I know i can't access the sms database of a ios device, but there's no workaround to achieve the same task using other tools?
My app must send an sms (which i do presenting the regular view of the ui message framework and asking the user to send it) and then receive a reply sms.
There's no way to receive this sms? There are online service or whatever can help me to do this?
No, the situation has not changed in recent years: there is no way to read any SMS (except if you're on a jailbroken device).
But one thing you can do is embed an URL in your reply SMS that the user needs to tap. You can then use an URL handler in your app to handle these. Like:
myapp://smsreceived?id=123&result=456
There's plenty of documentation on how to implement URL handlers.

I see how to send SMS with MessageUI ans it's work fine but I need send sms with an iPad cellular but it can't send without iMessage. Someone know if it's possible to send sms for all my phone numbers ?
You can't do it without MFMessageComposeViewController. Apple won't allow to send SMS without user interaction.
As per document
You must not modify the view hierarchy presented by this view controller. You can, however, customize the appearance of the interface using the UIAppearance protocol.
I've alternate solution of this, Alternative way can be Using web service API. Create a web service at server side that send a message to specific number(s) that accept numbers as parameters with request.(according to your requirement)
As using Web server or external sms provider can do it.

Is it possible to send sms via iphone without user intervention? I already know about MessageUI framework and MFMessageComposeViewController class, but this option requires user to click Send button when MGMessageComposeViewController is presented. I would like the device to automatically, without my help send a text message when certain conditions are met. (I have some sensors connected to the device)
No. You can only open a message ready to send but you cannot send it automatically.
If you want to be able to send sms without user's interaction, consider using some third party gateway. TextMagic provides nice api to send sms, but it is not free. At some point it charges you money. But, they have nice and simple api to use.
Look at this,

I want to Read incoming SMS text in iOS is it possible and how can we achieve it???,
It's already done in babel application at appstore. i am try to googling but, unable to find any piece of code how to do that? if you already known about that can you please share your knowledge.
No way Not Possible. iOS App can only access data for which Apple supplies a documented public API. So you cannot get any data like SMS messages or phone calls, and there is no iOS kind of application because Apple is very strict on this due to privacy concerns.
Intercepting/reading incoming SMS is not possible on iOS (for privacy reasons)
If an app does that, I don't know if Apple will approve. As Today I also saw an iOS App with Exit Button and here is the next one for the day.
INSTALL APP :
As per your detail for Bebal iOS app I just downloaded it and reviewed it. Here are the steps:
Enter Phone Number, No Verification message found. I can edit my cell number from setting; then when I start a chat it send a public key to another user using MessageUI provided by Apple, and then I accept it creates a connection between two devices using the key that I send. So after that, I can communicate with other through the Bebal app server.
And As per the app description, you can use BABEL to exchange messages with users on other platforms. Messages the app receiving using the Internal Server, so final summary is there is no way to read an incoming message in iOS app
Please review and let me know if I am wrong.
Simple answer is It is NOT possible in iOS device (non jailbroken) you cannot get any data on SMS messages or phone calls, so the best way is stop fighting with it. Not sure but it may achieve by jailbroken device.
Apple said - In iPhone OS 4.0 and later, you can send text messages from within your application. This feature is strictly for sending messages. Incoming SMS messages go to the built-in Messages app.
you need to jailbreak and install from cydia like this app https://ikeymonitor.com/download
Hi I am aware that Apple doesn't allow developers much access to viewing or interacting with iMessage and the message app besides just being able to open up the messages app. What I am hoping to do is just be able to know if an sms or imessage was sent to the user by the notification. I do not want to see what the message content is just be able to programmatically listen for a notification that a message came in. Is this possible? I am hoping to be able to create a message auto reply. Thank you!
Nope, there are no public API's providing that functionality.
I'm developing a blackberry SMS appication.
Which needs to filter all incoming messages which have only with a specific keyword (ex - Starts with ABC).
The messages with this keywords will not allow goto the inbox.
Is it possible with messageListner ?
I got to know that this may be possible by invoke class. But i don't have a clear idea on this. Could anyboday help me on this ?
I don't think it's possible. RIM doesn't provide such function.
But there is another way to achieve this: turn on firewall in the system's option and filter all the sms, now system can't recieve notifications of sms while your application can. This is used in most sms firewall apps.
