How To Send Sms Message Inside Broadcast Receiver Class?

I have a class that implements a broadcast receiver. I also inside of this class i want to be able to send a text message out automatically. Is this possible. Ive tried a lot of di

Solution 1:

Does your AndroidManifest.xml include the SEND_SMS permission?

EDIT: try this and see if it prints anything out:

@OverridepublicvoidonReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
    Intenti=newIntent(context, smsReceiver.class);
    PendingIntentpi= PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, i, 0);
    Bundlebundle= intent.getExtras();

    Stringstr="";
    Stringphonenumber="";
    StringhouseNumber="22";
    Stringmessage="Two bedrooms Two Baths";
try{
        SmsMessage []msgs = null;
        SmsManagersms= SmsManager.getDefault();   
        if(bundle != null){
        Object[]pdus = (Object[])bundle.get("pdus");
        msgs = newSmsMessage[pdus.length];
        for(int i2=0; i2<msgs.length; i2++){

        msgs[i2]= SmsMessage.createFromPdu((byte[])pdus[i2]);
        phonenumber +=  msgs[i2].getOriginatingAddress();


        str += msgs[i2].getMessageBody().toString();



        }




        sms.sendTextMessage(phonenumber, null, message, pi, null);
}
}catch(Exception e1){
    android.util.Log.v("SMS ERROR","Exception sending SMS ["+e1.getMessage()+"]", e1);
}
}

Solution 2:

Put this block inside of your broadcast receiver file.

Stringphonenumber="123456789";
Stringmessage="Message";
 SmsMessage []msgs = null;
  SmsManagersms= SmsManager.getDefault();
  sms.sendTextMessage(phonenumber, null, message, null, null);

You'll need to place this next to your imports in the same file:

import android.telephony.gsm.SmsManager;

You will also need this permission in your manifest:

<uses-permissionandroid:name="android.permission.SEND_SMS" />

I hope this helps!
