@floatinghotpot have you tried the example in android 4.0.3 or under? I think there is a problem on those.

I tried in an HTC One S (WebKit/534.30), and see no error while the app it's bootstrapping, even I can see the message that it's on "watching" mode, but when an SMS arrive there is no confirmation, it's like no message had arrived at all.

SMS.deleteSMS({box: '', address: gate_address}, function(n) {
alert(n + ' sms messages deleted');
}, function(err){
alert('error delete sms: ' + err);
});

showing "X sms messages deleted" and nothing ((

Android 4.4.2

permissions error on android 6.0.1

error list sms: Permission Denial: reading com.android.providers.telephony.SmsProvider uri content ://sms/inbox requires android.permission.READ_SMS , or grantUriPermission()

as the title says, does it support?

I am trying to restore backed up SMS messages, I have created a simple function to test my logic - i do get a success callback but nothing is being saved to the phone (SAMSUNG S4).

Any direction would be much appreciated.

I have tried with two variations of the msgs as objects, one with all fields and the other with just the address and body. Objects passed are called objSMS or objSMSA.

**** see function below ****

function saveSMS() {

    var textSMS = '[{ "_id":"30","address":"0813132204","app_id":"0","body":"Boo..who goes there bbb","date":"1477483120209","date_sent":"0","deletable":"0","error_code":"0","hidden":"0","locked":"0","msg_id":"0","pri":"0","read":"1","reserved":"0","roam_pending":"0","safe_message":"0","seen":"1","sim_slot":"0","spam_report":"0","status":"-1","sub_id":"-1","svc_cmd":"0","teleservice_id":"0","thread_id":"4","type":"2" },{ "_id":"32","address":"0813132204","app_id":"0","body":"Boo..who goes there aaa","date":"1477483120209","date_sent":"0","deletable":"0","error_code":"0","hidden":"0","locked":"0","msg_id":"0","pri":"0","read":"1","reserved":"0","roam_pending":"0","safe_message":"0","seen":"1","sim_slot":"0","spam_report":"0","status":"-1","sub_id":"-1","svc_cmd":"0","teleservice_id":"0","thread_id":"5","type":"2" }]';

    var textSMSA = '[{ "address":"0813132204","body":"Boo..who goes there bbb" },{ "address":"0813132204","body":"Boo..who goes there aaa" }]';

    var objSMS = JSON.parse(textSMS);
    var objSMSA = JSON.parse(textSMSA);

    console.log(textSMS);
    console.log(objSMS);

    if(SMS) SMS.restoreSMS(objSMS, function( n ){

        console.log(n + ' sms messages restored');

    }, function(err){
        console.log('error restore sms: ' + err);
    });     

}

onSMSArrive method not working in android 4.x any work aroung

Could you please let me know - will it work for iOS ?

Thanks

I have an app that listen to incoming sms to detect confirmation code for registration action and on android M it does not request the permissions to the user so it does not detect the incoming sms.

Previously versions 4 >= 5 <= works just fine.

UPDATE:

if y try to send an SMS i get this error

uid 10147 does not have android.permission.SEND_SMS.

How can we force android to request SMS rights

I copied the example and run on my phone in debug mode nothing works just the app shows but not a single function works

Cannot manage to catch "onSMSArrive" event. Whenever an SMS arrives into the phone my application just crashes. Any ideas?

Hello,
Thank you for sharing this plugin.
I wonder how i can interpret data and data_sent when using SMS.listSMS
i have negative and positive values like 87836432 84298513 -61491568, i have tried combinations with current SMS.listSMS call time, but did not get hot to interpret them.
would you please help me.
Regards,
Jamal

I am using this plugin with ionic framework. After initializing the watch by SMS.startWatch() , it works well when the first SMS arrives. But it does not broadcasts any event for subsequent messages.

Hi floatinghotpot, I am trying to search content from sms inbox and I am having 1000 sms.

I am using the below filter as given in the doc but facing the below issues:

i. "body" filter is not working alone. While I am applying both "address" and "body" it is working as expected.
ii. When changing the index value of "indexFrom" filter from 0 to anyother value, it is returning zero result.

 var filter = {
                box : 'inbox', // 'inbox' (default), 'sent', 'draft', 'outbox', 'failed', 'queued', and '' for all
                address : '+8613601234567', // sender's phone number
                body : 'This is a test SMS', // content to match
                // following 2 filters can be used to list page up/down
                indexFrom : 0, // start from index 0
                maxCount : 10, // count of SMS to return each time
            }; 

I think this is the issue with the plugin. Please look into the issue and let me know.

Incoming message body length is greater then 160 character. It break the message into two parts. Is it any way to get a single message of whole body.

I would love to have the possibility to listen to onSMSSent same as onSMSArrive.

SMS intercept also not working on android 6.0.1

Are there other plug-ins available?

onSMSArrive method not working in android 4.x any work aroung

var textmsg = pesanku;

            if(sendto.indexOf(";") >=0) {
                sendto = sendto.split(";");
                for(i in sendto) {
                    sendto[i] = sendto[i].trim();
                }
            }
            if(SMS) SMS.sendSMS(sendto, textmsg, function(){}, function(str){alert(str);});

Cannot read property 'indexOf' of undefined

As mentioned in the docs here
The plugin is FREE to use.

While using the plugin I found that the SMS list feature of the plugin require a license key to list more thatn 10 SMSes.

But sending SMSes does not have such limit.

So does the license apply to only listing SMSes or the entire functionality?

Read Blog here.

I am using this plugin and loving it. Thanks and keep up the good work.

Everything else works fine except that found that when i use intercept the sms still goes through to the default sms app.

I am using cordova 5.0.0 and have checked for android 4.4.2 and 5.0

I am using the following code for intercept

     interceptTrue(){
         if(SMS) SMS.enableIntercept(true, function(success){
              console.log("interceptTrue  "+ success);
              }, function(error){
             console.log("interceptTrue "+error);
           });
      }

I am not getting any errors and when the success callback returns "OK".

Notice that i am using the first parameter as Boolean true, From what i could tell that is the correct way but do let me know otherwise.

-Thanks

None of the functionalities is working on phonegap developer app(Android) . Is purchasing the license is required for testing and development?

Installed using the following command:
cordova plugin add com.rjfun.cordova.sms

got this message:
Plugin 'SMS' not found, or is not a CDVPlugin. Check your plugin mapping in config.xml
with Cordova 5.1.1.
On Android, it works perfect.

Am I missing something?

Hi , I am willing to buy this plugin if you can provide this facility .Thanks

Hello all

I tried this plugin in IONIC. But the SMS object is coming as undefined in android device(One Plus One). I'm pretty sure it's being called after "device is ready".

Hi @floatinghotpot , Is it possible to get the mobile number "TO" which the receiving SMS has been sent ? Current object shows the MessageCenter and address.
My Use case is i have written an app which runs on dual sim phone and triggers service call when sms received. Here i want to put some logic which changes depending on the number on which SMS received.

Hemant

Hi there.I try this plugin but I find the restore function doesn't work.
After Android 5.0, the system will ignore any inserts into sms db except inserts from sms application that user chose. So before insert, we should ask user to chose cordova activity as the default sms application. That's easy.

if (!this.cordova.getActivity().getPackageName().equals(Telephony.Sms.getDefaultSmsPackage(this.cordova.getActivity()getApplicationContext()))) {
              Intent intent = new Intent(Telephony.Sms.Intents.ACTION_CHANGE_DEFAULT);
              intent.putExtra(Telephony.Sms.Intents.EXTRA_PACKAGE_NAME, this.cordova.getActivity().getPackageName());

              intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
              try {
                  this.cordova.getActivity().startActivity(intent);
              } catch (Exception e) {
                  e.printStackTrace();
              }
}

Then you have to add some service to AndroidManifest.xml.

<application android:hardwareAccelerated="true" android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="@string/app_name" android:supportsRtl="true">
        <activity android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden|keyboard|screenSize|locale" android:label="@string/activity_name" android:launchMode="singleTop" android:name="MainActivity" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.DeviceDefault.NoActionBar" android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize">
            <intent-filter android:label="@string/launcher_name">
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" />
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.SENDTO" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
                <data android:scheme="sms" />
                <data android:scheme="smsto" />
                <data android:scheme="mms" />
                <data android:scheme="mmsto" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
        <receiver android:name=".commonComponent.backupComponent.EmptySmsReceiver" android:permission="android.permission.BROADCAST_SMS">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.provider.Telephony.SMS_DELIVER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </receiver>
        <receiver android:name=".commonComponent.backupComponent.EmptyMmsReceiver" android:permission="android.permission.BROADCAST_WAP_PUSH">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.provider.Telephony.WAP_PUSH_DELIVER" />
                <data android:mimeType="application/vnd.wap.mms-message" />
            </intent-filter>
        </receiver>
        <service android:exported="true" android:name=".commonComponent.backupComponent.EmptyService" android:permission="android.permission.SEND_RESPOND_VIA_MESSAGE">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.RESPOND_VIA_MESSAGE" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
                <data android:scheme="sms" />
                <data android:scheme="smsto" />
                <data android:scheme="mms" />
                <data android:scheme="mmsto" />
            </intent-filter>
        </service>
    </application>

I make the restore function work in this way.But I don't know if there is another way because this is a plugin and a plugin shouldn't edit AndroidManifest.xml.
Looking forward to a better solution. :)

onSMSArrive works win background and foreground very fine, but i need a listen even if the user close (kill) the app.
How can i register in android s.o. this listen?

Hi,

I'm wondering if somebody can provide a TypeScript definition for this Cordova plugin.

This link provides all necessary information on how this can be done: typings/typings#322

Thanks in advance!

I tried to list all sms for one contact. For the native sms application, sms address with area code (+911234567890) and without area code (1234567890) is same. But the plugin cannot list the sms that were sent without the area code (say to 1234567890). Am I missing anything. I tried with Android 6.0.

Hi,
I am currently working on an app where after the user enters the phone number during registration process, an auto generated OTP is sent to his/her mobile. In the very next page he/she needs to put the OTP and hit next so that he/she can set the password. Now I want to automate the process , like when OTP comes my app should be able to detect and autofill the OTP input box.

Using Meteor 1.3.3
Cordova for generating mobile apps

Thank You

What do we pass for the filter argument: listSMS?

When i give

 if (window.cordova) {
     if (SMS) SMS.startWatch(function() {
         update('watching', 'watching started');
     }, function() {
         updateStatus('failed to start watching');
     });
 }

I am getting an error like this ,
SMS225915513 : ReferenceError: update is not defined

Is this plugin dual sim mobile supported???

Please tell me???

Thank you!

From readme file:

A valid license is required to get email support, or use it in commercial product.

It is specified that this plugin uses MIT license, but what actually is included in this "valid license"? The project can be modified? Ca be used as a base for another open source project with MIT license?

sendSMS returns success when failure has occurred due to no credit remaining on phone

Code used to demonstrate fault on a Galaxy Young 2 (Android) phone using O2 payg sim:

var number = "xxxxxxxxxxx";
var message = "Hello there";
var success = function (e) { alert('Message sent successfully ' + e); }; //e returns 'OK'
var error = function (e) { alert('Message Failed:' + e); };
if(SMS) SMS.sendSMS(number, message, success, error);

I have tried to use the listSMS method and it seems to work ok. But I have problems with interpreting two fields in the JSON file that it returns. The two fields are date_sent and date. They contain just numbers, so I guess they are supposed to be UNIX style dates (i.e. milliseconds from the epoch). Is that a correct assumption? When accessed from javascript though, they are sometimes negative and they appear to be to small. Is there a conversion problem between Java and Javascript?

Dear ,
Thank you for the great work ! but when I try to start the watcher and then send SMS the app close !
I have tested the app on two device (android 5 and android 4.X)
Regards,

Does the plugin has some limit for the number of letters that a SMS can contain ? Since when I try to send with 159 characters its fine, but if its 160+ its not sending the message
