How to read incoming sms, its going by default in handset inbox, how do i get sms....

[patil_mayur]

Hello,
I want to receive sms by my J2ME Application, i am using default example coming with NetBeans IDE but when i tried it on my Sony Erricson W550 and Nokia 6600, it directly goes to handset inbox instead of my application. Is there any way to get newly received sms into application, and then read that sms. Its SMS not MMS, so just text will matter,
I m in trouble due to this problem, please save me, your replies will be very helpful for me.....
Thanks in Advance

You can only receive SMS/MMS messages which are sent to the same port which your MIDlet is listening to. You cannot receive/intercept normal messages. They will always go to the inbox directly

Harttie,

I have a commercial application that intercepts all incoming sms's and depending on their content sorts them accordingly. If there is no port to listen to all incoming sms, how would you envisage these guys accomplished this?

The probably didn't write it in Java. In other words, it is probably a native C++ Symbian app, and you're using it on a Symbian based phone. Right?

Probably right, thanks :-)

Hi,
I was experimenting on sms message for N72 device.
And I have done very well, I can read message all body, can get sender number and Bla Bla Bla.
If you need than I can send you the code which I used.
Look at here;
CMsvEntry* serverEntry = iSession->GetEntryL( aEntryId ); // current entry
CleanupStack::PushL( serverEntry );
TMsvEntry entry = serverEntry->Entry(); // currently handled message entry
//serverEntry->DeleteL(aEntryId);
//CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(serverEntry);

entry.SetNew( ETrue );
entry.SetUnread( ETrue );
entry.SetVisible( ETrue );
const TDesC& descp = entry.iDescription; // iDescription will have only first 32 characters from the message
TBuf8<40> MessageArrived;
MessageArrived.Copy(descp);
serverEntry->ChangeL( entry ); // commit changes Rajat
iSmsMtm->SwitchCurrentEntryL(aEntryId);
iSmsMtm->LoadMessageL();
CSmsHeader& header = iSmsMtm->SmsHeader();
CRichText& richText = iSmsMtm->Body();
TPtrC s3 = iSmsMtm->Body().Read(0);
TDesC& s2 = s3; //_L8( iSmsMtm->Body());
TPtrC from = header.FromAddress();
const TDesC& phoneNumber = from;
_LIT(s1, "Rajat");
CAknInformationNote* informationNote = new ( ELeave ) CAknInformationNote;
informationNote->ExecuteLD( s2 );
CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy( serverEntry );

I hope It will useful to you to overcome from your problem.
Thanks
Bye
Regards Rajat.
