I was wondering if there is a way to receive an SMS from Android emulator, perhaps on a TCP port. I know it\'s possible to send SMS to emulator by opening a TCP socket on th
telnet localhost
didn't work for me.
This worked for me:
Run an emulator and click "More." That's three horizontal dots to the right of the emulator window.
Then click "Phone".
Type a phone number from which you'd like to receive a text and the text. Press "Send message"
Now you see your message.
