Improve Error Handling in SmsBroadcastReceiver and SmsLocationReporter Classes #3

Description

@Lucin-ee

Files like SmsBroadcastReceiver or SmsLocationReporter could benefit from more error handling for potential runtime exceptions.

Specific areas to address include:

Exception Handling in System Service Methods: Methods that access system services (such as TelephonyManager, LocationManager, and AudioManager) may throw exceptions if services are unavailable or permissions are missing. Wrapping these calls in try-catch blocks will help handle issues gracefully.
Null Checks for Retrieved Data: Several method calls in both classes assume non-null return values (e.g., getLastKnownLocation(), getAllCellInfo(), and PDU parsing in SmsBroadcastReceiver). Adding null checks for these return values will prevent NullPointerException errors.
Compatibility and Deprecated Methods: Some methods (such as abortBroadcast) are deprecated on certain API levels. Ensuring compatibility with newer API levels by adding conditional checks or alternative approaches will make the application more future-proof.
