I'm working on an app that will auto reply with an pre-coded SMS to the sender. Sending a message is easy. My problem is I can't seem to get the message and get the sender's address/number. I have searched over and over and over for this answer. All I need is to know is how to get the sender's address and only the address. Nothing else is needed. Everything that I've tried to reference just throws a ton of code at me that I don't need. Can anyone help me?

I am assuming that you are receiving the sms through the sms broadcast. You can extract the sender address from the intent. Example:
