[android-developers] Re: How to get all sms messages on phone
In my app I didn't need to make the distinction between sent and received SMS messages. I suggest you to investigate the cursor object inside the debugger to understand how to make this distinction. - Ali Chousein http://www.codeproject.com/KB/android/PayGol-Android.aspx http://weatherbuddy.blogspot.com | http://twitter.com/weather_buddy http://geo-filtered-assistant.blogspot.com https://marketplace.cisco.com/apphq/products/994 On Mar 7, 6:27 am, Farhan Tariq wrote: > So this cursor would point to a collection of sms messages?

SmsManager does not do what you are interested in. Android SDK does
not officially support retrieving the received and delivered SMS
messages. But there are always backdoors. In the past I used the
statement below for retriving all (both received and delivered) SMS
messages:
Cursor cur = getContentResolver().query(Uri.parse("content://sms"),
null, null, null, null);
But once again, beware that this is not officially documented and it
can change without any notice. If you use it, you use it on your own
risk.
