Try this:

String shareText = "Enter the dummy text to share";
        Intent intent_share = new Intent();
        intent_share.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
        intent_share.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, shareText);
        intent_share.setType("text/plain");
        Intent.createChooser(intent_share, "Share via");
        startActivity(intent_share);

                    Intent share = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
                    share.setType("text/plain");
                    share.addFlags(Intent.FILL_IN_CATEGORIES);

                    share.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_CC, "Title Here");

                    String message = " Your message text"


                    share.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, message);

                    startActivity(Intent.createChooser(share, "Share With"));
