<div style="direction:ltr;font-size:10pt;font-family:Tahoma">Afaik, if you try to send sms, it opens default messaging application where you can enter the sms. And same for outgoing phonecalls, opens phone application where you can make a
call.<br>
<br>
Reasoning behind it is that as those call create a phone bill to end user, then applications are not allowed to secretly bypass default applications. But dont take my word on it, its just AFAIK on store QA process.<br>
<br>
But ofcourse if you enable developer mode you can do what ever you want. I'm not familiar with that side of middleware, so someone else can comment more.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Hi,
<div><br>
<div>Does anybody know about a possible module and its status in Sailfish/Qt-5 that corresponds to Harmattan Qt Mobility Messaging so that it would be possible to send and receive SMSs (which is essential in my app) through Qt/QML on the Jolla phone? <br>
</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks,</div>
