Sending mail with attachmen via mail without chooser

Question

I am sending mail via my app with this code:

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType("text/plain");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[] {"email@example.com"});
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "subject here");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "body text");

Uri uri = Uri.parse("file://" + file_name+".jpg");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uri);
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Send email..."));

This works just fine, but how can I do this without Intent.createChooser and do not let the user choose app for sharing and go directly to Gmail app, assuming each android phone have it.

You can used the following code to open whatever intent you want eg gmail, facebook, email etc..Simple in the type as used in code pass "gmail" if you want to open gmail, pass "face" if u want to open facebook

Intent intent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND); 
intent.setType("text/html");
List<ResolveInfo> resInfo = getPackageManager().queryIntentActivities(intent, 0);

if (!resInfo.isEmpty())
{
    for (ResolveInfo info : resInfo) 
    {
    if (info.activityInfo.packageName.toLowerCase().contains(type) || info.activityInfo.name.toLowerCase().contains(type)) 
    {
            intent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, htmlBody);
            intent.setPackage(info.activityInfo.packageName);   
            startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, getResources().getString(R.string.share_send_text)));
        }
}
