Hi everyone,
I'm trying to make my B4A app eligible to be selected as the default SMS app on Android (KitKat and above). I've added all the required permissions, receivers, service and intent-filters, but my app still doesn't appear in the list when another SMS app (like Google Messages) prompts the user to choose a default, and it's not listed in Settings > Apps > Default apps > SMS app.
The official Google Messages and Samsung Messages apps show up fine, but mine doesn't.
Could someone please share a minimal working B4A sample project (or just the full Manifest code + any required services/receivers) that:
I don't need full messaging functionality — just the bare minimum to make Android consider it a valid SMS app.
Any help or a small zip of a working example would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

- Successfully appears in the default SMS app selection dialog
- Is recognized by Telephony.Sms.getDefaultSmsPackage()
- Can be set as the default SMS app
