messages
I can understand why this functionality was removed, but it's really
frustrating that I wasted several hours looking for a "dead" api.
Unless I'm missing something, the android documentation doesn't even
list it as deprecated.
Anyways, I had some success by registering a ContentObserver to the
content://sms/ ContentProvider. Its not officially supported but it
works, and it's not that hard to monitor SMS messages as they are
received and sent without stepping on the functionality of the default
Messaging app.

Correct, there is no way to receive SMS messages and stick to the SDK,
unfortunately.

I wasn't aware that this intent no longer exists. I was planning to use it
from a server to contact a phone whenever something relating to a users
interests changed. I want to use this instead of polling ever x number of
minutes. Is there another way of implementing a server to phone
communication?
