I want to create an app where if the user tries to open the sms inbox then he must be asked to enter the saved password, basically setting password for built-in inbox application,
There are so many application in Google market where we can set password for some particular private contacts but not for the whole inbox as per my knowledge,but if it is available then how it is done?
Is it possible: to starting an activity where authentication is done if inbox is selected or intended to open

It's Not Possible.
Because think if Admin of phone have not set any authentication for his phone.like password asking or draw pattern or any other.Then what will you do at that time for security ? Your inbox will not secure.
For that you have to think other logic which can be secure which you actually want .ok

Basically "No", you cannot control lifecycle of other applications without using hacks, bugs or rooting.
