I understand that the user should be given option to choose an application, and why. But it is the requirement of the client that the application should use the messaging application that came with the phone OR the default messaging application to send the mms. /And i am kind of stuck here.
Also, in the chooser, applications like evernote, facebook, gmail, etc show up, that are capable of ACTION_SEND action. To exclude them, what should be done? I look into intent filters?
