I have a Samsung tablet model P1000 running android 2.3.3, and a Samsung phone running android 4.1.2. I am able to send an SMS manually from the tablet to the phone and it works. However, using the app below on the tablet nothing happens and the SMS does not come to the phone.

Dim lblMobileNo As Label
Dim lblMessage As Label
End Sub
Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
'Do not forget to load the layout file created with the visual designer. For example:
Activity.LoadLayout("main")
Dim Sms As PhoneSms
Dim MobileNo As String
MobileNo = "+27613798660"
lblMobileNo.Text = MobileNo
Dim messagetext As String
messagetext = "hello there"
lblMessage.Text = messagetext
Log("msg=" & messagetext)
Log("MobileNo=" & MobileNo)
Sms.Send(MobileNo, messagetext)
ToastMessageShow("sms " & messagetext & " to " & MobileNo, True)
Log("sms " & messagetext & " to " & MobileNo)
End Sub
If I use the same app on the phone to send an SMS to the tablet it works.
What can I do?
Yes it does, and the app works on the phone and sends the sms okay to the tablet. And I can send an sms manually from the tablet to the phone.
But the app doesn't work on the tablet and there is no error message! The sms never gets to the phone.
Hi Erel, i am pleased to let you know that I solved the problem. On the tablet, in Account and sync settings , then in General sync settings, I had to tick Background data ON. The sms from the tablet to the phone works perfectly.
I got the clue by looking at my phone logs and there was no record in the logs of the sms sent from the phone to the tablet.
Cheers
