer.android.com/refere...app.PendingIntent, android.app.PendingIntent)

You should get a single event. However it is the OS who sends the intents so you don't have any control over it.
