I found in the forum this method that prevent the delivery notice after sending sms (which involved an additional cost)

I would ask if using this method, the event "SmsSent" works or if need to implement the corresponding PendingIntent (sentIntent)

B4X:
Sub SendSms(PhoneNumber As String, Text As String)
    Dim ps As PhoneSms
    Dim r As Reflector
    r.Target = r.RunStaticMethod("android.telephony.SmsManager", "getDefault", Null, Null)
    r.RunMethod4("sendTextMessage", Array As Object(PhoneNumber, Null, Text, Null, Null), _
        Array As String("java.lang.String", "java.lang.String", "java.lang.String", _
            "android.app.PendingIntent", "android.app.PendingIntent"))
End Sub

thanks

It will be easier to implement it with a small library. This is PhoneSms code:
B4X:
public static void Send(String PhoneNumber, String Text) {
         SmsManager sm = SmsManager.getDefault();
         Intent i1 = new Intent("b4a.smssent");
         i1.putExtra("phone", PhoneNumber);
         PendingIntent pi = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(BA.applicationContext, 0,i1, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
         Intent i2 = new Intent("b4a.smsdelivered");
         i2.putExtra("phone", PhoneNumber);
         PendingIntent pi2 = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(BA.applicationContext, 0,i2, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
         sm.sendTextMessage(PhoneNumber, null, Text, pi, pi2);
      }
You should remove pi2.

Easy though i have no experience with the creation of a library.

Would be better if you update the Phone library, adding of those 2 parameters (eg AllowDeliveryEvent, AllowSentEvent)
