Description

It works fine on Android emulator, but not on a real phone. I have enabled all the sms permissions and restrictions, but still not able to detect the sms. My phone is running on Xiaomi hyperOs and android 15.

Please help!

Contributor guide

Research direction
Check if the SMS broadcast receiver is registered correctly on real device, especially on Xiaomi HyperOS which may have custom restrictions for background broadcasts. Compare with emulator behavior and test with a different device to isolate the issue.
