Thread: simple sms app for android

hi there,
I'm required to create a simple sms app for android which will be able to send and receive sms. In addition I'm required
to apply vigenere cipher such that no sms sending without encryption and no reading before encription.

I know about the encryption stuff. My problem is the sms app. im not good at xml but I know java.
Here is my idea of solution:
there should be a gui on which user can put sms and from which he/she can read incoming sms. the there should be communication between the GUI and the device so as services like sending sms and retrieving sms from inbox can be possible. then there should be
a mechanism for encrypting sms before sending and decrypting on receiving.


Need help on:
If one knows where I can find a free source code of app similar to above and which need minor changes especially on encryption
which is what we are studying, please direct me.

Or if its possible to write the above code in pure Java (without xml which I don't know), give me framework.

It is possible to do without xml. The use of xml leads to less code writing overall.
My suggestion to you is to do some android/xml research. A single line of xml can be the same as several statements worth of java syntax.

Now I have created the app and its working fine. But I dont know how to make it signaling when a new sms is received,
Any help on playing sounds in android

Sure. There are examples available on the web with a quick browse of some search results.
If you have problems with a sample code or your own code post it here with your question(s).
