How to remove SMS logs programmatically?

Question

I have been trying to remove all the logs on the device through this code:

 contentResolver.delete(CallLog.Calls.CONTENT_URI,null,null);

But it only deletes Call Logs, and SMS logs still remain undeleted. How delete all the logs including SMS logs? Any help would be appreciated..!!

If I was using your program and I would have realized that you are tampering with my SMS log (I can imagine no application which should read my SMS') I would grab a rotary hoe and tousle your dog with it. Are you sure you want to have a mob of angry users ready to lynch you? No offense this was just theorycrafting. — Adam Arold, Sep 16 '13 at 12:26

You can remove all smslog using this way.

getContentResolver().delete(Uri.parse("content://sms/"),null,null);

for Deleting SMS from your smslog need uses permission declared in your manifest

 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_SMS"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_SMS"/>
