I wrote a program that is meant to send a delayed SMS message. That is, I input a message and destination, activate a timer, and when the timer ends, it sends the SMS. Here's the menu option that activates the timer:

Code:

u8 PROGMEM msg_timer[] = "Timer set for one minute.";
u8 PROGMEM msg_no_timer[] = "No timer available.";
u8 Menu_Func_Send(SCtx *ctx, u8 action) {
  if (action == APP_ENTER) {
   
   
    u8 t = timer_start(0, 1, 0); // 0 h, 1 m, 0 s
    if (t != 0)
      display_text_raw(msg_timer, Q_DISPLAY_TEXT_HIGH_PRIORITY | Q_DISPLAY_TEXT_DELAY_CLEAR);
    else
      display_text_raw(msg_no_timer, Q_DISPLAY_TEXT_HIGH_PRIORITY | Q_DISPLAY_TEXT_DELAY_CLEAR);
   
    return APP_BACK;
  }
  return APP_OK;
}


There's a clause in the turbo_handler function for handling the timer stopping:

Code:

    case ACTION_TIMER_EXPIRATION:
      stk_thread(action_timer_expired, data);
      break;


And that function it calls sends the SMS:

Code:

void action_timer_expired (void *data) {
  action_sms(NULL);
}

void action_sms(void *data) {
  u8 i;
 
  u8* eMessage = (u8*) rw(&(PM->message));
  u8* eNumber = (u8*) rw(&(PM->number));
 
  u8* number = malloc( 32*sizeof(u8) );
  for(i = 0; i < 32; i++) number[i] = rb(&(eNumber[i]));
  u8* ms = str2msisdn(number, MSISDN_ADN, MEM_R);
  free(number);
 
  u8* message = malloc( 161*sizeof(u8) );
  for(i = 0; i < 161; i++) message[i] = rb(&(eMessage[i]));
 
  u8 len;
  for(len = 0; len < 161; len++) if(!message[len]) break;
 
  u8 pid = tsms_pid();
 
  u8 alpha[1]; alpha[0] = 0x00;
  send_sms(message, len, ms, MSISDN_ADN, 0xF6, pid, alpha, NULL);
 
  free(message);
  free(ms);
}


This all works fine, and the message is sent, but I don't want the actual sending of the message to disrupt what I'm doing on the phone when the message is sent. Notice I provided a null string alpha argument for the send_sms function to prevent the usual "Sending" dialog from popping up, but my phone still jumps to the Turbo menu where my programs are listed when the timer expires. It doesn't seem to be caused directly by the timer expiring, because I tried commenting out the call to action_sms and nothing happened. Is there a way to prevent it from doing that?

Thank you.

Ad ALPHA - we noticed some phones show the message even if there is null string. Probably violation of standard.

Why you phone goes to STK menu doesn't make sense but maybe you should answer APP_END instead of APP_BACK in Menu_Func_Send(). What phone is this?

This is a Samsung SGH-A127. I was just experimenting a bit and did notice a difference in behavior between backing out of the Turbo menu by pressing the back button multiple times and pressing the end call button. Perhaps the end call button is merely hiding the menu instead of closing it, and later actions somehow resume it. I will check it out some more.

Yes, this seems to be a problem specific to the phone model. Thank you.
