Hello,

To begin with, I apologize for posting on both this forum and Android
developers. I first posted there but realized this would a more
appropriate place.

I am writing a Security-oriented application for Android that is
supposed to detect abuse of SMS sending.

In my work I encountered the problem of not being able to detect
outgoing SMSs sent not through the use of conventional applications,
i.e. merely by using SMS Manager's sendTextSMS method.

The conventional SMS applications add the contents of the sent SMS to
the SMS Provider after they send it but I can assume that malicious
applications will not do that... and neither will they provide the
pending intents to the sendTextSMS method to be broadcast upon
sending/
delivery.

My question is, is there any way I can detect the sending of the SMS
without relying on the SMS provider?

Thanks in advance,
Uri Kanonov
