Set Default SMS App in android Without startActivity

Question

Is it Possible to set Default SMS application back to Messaging app in background or without using this code

 Intent intent = new Intent(Telephony.Sms.Intents.ACTION_CHANGE_DEFAULT);
                        intent.putExtra(Telephony.Sms.Intents.EXTRA_PACKAGE_NAME, "vnd.android-dir/mms-sms");
                        startActivity(intent);

No, the reason the Intent exists is so that the user has the final option of choosing their default SMS app.

You mean there is only one option to set default messing app from settings? user has to change from settings only we can not do it programmatically Without user confirmation ? – Naimish B. Makwana Nov 02 '15 at 06:55
That would defeat the purpose of a user chosen default app. – ianhanniballake Nov 02 '15 at 14:36
