Question

How to receive broadcast when a user sends SMS from his Android phone? I am creating an application which is taking track of sent SMS and calls. I am done with the calls part, please help me with the SMS. Note that sms are sent by the phone not any application.

  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
            setContentView(VIEW_RESOURCE_ID);

            SendSmsObserver smsObeserver = (new SendSmsObserver(new Handler()));
            ContentResolver contentResolver = this.getContentResolver();
            contentResolver.registerContentObserver(Uri.parse("content://sms"),true, smsObeserver);
        }


    public class SendSmsObserver extends ContentObserver {

            public SendSmsObserver(Handler handler) {
                super(handler);
            }

            @Override
            public void onChange(boolean selfChange) {
                super.onChange(selfChange);
                // save the message to the SD card here

                 Log.d("sent sms", "one text send");

            }
        }

I found the answer

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
                super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
                setContentView(VIEW_RESOURCE_ID);

                SendSmsObserver smsObeserver = (new SendSmsObserver(new Handler()));
                ContentResolver contentResolver = this.getContentResolver();
                contentResolver.registerContentObserver(Uri.parse("content://sms"),true, smsObeserver);
            }


        public class SendSmsObserver extends ContentObserver {

                public SendSmsObserver(Handler handler) {
                    super(handler);
                }

                @Override
                public void onChange(boolean selfChange) {
                    super.onChange(selfChange);
                    // save the message to the SD card here

                     Log.d("sent sms", "one text send");

                }
            }
