I've to develop an android application and one of its activity is:
- Detecting New MMS messages
- Get Sender number to check if it is the number i want to receive from it in my application
- Getting (txt + image) from MMS
- Showing (Txt + Image) data in ListView
well, I found a code that might help me in the 2nd and 3rd tasks but i tried it and test it on my mobile and it is work but it did not retrieve anything just black interface!!!
Maybe the problem that i didn't understand some part of this code,
I wrote my comment above each statement that I couldn't understand it please answer my comments that inside the code and help me to understand what i am missing hope to get ur responses early. and please be clear.

Note: everyTime i search on sending or receiving MMS i got this link , But until now i do not get it
Should i use repo and Git? and what is repo and Git? why should i use in MMS?
should i use it when send and receive MMS? if yes for why? can i use this code
content://mms-sms/conversations
instead of repo and git?
