How to use SMS content provider? Where are the docs?

Question

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

Answer 1

Unfortunately the content provider for Sms and Mms (android.providers.Telephony) is not part of the public API at this moment. Until it is, you can define your own constants using this as a template.
