@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
  TextView view = new TextView(this);
  Uri uri = Uri.parse("content://sms/inbox");
  Cursor c= getContentResolver().query(uri, null, null ,null,null);
  startManagingCursor(c);
  String sms = "";
  if(c.moveToFirst()){
      for(int i=0;i<c.getCount();i++){
   sms= c.getString(c.getColumnIndexOrThrow("body")).toString();
  // sms=c.getString(c.getColumnIndexOrThrow("address")).toString();

      }
      c.close();
      c.moveToNext();

Try this:

String[] sms=new String[c.getCount()];

if(c.moveToFirst()){

      do{
         sms= c.getString(c.getColumnIndexOrThrow("body")).toString();

       } while(c.moveToNext());

}

You must change 

 sms= c.getString(c.getColumnIndexOrThrow("body")).toString();

to

 sms+= c.getString(c.getColumnIndexOrThrow("body")).toString();

Try this:

if(c.moveToFirst()){

      for(int i=0;i<c.getCount();i++){

         sms= c.getString(c.getColumnIndexOrThrow("body")).toString();
         c.moveToNext();
      }
}

You will have to move to next record for each iteration of for loop.then only,you will get all messages there.Here,in for loop,after you get String sms,you can use that sms to show up somewhere.Each time,it will grab next sms into it!

Hope you got the point!
