I want to unset whether my SMS app as default app in android. I am following this tutorial:

http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2013/10/getting-your-sms-apps-ready-for-kitkat.html

I can set my SMS app as default SMS app by the following code:

Intent intent = new Intent(context, Sms.Intents.ACTION_CHANGE_DEFAULT);
intent.putExtra(Sms.Intents.EXTRA_PACKAGE_NAME, context.getPackageName());
startActivity(intent);

But I want to unset my SMS app as default app. How can I do that?

Here One point is to be noted : I have installed messaging classic app . From that app , I can unset my sms app as default . When this app is set as default and I tap on the SMS disabled textview The following pic is appeared .

I have tried the following :

getPackageManager().clearPackagePreferredActivities(getPackageName());

But the app is not unset as default app . What can I do ?
