Android send SMS messages from emulator using Telnet

Hi,
I have started to develop first Android project and will write some notes during development process.
The first note is sending sms messages from terminal.
So, There are a few steps to send messages from emulator using terminal:
  1. Start emulator (The emulator has to be started becaue you need to know port to connect). For starting emulator go to the Andriod SDK and AVD Manager->Virtual Devices->Start
  2. Start telnet. Type in console window
       1: telnet

  3. Open telnet connection to the emulator port. Type in telnet window

       1: o localhost 5554
    , where localhost name of computer where emulator is running and 5554 it is port of emulator running.

  4. Try to send message. Type in telnet window

       1: sms send 5556 Test Message
    , where 5556 is phone number, Test Message is text of message.
And that is all …
