How can I send an SMS directed to an application? My app looks for messages with a particular prefix and then must consume it. Other applications (including the Messaging app) should not get the SMS messages directed to my app.
I have an SMS broadcast receiver that can get all the messages and processes the ones only with the particular prefix. After processing the SMS, if I do abortBroadcast(), then it throws a runtime exception. Anyway, aborting the SMS in the middle of a broadcast is not a good idea as it can cause other problems. The issue is that the SMS targeted to my app is also passed to the Messaging app. The SMS directed to my app must never go to Messaging app since it is odd to show that message in the ticker text of the status bar notification and to see it in the SMS inbox. Android doesn't seem to have the concept of a port number to listen for incoming SMS. I am sure there are apps out there that use SMS for communication. Any ideas, android team? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
