I'm trying to write a broadcast receiver that gets called for every SMS text message that comes in. All the published code to do that (that I can find) either has been deprecated or doesn't work.
My code fails at install time, with this message in the log (twice):
06-17 10:15:59.316 396 413 W ActivityManager: No content provider found for permission revoke: file:///data/local/tmp/locator.apk
06-17 10:15:59.316 396 413 W ActivityManager: No content provider found for permission revoke: file:///data/local/tmp/locator.apk
My manifest file looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0">
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="7" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_SMS"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_SMS"/>
<application android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher" android:label="@string/app_name">
<receiver android:name=".SmsReceiver" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.provider.Telephony.SMS_RECEIVED" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
</application>
Would be glad if anyone could point out what I'm doing wrong. I'm beginning to suspect that there is no API for reading incoming SMSs.
My source code looks like this:
package com.example;
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.telephony.gsm.SmsMessage;
import android.util.Log;
public class SmsReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
private static final String SMS_RECEIVED = "android.provider.Telephony.SMS_RECEIVED";
private static final String TAG = "locator";
@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Log.i(TAG, "Intent recieved: " + intent.getAction());
if (intent.getAction() == SMS_RECEIVED) {
Bundle bundle = intent.getExtras();
if (bundle != null) {
Object[] pdus = (Object[]) bundle.get("pdus");
final SmsMessage[] messages = new SmsMessage[pdus.length];
for (int i = 0; i < pdus.length; i++) {
messages[i] = SmsMessage.createFromPdu((byte[]) pdus[i]);
}
if (messages.length > -1) {
Log.i(TAG,
"Message recieved: " + messages[0].getMessageBody());
}
}
}
}
}
