Android Question [SOLVED] Are there restrictions on the number of characters when sending SMS messages through B4A

[Rene Barrera]

Does anyone know if there are restrictions on the number of characters to send SMS messages through B4A, Because this is when i try to send on following lines, the app does not send the message.
Thanks in advance

Sms.Send("5534674340", " Fecha: " & DateTime.Date(Ahora) & CRLF & _
" Carga: " & sRend & CRLF & _
" Importe: " & sRend & CRLF & _
" Km_Ant: " & strKmAnt & CRLF & _
" Km_Act: " & strKmACT & CRLF & _
" Gasto: " & LitrosConsumidos & CRLF & _
" Rend: " & sRend & CRLF & _
" Ope: " & PER_S_NOMBRE & CRLF & _
" Auto: " & VEH_S_SUBMARCA & CRLF & _
" Placas: " & VEH_S_PLACA & CRLF & _
" Modelo: " & VEH_I_MODELO)

If more information is needed, please let me know

an sms has approx 140-160 chars each sms. If using unicode characters then it may be less bytes. CRLF count too

You can chain several together if you know the syntax. I don't think that the Library does this for you, might be nice if it did

As I do not have much time to research, what I did was reduce the number of characters to perform the SMS
