I am facing a major issue in one of my android application project. I need help in that issue.
My question is:
I have a simple screen with a edittext and ok button. User needs to enter the mobile number (in the edittext) of the user trying to install the application on his mobile. Now once we click ok, a message is sent to the number that is entered in edittext.
User Inboxbox message contains the message sent from the application. Now i need to verify if the FROM address in the message and the mobile number entered in application(Edittext) matches. How can i achive that.
how can i compare the data entered in the application with my mobile number.
Note: Application is being installed in same mobile.
Please guide me in this issue.
Thanks.

You're looking for a number verification system and you already have a service that sends out messages? Then one option is to use the "whatsapp approach" and send a PIN code in the message that the user will then type in to the app?
