title: SmsManager not working in Android 4.4.x
body: <p>I am developing an Android app, which needs to send a message to multiple recipients. </p>
  
  <p>I used this code to send an SMS to a phone:</p>
  
  <pre><code>SmsManager smsManager = SmsManager.getDefault();
  smsManager.sendTextMessage("9030500259", null, "sms message", null, null);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have read many questions in this site which said the above is correct.</p>
  
  <p>On Googling I found this:</p>

  <p>According to the article in the above link, some changes happened in messaging.</p>
  
  <p>I am unable to send SMS in my application.
  What is the correct code to send an SMS in Android version 4.4.x?</p>
