Read SMS Messages on Android phone with .NET MAUI

Question

Hi,

Following .NET MAUI code from this link https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/1432733/access-and-read-all-sms-on-android-phone-with-net?page=1&orderby=Helpful&comment=answer-1367159#newest-answer-comment

I am unable to run the code on VS 2022 version 17.9.6 with .NET MAUI version 8.0.20 as I am receiving the following errors:

"The type name 'Net' does not exist in the type 'Android'"

"Android' does not contain a definition for 'Net'"

"The type name 'Database' does not exist in the type 'Android'"

I would also like to get the "service_center" value from the SMS and also if it I will able to get all the Columns available in the SMS.

Thanks in advanced for any help,

AG
