Question

I am using a content resolver to send text messages within Android:

ContentValues values = new ContentValues(6);
... 
values.put("status", 0);

...
Uri uri = context.getContentResolver().insert(Uri.parse("content://sms/outbox"), values);  

This works great as it shows up in the text message app. It successfully sends AND a delivery report of successful is received in return, yet it stays in Sending state.

Any idea why or some pointers on how to update?

Answer 1

I queried the outbox messages with this content resolver:

Cursor outboxCursor = context.getContentResolver().query(Uri.parse("content://sms/outbox"), null, null, null, null);  

Then deleted them with:

Uri deleteURI = Uri.parse("content://sms/outbox/");
context.getContentResolver().delete(deleteURI, null, null);
