I am providing you a detailed desc to do that in different case(with contacts, text shares etc).

Manifest Entry for you Message Activity

Now we have made a processIntentData method as shown below to be applied in Message Activity:

private void processIntentData(Intent intent)
{
    if (null == intent) return;

    if (Intent.ACTION_SENDTO.equals(intent.getAction())) {
        //in the data i'll find the number of the destination
        String destionationNumber = intent.getDataString();
        destionationNumber = URLDecoder.decode(destionationNumber);
        //clear the string
        destionationNumber = destionationNumber.replace("-", "")
            .replace("smsto:", "")
            .replace("sms:", "");
        //and set fields
        mTxtDestination.setText(destionationNumber);

    } else if (Intent.ACTION_SEND.equals(intent.getAction()) && "text/plain".equals(intent.getType())) {
        //in the data i'll find the content of the message
        String message = intent.getStringExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT);
        //clear the string
        mTxtBody.setText(message);
    }
}

Use as shown in Message Activity:

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    ...

    mTxtDestination = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.actsendsms_txtDestination);
    mTxtBody = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.actsendsms_txtMessage);

    ...

    //executed when the application first runs
    if (null == savedInstanceState) {
        processIntentData(getIntent());
    }
}

The attached snap for results:
