Hi everyone.
I am new to BlackBerry Development. I want to send SMS from my application. I have used BlackBerry DatagramConnection API's and It is working fine, whenever there is GPRS connection. I want to do the same without GPRS connection as normal SMS technology works.

Plz Can anyone help me in this issue?

Thanks in Advance.

Well my decision for the problem is...

MessageConnection conn = null;
      TextMessage text = null;
      try {
        conn = (MessageConnection) Connector.open("sms://");
        conn.close();
        text = (TextMessage) conn.newMessage(MessageConnection.TEXT_MESSAGE);
        text.setPayloadText("message");
      } catch (IOException e) {
        Dialog.alert("Exception: " + e);
      }
      Invoke.invokeApplication(Invoke.APP_TYPE_MESSAGES, new MessageArguments(text));

With this code the system sms application for sending SMSs is opened and the body is "message" and you should choose the number you want and SEND it

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. It worked fine but i need to send sms, without any interfearence. I have an static message to send and this process should be automated without invoking system SMS application.
Thanks in Advance.
with regards,
Raghav.

hi pa4o85

i use your sample code but my application shown this error
"Error Starting Sendsms MOdule "SendSms"attempts to accessa secure Api"
how to solve this type of errors is my application need signing?

[simon.hain]

the correct code to send a sms directly is as follows,
number is a string with the phone number of the target device,
msg a string with the message you want to send.

MessageConnection _dc = (MessageConnection)Connector.open("sms://"+number);                 
Message sms = _dc.newMessage(MessageConnection.TEXT_MESSAGE);
TextMessage sms2 = (TextMessage)sms;
sms2.setPayloadText(msg);    
_dc.send(sms2);

this is using a secure api, you need to sign your code using the $100 signing key.
be sure to use this inside an own thread.

@pa4o85: your code is a bit strange. you open a connection just to close it in the next line... and why would you want to create a message manually when you invoke the sms-application anyhow?

hth,
simon

I was able to send the message without gprs also using Datagram connection.

But the message reaching the recipient is junk ..I think it is going as binary or some part of UDH is getting messed up.
This is the code i use .

	DatagramConnection dc = 
				(DatagramConnection)Connector.open("sms://"
						               +message.GetDestAddress());
			
       Datagram d = dc.newDatagram(dc.getMaximumLength());
			
	d.setData(msgText[i].getBytes(), 0, msgText[i].length());
        dc.send(d);

Can anyone throw some more light on it .??
