What's the difference? You read a message to check the data contained therein. — Michael Petrotta, Aug 31 '12 at 06:55

You can use contains() method to check if specific word is present in the sms or not.

 if(str.contains("LOG"))
  {
    // Perform your task here.
   }

str.contains("LOG") so in this code Log is a specific word? – Christina Ayers Aug 31 '12 at 06:56
`LOG` is value which you want to check in your incoming sms.You can put it anything. – Akshay Aug 31 '12 at 06:58

Simply use `switch case` if it satisfies the condition/case then start the respective activity. :) – Akshay Aug 31 '12 at 07:34
