Android :: SMS Receiver Not Working
Dec 22, 2009
I'm trying to write a simple application that attempts to receive SMS messages and handle them. I've followed several tutorials but I'm getting nowhere, when I send a SMS to the emulator, the Intent never seems to get fired.I'd really appreciate some guidance with what's going wrong. I'm just getting into Android development but I think I have my head wrapped around (most of) it. While monitoring the emulator's logcat, the log events never come up, and debugging breakpoints are never hit, so I have a feeling it's somewhere in my intent filter.

I have a SMSReceiver class that needs to pass the phone number and message to another class. Which works but when I call that class I need the function to read preference to compare if it needs to execute another function.

When using G Maps, it says Waiting for Location almost indefinitely.I reinstalled the G Maps updates.Then I downloaded GPS Status to see if a different app could use the receiver and it had similar problems. After 20 minutes or so, it got a lock onto the satellites but not only did it display our location as several hundred feet off, it didn't track our movements while we were in the car going 60 mph.Apparently, it got a lock, but only momentarily or with very poor reception.So I have all of the typical forum questions.
1) Has this been reported before for the D2?
2) Is there anything I can do fix this before doing a hard reset?

trying to create a broadcast receiver which responds to system events and change system settings. I don't need any interaction from the user so I don't need an activity and have been trying to do everything through the manifest file. I've put a log event into my onReceive method but it never logs anything so I'm presuming my method is never called. I've tried this with both the 1.5 and 1.6 SDKs. I was hoping somebody could have a look at my code please and let me know if there are any problems.

How much accurate are the coordinates received by the GPS antenna in the reality?I'm using the emulator but it doesn't work well with coordinates too much close is there nobody that have tested an application based on the package "Location" in a real device(I don't have a real one yet..) and knows how to answer me?

Can Android use Bluetooth GPS Receivers in its various applications, such as MyTracks, CardioTrainer, Google Maps etc, is there an app I can install to allow this, or does the functionality have to be supported by the relevent software application (MyTracks, GoogleMaps etc) itself.If the latter, are there any navigation programs I can install which support this?

A WAP PUSH (Broadcast)receiver basically doesn't need any UI. It is a silence application which handles the Push messages based on actions/ mimetype without needing any intreaction with user, I've tried to test it in a SMS receiver by removing the Activity from the project and it stopped receiving the SMS messages. My question: Does all android applications "MUST" define a activity? Is there a way to hide it?

Any experts on AlarmManager out there?I've got something weird going on.The basic code to set my repeating alarm works fine. I can close my app and the alarm will continue to run like clockwork every five minutes. It works fine only if I set it in the app and then close the app.I've got a registered BootReceiver for re-registering the repeating alarm. I know it fires on boot b/c the log message clearly shows it is firing and re-setting the repeating alarm in question for the same frequency. But the AlarmManager is not firing.Basically, the nearly identical code for setRepeating() fires when set from the app and continues to run when the app is closed, so I know my AlarmReceiver is functioning, but the AlarmManager is either not broadcasting this alarm or my receiver doesn't work from an alarm set in the boot receiver.

I am making a widget that needs a broadcast receiver, like the one in com.example.android.apis.appwidget.ExampleBroadcastReceiver. However, the example defines Intent.ACTION_TIMEZONE_CHANGED in the manifest, but there are some that do not allow this. For example, Intent.ACTION_TIME_TICK says "You can not receive this through components declared in manifests, only by exlicitly registering for it with Context.registerReceiver(). "
So I removed the manifest declarations and tried replacing the AppWidgetProvider.onEnabled function that was in the example with a call like the following: context.registerReceiver(myReceiver, new IntentFilter(Intent.ACTION_TIME_TICK));
(where "myReceiver" is an instance of the receiver I want.) However, when I try to run the code, I get the following error:
Unable to start receiver...android.content.ReceiverCallNotAllowedException: IntentReceiver components are not allowed to register to receive intents.
Any way to get this broadcast receiver working from a widget?

I wish to listen to android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED. However I am not getting the broadcast intent, if I specify com.test.BootBroadcastReceiver in the manifest. When I change this value to simply BootBroadcastReceiver, then I am getting the broadcast intent.
<receiver android:name="BootBroadcastReceiver" android:enabled="true">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
My package in the manifest file is:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.test"
And the BootBroadcastReceiver resides in this package. What is the reason behind this?

I have an application that uses an extended Broadcast Receiver class inside the Activity. I have the extended Broadcast Receiver class as a member variable of the Activity class. But it looks like the receiver references keep changing between its construction and 'on Receive' method call. I would like to understand this better. Here are some details. public class MyEventReceiver extends Broadcast Receiver

I have here two applications in two different projects in eclipse. One application
(A) defines an activity
(A1) which is started first. Then i start from this activity the second activity
(B1) in the second project
(B). This works fine.
Unfortunately, the message is never received. Although the method in activity A1 is called, i never receive an intent in B1.

I created a BroadcastReceiver and configured it with an android.provider.Telephony.SMS_RECEIVED action filter so it is called everytime the phone receives a text.Is there some event/action or other way for my application to be notified whenever the phone sends a text (preferably independent of the application that sends it)?So far the only option I see is to poll the content provider for content://sms/sent which doesn't even give me all sent texts because applications can choose not to put it there.

I'm writing a toy car-navigation app for Android, mostly to learn the Android SDK. While testing my application, it worked fine for a few hours. Then, suddenly, it reported my position as being in a town 100km south of my real position, travelling at 300km/h. I was in fact travelling at approximately 120km/h. I changed application to Google Maps, and it also showed the same erroneous position and approximate velocity. Since I was driving a car in dense traffic at high speed, for safety, I decided not to start fiddling with the phone any more, and just put it away. The next time I took it up (maybe 15 minutes later), the position and velocity was correct again. I will add diagnostics to my program to show the reported accuracy of the GPS-fix.
I have a few questions: Is this a hardware/firmware problem in android phones? (I have a HTC Hero) Is this a known failure mode of GPS-receivers? What could make the GPS-receiver report such inaccurate positions? I had another GPS receiver in the car (a Garmin car navigator). Could this receiver have interferred with the HTC Hero unit?

The symptom: I have a broadcast receiver that listen to sms, when a sms is received, i call an activity to display. It works all fine if the screen is on and not locked. But when screen is locked, and as soon as i received the sms, the activity popup for a second then disappeared and I use the code to unlock the screen.
getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_TURN_SCREEN_ON);
getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_SHOW_WHEN_LOCKED | WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_DISMISS_KEYGUARD);
I think it might be the competitions with phone default sms program (the sms default program shows a notification only). I am wondering is there a way to set priority to broadcast receivers or even the activity that receiver stared, to avoid the conflicts between multiple receivers. or set orders to execute one by one? I have tried to thread.sleep my receiver for a second, still not working.

The documentation for sendOrderedBroadcast() describes the function as following: "Broadcast the given intent to all interested BroadcastReceivers, delivering them one at a time to allow more preferred receivers to consume the broadcast before it is delivered to less preferred receivers."
How do we specify which receiver is preferred, such that the preferred receiver gets the first shot at handling the intent?
To illustrate, say I have 2 possible activities, ActivityA and ActivityB, to handle them intent. If both are alive, I would like ActivityA to always handle the intent in favor of ActivityB.
