Reading SMS from particular number

[srivatsan.d]

Hi All,

I want to listen incoming SMS from a particular number and bypass it to my application rather than to native Device Inbox.

I am able to capture the SMS with particular message body, but how to capture SMS from particular number?

This is how i used for listen SMS with particular message tag.

User::LeaveIfError(iReadSocket.Open(iSocketServ, KSMSAddrFamily,
			KSockDatagram, KSMSDatagramProtocol));
	_LIT8 (KMathTag, "^~^/" );
	// set match pattern
	TSmsAddr smsAddr;
	smsAddr.SetSmsAddrFamily(ESmsAddrMatchText);
	smsAddr.SetTextMatch(KMathTag); // put KNullDesC8 to catch all messages

	// bind the socket
	User::LeaveIfError(iReadSocket.Bind(smsAddr));

Here i am using smsAddr.SetTextMatch(KMathTag); to get the message, but i need to get message from a particular number.

Please some one help me..

Thanks,
Srivatsan D

That is not supported. However if you capture all messages, you can filter the ones originating from the number in question.

Thanks wizard_hu_,

One more clarification, if i capture all the message and pick the message which i required what would happen to other messages? will it be sent to native device Inbox ? My requirement is to bypass the message of my interest alone and rest should be sent to Inbox.

Please give your valuable suggestions.

Thanks,

There may be some more elegant way for that, but delivering the messages manually into the Inbox is always possible. It has been discussed some times already, search for inbox sms for example. The threads saying something about "from:" are usually discussing how to put SMS into the Inbox.

Thanks a lot wizard_hu_... Ya delivering SMS to Inbox makes sense. Once again thanks for your valuable suggestions.
