sms storage in database in android

[Nitee Shah]

Hello,

I am trying to block a SMS. I am able to block message but not able to
store that blocked SMS in database from a broadcastReceiver. Inserting
a record from service is not working. Is there any way?? I wrote
DBHelper and DAO classes for it.

Thanks and Regards,
Nitee Shah

Write a separate thread for it.

Don't access DB from service.

Android Docs say,

A Service runs in the main thread of its hosting process—the service does not create its own thread and doesnot run in a separate process (unless you specify otherwise). 

So it is going to block the main thread of the application which started it.

I have a simple advice for you, use IntentService for doing n/w IO, file IO or other

CPU intensive or time consuming operations. 

IntentService is a subclass of Service and provides added benefits.

  Good things about IntentService:

1. It runs in its own thread, so you dont have to implement any threading.
2. It stops itself once the work is finished.
