I think you couldn't send SMS from Emulator to real device because it doesn't have any number. I have added the code below which will be helpful to send sms from real device.

    PendingIntent pi = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0,
            new Intent(this, RoadMoveActivity.class), 0);    
    SmsManager smsManager = SmsManager.getDefault();
    smsManager.sendTextMessage(sms_phonenumber, null, sms_message, pi, null);

Its worked for me

The emulator its not a real phone, don't have a number or sim card so it can't send or receive sms from external devices. From cmd telnet you can use sms send phonenumber

EDIT :

 private SmsMessage[] getMessagesFromIntent(Intent intent) {
    SmsMessage msgs[] = null;
    Bundle bundle = intent.getExtras();
    try {
        Object pdus[] = (Object[]) bundle.get("pdus");
        msgs = new SmsMessage[pdus.length];
        for (int n = 0; n < pdus.length; n++) {
            byte[] byteData = (byte[]) pdus[n];
            msgs[n] = SmsMessage.createFromPdu(byteData);
        }
    }
    catch (Exception e) {
        Logger.getDefault().error("Fail to create an incoming SMS from pdus", e);
    }
    return msgs;
}
