Question

In my application I need to read sms coming from only a number, and when i receive it I need to set it as read automatically, without setting it in the sms android application, but from my app. How can I do?
Thanks!

Answer 1

A short example:

Uri uri = Uri.parse("content://sms/inbox");
Cursor cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(uri, null, null, null, null);
while (cursor.moveToNext()) {
  // Retrieve sms
  // see column "address" for comparing

  // Then update the sms and set the column "read" to 1
}
