Sending Sms Programatically Doesn't Save It To Sent Items

I am sending an SMS programmatically from my app. The sent message is not saved in Sent Items folder. I have read few posts, especially this one... http://android-developers.blogsp

Solution 1:

You can save Message Pragmatically, in sent items or in inbox.

publicbooleanrestoreSms(Sms obj) {
    booleanret=false;
    try {
        ContentValuesvalues=newContentValues();
        values.put("address", obj.getAddress());
        values.put("body", obj.getMsg());
        values.put("read", obj.getReadState());
        values.put("date", obj.getTime());
        mActivity.getContentResolver().insert(

                    Uri.parse("content://sms/sent", values);
                    //Uri.parse("content://sms/inbox", values);
        ret = true;
    } catch (Exception ex) {
        ret = false;
    }
    return ret;
}

<uses-permissionandroid:name="android.permission.WRITE_SMS" />
