No i am not getting any "Message Received" message... Actually onReceive method of MessageReceivedReceiver is not geting executed... — Kalpesh Patel, Apr 25 '12 at 10:51
you have mentioned your broadcast receiver class to your project android manifest file? — Dinesh, Apr 25 '12 at 10:55
No, but is it needed as i have created nested broadcast receiver class and i am registering my receiver dynamically... but will try as u said... — Kalpesh Patel, Apr 25 '12 at 10:58
@Dinesh i need to register receiver dynamically.. but i did as you said but it also didnt worked.. can you suggest me something else.. — Kalpesh Patel, Apr 25 '12 at 11:12
your try for send sms via one emulator to other and it's not working within your code ? — Herry, Apr 25 '12 at 12:17
@Kaplesh: I don't think u need to register in manifest file as your are doing register receiver. If I am not wrong your Broadcast receiver is inside your activity class get it out of there man. — drulabs, Apr 25 '12 at 19:01

Thanks for your efforts, but declaring my Receiver class ouside main Activity class also didnt worked... i think there is some problem in host name... – Kalpesh Patel Apr 25 '12 at 12:12
Thanks a lot for your help... there was a mistake from my side... insted of giving permission for RECEIVE_SMS i had given permission of READ_SMS... Silly Mistake :D – Kalpesh Patel Apr 25 '12 at 12:52
