How to use SMS content provider? Where are the docs?
- by Mark
Hi,
I'd like to be able to read the system's SMS content provider. Basically I wanted to make an SMS messaging app, but it would only be useful if I could see past threads etc.
It seems like there's a content provider for this, but I can't find documentation for it - anyone know where that is?
Thanks

Ok I found a way to get the sms inbox provider, and I just dumped all the column names in that provider, looks like this:
Uri uriSms = Uri.parse("content://sms/inbox");
Cursor c = context.getContentResolver().query(uriSms, null,null,null,null);
// column names for above provider:
0: _id
1: thread_id
2: address
3: person
4: date
5: protocol
6: read
7: status
8: type
9: reply_path_present
10: subject
11: body
12: service_center
13: locked
I'm just piecing this together from random threads I find around the net, I'm really wondering where this is all documented (if at all)?
Thanks again
