Reading SMS messages from Inbox

I'm trying to read the SMS messages from the user's inbox, but I only get the Number, as cur.getString() allways returns NULL to me, After an Index of 2...

Here is my code :

        TextView view = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView1);

      Uri uriSMSURI = Uri.parse("content://sms/inbox");
      Cursor cur = getContentResolver().query(uriSMSURI, null, null, null,null);
      String sms = "";
      while (cur.moveToNext()) 
      {
          sms += "From :" + cur.getString(2) + " : " + cur.getString(11)+"\n";
          Log.i("MyApp", "A " + cur.getString(2) + " " + cur.getString(3));
      }

      view.setText(sms);

I've checked, and cur.getString(3) and above, allways returns null to me...

What is my error?

Thanks!

Edit : thanks to simas, I've seen that the body field that contains the message data, is field number 12 in the Cursor (cur), and not 11. so changing it from 11 to 12 fixed it. Thanks simas!

try this:

cur.moveToFirst();
if (cur != null) {
    do {    
       sms += "From :" + cur.getString(2) + " : " + cur.getString(11)+"\n";
           Log.i("MyApp", "A " + cur.getString(2) + " " + cur.getString(3));        
    }while(cur.moveToNext());
}
