In BREW 2.0 and prior, an application that has registered for NMASK_TAPI_SMS_TEXT notification will intercept the SMS, and the native UI may not be given a chance to process it. This behavior in BREW 2.0 and prior is OEM dependent and varies per handset. On handsets in which BREW intercepts the SMS message, the SMS message will not appear in the Phone’s Inbox, and the application will fail True BREW Testing. There is no work-around for this issue. It is therefore important, on handsets in which SMS messages are intercepted by BREW, that applications do not register for NMASK_TAPI_SMS_TEXT notifications.
