Programming is hard.

You’ll never have finished learning programming, so learn to enjoy learning.

Sorry about the delay for fixing this.

Uri SMSURI = Uri.parse("content://sms/inbox");
String[] projection = new String[]{"_id", "address", "body", "date"};
Cursor cursor = null;
try {
	cursor = getContentResolver().query(SMSURI
			, projection
			, null //selection
			, null //selectionArgs
			, null); //sortOrder

	if (cursor != null && cursor.moveToFirst()) {
		do {
			int    id    = cursor.getInt(cursor.getColumnIndex("_id"));
			String address = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex("address"));
			String body = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex("body"));
			String date = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex("date"));

			SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy - HH:mm:ss");
			date = formatter.format(new Date(Long.parseLong(date))); 

			Log.d(Constants.LOGCAT, "id: " + id + "  address: " + address + "  body: " + body + "  date: " + date);

		} while (cursor.moveToNext());
	}
} finally {
	if (cursor != null) {
		cursor.close();
	}
}

Remember to set the properly permissions in android.manifest

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_SMS" />

I would like to translate my apps (sms2cal and Drink-O-Meter) to other languages than spanish and english.

Do you want one of this apps in your language? write me at pep _@_ spanishcoders.com or leave me a comment in this entry.

• Drink log font color changed for better readability.
• Added notification on each drink addition.

Some users are reporting that when they goes to preference screen no calendar are shown in order to select the calendar where the entries will be uploaded.

Having the calendar synchronized with your google calendar account in android general preferences is MANDATORY. Other way, the app (sms2cal and Drink-O-Meter) won’t work.

Option to choose where to put the content of the sms in the calendar entry; two options:

• Place the sms csontent in the title, right after the name/number of the sender;

• Place the sms content in the description;

There have been users reporting problems using the app in a mobile synced with more than one google account. When the list of calendars is displayed in the preferences all calendars of all synced accounts are displayed. The sms will be backuped to the account of the calendar you have selected.
