Error in receiving SMS using Broadcast receiver

Question

Hello,

I'm trying to receive SMS using broadcast receiver. MySMSReceiver :

import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.telephony.SmsMessage;
import android.util.Log;

public class MySmsReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
    /** Tag string for our debug logs */
    private static final String TAG = "MySmsReceiver";

    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        Log.i(TAG, "Recieved a message");
        Bundle extras = intent.getExtras();
        if (extras == null)
            return;

        Object[] pdus = (Object[]) extras.get("pdus");

        for (int i = 0; i < pdus.length; i++) {
            SmsMessage message = SmsMessage.createFromPdu((byte[]) pdus[i]);
            String fromAddress = message.getOriginatingAddress();
            String fromDisplayName = fromAddress;

            Log.i(TAG, fromAddress);
            Log.i(TAG, fromDisplayName);
            Log.i(TAG, message.getMessageBody().toString());

            break;          
        }
    }
}

and added in Mainfest file

<receiver android:name=".MySmsReceiver" android:enabled="false">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.provider.Telephony.SMS_RECEIVED" />
            </intent-filter>
        </receiver>
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_SMS" />

but when I run this app and send a sms using emulator it shows following logs in logcat

10-12 00:14:53.082: VERBOSE/Telephony(1032): getOrCreateThreadId uri: content://mms-sms/threadID?recipient=9898989898

Suggest me what could be the reason.

I got this problem solved. I was running in an AVD which was created Google API as runtime and may be some of the classes are not available in that API, so on changing AVD runtime to Android 2.2 it works fine.
