Hi All

I am trying to send SMS through program.I am able to send text SMS on Single recipient(only one number) at a time but i try to send SMS more than one number.Then i have found some article,i read that article and implement it.But it's not working for me.

ArrayList&lt;String&gt; myArr = new ArrayList&lt;String&gt;();
             
          myArr.add("557");
          myArr.add("12178");
 StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
            for (String string : myArr) {
                sb.append(string);
                sb.append(";");
            }
                sm.sendTextMessage(sb.toString(), null, message, null,  null);

Where did you find it? Have you asked this question of the author?

What type of object is sm and what does the sm.sendTextMessage() method actually do?

Thanks for reply

SmsManager  sms = SmsManager.getDefault();

I found article from http://mobiforge.com/developing/story/sms-messaging-android[^]
I haven't ask question from author.
If you know then please help me

Now would be a good time.

Taking a look at SmsManager.sendTextMessage()[^] it would appear that it only accepts a single phone number in the first parameter (but I may be wrong); I would suggest you check that your syntax is valid for SMS.

Did you read my previous message? Did you check the syntax of the sendTextMessage() command in the link I gave you?

Yes but you are only allowed to put a single number in that field as I pointed out before. Try reading through the documentation more carefully.

Use a loop and an array list -.-

ArrayList pNumbers = new ArrayList();
pNumbers.Add("6194442221");
pNumbers.Add("6194442222");
pNumbers.Add("6194442223");
pNumbers.Add("6194442224");
for(int i = 0; i < pNumbers.Count - 1; i++)
{
sms.sendTextMessage(pNumbers[i], null, message, null, null);
}

Isn't this what was proposed weeks ago?

Is there a specific reason why you have not put the sendTextMessage inside the loop?

for (String string : myArr) {
    sm.sendTextMessage(string, null, message, null,  null);
}

Of course it would be advisable to implement the send and delivered intents.

The array contains a list of numbers, not messages. He is trying to send a single message to multiple numbers.

Right, and he was trying to concatenate the numbers into a delimited string and call the function once, I suggested, that instead of calling the sendTextMessage function once with a delimited string of numbers, he could try calling the function multiple times with each of the numbers.

Anyways, it seems it isn't working for him. I'll try it out myself and see if I can figure why not.

No Problem, I've been there too often Smile | :)

I have posted below, some code that worked on my emulators and another forum link that suggested the solution.

java ME + bluetooth problem with device discovery [modified]

1-Mar-11 21:38

Well, this worked for me.

package com.partho.smstomany;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;

import android.content.Intent;
import android.net.Uri;

import java.util.StringTokenizer;
import android.app.PendingIntent;
import android.telephony.SmsManager;

public class pSMSToMany extends Activity
{
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
    {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

		String message = "Some Message";
        String phoneNo = "5556;5558";
		
		StringTokenizer st=new StringTokenizer(phoneNo,";");
		while (st.hasMoreElements())
		{
			String tempMobileNumber = (String)st.nextElement();
			if(tempMobileNumber.length()>0 && message.trim().length()>0) {
				SmsManager sms = SmsManager.getDefault();
				sms.sendTextMessage(tempMobileNumber, null, message, null, null);    
			}
		}
    }
}

Actual code from Here[^]. Dumbed down to try it out.

Hello
I'm writing bluetooth client application for my mobile phone and I got stuck on device discovery.
My app can't discover any device, although in-built bluetooth app works fine. How can I make it work?
My code for device discovery:

localDevice = LocalDevice.getLocalDevice();
discoveryAgent = localDevice.getDiscoveryAgent();
discoveryAgent.startInquiry(DiscoveryAgent.GIAC,this);

What you have done so far is initiate a search, which can take a long time. You have two ways to get the results:
1. write inquiryCompleted() in your DiscoveryListener implementation, and, when (or after) it is called, use discoveryAgent.retrieveDevices() to get an array of devices that have been discovered.
2. write deviceDiscovered() in your DiscoveryListener implementation, and, each time it is called, see if the device is what you are looking for.
I tried both ways (and they both work), but settled on #1 for production code.

Thank you for reply but I have these methods implemented. The problem is that my app can't find any device, though at least one - my laptop - is on and is discoverable. I can easily connect with it through in-built bluetooth app. Yet, another thing that puzzles me is why I can't get bluetooth address and friendly name from LocalDevice object. The only thing I get is empty string or null and my app suspends.

Well it seems that the problem is caused by my phone. I rebooted it, launched my app and it worked but only once. Anyway I think that this topic can be considered as closed.

In my experience, the phone's bluetooth manager can get totally confused if you do something it doesn't expect. The result is as you describe - reboot, your code works once (but the BT manager is locked up). I've found that you need to try and get "inside it's head" and imagine what state various BT internals might be in. Then avoid anything that might upset it. It took me a long time to develop code that could reliably switch the phone's BT connection back and forth between two external devices (PC, printer). Then when I tried it on a different brand of phone, I had to modify it again...

Can't find PInvoke DLL 'ril.dll'.

Hi,
Am trying to get celltowerinfo using C# and Windows Mobile 6 Pro in a Location based application. I get error message "cant find PInvoke DLL' ril.dll'
I thought this dll comes with Windows Mobile. Any Ideas how I can get the dll and reference it in my project coz am new in this area?

Also I need to use this info to track cab drivers using Google Maps. Do I have to deploy the dll in each of their cellphones?
Any help will be highly appreciated.

Eric

It depends on the manufacturer of the phone. Each OEM has a slightly different build of Windows Mobile - it's up to them to decide what components they include (via Platform Builder). The functionality of ril.dll is somewhere in the build but your manufacturer has obviously put it somewhere other than the standard DLL. Unless you contact the manufacturer, you're basically out of luck.
