Easy. If you have name, then that means the name was found from Contacts. If you want the number, first search name from Contacts and then get related number.

Enjoy,

import logs
 
l=logs.sms(mode='in')
for i in range(len(l)):print l[i]["number"]

#This prints the numbers of all SMSs in the inbox. For the most recent one, do this:

print l[0]["number"]

See this article for more info about using logs.

Rishabh,

If the number isn't in your contact list, you will get the number using the Inbox module and not the name.

If you have a person's number in the phone book then only his name will come as the SMS address, otherwise it is the number that comes for an unknown number.

I assume you've solved this problem, judging by your post in this thread.

It comes as default extension with Python 1.4.2 Onwards.
So you do not need to install it separately as an extension.

Just Download new version of PyS60

l= logs.sms(mode='in')

and then check the length of l by len(l) it shows it to be 0.

This would mean you would have no incoming SMS in the Log. Try to have an incoming SMS in your Log and then try your CODE.
