Open email app programmatically in android for new update

How can I open a device email to send an email on the new update of android? it's showing a list of applications with support text/message/html/plain with the following code?
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType("text/plain");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[]{context.getString("email_to")});
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, context.getString("email_subject"));
context.startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, context.getString("email_body")));

This Intent will work For Email client with mailto Uri:
try {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO);
intent.setData(Uri.parse("mailto:")); // only email apps should handle this
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[]{"example.yahoo.com"});
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "App feedback");
startActivity(intent);
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException ex) {
ToastUtil.showShortToast(getActivity(), "There are no email client installed on your device.");
}

I have found the following code to open the email app programmatically use the following code. I hope this may solve your problem.
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,Uri.parse("mailto:"+"email_to"));
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "email_subject");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "email_body");
startActivity(intent);

Search for linkedin app in android via intent

I am using intent to get the list of all apps i can post text to. However, linkedin is not appearing in that list. Do i need to do anything extra for linkedin?
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType("text/plain");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "dcsd");
package= mContext.getPackageManager();
List<ResolveInfo> appTargets= package.queryIntentActivities(shareIntent, 0);
I am able to get all other apps like Facebook, Twitter except LinkedIn?
What could be the possible reason?

Code is
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType("text/plain");
String shareBody = "https://developers.facebook.com/docs/android/share";
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TITLE,"Share From Test App");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,shareBody);
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "hello");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Share With"));

Add this to the intent:
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "dsvs");

How to send multimedia messages with android intent?

I'm trying to send an multimedia message(with an image) through an intent.How should I build the intent?
I've tried the code:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType("image/png");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.fromFile(new File("/sdcard/documents/aaa.png")));
I can select mms app(Textra) from chooser dialog to send the image. But the chooser dialog lists other apps(such as Google Keep).
Then I tried this:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setData(Uri.parse("sms:"));
Only mms apps appears now.But I don't know how to attach my image.
Is there any solution for that?

try this may help,
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setClassName("com.android.mms", "com.android.mms.ui.ComposeMessageActivity");
intent.putExtra("sms_body", "write some text here");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.fromFile(new File("/sdcard/documents/whatever.png")));
intent.setType("image/*");
startActivity(intent);

Try this way,hope this will help you to solve your problem.
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.putExtra("sms_body", "some text");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.fromFile(new File("/sdcard/documents/aaa.png")));
intent.setType("image/png");
startActivity(intent);

intent to share text to email clients (only email clients)

String value = text.getText().toString();
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[]{"test#test.test"});
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "subject");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, value);
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Send Email"));
this code runs, but it show a list of applications like notepad (and other notepad app), whatsapp (and several chat app).
I need a list of only email clients. I done a long search but the code is always same.

try the following code with content type:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType("plain/text");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[] { "some#email.address" });
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "subject");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "mail body");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, ""));
Edit1: Check out this post for sending email directly without opening the email client.
