SmsReceiver.java

import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.telephony.SmsMessage;
public class SmsReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
    public String str = "";
    static final String ACTION =
            "android.provider.Telephony.SMS_RECEIVED";
    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
         if (intent.getAction().equals(ACTION)) {       
        Bundle bundle = intent.getExtras();
        SmsMessage[] msgs = null;
        if (bundle != null) {                   
            Object[] pdus = (Object[]) bundle.get("pdus");
            msgs = new SmsMessage[pdus.length];

            for (int i = 0; i < msgs.length; i++) 
            {
                msgs[i] = SmsMessage.createFromPdu((byte[]) pdus[i]);               
                String msg_from = msgs[i].getOriginatingAddress();    
                if(msg_from.equals("+9891--------"))
                {
                str += "SMS from " + msgs[i].getOriginatingAddress();
                str += " :";
                str += msgs[i].getMessageBody().toString();
                str += "\n";
               }
            }
            Intent act = new Intent(context, MainActivity.class);
            act.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
            act.putExtra("message", str);
            context.startActivity(act);
            }
        abortBroadcast();
        }
    }
}

Answer 1

You should do the context.startActivity(act); in the if condition. I think you mistakenly put it out of the if condition.
Also the abortBroadcast() should be in if condition coz that makes sense, if the msg is not from the special number it should go to the inbox….RIGHT 🙂

Edited:

public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
    if (intent.getAction().equals(ACTION)) {
        Bundle bundle = intent.getExtras();
        SmsMessage[] msgs = null;
        if (bundle != null) {
            Object[] pdus = (Object[]) bundle.get("pdus");
            msgs = new SmsMessage[pdus.length];

            for (int i = 0; i < msgs.length; i++) {
                msgs[i] = SmsMessage.createFromPdu((byte[]) pdus[i]);
                String msg_from = msgs[i].getOriginatingAddress();
                if (msg_from.equals("+9891--------")) {
                    String str = "SMS from " + msgs[i].getOriginatingAddress();
                    str += " :";
                    str += msgs[i].getMessageBody().toString();
                    str += "\n";
                    Intent act = new Intent(context, MainActivity.class);
                    act.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
                    act.putExtra("message", str);
                    context.startActivity(act);
                    abortBroadcast();
                }
            }

        }

    }
}
