Android.Telephony.SmsManager.SendTextMessage Method
Send a text based SMS.

Syntax

[Android.Runtime.Register("sendTextMessage", "(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;Landroid/app/PendingIntent;Landroid/app/PendingIntent;)V", "")]
public void SendTextMessage (string destinationAddress, string scAddress, string text, Android.App.PendingIntent sentIntent, Android.App.PendingIntent deliveryIntent)

Parameters

destinationAddress
the address to send the message to
scAddress
is the service center address or null to use the current default SMSC
text
the body of the message to send
sentIntent
if not NULL this PendingIntent is broadcast when the message is successfully sent, or failed. The result code will be Activity.RESULT_OK for success, or one of these errors:

RESULT_ERROR_GENERIC_FAILURE

RESULT_ERROR_RADIO_OFF

RESULT_ERROR_NULL_PDU

For RESULT_ERROR_GENERIC_FAILURE the sentIntent may include the extra "errorCode" containing a radio technology specific value, generally only useful for troubleshooting.

The per-application based SMS control checks sentIntent. If sentIntent is NULL the caller will be checked against all unknown applications, which cause smaller number of SMS to be sent in checking period.
deliveryIntent
if not NULL this PendingIntent is broadcast when the message is delivered to the recipient. The raw pdu of the status report is in the extended data ("pdu").

Exceptions

TypeReason
Java.Lang.IllegalArgumentExceptionif destinationAddress or text are empty

Remarks

Send a text based SMS.

Note: Using this method requires that your app has the NoType:android/Manifest$permission;Href=../../../reference/android/Manifest.permission.html#SEND_SMS permission.

Note: Beginning with Android 4.4 (API level 19), if and only if an app is not selected as the default SMS app, the system automatically writes messages sent using this method to the SMS Provider (the default SMS app is always responsible for writing its sent messages to the SMS Provider). For information about how to behave as the default SMS app, see Android.Provider.Telephony.
