Sending an SMS Text Message

Monkey Targets Forums/Android/Sending an SMS Text Message

This is how to Send a Text from your android phone:

This is the android file: rophone.android.java

import android.telephony.SmsManager;

class rophone
{
	public static SmsManager SmsM = SmsManager.getDefault();
	static void SendSms(String number, String msg)
	{
		SmsM.sendTextMessage(number, null, msg, null, null);
	}
}

This is the monkey script: rophone.monkey

#If TARGET = "android"

Import mojo
Import "rophone.android.java"

Extern
Function SendSms:Void(number:String, msg:String) = "rophone.SendSms"
Public

#Endif

Here's how to use it:

SendSms("5554748392", "Text")'That's not a real number...

Tested and works. Make sure to add the "SEND_SMS" permission to the AndroidManifest.
I plan on making a small phone library.

thank you! I will use this for my current online-game. Now the user can invite friends for playing with him and sending them the Team-Id.

What about writing a list of all possible native android function calls here in forum?

Here you go:

Yes, with enough time and writing the externs, why not :-)

yeah the externs are pretty awesome. Here's another use which the code is nearly the same. It detects the Language that your android device is set too.

android file: extra.android.java

import java.util.Locale;

class roExtra
{
	public static Locale Loc = Locale.getDefault();
	
	public static String GetLang()
	{
		return Loc.getDisplayLanguage();
	}
}

and here's the Android file:

#If TARGET = "android"
		Import "extra.android.java"
		Extern
			Function GetLang:String() = "roExtra.GetLang"
		Public
#Else
	Function GetLang:String()
		Return ""
	End function
#Endif

It should return a string with the language

Looks like it's only allowed for one app to send SMS in Android 4.4

"Given the fact that on Android 4.4 KitKat, only one application will be able to receive and send SMS / MMS, Google recommends devs to disable the ability to send new messages when a certain app is not currently selected as default. "
