private Contact contact;
ImageButton buttonSend;
EditText textSMS;

     protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.editor);

    // bind GUI components
    this.name = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.editor_name);
    this.list = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.editor_list);

    // check if contact id is valid
    this.db = new Database(getContentResolver());
    int contactId = getIntent().getIntExtra(CONTACT_ID, NO_CONTACT_ID);
    this.contact = this.db.getContact(contactId);
    if (this.contact == null) {
        finish();
    }
    this.name.setText(this.contact.getName());

    // pre-load information about all account types
    AuthenticatorDescription[] authTypes = AccountManager.get(this).getAuthenticatorTypes();
    for (AuthenticatorDescription authDesc : authTypes) {

Do not use recipient name to send message , use mobile number to send message .

Get contact number from contact list and use that contact number instead of name in sendTextMessage function.
