How to send/receive broadcast between service and activity

I need to send message from SmsReceiver Class to My Main_Activity and can't do it. I tried out very much and searched But... .

Here is my code

SmsReceiver.java

public class SmsReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {

    // Get the object of SmsManager
    final SmsManager sms = SmsManager.getDefault();

    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {

        // Retrieves a map of extended data from the intent.
        final Bundle bundle = intent.getExtras();

        try {

            if (bundle != null) {

                final Object[] pdusObj = (Object[]) bundle.get("pdus");

                for (int i = 0; i < pdusObj.length; i++) {

                    SmsMessage currentMessage = SmsMessage.createFromPdu((byte[]) pdusObj[i]);
                    String phoneNumber = currentMessage.getDisplayOriginatingAddress();

                    String senderNum = phoneNumber;
                    String message = currentMessage.getDisplayMessageBody();
                    Log.i("SmsReceiver", "senderNum: "+ senderNum + "; message: " + message);

                    Intent intent1=new Intent(context, MainActivity.class);

                    intent1.putExtra("m",message);
                    context.sendBroadcast(intent1);
                } // end for loop
            } // bundle is null

        } catch (Exception e) {
            Log.e("SmsReceiver", "Exception smsReceiver" +e);

        }

    }    
}

MainActivity.java

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
               final EditText intext=(EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText2Inputtext);

          BroadcastReceiver mysms=new BroadcastReceiver() {
            @Override
            public void onReceive(Context arg0, Intent arg1) {
                String sms=arg1.getExtras().getString("m");
                intext.setText(sms);

            }
        };
    }
}

Your code to send and register broadcast receiver not correct. Send broadcast:

Intent intent = new Intent("your_action_name");
intent.putExtra(....);
sendBroadcast(intent);

receive:

BroadcastReceiver mysms=new BroadcastReceiver() {
      @Override
      public void onReceive(Context arg0, Intent arg1) {
          String sms=arg1.getExtras().getString("m");
          intext.setText(sms);

      }
};
registerReceiver(mysms, new IntentFilter("your_action_name"));

and remember to unregister when destroy your activity.

Instead of context.sendBroadcast(intent1); you should try context.startActivity(intent1);

try this 

Intent i = new Intent(context,Main.class);
i.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
context.getApplicationContext().startActivity(i);
