Tracking a SMS sent from an application

Possible Duplicate:
I am afraid: SMS send from within an app seem impossible to detect?

Sending an SMS from an app in Android is really easy:

SmsManager sms = SmsManager.getDefault();
sms.sendTextMessage(phoneNumber, null, position, pi, null);

But it seem that all these SMS are "invisible" and the user will never know an SMS has been sent!

-> All SMS applications (Go SMS, Handcent, stock app, etc..) does not show these SMS.

-> These sent SMS does not seem to fire an Intent.

SO, my question is rather simple: how can I track all these SMS and find if an application is malicious?

I don't want to wait till the end of the month to check my bill, it will be too late!

Solution

  • Without any other solutions, the answer seem to be "NO, there is no solutions".

    That's a big security issue, in my mind.
