Are you posting the url through mobile browser? After you enter the url and go further, what is the url (specially the querystring values)? Paste the querystring values here. The url you posted under "Send by SMS" link seems to be incomplete

Sorry, I've pasted the url in my original post but Codeproject has formatted url automatically here you are: <a href="sms:?body=TextText">Send By SMS</a> <a href="sms:+123456789?body=TextText">Send By SMS</a> The hyperlink is in my website page, when user clicks on the hyperlink, it open a new sms message with body of "TextText" for example. It works fine on other tested mobiles, but htc

Did you talk to mobile website guys if there is any known issue with HTC mobile?

You are getting invalid recipient, that means the issue is with the mobile number. My rough guess is the "+" sign. I think, in htc, + is encoded to somewhat different character before sending it to payment gateway. Check your service provider development guy, whether + is is a must. I have used several service provider and I see + is not mandatory. You can go with the isd code + mobile number. Something with the "+" character.

Thank you very much for reply.. But I've tried without "+" and without mumber at all, but the problem still exist

without number doesn't makes any sense. Put something like 9198XXXXXXXX instead of +91..... check your service provider developer reference

I tried before with a test number, but also doesn't work But even if it works, the goal is to create a message without number :(
