You need to remove the <data> element from the SMS Receiver's <intent-filter>.

<receiver
    android:name="com.cyber_dove.MessaGen.sms.SMS_DELIVER_ACTION"
    android:permission="android.permission.BROADCAST_SMS" >
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.provider.Telephony.SMS_DELIVER" />
    </intent-filter>
</receiver>

And you're missing the <intent-filter> tags in the composing Activity.

<activity android:name="com.cyber_dove.MessaGen.sms.ACTION_SENDTO" >
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" />
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.SENDTO" />

        <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />

        <data android:scheme="sms" />
        <data android:scheme="smsto" />
        <data android:scheme="mms" />
        <data android:scheme="mmsto" />
    </intent-filter>
</activity>
