Q: 

change the sender number when sending sms

Hi,

Is it possible to change the sender number when sending an sms from my android program ?

Thanks

+3  A: 

The simple answer is no.

Why??

well thats because the way SMS works. You never send your number, its the service provider which makes sure that senders number is sent.

Thanks, but what about hiding the number as if the user has turned on "anonymous" setting in his phone ? Is it possible ?
