Support dual SIM SMS
Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=399537

Braindump:
Sending outgoing SMS via the correct SIM card might be possible by setting an appropriate srcAddress in smsManager.sendMultipartTextMessage

https://developer.android.com/reference/android/telephony/SubscriptionManager.html looks also relevant here, in particular with SmsManager.getSmsManagerForSubscriptionId

In the SMS app we could show a virtual device per SIM card in the device combobox

I'll give this task a try. Remove my assignment if I don't complete it within this month.

The mobile app already sends the subscription id of the sms message with commit abcb6cbf332bc8c145c2338ab1bd5d882a4e327d . All that's left is to interpret the new field on the KDE side.

We'd appreciate if someone with Dual-SIM can test the above MR's.

MR's have been merged. I'm not doing the device combobox for now.
