Read all SMS from a particular sender

try this way:

                    cur = null;  
                }  
            } else {  
                smsBuilder.append("no result!");  
            } // end if  
            }
        } catch (SQLiteException ex) {  
            Log.d("SQLiteException", ex.getMessage());
