Do you get different results if you use Sms.Send?

Try to add a short delay between the messages.

Both Send and Send2 call the native SmsManager API. The problem is most probably in a lower layer.

Hello Erel,

Thanks for your reply. Here is my report:

• using the old Sms.Send sends the messages like an automatic gun (immediately and chained)
• using the new Sms.Send2 with true, true sends the messages exactly like Sms.Send
• but using Sms.Send2 with false, false needs to introduce a small delay (I made tests with 4 seconds between each message)

That's surely not a bug but a behaviour of my Acer V370 (Jelly Bean).

Thanks for your help (I turned around many hours)

Hi, I am confused as to why ps.Send2(), per code listed below and per Erel's suggested code listed above, will not compile fas if the Send2 method is not available to me for some reason yet ps.Send() works fine; can some explain to me why this is the case and what I am missing?. BTW, my phone library is v2.10. Thanks, Gregg.

B4X:

Dim ps AsPhoneSms
ps.Send2("123456", "message", false, false) 'does not compile
ps.Send("123456","message") 'works fine

Which version of B4A are you using? This method was added in one of the last few updates.

Erel,

After upgrading from B4A 2.71 to B4A V3.20 which also upgraded phone library from V2.1 to V2.2, ps.Send2() compiled just fine.

Thanks,
Gregg
