Hello Kostya, Please help me if you have any idea where to decrypt the encrypted sms message. I have encrypted the sms under onclick method. But I don't know where to decrypt it at time of delivery to the receiver. I am using android emulator not on real phone devices. Please let me know your idea. Thanks!.
