Can not send email from android apps

Question

I want to send an email from android without user interaction. I use this code Send email from android

It's running good on my Samsung phone(which version is 2.3.2 and API label 9). But the same app is not working in my Walton phone (which version is 4.2.2 and API label 17). I use minsdk 8 and targetsdk 19. Here is my manifest file

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        package="com.hiddencamera"
        android:versionCode="1"
        android:versionName="1.0" >

        <uses-sdk
            android:minSdkVersion="8"
            android:targetSdkVersion="19" />

         <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
        <uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.camera" android:required="false" />
        <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
        <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
        <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />

         <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
      <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
        <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
        <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_INTERNAL_STORAGE" />
        <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />


        <application
            android:allowBackup="true"
            android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
            android:label="@string/app_name"
            android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
            <activity
                android:name="com.hiddencamera.Main"
                android:label="@string/app_name" >
                <intent-filter>
                    <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                    <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
                </intent-filter>
            </activity>
        </application>

    </manifest>

You can refer to the following code. It works fine.

public class Email extends Activity implements View.OnClickListener {

    EditText personsEmail, intro, personsName, stupidThings, hatefulAction,
            outro;
    // Your mail address here
    String emailAdd;
    Button sendEmail;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.email);
        initializeVars();
        sendEmail.setOnClickListener(this);
    }

    private void initializeVars() {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        sendEmail = (Button) findViewById(R.id.bSentEmail);
    }

    public void onClick(View v) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        //Your mail addresses needs to be converted to Array/List before passing, so you can append more mail_id's too
        String emailaddress[] = { emailAdd };
        String message = "Your mail content here ";

        Intent emailIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
        emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, emailaddress);
        emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Subject of the mail");
        emailIntent.setType("plain/text");
        emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, message);
        startActivity(emailIntent);

    }

    @Override
    protected void onPause() {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        super.onPause();
        finish();
    }

}

In Manifest just remember to add the permission for Internet once only. You have mentioned it twice.Though it do not have any effect I thunk, but still you should be careful with everything.
