Detecting MMS messages on Android

by

Detecting an incomming MMS message is easy, just put in broadcast receiver monitoring WAP_PUSH_RECIEVED events, as in…

<receiver android:name=".PushReceiver">
  <intent-filter>
    <action android:name="android.provider.Telephony.WAP_PUSH_RECEIVED" />
    <data android:mimeType="application/vnd.wap.mms-message" />
  </intent-filter>
</receiver>

Making sense out of what you get is a lot harder. I managed to decode everything I wanted from the WAP_PUSH_RECEIVED intent by cloning the PDU parsing code from the Mms app.

Retrieving the actual contents from the part files is what I am still working on, which is how I found this topic in the first place.
