Send text file attachment with an email

I am trying to attach a text file in order to send it with an email
but whenever i open the Email app it says that the file does not exist Help Please
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
i.setType("text/plain");
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL , new String[]{"musabyahya1005#gmail.com"});
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "subject of email");
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT , "body of email");
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse(directory+"/data.txt"));
try {
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(i, "Send mail..."));
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException ex) {
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "An Error Happened ", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}

If you are trying to send files with email, make sure that they are on a public accessible location and that you tell it that it is a file you want to send. Use this code as an example.
Intent emailIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
emailIntent.setType("message/rfc822").putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[]{"fake#example.com"}).putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Mail subject").putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "lalalala");
String targetFilePath = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getPath() + File.separator + "tmp" + File.separator + "test.txt";
Uri attachmentUri = Uri.parse(targetFilePath);
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file://" + attachmentUri));

how to send .apk file from sdcard via email itent in android?

i want to send .apk file from sdcard via email intent but not getting attachment.
see below codei try this code but not working for me..
Intent emailIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
emailIntent.setType("text/plain");
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL,
new String[] { "email id" });
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT,
"Test Subject");
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,
"go on read the emails");
Log.v(getClass().getSimpleName(),
"sPhotoUri=" + Uri.parse("file:/" + "/sdcard/obb/rr.apk"));
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM,
Uri.parse("file:/" + "/sdcard/obb/rr.apk"));
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Send mail..."));
This code says could not attachment and not getting mail.

Try to change the type of your attachment as below:
emailIntent.setType("application/zip");

thanks for help i got the mail using this one.
Intent emailIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
emailIntent.setType("*/*");
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[]{"email id"});
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT,"Test Subject");
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "From My App new 1");
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file:///mnt/sdcard/rr.apk"));
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Send mail..."));

Don't use hard coded /sdcard/ there is no guarantee that the SD card will have that path
Instead change
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file:/" + "/sdcard/obb/rr.apk"));
to
Uri fileUri = Uri.fromFile(new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath() + File.separatorChar + "obb" + File.separatorChar + "rr.apk"));
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, fileUri);
Also change
emailIntent.setType("text/plain");
to
emailIntent.setType("application/zip");

Android send email with text and images

I want the user to be able to send an email from inside my android app, so I have
Intent emailIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, emailaddress);
emailIntent.setType("plain/text");
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,message);
startActivity(emailIntent);
but I don't know what I need to do if I want to have 2 .png images attached to this email also.
Thanks,

Try out this one.
But for me it is only working on a real device.
Intent emailIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, emailaddress);
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, message);
emailIntent.setType("image/png");
ArrayList<Uri> uris = new ArrayList<Uri>();
uris.add(Uri.parse("android.resource://" + getPackageName() + "/" + R.drawable.file1));
uris.add(Uri.parse("android.resource://" + getPackageName() + "/" + R.drawable.file2));
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uris));
startActivity(emailIntent);

Try this:
Intent iShare;
iShare = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
iShare.setType("image/png");
//below you trying to send the images path it always doens have to be a
//image in the drawable u can get the captured image or in the gallery :)
iShare.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file://"+fn.getPath()));
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "Username: " + usernames + "\nClinic Number: " + clnumber + "\nClinic Name: " + clname + "\nBranch: " + spnnr);
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(iShare, "Share"));
try {
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(ishare, "Send mail..."));
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException ex) {
Toast.makeText(secondpage.this, "There are no email clients installed.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
