Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ushahidi/SMSSync/issues/173

Independent of whether I include sent_to as a payload keyword in the Sync URL configuration, the server side script always shows sent_to as parameter and with no value. When I do a print_r($_REQUEST, true) the PHP script shows that sent_to is being passed as a parameter and is blank. Adding or removing sent_to as a payload keyword has no effect.

Phone details are:
Make: Sony Ericsson
Model: LT15i
Android Ver: 2.3.4

Make: Micromax
Model: A27
Android Ver: 2.3.5

Hello,

I looked into this issue and I found what was the problem. Function getLine1Number() from class TelephonyManager which is used for it don't work if your phone number is not register in your mobile. Only solution I can think of is to add option to set or change this number in settings. @eyedol What do you think about it?

@rafalsliwinski yes getLine1Number() only gets the phone number if it's registered on the SIM card. That could work but we need to verify the number the user enters. Like send a code as SMS ? Lot of work I think.

I'm thinking we drop support for sent_to as unique_id which is manually set on the phone can be used to serve the same purpose sent_to was serving.

Let's just replace the value returned by getLine1Number with the unique_id value if getLine1Number returns NULL or empty string. Over time we will depreciate the sent_to variable. And document this change in website-src. Specifically under developers page.
